Sharing & Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:

Service providers (processors)

  • Stripe — payment processing. Stripe is PCI DSS Level 1 certified. Your card data flows directly to Stripe and never passes through our servers. Stripe Privacy Policy →

  • Google Analytics — anonymous, aggregated website analytics. We have enabled IP anonymization. Google Privacy Policy →
  • Email service provider — for transactional emails such as project confirmations and invoices.

Legal requirements

We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, prevent fraud, or ensure the safety of others.

Business transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the successor entity. We will notify you via email and/or a prominent notice on our website at least 30 days before such a transfer takes effect.

All third-party service providers are bound by data processing agreements and are contractually prohibited from using your data for any purpose other than providing services to us.

California Residents — CCPA / CPRA Rights

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) grants you the following rights:

Right to Know (Access)

You have the right to request that we disclose: (1) the categories of personal information we have collected about you; (2) the categories of sources; (3) the business or commercial purpose for collecting it; (4) the categories of third parties with whom we share it; and (5) the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you.

Right to Delete

You have the right to request deletion of personal information we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions (e.g., completing a transaction, legal obligations, or security purposes).

Right to Correct

You have the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.

Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing

We do not sell personal information, nor do we share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. You therefore do not need to opt out. If this practice changes, we will update this policy and provide a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link on our homepage.

Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information

We do not collect or process sensitive personal information as defined by the CPRA beyond what is strictly necessary to provide the services you have requested.

Right to Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA/CPRA rights. We will not deny services, charge different prices, or provide a different quality of service based on your exercise of these rights.

How to Submit a Request

To submit a verifiable consumer request, contact us at support@wevyst.com with the subject line “California Privacy Request.” We will respond within 45 days. If we need more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension (up to 90 days total). You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf; we will require written proof of authorization.

Shine the Light (California Civil Code § 1798.83)

California customers may request information about disclosures of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not make such disclosures. To make a request under this law, email us at support@wevyst.com.

EEA & UK Residents — GDPR Rights

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you have the following rights under the GDPR (and UK GDPR respectively):

  • Right of access (Art. 15) — obtain a copy of your personal data and information about how it is processed.
  • Right to rectification (Art. 16) — request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Right to erasure / “right to be forgotten” (Art. 17) — request deletion of your data where there is no compelling reason for continued processing.
  • Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18) — request that we limit processing in certain circumstances.
  • Right to data portability (Art. 20) — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format and transmit it to another controller.
  • Right to object (Art. 21) — object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing at any time.

  • Rights related to automated decision-making (Art. 22) — not be subject to solely automated decisions that significantly affect you.

International data transfers

Our primary service providers (Stripe, Supabase) may process data in the United States. Where we transfer personal data outside the EEA or UK, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place — including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission, or reliance on adequacy decisions where applicable.

How to exercise your rights

Submit requests to support@wevyst.com with the subject line “GDPR Data Request.” We will respond within 30 days (extendable by two further months for complex requests). We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.
