vows.memories lets a couple collect the photos and videos their wedding guests take. This page says what we store, why, and how to have it removed.
What we store
- If you create an account: your name, your email address and a scrambled (hashed) copy of your password. We never store the password itself.
- If you are a guest: the photos and videos you choose to upload, and your name, caption or guestbook message if you add one. Guests don’t need an account.
- Files are kept exactly as they left your phone. That includes details the camera saved inside the file, such as the time and, if your camera records it, the place a photo was taken.
- To keep the service safe: your IP address is used briefly to limit repeated attempts, and a sign-in cookie keeps account holders signed in. Sign-in and sign-up may show a Cloudflare Turnstile check to keep bots out.
We don’t run advertising or analytics trackers, and we don’t sell or share your data for marketing.
Who can see uploads
The couple who own an album can always see everything in it. They choose whether its gallery is open to anyone with the album link, only to guests who scanned the QR code, or to no one but themselves. They can hide or delete any upload.
Where it is kept
Files are stored with Cloudflare (R2 storage), account and album records in a MongoDB database, and the site runs on Vercel. These companies process the data on our behalf so that the service works.
How long we keep it
Uploads stay until the couple deletes them, the album, the wedding or their account. Deleting is permanent: the files are removed from storage straight away and can’t be recovered.
Having something removed
- Account holders can delete albums, weddings and their whole account from the dashboard.
- Guests who want a photo, video or message taken down can ask the couple, or write to contact@vows.rsvp with the album link and a description of the upload.
