Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

Who we are

Recan HQ operates the recanRSVP service at recanhq.co.uk. We are the data controller for personal data collected through this service.

If you have any questions about this policy or your personal data, contact us at privacy@recanhq.co.uk.

What data we collect

Event organisers:

  • Email address and password (hashed) used to create and manage your account
  • Account and session identifiers used to keep you signed in across supported Recan organiser services
  • Event details you enter (names, dates, sections, questions)

Event guests:

  • Name and email address (provided by the organiser when adding you)
  • Your RSVP responses: attendance choices, answers to event questions, names of party members
  • Photos uploaded via the Snap feature, if you choose to use it

Why we collect it

  • To provide the RSVP service — sending invite links and recording responses
  • To allow organisers to manage guest lists and plan their events
  • To send you your personalised RSVP link by email, if provided
  • To support shared organiser login, account management, and navigation across Recan-operated services such as recanRSVP and recanSNAP

Our lawful basis for processing is legitimate interests (operating the RSVP service) and, for sending emails, consent (your email was provided to receive your invite).

Shared organiser account data

Recan operates both recanRSVP and recanSNAP. Where we support a shared organiser login, certain organiser account data may be used across those services.

This may include your organiser ID, email address, role, parent or sub-account relationship, session records, and subscription or billing status where needed for authentication, admin access, account ownership, or feature access.

Event content remains product-specific. For example, RSVP guest lists and responses are managed within recanRSVP, while guest-uploaded media is managed within recanSNAP unless a feature explicitly connects the two.

How long we keep it

Guest personal data — including names, email addresses, and RSVP responses — is automatically deleted 30 days after the event date. After this point, responses are anonymised and cannot be linked back to you. The event record itself (date, headcounts) may be retained by the organiser for their own records.

Organiser account data is kept until the account is closed.

Third parties

  • Email provider (SMTP): Used to deliver RSVP invite emails to guests. Your email address is passed to our mail server for delivery only.
  • Snap photo service: If you upload a photo via the Snap feature, it is stored by our photo hosting provider.

We do not sell or share your data with any other third parties, and we do not use it for advertising.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate data
  • Ask us to delete your data
  • Object to or restrict how we process your data

To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@recanhq.co.uk. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies to make this service work. See our Cookie Policy for details.
