Privacy Policy

Wedbloom · Last updated 21 August 2026

Who is responsible for this app

Wedbloom is made and published by Bogdan Szarka, an individual developer based in Romania. Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation this is the data controller for the app, and can be reached at exceedapp.info@gmail.com.

What we collect

Nothing. Wedbloom has no analytics, no advertising, no tracking and no crash reporting service. The app makes no network request to us, because we do not operate a server for it to talk to.

It also contains no third party software development kits at all. Everything in the app is either written by us or part of Apple's own frameworks.

What you store, and where it lives

The information you enter, meaning your names and date, guests, seating, budget, suppliers, the day's plan, tasks, photos and reminders, is written to storage on your own device.

• It is not uploaded to us.
• It is not sold, and it is not shared with anyone except the partner you personally invite (see below).
• It is not used for advertising or profiling.
• You can export all of it at any time, or delete it by deleting the app.

It is also kept in sync with your own iCloud account, so it survives a lost or replaced phone. That copy lives in your private iCloud storage, never on a server of ours. See iCloud sync below.

iCloud sync

Wedbloom keeps your plan in sync with your own iCloud account, through Apple's CloudKit private database, so the same wedding shows on your iPhone and your iPad and survives a broken device.

• The copy sits in your iCloud, under your own Apple Account, not on a server we own or rent. We hold no key to it and have no way to read it.
• It moves only between devices signed in to that same Apple Account, plus the partner you invite, described next.
• It is handled under Apple's Privacy Policy.
• You can switch it off in iOS Settings, your name, iCloud, then Wedbloom. The app keeps working; your plan simply stays on that one device.

Planning together

Wedbloom lets you invite your partner to plan the same wedding. This is an optional feature, off until you turn it on, and it uses Apple's CloudKit sharing.

• When you invite someone, the wedding is shared from your private iCloud to the person you chose, through Apple. It is not routed through any server of ours.
• Only the people you invite can see it. You can stop sharing at any time from inside the app.
• To coordinate the two devices, Apple may send silent background notifications. These carry no readable content about your wedding, and are handled under Apple's Privacy Policy.

Device backups

Backup and sync are different things. The sync above keeps your devices in step; a backup is a separate copy Apple takes of the whole phone.

If you have iCloud Backup switched on, Apple includes app data in your device backup, as it does for other apps. That backup is between you and Apple, covered by Apple's Privacy Policy. We have no access to it.

The backup that is entirely yours is the file you export from the app. It is free, always available, and it goes wherever you choose to put it.

Photos

You can set a photo of the two of you as your cover. You pick it through Apple's own photo picker, which hands Wedbloom only the single image you chose. Wedbloom does not have access to your photo library and does not browse it, so there is no photo permission to grant. The image you pick is stored on your device with the rest of your plan and is never sent anywhere.

Notifications

Your reminders are scheduled locally, by iOS, on your own device. They are not push notifications, so nothing about your wedding is sent through a server in order to deliver them. The only background notifications used are the silent ones Apple sends to coordinate sharing, described above, which carry no content.

Purchases

If you buy Wedbloom Pro, the purchase is handled entirely by Apple's App Store. We never see your name, card details or billing address. The store tells the app only whether the purchase is active.

Third parties

Wedbloom has no analytics provider, no advertising network and no crash reporting service. No company receives your plan from us, because we do not have it to give.

The only companies involved at all are: Apple, which operates the App Store, the iCloud sync and sharing described above, and the iCloud backup you may have switched on; and whichever service you choose when you tap Share to send an export somewhere. In each case the data is handled under those companies' own privacy policies, and in the last case it goes only where you personally send it.

Children

Wedbloom is a planning tool for couples and is not directed at children. It does not knowingly collect information from anyone, of any age.

How long data is kept, and how to delete it

We keep nothing, so there is nothing on our side with a retention period. Your plan stays on your device for exactly as long as you want it:

• Delete one thing: remove a guest, a table, a payment or a moment in the app, and it is gone immediately.
• Delete everything: delete the app. iOS removes all of its data with it.
• Take a copy first: export a complete backup file you keep. This is free and always available.

To remove the synced copy as well, open iOS Settings, your name, iCloud, Wedbloom and turn it off, then use Manage Storage in the same place to delete what is already stored, including anything held in iCloud Backup.

Withdrawing permission

Photo library access, camera access and notifications can each be turned off at any time in iOS Settings, Wedbloom. iCloud sync is switched off separately, in Settings, your name, iCloud, Wedbloom. The app keeps working without any of them; it simply cannot add a photo, or send reminders, or keep your devices in step, until they are granted again.

How your information is protected

Your plan is written to Wedbloom's own storage area on the device, which iOS keeps separate from other apps and protects with the device's encryption. The synced copy sits in your private iCloud, under Apple's protection. There is no server of ours that could be broken into, because we do not run one.

The part that is yours is the device itself: a passcode or Face ID is what stops someone who picks up your phone from reading what is in it.

International transfers

None are made by us. Nothing about you or your wedding is sent to us, so there is no personal data for us to transfer anywhere.

Your synced and shared copies are stored by Apple, which operates data centres in several countries and handles the transfer under Apple's Privacy Policy. When you tap Share to send an export somewhere, it goes to the service you personally chose, under that service's own terms.

Selling and sharing

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for advertising or any other purpose. We have never done so. There is no advertising identifier, no data broker, and no cross app tracking in Wedbloom, and the app asks for no tracking permission because it has nothing to track. For readers in California: because nothing is collected, sold or shared, there is nothing to opt out of, and Global Privacy Control signals have no data to act on.

Your rights

Under the GDPR, the CCPA and similar laws you have rights to access, correct, export and delete your personal data. In Wedbloom those rights are satisfied by the app itself rather than by a request to us: the data is on your device, you can read it, change it, export it in full and destroy it at any moment, without asking anyone. We could not produce a copy of your plan if you asked, because we do not have one.

If you believe your data has been mishandled you may complain to your national data protection authority.

Changes

If a future version of Wedbloom changes how information is handled, this page will be updated before that version ships, and the date above will change. Should anything ever start travelling somewhere new, it will be named here first.
