Wayo Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy was last updated on November 17, 2025.

This Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) describes how Wayo, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “Wayo”, “we”, “our” or “us”) collect, use, process, and share personal information. This Policy applies to visitors and users (individually, “you”) of Wayo’s websites, applications, social media accounts, and other services (collectively, the “Services”). Your use of the Services is also subject to the Wayo Terms of Service located at https://www.wayobusiness.com/legal/terms-of-service (the “Terms of Service”).  Definitions not defined in this Policy shall have the meanings set forth in the Terms of Service.

For California consumers, please find additional disclosures regarding this Policy set forth below.

The Services involve the sharing of personal information with third parties, including Providers. In some cases, these third parties may collect personal information directly from you and share it with us.  Please note that this Policy does not otherwise cover the use of personal information by such third parties or their services, and we do not take responsibility for their privacy practices.

INFORMATION WAYO COLLECTS AND USES

“Personal information” is data that identifies, relates to, describes, can be used to contact, or could reasonably be linked directly or indirectly to you. For purposes of this Policy, personal “information” and “personal data” are used interchangeably.

Personal Information Wayo Collects Directly From You

As you visit or use the Services, we collect the following categories of personal information directly from you collected by or on behalf of Wayo:

You may choose not to provide some of the personal information described above. However, many features of the Services require some personal information to operate, so if you choose not to provide the personal information necessary to operate and provide you with a particular feature of the Services, you may not be able to use that feature.

Sensitive Personal Information

We do not proactively collect sensitive personal information, such as health-related information. However, the Services include text boxes through which you may provide free-form narrative. Please be aware that information you freely submit through these text boxes may reveal to us or to Host Venues with which we or they share information (as detailed in the How Wayo Shares Your Information section, below) certain information that may be considered sensitive personal information under applicable law. This information is not used by us for the purpose of marketing or advertising products to you. In addition, certain features of the Services may prompt your device or browser to request access to your precise geolocation information, which may be considered sensitive personal information. Precise geolocation is not processed absent you granting permission through your device or browser. Sensitive personal information you voluntarily submit is processed on the basis of your consent, which you may revoke at any time by contacting us at the details set out in the How to Contact Wayo section below.

Personal Information Generated By Us

As you use the Services, we generate certain personal information about you, including through automatic data collection and by inferences based on the information we collect about you and your activity.  We may automatically collect information about your interactions with the Services or communications you receive (such as e-mail) using certain technologies, such as cookies, web beacons, and other technologies. We generate the following categories of personal information about you:

Personal Information We Obtain from Third Parties

We may also receive certain categories of personal information from third parties, such as third-party websites, applications, social media networks, and services (which may include publicly-available sources; each of these is a “third-party source”), our affiliates, Host Venues, and other third parties. If you are an existing Wayo customer, we will combine this information with information we collect through the Services and use and share it for the purposes described below. The categories of personal information we may obtain from third parties include:

Aggregate Information

We aggregate personal information collected directly from you, information generated about you by us, and information obtained from third parties (with your consent, where required) with personal information collected about other users in order to produce general statistics and generalized information that cannot be linked to you or any other specific user. Information that has been aggregated and de-identified is no longer considered “personal information” and may be subsequently used for any purpose.

Anonymized Information

We may process information that cannot be linked to you or any other specific user using any means available to us, either because it was collected anonymously or has been subsequently anonymized. Information that is anonymous or has been anonymized is no longer considered “personal information” and may be subsequently used for any purpose.

HOW WAYO USES YOUR INFORMATION

We use your personal information for the following purposes (“Purposes”), to:

You have choices about your personal information, and in some circumstances, you may have the right to opt out or object to our uses of your personal information for these Purposes. For more information, or to exercise these or other rights (where available), see the Your Choices and Rights section below.

Electronic Communications

Consistent with the above Purposes and as permitted by applicable law, we may communicate with you via electronic messages, including e-mail, text message, or mobile push notification to:

With your consent, where required, we may contact you at the mobile phone number that you provide to us by way of direct dial calls, autodialed and prerecorded message calls, text messages and push notifications in connection with the above Purposes.

We may access communications and may use automated means to review, scan, and analyze communications for security purposes, fraud prevention, compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, investigations of potential misconduct, product development, and improvement, research, or customer or technical support. We reserve the right to: (i) block the delivery of or transmission of or access to the communications; (ii) block your access to the Services in-product communication feature; or (iii) review communications that we, in our sole discretion, believe may contain malicious content, spam, or may pose a risk to you, us, or Host Venues.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Policy, no mobile information will be shared with third parties/Wayo affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All of the above categories of personal information exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Our Role as Data Controller and Data Processor

If applicable, for purposes of European Union law and similar national and international data protection regimes, we generally act as a data controller, meaning we determine the purposes and means of processing your personal information through the Services. Under certain circumstances, however, Host Venues may engage us to provide them with certain processing services related to information owned or controlled by the Host Venue. We seek assurances from Host Venues that they will process information in accordance with applicable laws, but we are not responsible for any Host Venue's use of information (including information used by its affiliates and its own service providers) for which it is an owner or controller. To learn more about how a particular Host Venue or its affiliates and service providers may use such information, you should consult with such Host Venue or review its privacy notice or policy, if available.

