Information I Collect
I may collect personal data when you interact with me, such as:
- Your name, email address, and phone number when you inquire or book
- Details you choose to share about your elopement plans
- Payment information (processed securely via trusted third parties)
- Technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and browsing behavior (through Google Analytics, with consent)
Cookies & Analytics
This website uses cookies. Essential cookies help the site function properly. Non-essential cookies — such as Google Analytics — are only activated if you give consent through the cookie banner.
Google Analytics helps me understand how visitors use this site so I can improve content and usability. Analytics data is anonymous and never shared with advertisers. You can update or withdraw your consent at any time through the cookie preferences button.
How I Use Your Information
I use your personal data to:
- Respond to inquiries and provide my services
- Manage bookings, contracts, and communication
- Process payments securely
- Improve my website and services
- Comply with legal requirements such as invoicing and taxes
I do not sell or share your personal information with advertisers.
Payments
When you book with me, payments are processed securely through Dubsado, my client management system. Credit card payments made through Dubsado are handled by Stripe, a trusted and industry-standard payment processor. For some international bookings, I may also use Wise for bank transfers.
I never store or have access to your full payment details — I only receive confirmation of payment status.
Third Parties & Service Providers
To run North Wind Elopements smoothly, I sometimes share limited personal data with trusted third parties. These providers only receive the information necessary to perform their services and are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations.
This may include:
- Dubsado (client management, contracts, questionnaires)
- Stripe (credit card payments)
- Wise (international bank transfers)
- Pic-Time (image delivery)
- A trusted part-time assistant, if needed, to support editing or logistics — with access only to what is necessary
Data Retention
I keep your personal data only as long as needed to provide my services or as required by law (for example, for tax and accounting purposes). Once it is no longer necessary, I delete it in line with my data retention practices.

If you are located in the EU, UK, or other regions with data protection laws, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data I hold about you
- Correct inaccurate or outdated data
- Request deletion of your data
