  • Consent: For analytics cookies (Google Analytics), we ask for your explicit consent through our cookie banner.
  • Legal obligation: We keep billing data as required by applicable Mexican and Spanish tax law.

  • Rectification: Correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Erasure ("right to be forgotten"): Request the deletion of your data when it is no longer needed for the purpose for which it was collected.
  • Portability: Receive your data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and transmit it to another controller.
  • Restriction of processing: Ask us to restrict the processing of your data in certain circumstances.

14.3 International Data Transfers

Your data may be transferred to and processed in Mexico and the United States through our service providers. These transfers are protected by Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission. Our sub-processors include:

  • Railway (infrastructure and hosting) — United States
  • Stripe (payment processing) — United States/EU
  • Resend (transactional email delivery) — United States
  • Apple Inc. (Apple Wallet) — United States

14.4 Retention Periods

DataPeriod
Active customer accountFor as long as you keep your account
Inactive customer accountKept until the account holder requests deletion (self-service in their customer portal or by email)
Billing data5 years (Mexican/Spanish tax obligation)
Deleted business account (grace period)30 days before permanent deletion
Analytics logs26 months from collection
Consent records5 years (evidence of compliance)
Database backups30 days (automatic rotation)
Deleted accounts (identifiable data)Irreversibly deleted

When a customer or business requests the deletion of their account, identifiable personal data is deleted from the production database. Backups containing deleted data are overwritten within the 30-day rotation cycle; during that period we keep a record of the request so the deletion can be reapplied if a backup is ever restored.

How to request deletion: customers can delete their account from their business's customer portal (also reachable from the back of the Apple/Google Wallet pass). Businesses can delete their account from Settings → Danger zone, with a 30-day grace period to reverse the process.

14.5 Supervisory Authority

If you believe the processing of your data infringes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos, AEPD) at www.aepd.es or with the data protection authority of your country of residence.
