Your Privacy Matters to Us

Explore our Privacy Policy to learn how we collect, use, and safeguard the information you share with us.

1. Data Controller

The entity acting as Data Controller depends on where you are located:


Parcy, Inc. — users located outside the European Union or EEA

Your Data Controller is:


Legal name

Parcy, Inc.

Registered address

981 Mission Street #87, San Francisco, CA 94103, United States

Contact email

privacy@parcy.co



Parcy, Inc. is the US-incorporated entity and Data Controller for all personal data of users located outside the EU/EEA — including users in the United States and all other jurisdictions.



Parcy S.r.l. — users located in the European Union or EEA

Your Data Controller is:


Legal name

Parcy S.r.l.

Registered address

Via Marsala 29 H, 00185 Roma (RM), Italy

VAT / P.IVA

IT14900481004

Contact email

privacy@parcy.co



Parcy S.r.l. is the EU-established entity and sole Data Controller for all personal data of EU/EEA residents. Your data is stored and processed within the European Union on EU-based infrastructure (see Section 7). Parcy S.r.l. is the primary point of contact for all GDPR rights, supervisory authority inquiries, and data subject requests from EU/EEA residents.



Common framework

Parcy, Inc. and Parcy S.r.l. operate under this shared Privacy Policy and an intragroup data processing agreement ensuring equivalent standards across both entities. Regardless of which entity is your Data Controller, your data is protected under the same technical and organizational measures described in this Policy. Contact privacy@parcy.co for any inquiry — your request will be routed to the correct entity.



2. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to:

  • Visitors to parcy.co and subdomains

  • Users of the Parcy platform (app.parcy.co / eu.parcy.app)

  • Event attendees whose data is processed through the Parcy platform on behalf of our customers

  • Prospective customers and contacts


This Policy covers both Parcy, Inc. (Data Controller for users outside the EU/EEA) and Parcy S.r.l. (Data Controller for EU/EEA users), as described in Section 1. The applicable entity is determined by the user's location at the time of account creation.


Parcy operates as both a Data Controller (for website visitors and direct customers) and a Data Processor (for personal data of event attendees submitted by our customers). Where Parcy acts as Processor, the customer's privacy policy governs that processing, and Parcy processes data only pursuant to documented instructions under a Data Processing Agreement (DPA).



3. Personal Data We Collect


3.1 Data you provide directly

  • Account registration: name, email address, phone number, company name, job title

  • Billing information: name, billing address, VAT number (payment card data is processed by our payment provider and never stored by Parcy)

  • Event creation and management: event names, descriptions, attendee lists, scheduling data

  • Support and communications: content of messages, support tickets, feedback


3.2 Data collected automatically

  • Usage data: pages visited, features used, click patterns, session duration

  • Technical data: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device identifiers

  • Cookies and tracking: see Section 11 (Cookie Policy)

  • Log data: server logs including timestamps, request paths, error codes


3.3 Attendee data (processed on behalf of customers)


When customers use Parcy to manage events, they may submit personal data about their attendees (names, email addresses, dietary preferences, registration details, etc.). Parcy processes this data strictly as a Data Processor under a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with the customer, who remains the Data Controller.

For EU/EEA customers: attendee data submitted through Parcy is stored and processed exclusively on EU-based infrastructure (AWS EMEA and Supabase EU regions). No attendee data from EU customers is transferred outside the EEA unless technically necessary and covered by Standard Contractual Clauses (see Section 7).

For non-EU customers: attendee data may be processed in additional jurisdictions as required for service delivery.



4. Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR Art. 6)


We process your personal data on the following legal bases:


Legal Basis

Processing Activities

Contract (Art. 6(1)(b))

Providing the Parcy platform, processing your subscription, managing your account

Legitimate Interest (Art. 6(1)(f))

Security and fraud prevention, product improvement, analytics, customer support, direct marketing to existing customers

Consent (Art. 6(1)(a))

Marketing communications to non-customers, non-essential cookies and tracking

Legal Obligation (Art. 6(1)(c))

Tax and accounting records, compliance with applicable laws


Where we rely on legitimate interests, you have the right to object (see Section 8). Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.



5. Purposes of Processing

  • Providing, maintaining, and improving the Parcy platform

  • Account management and authentication

  • Processing payments and managing subscriptions

  • Sending transactional communications (confirmations, receipts, product updates)

  • Sending marketing communications where permitted

  • Providing customer support

  • Security monitoring and fraud prevention

  • Compliance with legal obligations (tax, accounting, law enforcement requests)

  • Aggregated analytics to understand product usage and improve features



6. Data Retention


We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law:


Data Category

Retention Period

Account and user data

Duration of the active subscription, plus 12 months after account closure

Billing and financial records

10 years (Italian/EU tax law — D.P.R. 633/1972; US requirements)

Event and attendee data

As instructed by the customer (Data Controller); deleted upon customer request or account closure

Website analytics data

26 months maximum

Support communications

3 years from last interaction

After the applicable retention period, data is securely deleted or anonymized.



7. International Data Transfers


Parcy, Inc. — non-EU/EEA users


For users outside the EU/EEA, data is processed primarily in the United States and may be processed in other jurisdictions as required for service delivery. Parcy, Inc. applies the same technical and organizational security standards regardless of processing location.


Parcy S.r.l. — EU/EEA users


Primary data storage for all EU/EEA accounts resides exclusively within the European Union, hosted on AWS EMEA and Supabase EU infrastructure. Parcy S.r.l. does not transfer EU personal data outside the EEA as a matter of default operation.

Where technical necessity requires transfers to non-EEA subprocessors (WorkOS and Mux, both US-based), Parcy S.r.l. relies on:

  • European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) — Commission Decision (EU) 2021/914

  • Supplementary technical measures: encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256)

  • Data minimization: only the minimum data necessary is transferred to these vendors


A full list of subprocessors and their locations is provided in Section 9.

12. Data Security


Parcy implements appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, or destruction, including:

  • Encryption in transit: TLS 1.2+ for all data transmission

  • Encryption at rest: AES-256 for stored data

  • Access controls: role-based access, least-privilege principle, MFA for internal systems

  • Regular security reviews and penetration testing

  • Incident response procedures with notification timelines compliant with GDPR Art. 33–34 (72-hour breach notification to supervisory authority)


In the event of a data breach likely to result in high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay.



13. Children's Data


The Parcy platform is a B2B service designed for business users. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 16 (or the applicable age of digital consent in your country). If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected data from a minor, we will delete it promptly. If you believe this has occurred, contact: privacy@parcy.co.



14. Automated Decision-Making and Profiling


Parcy does not use automated decision-making processes that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects on individuals. Analytics and usage data are processed in aggregate to improve the product, not to make individual determinations.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do:

  • Material changes will be notified by email and/or a prominent notice on the platform at least 30 days before taking effect

  • Minor changes (corrections, clarifications) will be updated with a new effective date

  • Continued use of the platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated policy
