Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 3, 2025

Accelerated Ideas OÜ ("Company", "we", "us", or "our") operates the Guestdoors website (https://guestdoors.com) and associated services (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service. Please read this policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the Service.

We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time and for any reason. We will alert you about any changes by updating the "Last Updated" date of this Privacy Policy. You are encouraged to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed of updates.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect via the Service depends on the content and materials you use, and includes:

  • Personal Data (Hosts): When Hosts register for an Account, we collect personally identifiable information, such as your name, email address, and potentially business information required for account setup and Stripe connection.
  • Property Information (Hosts): Information Hosts provide about their properties, including descriptions, photos, location details, pricing, and availability.
  • Guest Information (Guests): When Guests make a booking request through a Host's Property Page, Hosts collect information necessary for the booking, such as the Guest's name, email address, and phone number. This information is primarily managed by the Host. Guestdoors may have incidental access to this data as part of providing the Service, but does not use it directly.
  • Usage Data: Information automatically collected when you access the Service, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, access times, and the pages you have viewed directly before and after accessing the Service. This may be collected via cookies or similar technologies.
  • Analytics Data: We use third-party analytics services like Google Analytics to collect, monitor, and analyze usage patterns to improve our Service.
  • Financial Data (Stripe): All payment processing for Host subscriptions and Guest bookings (when paid upfront) is handled by Stripe. We do not collect or store full payment card details. Hosts connect their Stripe accounts directly, and Guests provide payment information directly to Stripe. We may receive transaction confirmations or information related to payment status from Stripe.

2. How We Use Your Information

Having accurate information permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Service to:

  • Create and manage your Host Account.
  • Operate and maintain the Service.
  • Process Host subscription payments through Stripe.
  • Facilitate bookings between Hosts and Guests.
  • Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the Service (using tools like Google Analytics and LogRocket).
  • Diagnose and fix technology problems (using LogRocket).
  • Communicate with you regarding your account or the Service.
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms and Conditions.

3. Disclosure of Your Information

We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations. Your information may be disclosed as follows:

  • By Law or to Protect Rights: If we believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of our policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation.
  • Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your information with third parties that perform services for us or on our behalf, including payment processing (Stripe), data analysis (Google Analytics), session replay and bug tracking (LogRocket), email delivery, hosting services, and customer service.
  • Business Transfers: We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.
  • With Hosts/Guests: Information necessary to facilitate a booking (like Guest name and contact details) is shared with the respective Host. Information provided by the Host on their Property Page is publicly visible to Guests accessing the link.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services, which have their own privacy policies:

We are not responsible for the actions of third parties with whom you share personal or sensitive data, and we have no authority to manage or control third-party solicitations. If you no longer wish to receive correspondence, emails or other communications from third parties, you are responsible for contacting the third party directly.

5. Tracking Technologies (Cookies and Web Beacons)

We may use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and other tracking technologies on the Service to help customize the Service and improve your experience. When you access the Service, your personal information is not collected through the use of tracking technology. Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default. You can usually choose to set your browser to remove or reject cookies, but be aware that such action could affect the availability and functionality of the Service.

6. Data Security

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

7. Data Retention

We will retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. For Hosts, we will retain your information as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services and comply with our legal obligations. Information related to Guests collected by Hosts is subject to the Host's retention policies.