Processing Bases and Consequences

When we process your personal information, we rely on the following legal bases:

Consent

To the extent that a legal ground described above would not apply to the processing of your personal information by us, we will seek your consent for such specific purpose in accordance with applicable law (such as sending direct marketing messages by electronic means, like e-mail, without an exception from the requirement to obtain consent).

HOW WAYO SHARES YOUR INFORMATION

We disclose the personal information we collect (or otherwise generate or obtain) as follows:

In some circumstances, you may have the right to opt-out or object to our sharing of your personal information with certain third parties. For more information, or to exercise these or other rights, see the Your Choices and Rights section below.

Sharing with Host Venues as a Controller of Your Personal Information

When you make a request through the Services or through a Host Venue, such as a Host Venue reservation or making a payment to a Host Venue through the Services, we necessarily provide certain categories of your information to the Host Venue to facilitate that request. This information may include your name, profile, any special requests, information or comments that you choose to submit (if any), and your e-mail address. Your information is provided to the Host Venue, just as it would be if you contacted the Host Venue directly. Host Venues may send you text messages or otherwise contact you regarding your request. Payment information in its raw form is not shared with the Host Venues. Payment information is shared in a way to enable additional payments to the Host Venue, via Wayo’s Payment Services, for the current or future booked services on Wayo, but not in a way that would allow the Host Venue to use the payment information for any other reason and not anywhere except on the Wayo platform.

In addition to providing you with more customized Services, we may receive certain information from Host Venues that we analyze to provide aggregate information to the Host Venue about their customers.

We also share with Host Venues summary reports of feedback from customers. If you provide comments about a Host Venue through the Services, these comments may be shared with or may be accessible by that Host Venue, and the Host Venue may respond to you.

Sharing with Host Venues as a Processor or Host Venue on Their Behalf

We act as a processor or service provider for Host Venues in certain circumstances as described above (see above for more detail on Our Role as Data Controller and Data Processor). In providing these services to Host Venues, we may, at the direction of the Host Venue, share certain of your information with the Host Venue’s affiliates, or other entities associated with the Host Venue and/or persons or entities that provide services to the Host Venue (the “Host Venue Group”) for the following purposes:

For more information, please feel free to contact the Host Venues with which you reserve services, or contact us using the contact information listed in the How to Contact Wayo section below. To learn more about your choices related to how we share your information with Host Venues, please see the Your Choices and Rights section below.

Sharing with Our Affiliates

We share your information with our affiliates and subsidiaries. We may share your information with our affiliates for the following reasons, to:

To learn more about your choices related to how we share your information with our group companies, please see the Your Choices and Rights section below.

Sharing with Our Business Partners

We share your information with other third-party business partners for their own marketing purposes. These third parties include online advertisers or ad tech companies, who may provide you with targeted advertising and marketing communications, where permitted under law. The information we share includes information collected through your use of the Services (e.g., reservations for Host Venue services or other purchases) and information we collect about you through the use of cookies and similar technologies (e.g., information about the websites you visit; information about your searches).

To learn more about your choices related to how we share your information with our business partners, please see the Your Choices and Rights section below.

Sharing with Social Networking Services

The Services allow you to connect and share your actions, comments, content, and information publicly or with friends. The Services may also allow you to connect with us on, share on, and use third-party platforms, including those on which Wayo has a presence. Please be mindful of your personal privacy needs and the privacy needs of others as you choose whom to connect with and what to share and make public. We cannot control the privacy or security of information you choose to make public or share with others. Wayo also does not control the privacy practices of third-party platforms. Please contact those sites and services directly to learn about their privacy practices.

Sharing to Process Payment Information

To use certain Services (such as to make reservations with Host Venues; to make payments to Host Venues; and to purchase other products or services), we require credit or debit card account information. When you submit your credit or debit card account information through the Services, we share that information with third-party payment processors, and other third-party service providers (including, but not limited to, vendors who provide fraud detection services to us and other third parties) to the extent necessary to meet our contractual obligations to you (e.g., to secure your reservation or make a payment to a Host Venue, where required), to meet our legitimate interests in preventing fraud and other misuse of our platforms, or with your consent where this is required by law. In particular:

Sharing with Other Persons /Entities that Provide Services to Us

We share information with third-party vendors, consultants, and other service providers who perform services or functions on our behalf (e.g., hosting or operating the Services, data collection, reporting, ad response measurement, site analytics, data analysis, delivering marketing messages and advertisements, processing credit card payments, and providing fraud detection services). We do not authorize these third parties to use or disclose your information for purposes other than for which it has been provided. We require these third parties to maintain and implement security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access or processing.

