Privacy policy

Draft. The final text will be published after legal review, before the platform starts taking payments.

How Трапеза collects and uses your personal data, why, for how long, and what rights you have. We collect only what the service needs.

1. Controller

The operator's details (company name, company number, registered address) will be given here before launch.

Email for data questions: hello@trapezachef.com

2. What we collect

From guests: name, email, phone, event address, date, number of guests, food preferences and your messages to chefs.

Health data: allergies and diets, only if you give them and give explicit consent.

From chefs: name, contact details, city, experience, photos, menus, legal form, invoicing details and bank account, health record and hygiene documents.

Payments: Stripe handles card details; we only see the result of the payment and the last digits of the card.

3. Why, and on what basis

To provide the service you ask for: send your request, show menus, handle the booking and payment (contract).

We process allergies and diets only with your explicit consent (GDPR Art. 9(2)(a)). You can withdraw it at any time.

To meet legal obligations: accounting, tax, and DAC7 reporting of chefs' income (legal obligation).

To protect the platform from fraud and off-platform payments, for example by hiding contact details in chat before payment (legitimate interest).

4. Who sees your data

Chefs see your request without your name, address and allergies. Only the chef you book and pay sees the full details.

Processors acting for us: Supabase (database, hosted in Frankfurt, EU), Vercel (hosting), Stripe (payments) and our email provider. We don't sell data to anyone.

5. How long we keep it

Allergies and diets are erased automatically 90 days after the event.

Booking and payment records are kept as long as accounting and tax law requires.

We keep your account while you use it. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

6. Cookies

We use only necessary cookies: to keep you signed in. We don't use advertising or tracking cookies.

7. Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict and port your data, to object, and to withdraw consent. Write to hello@trapezachef.com.

You have the right to complain to the Commission for Personal Data Protection (www.cpdp.bg).
