Privacy Policy

Who We Are

Toastmaster.io provides AI-powered writing services, including eulogies, obituaries, wedding speeches, and wedding vows, as well as memorial website hosting. Weblaunchy IVS acts as the data controller for purposes of applicable data protection laws. If you have questions or requests regarding this Privacy Policy, you may contact us at hello@toastmaster.io.

Information We Collect

We collect limited personal information that you voluntarily provide when using our services. This includes your email address, which is used to deliver generated content, purchase confirmations, and essential service communications. We also collect the text, stories, and other information you submit through our forms in order to generate personalized written content.

If you use our memorial website service, we may additionally collect photos you upload, biographical information about the deceased, and content contributed by memorial visitors (such as tributes and shared photos). Memorial pages may also record anonymous aggregate view counts.

Payments are processed securely by a trusted third-party payment processor. Toastmaster does not store or have access to your full payment details, such as credit card numbers.

When you use our website, certain anonymous usage data may be collected automatically. This may include pages visited, actions taken, referral sources, browser type, device information, and approximate location such as country or region. We collect this information using a privacy-focused, cookieless analytics tool that does not use cookies, local storage, or any other client-side tracking technology. No personally identifiable information is collected through our analytics, and visitors cannot be tracked across websites.

How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information to provide and deliver AI-generated content, send access links and receipts, process payments, prevent fraud, improve and optimize our services, measure advertising effectiveness, and comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

Legal Basis for Processing

For users located in the European Economic Area, we process personal data based on one or more of the following legal grounds: the performance of a contract when processing is necessary to deliver the requested service; our legitimate interests in operating, improving, and securing our services, including through anonymous, cookieless analytics that do not process personal data; and compliance with legal obligations.

AI Processing and Generated Content

To generate content, the information you submit may be processed by third-party AI providers. Your content is shared with these providers solely for the purpose of generating the requested text. We do not sell your content, and it is not used for advertising purposes. We do not use your content to train our own AI models. These providers process data in accordance with their own privacy policies and applicable safeguards.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide access to your generated content, operate the service, and meet legal, accounting, or regulatory requirements. You may request deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting hello@toastmaster.io.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Toastmaster.io does not use cookies or similar client-side tracking technologies for analytics purposes. Our website analytics are powered by a privacy-focused, cookieless service that collects only anonymous, aggregated usage data. No personal data is stored on your device, and no cookie consent banner is required.

Essential cookies may be used solely where technically necessary for core website functionality, such as session management during a purchase. These cookies are strictly necessary and do not track your activity across other websites.

Data Sharing and Third Parties

We share personal data only with trusted third-party service providers necessary to operate our services. These include providers for payment processing, AI text generation, email delivery, analytics, advertising measurement, and hosting infrastructure. We do not sell personal data.

International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed and stored outside your country of residence, including in the United States. Where required by law, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent mechanisms to protect international data transfers.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable data protection laws, including the right to access your personal data, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, restrict or object to processing, request data portability, withdraw consent at any time, and lodge a complaint with a relevant supervisory authority. You may exercise these rights by contacting hello@toastmaster.io.

Children's Privacy

Toastmaster.io is not intended for children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