Consent to Data Collection by Google Analytics

If you provide us with your consent to use Functional Cookies and, therefore, Google Analytics, we use Google Analytics to continuously optimize our website. We use Google Analytics to collect aggregated, anonymous data. This data helps us understand how customers use our platform and identify opportunities for improvement. Google Analytics anonymizes your IP address to protect your data. No other personal data is collected that would allow an identification. The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. You may withdraw your consent to the described data processing by Google Analytics here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/?hl=en-GB.

Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, California 94043, USA. Google Analytics cookies and similar technologies that are stored on your terminal device enable an analysis of your use of this website. This information is used to evaluate your use of the website and to compile reports on website or app activities. The processing of the data after its transmission by Wayo to Google is carried out by Google as the sole data controller. In this context, Google, as the sole data controller, may store data about you in the USA. The European Court of Justice has determined that the USA provides for an insufficient level of data protection. In this context, there is a risk that your data may be processed by US institutions or authorities for control and monitoring purposes without you having an adequate legal remedy against this.

HOW WAYO STORES AND PROTECTS YOUR INFORMATION

Security

Wayo maintains commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and physical security measures designed to protect your information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, please note that no internet transmission can ever be completely guaranteed to be secure, and so we encourage you to take care when disclosing personal information or any other information online and to use readily available tools, such as internet firewalls, secure e-mail, and similar technologies to protect yourself online.

You play an important role in keeping your information secure. You should not share your username, password, or other security information for your Account with anyone. If we receive instructions using your username and password, we will assume you have authorized the instructions. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (e.g., if you feel that the security of your Account has been compromised), please contact us immediately as detailed in the How to Contact Wayo section below.

Payment Card Information

When your credit or debit card account information is being transmitted to the Services or through the Services, it will be protected by cryptographic protocols. To be clear, Wayo does not itself store your credit or debit card account information, and we do not have direct control over or responsibility for your credit or debit card account information. We use third-party payment processors that are the controllers of your credit card information. Our contracts with third parties that receive your credit or debit card account information require them to keep it secure and confidential.

However, we cannot guarantee that transmissions of your credit or debit card account information or your other information will always be secure or that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat the security measures taken by Wayo and our third-party service providers. Except to the extent that liability cannot be excluded or limited due to applicable law, we assume no liability or responsibility for the disclosure of your information due to errors in transmission, unauthorized third-party access, or other causes beyond our control.

Data Retention

We may retain your personal information for as long as your Account is active and for a period of time thereafter to allow you to re-activate your Account without loss of information. We may also retain your personal information as necessary to:

WAYO’S USE OF COOKIES

When you use or visit the Services, we collect information about your usage and activity using cookies, web beacons, and other technologies. Third parties may also view, edit, or set their own cookies. We and our third-party service providers, our affiliates, and other business partners may also place web beacons for these third parties. The use of these technologies by third parties is subject to their own privacy policies and is not covered by this Privacy Policy, except as required by law.

If you subsequently wish to be removed from any existing Media, you can let us know via e-mail to privacy@wayo.club, and we’ll remove your image, likeness and/or voice from any future use of the associated Media.

Cookies and Interest-Based Advertising

You can exercise choices regarding cookies set through our websites or the Services, as well as other types of online tracking and online advertising, by adjusting your browser settings.   Currently, we do not employ technologies that recognize “do-not-track” signals from your browser.  However, if you enable opt-out preferences at the browser level through global privacy control, the Services will treat this signal as a request to opt out of the selling or sharing of your data collected through cookies for interest-based advertising purposes.

Our website and the Services are intended solely for use by individuals and entities located within the United States. We do not offer, market, or provide products or services (including the Services) to individuals located in the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA), and we do not monitor the behavior of individuals within those jurisdictions.

We use only cookies strictly necessary and essential for the functionality of the website and the Services, such as maintaining user sessions or enabling secure login. No tracking, advertising, or analytics cookies are used. As such, neither this website nor the Services are subject to the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) or the ePrivacy Directive (Directive 2002/58/EC), including cookie consent obligations under EU law.

Application Location

As explained in more detail in the Information Wayo Collects and Uses section above, we collect information about your location if you enable location services through the settings in your mobile device, or with your consent, as may be required by law. You can change the privacy settings of your device at any time to turn off the sharing of this location information with the Services. If you choose to turn off location services, this could affect certain features of the Services.
