Terms and Conditions

Roberta-Ionela Preda, Julie-Pöhler-Straße 18, 74564 Crailsheim, Germany (“the provider”).

Different terms proposed by the customer apply only if the provider expressly accepts them. Individual agreements take priority.

InvitaMe allows customers to select a template; enter and store invitation text and event details; upload photographs; publish an invitation at a randomly generated address; create personalised household links; and collect, manage and export current RSVP responses. InvitaMe does not itself send invitations, emails, SMS or WhatsApp messages. Customers share their links independently.

The specific scope of service, publication period, total price including taxes and available payment method will be shown immediately before a customer places an order that requires payment. Drafts and template previews are free until publication. There is no subscription or automatic renewal unless the order process expressly states otherwise.

Displaying the service does not itself constitute a binding offer. The customer can review and correct entries in the guided editor. A paid contract is formed only when the customer confirms the highlighted service, duration and price information in the final order step, selects the button that unambiguously indicates an obligation to pay, and the provider accepts the order. An automated acknowledgement is an acceptance only if it expressly says so.

The contract language is English. The provider does not store the contract text in a form retrievable by the customer; these Terms remain permanently available at this address, and customers should save or print them at the time of ordering. The essential order data — service, publication period and total price — is shown in the final order step, and the payment receipt is sent by the payment provider to the email address entered at checkout.

A personal account is required to use the editor. Customers must provide accurate information, keep access credentials and personalised guest links confidential, and report suspected misuse without undue delay. Actions taken through a compromised account will not be attributed to the customer to the extent that the customer is not responsible for the misuse.

Customers retain their rights in their own text and photographs. For the contract term, they grant the provider the non-exclusive rights required to store, technically process, reproduce and make that content available through the selected public or personalised links. This permission does not include using the content for advertising or training AI models.

Customers may upload and publish only content for which they hold the necessary rights and data protection authority. Unlawful, abusive or third-party-infringing content is not permitted. The provider’s design templates, software and trademarks are licensed solely for the agreed use and may not be copied, sold or reused outside InvitaMe.

Customers may enter only guest data that is necessary and must inform the people concerned in a timely and transparent manner. Private notes must be limited to what is necessary. Free-text dietary information may contain health data. Before enabling that question, the customer must ensure that an Article 9 GDPR legal basis exists and that any required information or consent is demonstrable.

The customer decides whom to invite and what guest information to enter; the provider processes that data to operate the service as described in the Privacy Policy. For a purely private wedding, the GDPR household exemption may apply to the customer’s own use of the guest list.

The total price shown in the final order step applies. The invitation is published after payment is confirmed or a valid activation code is redeemed. A code may be used once, is not transferable if assigned to a particular person, and has no cash value. A failed or cancelled payment does not publish the invitation; the draft remains available.

Payment is processed by Stripe on its hosted checkout page; accepted payment methods are shown there and currently comprise major debit and credit cards. The invitation is published the moment Stripe confirms the payment. Where receipts are enabled, Stripe sends a payment receipt to the email address entered at checkout. Details of the payment data processing are in the Privacy Policy.

The provider applies the German small-business rule (section 19 UStG): VAT is not charged or shown, and the total price displayed in the order step is the final price.

Consumers generally have a 14-day right of withdrawal. Details are provided in the Withdrawal Policy. If the customer asks for the service to begin before the withdrawal period expires, proportionate compensation may be payable after withdrawal where the statutory information requirements have been met. For a service, merely beginning performance does not extinguish the right of withdrawal; early expiry requires all statutory conditions, including complete performance, to be satisfied.

The provider does not guarantee uninterrupted availability. It may carry out necessary maintenance, security measures and reasonable technical changes without removing material contractual functions. Mandatory statutory update obligations for digital products remain unaffected. Where there is a specific indication of unlawful content or a security risk, the provider may suspend content temporarily. Customers will be informed and given an opportunity to respond unless compelling reasons prevent this.

The publication period for a published invitation is at least twelve months from publication. Public access ends when that period expires unless an extension is agreed. Current RSVP data can be exported as CSV; customers should export it before the period ends.

Deletion follows the Privacy Policy: households can be deleted in the dashboard at any time, and full deletion of an invitation and its data can be requested from the contact address at any time.

Statutory remedies for defective digital products apply. The provider’s liability is unlimited for intent and gross negligence; injury to life, limb or health; liability under the German Product Liability Act; and any guarantee given. For a slightly negligent breach of an essential contractual duty, liability is limited to the typical, foreseeable loss. Mandatory statutory claims remain unaffected.

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that it does not remove the protection of mandatory provisions of the state of their habitual residence. Statutory rules on jurisdiction remain unaffected.

The provider is neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute-resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (section 36 VSBG).

As a microenterprise providing services within the meaning of section 3(3) BFSG, the provider is exempt from the accessibility requirements that the BFSG imposes on services. Accessibility nevertheless remains a product goal.
