Privacy & GDPR

Last editetd on 15 June 2026
JoomBook is built with privacy compliance from the ground up. This page explains the GDPR-relevant settings.
Privacy Consent
Navigate to JoomBook → Settings → Frontend Settings.
- Enable Privacy Consent - Required checkbox in the booking form. Customers must accept it before a booking can be completed.
- Privacy Policy URL - Link to your privacy policy page (required when the checkbox is enabled).
Data Storage
All customer data is stored exclusively in your local Joomla database. No data is transmitted to external services - with the exception of:
- Google Calendar Sync (Full Plan, optional): Only appointment metadata without personal customer data is transmitted.
- License Validation: Only the license key and domain are sent to the license server.
Only data that is strictly necessary for operating the system is transmitted. It never contains personal customer data within the meaning of the GDPR - for Google Calendar synchronisation this is purely anonymised appointment data, and for license validation it is only the domain of your installation.
Deleting Customer Data
You can delete individual customers and their booking data at any time under JoomBook → Customers. When the JoomBook package is completely uninstalled, all JoomBook database tables - and therefore all stored customer data - are removed from the database completely and irrevocably.
