Privacy Policy

Fondays ("Fondays", "we", "us") helps you collect, organize, and print photos from weddings, parties, trips, and other events shared with the people who were there. This policy explains what information the Fondays app collects, how we use it, and the choices you have — for everyone who creates an account, joins an event pool, or orders a printed product.

Fondays is operated by Ondravan Private Limited (CIN U62011TN2026PTC195416), 19/35 Mount Road, Little Mount, Saidapet, Chennai – 600 015, Tamil Nadu, India. We are the data fiduciary responsible for the information described here.

We collect the information needed to run shared photo pools and fulfil physical orders:

• Account details — when you sign in with Google or with Apple, we receive your name, email address, and profile photo from that provider, and store an identifier linking your Fondays account to it. Fondays never sees or stores a password.
• Photos & media — images and videos you upload to an event pool, along with the caption and dimensions we need to display them. Fondays does not ask for or record your device's location.
• Event & pool data — pool names, dates, guest lists, roles (host/member), and invites you send or accept.
• Order & shipping details — items ordered (prints, photobooks, framed pieces), the shipping address and contact phone number you provide for delivery, and order status, when you buy a physical product.
• Purchase records — which subscription or event pass you hold and when it expires. Payments are processed by Apple, Google, or our payment gateway; Fondays never receives or stores your card details.
• Country — used to show the right prices and currency. We take it from your app store account where available, otherwise from your device settings or the approximate region of your connection.
• Device & usage data — app version, device type, a push notification token if you allow notifications, and server logs of requests to our API that help us fix bugs and prevent abuse.

Photos you add to a pool are visible to the other members of that pool, as set by the host's pool settings. Your photos remain yours — we don't sell them, license them, or use them to advertise Fondays.

"Photos of me" works from tags, not from your face. When you upload a photo you're recorded as a subject of it, and people in a pool can be tagged in photos. Fondays does not use facial recognition and does not collect or process biometric data.

You can remove your own uploads, leave a pool, or ask a host to remove a pool at any time from within the app.

We use the information above to:

• Operate event pools — uploading, organizing, and displaying photos to the right members.
• Fulfil orders — printing and shipping photobooks, prints, and framed pieces to the address you provide.
• Send essential notifications — pool invites, order updates, and account security alerts.
• Improve Fondays — understand which features are used, and diagnose crashes.
• Prevent abuse — detect spam, fraud, or violations of our terms.

We do not sell your photos or personal information to advertisers.

We share information only where it's needed to run the service:

• Other pool members — see photos and names as governed by the pool's settings.
• Print & fulfilment partners — receive the specific images, shipping address, and contact phone number needed to produce and deliver your order, and nothing else.
• Apple and Google — process subscription and event pass purchases made in the app, and confirm to us what you bought.
• Razorpay — processes payments for physical orders. They handle your card or UPI details directly; we receive only a confirmation.
• Cloudflare — stores and serves your photos from object storage on our behalf.
• Google Firebase — delivers push notifications to your device.
• Legal requests — if required to comply with law or to protect the rights and safety of our users.

We keep pool photos and account data for as long as your account or pool is active. If you delete your account, we remove your personal data and uploaded photos within 30 days, except where a copy is still needed to complete an order already placed, or where longer retention is required by law — Indian tax rules, for instance, require us to keep records of completed purchases.

Our Account deletion page sets out exactly what is erased, what is kept, and how to make the request.

Our servers and database are hosted in India. Photos are stored on Cloudflare's object storage and served through its global network, which means copies may be cached in other countries to load quickly wherever you are. Our processors are bound by contract to protect your data and use it only for the services they provide us.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, and to withdraw consent you've given. You can manage most of this directly in the app under Me, or by contacting us below. You can also turn off notifications at any time from your device settings.

To delete your account and photos, see Account deletion.

If you're in India and aren't satisfied with how we've handled a request, you can raise a grievance with our Grievance Officer at privacy@fondays.com. We respond to grievances within 30 days.

Photos and account data are encrypted in transit, and access to production systems is limited to people who need it to operate the service. No system is perfectly secure, and we continually review our practices as Fondays grows.

Fondays is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has created an account or been added to a pool without appropriate consent, contact us and we'll remove it.

We'll update this page when our practices change, and update the "Last updated" date above. If a change is material, we'll let you know in the app before it takes effect.
