EU and UK Privacy Notice

Effective September 2, 2026

If you are in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, this notice supplements our Privacy Policy under the General Data Protection Regulation and UK GDPR. WakieUp is the controller of your personal data.

1. Legal bases

  • Performance of a contract: creating your account, storing and delivering Wakies at the scheduled moment, processing WakieUp+ and gifts.
  • Legitimate interests: keeping WakieUp secure, preventing abuse, and understanding how the app is used in aggregate.
  • Consent: cookies and analytics on this website, marketing communications, and ad personalization in the free tier. You can withdraw consent at any time.
  • Legal obligation: responding to lawful requests and meeting our child-safety reporting duties.

2. Cookies on this website

Non-essential cookies and analytics are off until you accept them in the consent banner. You can change your choice at any time through Privacy Choices in the footer. Essential storage (your consent choice itself) is always allowed.

3. International transfers

WakieUp is operated from the United States. Where personal data leaves the EEA or UK we rely on the European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum with our service providers.

4. Your rights

  • Access, rectification, and erasure of your personal data.
  • Restriction of processing, and objection to processing based on legitimate interests.
  • Data portability for data you provided to us.
  • Withdrawal of consent at any time, without affecting processing before withdrawal.
  • The right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

To exercise a right, use Settings in the app, the contact form on this site, or email [email protected]. We respond within one month.

5. Retention and children

We keep personal data only as long as your account is active and as needed to deliver scheduled Wakies, then delete or anonymize it as described in the Privacy Policy. WakieUp is not directed to children under 13, and accounts for users under 16 in the EU require parental consent.
