Text A Design (“we”) runs textadesign.com, a design desk that photo booth companies (“owners”) give to their clients.
This page says, in plain English, what we keep and why. Questions or a deletion request: use our contact form.
What we store
- Owners: your booth company name, your email, and your cell number if you give one. Your design desk settings (print size, mode).
- Clients of an owner: the text of the chat with the desk (what the client types and what the desk replies), the designs made
for them, which design they picked, and the client's phone number (clients who text the desk's number) or a phone number or
email a web chat client leaves for the owner.
- Designs: the background images, the print files and start screens we make.
- Billing: Stripe handles card payments. We never see or store card numbers. We keep the Stripe customer and subscription IDs
so we know whether your desk is paid.
- Abuse limits and counts: to stop spam and runaway costs we keep the internet (IP) address a request came from, for a short time
in daily limit counters, and delete it after at most 3 days. Our daily visitor counts store a one-way scrambled form of the address, never the address itself.
- “Get the files” requests: the email you give, the booth app you pick, and when, so we can send the zip and keep it
to one free pack per email per day. To have it deleted, use our contact form.
- Contact form messages: your name (if you give one), your email and your message, so we can answer you. A copy goes to
our operator's inbox. We don't add you to any list. To have a message deleted, say so in a new message.
- Try-it results: the event text and the 3 designs. Anyone with the share link can see them until they are deleted,
24 hours after they are made (7 days for designs we make to answer a template request).
- People we email: for booth companies we email, we keep the public business email and company name we found on their website
(with other details from that public site, such as city and web address), when we emailed, a code in that email's links, and whether
and when that code was used to visit the site, start a try-it or sign up. If you press Stop emails, the do-not-email list keeps only
your address and when and how it was added, so we never email it again.
- Cookies: the ones the site needs to work: one keeps an owner signed in to their dashboard, one keeps a client's chat
together, and one ties a visitor to the free try-it. If you open the link in an email we sent you, one more cookie keeps that email's
code for 7 days, only so we can count whether our email led to a try-it or a sign-up. No advertising cookies.
- Page visit counts: Cloudflare, which hosts the site, counts page visits for us (Cloudflare Web Analytics), without cookies.
Designs are AI-generated
Background art and the desk's chat replies are made by AI models. A person does not review each design
before the client sees it. The owner is responsible for checking a design before printing it.
Who processes the data
- Client and owner messages are sent to an AI model provider to write the replies and design the prints.
- Stripe for payments, Cloudflare for the website network and email delivery, and Twilio for text messages
on desks that use texting.
- Google (Gmail) holds our operator's inbox, where contact form messages are delivered.
We do not sell data. We do not use it for anyone else's advertising. The only marketing we use data for is our own email to photo booth businesses, sent to the public business email on their website, and we stop when asked.
Who sees what
An owner sees the conversations, designs and contact details of their own clients on their dashboard. Clients see only
their own chat. We can see everything in order to run and fix the service.
How long we keep it
Sign-ups that are never confirmed are deleted after 48 hours. Other data is kept while the service runs, so owners can
reprint and look back at past events. To have a desk or a client's conversation deleted, use our contact form with the email address
on the desk and say what to delete, and we will delete it.
