Sub-processors and recipients

Your data is processed by ARCLAY and the following service providers, each for the stated purpose:

• Vercel Inc. (United States): app hosting.

• Framer B.V. (Netherlands): showcase website hosting.

• Our payment provider: collection of subscription payments.

People you invite to your cellar can view its data, based on the access level you grant them. We do not sell your data or share it with third parties for advertising purposes.

Transfers outside the European Union

Some service providers are based in the United States. Transfers are governed by the European Commission's standard contractual clauses or by an adequacy decision. When available, we choose data hosting within the European Union.

• Invoices and accounting data: ten years, in accordance with legal obligations.

• Technical logs: twelve months at most.

• Photos and text sent to the AI model: not retained by the provider beyond processing, in accordance with its commitments applicable to API use.

You have the right to access, rectify and erase your data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to data portability, as well as the right to set directives regarding its handling after your death. The CSV export available in the app fulfills the right to data portability for your cellar data. To exercise your rights, write to us at the contact address; we respond within one month. You may file a complaint with the CNIL (cnil.fr), the French data protection authority.
