Anvaya

For Wedding Guests

Last updated: May 10, 2026

Why you got this notice

You are reading this because a couple is using Anvaya to plan their wedding and has entered some of your details — typically your name, and depending on what they need, your email, phone number, mailing address, dietary preferences, and your RSVP. You have not signed up for an Anvaya account.

This page is the short notice that the European General Data Protection Regulation (Article 14) requires whenever a controller receives personal data about you from someone other than you. The full Privacy Policy has the long version.

Who is responsible for your data

The couple is the data controller. They decide what to enter about you and what to do with it (sending an invite, counting meals, building a seating chart). If you want them to stop processing your data or delete your record, ask them first — the fastest path is the person who invited you.

Anvaya is their service provider (data processor). We host the database, send the messages, and run the planning features the couple triggers. Anvaya is operated by Automorphism LLC, a Delaware (USA) limited liability company. For privacy questions you can also write to us directly at privacy@anvaya.love.

What we hold about you

Depending on what the couple chose to enter, your record may include:

  • First and last name
  • Email address and / or phone number
  • Mailing address (street, city, state, postal code, country)
  • Side (bride / groom / mutual), tags, free-text notes the host wrote
  • Group or household assignment
  • RSVP status, dietary preferences, and meal selection — per event
  • Plus-one allowance and any plus-one details
  • Random RSVP / save-the-date tokens used in the personal link the host sends you
  • Messages you exchange with the couple through Anvaya (SMS, WhatsApp, or email)
  • Gift records the host added against your name

What we do with it

Strictly the wedding-planning purposes the couple chose: showing your record back to the couple and the family members they invited, sending you the invitations and reminders the host triggers, tracking your RSVP and meal choice, generating the seating chart, and powering the planning AI features the host uses.

We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or use it to train AI models.

Where the data came from

Your details came from the couple. They may have typed them in themselves, imported them from a contacts CSV, or had a family member you know enter them. If you want to know exactly which fields came from which source, ask the couple — or write to us and we will tell you what we can see in our system.

Who else sees your data

  • The couple and the family members they invited as co-planners (e.g. parents, siblings) at the appropriate access level.
  • External AI assistants the couple has authorized (such as ChatGPT or Claude) when they connect via OAuth and ask the assistant to read or modify guest data.
  • Anvaya's subprocessors — the cloud and communications providers we use to run the platform (AWS, Cloudflare, Twilio, Resend, Google, OpenRouter routed to Google Vertex, PostHog, Open-Meteo). The full list is in our Privacy Policy, Section 4.

How long we keep it

We keep your record while the couple is using Anvaya. When the couple deletes the wedding (or we delete it on their behalf), your record and any messages you exchanged are removed. Encrypted database backups age out on a rolling 7-day window after that.

Where the data is held and sent

Anvaya's primary database is in the United States (AWS). When the couple sends you an SMS, WhatsApp message, or email, that transmission flows through Twilio (SMS / WhatsApp) or Resend (email). For transfers from the EEA, UK, or Switzerland to the United States, we rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and the UK Extension (the “UK Data Bridge”), with EU Standard Contractual Clauses as a backup for any subprocessor that is not certified.

Your rights — and how to exercise them

Under the GDPR, the UK GDPR, the California Consumer Privacy Act, and similar laws around the world, you can ask to:

  • Know what we hold about you
  • Correct anything that is wrong
  • Delete your record (right to erasure)
  • Object to further processing
  • Restrict processing while a dispute is being resolved
  • Receive a copy of your data in a portable format

To use any of these rights, write to privacy@anvaya.love. We respond within 30 days regardless of whether the host responds to us. When you ask us to delete, we notify the host so they can answer any questions; if they have not responded within 14 days, we delete the record on their behalf and let them know it's done.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your data-protection supervisory authority. EU residents can find their authority at edpb.europa.eu; UK residents can complain to the ICO. California residents have similar rights and an appeal mechanism described in the main Privacy Policy.

Stopping messages

SMS. Reply with STOP (and equivalents such as UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, QUIT, END, OPT OUT). Twilio — the platform that delivers our SMS — honors the opt-out at the carrier level and stops further SMS from that sender to your number.

WhatsApp. Reply asking the host to stop, or write to us at privacy@anvaya.love. Anvaya does not currently auto-detect WhatsApp opt-out keywords; we will pass the request to the host and remove the record on their behalf if they do not respond within 14 days, as described under Your rights above.

Email. Use the unsubscribe link or instruction at the bottom of the message where one is present, reply asking the host to stop, or write to privacy@anvaya.love.

Children

Anvaya is built for adults. If your child is on a guest list and you would like the record removed, write to privacy@anvaya.love. We will delete the record without requiring you to verify parental status, because the data did not come from the child.
