Privacy Policy
How Guestrix collects, uses and protects your personal data, the legal basis for processing, and how you can exercise your rights.
Introduction
Guestrix AB is deeply committed to privacy and the protection of Personal Data that we handle. We value your personal integrity and actively work to safeguard it.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") outlines how we collect, use, and protect your Personal Data, the legal basis for such Processing, and how you can exercise your rights related to our Processing of your Personal Data.
Guestrix AB, with registration number 559413-3489 ("Guestrix", "we", "us", "our"), is the Data Controller for the Personal Data described in this Policy.
This Policy describes only the processing where Guestrix acts as Controller. When Guestrix processes personal data on behalf of customers (e.g., restaurants) using our analytics platform, Guestrix acts as Processor. That processing is governed by a separate Data Processing Agreement (DPA) and is not covered in this Policy.
For booking and guest data from the WaiterAid booking system, the restaurant is the Controller, BokaBord Nordic AB is its Processor, and Guestrix processes the data as a sub-processor to BokaBord Nordic AB under a separate agreement.
This Policy applies when you interact with us, use our Services, or visit our website guestrix.com or our application app.guestrix.com ("Functions").
Target Audience
- Users of our Services
- Contacts at customers and potential customers
- Visitors to our website

Role of Guestrix as a Controller
This Policy focuses on the Personal Data for which Guestrix acts as the Controller, meaning we determine the purpose and methods of Processing. It does not cover our role as a Processor when handling data on behalf of our customers.
Examples of situations where Guestrix is Controller include:
- creating and managing user accounts for customer organizations,
- billing and customer communication,
- monitoring service usage for security and performance,
- marketing, website operation and analytics.
Processing of Personal Data
Our commitment is to clearly explain how we meet the obligations regarding your Personal Data Processing. This includes detailing the types of Personal Data we process, the reasons for processing, and our legal basis for doing so.
Duration of Personal Data Storage
We retain your Personal Data only as long as necessary for its intended purpose. The retention period may be determined by a contract, consent, legal requirements, or our legitimate interest assessment. We regularly delete or anonymize unnecessary Personal Data and strive to keep our records accurate and up-to-date.
Where Guestrix acts as a Processor on behalf of a customer, retention periods are defined by the customer and governed by the applicable Data Processing Agreement.
Collection and Usage of Personal Data
We collect Personal Data:
- Directly from you
- Through your employer
- Via our logs and internally generated information
We primarily process the following Personal Data:
- Contact details for identity verification, communication, and service improvement
- Usage data from the application, including product analytics and recording of user sessions in the portal, to improve the Services and to support users
- Payment details to facilitate various payment methods
When we act as Controller, we do not process detailed guest data (e.g., booking history, spend, visit data). Such information, when processed within the Guestrix platform, is handled strictly as Processor under instructions from the customer and is not part of Guestrix's own Controller-based processing.
Anonymised and Aggregated Data
Guestrix derives anonymised and aggregated statistics from the data processed in the Services, for benchmarks, intelligence services and development of the Services and their models. Such statistics cannot be attributed to a restaurant, a guest or an employee and are not Personal Data. The customer's agreement with Guestrix and the Data Processing Agreement govern this use.
Lawful Basis for Processing
We process your Personal Data based on:
- Consent: Processing based on your explicit consent.
- Contract performance: Necessary Processing to fulfill a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
- Legal obligations: When required by law.
- Legitimate interests: Where our legitimate interests justify the Processing, and these interests are not overridden by your rights.
Your Rights
You maintain control over your Personal Data and have rights including access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction, and data portability. You can withdraw consent at any time for future Processing. To exercise these rights, please contact us at [email protected].
When Guestrix acts as Processor or sub-processor (for example, when processing restaurant guest data), requests relating to access, rectification, deletion or objection must be directed to the restaurant, which is the Controller. We support our customers in fulfilling such requests according to the Data Processing Agreement.
Data Sharing and Sub-processors
We may share your Personal Data with selected third parties and Processors to facilitate our Services. Transfers outside the EU/EEA are conducted under adequate protections, such as adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses (SCC), or other suitable safeguards.
We use the following sub-processors, both for our own Controller-based processing and, where relevant, as Processor on behalf of customers. Changes are notified to customers according to the Data Processing Agreement.
| Purpose | Supplier | Data | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hosting and databases | DigitalOcean | All data in the Services | EU/EEA |
| Login and user accounts | Kinde | Name, email address, login data | EU/EEA |
| Error monitoring | Sentry | Technical error reports, may include user identity | USA, SCC |
| Product analytics and session recording | Amplitude | Usage data, user identity, recordings of user sessions in the portal | EU/EEA |

| AI services for Gus and text generation | Anthropic, OpenAI, Google | Text and data included in a question to, or an answer from, the AI functions in the Services | USA, SCC |
The AI service providers do not use data from the Services to train their models.
Security Measures
Guestrix employs both organizational and technical measures to secure your Personal Data against unauthorized access, loss, and misuse. Typical security measures may include:
- pseudonymization and masking of identifiers in the platform,
- tenant-level data separation,
- strict role-based access control,
- audit logging of user access,
- encryption in transit and at rest,
- backup and recovery routines,
- a documented incident process.
These measures apply both to Guestrix's Controller-based processing and, where relevant, to Processor-based processing conducted on behalf of customers.
