This Privacy Policy explains how Wooom ehf. (“Wooom”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and shares your personal data when you visit our website (wooom.is) or book a place on one of our retreats.
We are committed to protecting your personal data and handling it in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Icelandic data protection law (Act No. 90/2018).
Please read this policy carefully. If you have any questions, contact us at wooom@wooom.is.

This data is necessary to process your reservation, manage the payment, and communicate with you about the retreat.
2.2 Website usage data
When you visit wooom.is, we collect technical data about your visit through cookies and similar technologies, including:
This data is collected only with your consent, via our cookie consent tool (CookieHub). You can withdraw your consent at any time by adjusting your cookie preferences.
2.3 Communications
If you contact us by email, we retain a record of that correspondence including your email address and the content of your messages.
2.4 Marketing communications
If you have opted in to receive updates and news from Wooom, we will use your email address to send you relevant communications. You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email, or by contacting us at wooom@wooom.is.
2.5 Health, dietary, and special requirements
To provide the safest and most personalised retreat experience, we may ask you to share information about relevant health conditions, dietary requirements, and allergies. This may include information that qualifies as special category data under GDPR Article 9 (such as health or medical information).
We process this information only with your explicit consent (GDPR Article 9(2)(a)) and use it solely to accommodate your needs during the retreat. This data is not shared with third parties beyond retreat staff and any directly involved service providers (such as catering), and is deleted following the retreat.
2.6 Photography and video at the retreat
We occasionally photograph or film retreat activities for use in our marketing materials, website, and social media. These images or videos may include participants.
We will always ask for your explicit written consent before photographing or filming you. Participation is entirely voluntary and has no bearing on your retreat experience. If you consent and later change your mind, you may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us at wooom@wooom.is; we will remove your images from future use as promptly as possible.
We only process your personal data where we have a lawful basis to do so under GDPR Article 6. The bases we rely on are:
Contract performance (Article 6(1)(b)): When you book a retreat, processing your booking data is necessary to fulfil our contract with you — including confirming your reservation, processing payment, and communicating logistics.
Consent (Article 6(1)(a)): For website analytics cookies, advertising tracking (Google Ads, Meta Pixel), and marketing emails, we rely on your freely given consent. You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)): We may process limited data to maintain the security of our website, prevent fraud, and improve our services, where this does not override your rights and interests.
We use cookies and similar technologies on wooom.is. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website.
We use the following categories of cookies:
Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the website to function. These cannot be disabled.
Analytics cookies: We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use our site. This data is anonymised and aggregated. These cookies are only set with your consent.
Marketing cookies: We use Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram) and Google Ads tracking to measure the performance of our advertising. These cookies are only set with your consent.
You can manage your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie settings link in the footer of our website.
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with trusted third-party service providers who process it on our behalf, or where legally required. These include:
Google LLC: We use Google Analytics to analyse website traffic, and Google Ads for advertising. Google may process data in the United States. Google participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
Meta Platforms, Inc.: We use the Meta Pixel to measure the performance of our Instagram and Facebook advertising. Meta may process data in the United States. Meta participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
Payment processor: We use a third-party payment provider to process retreat deposits and balances securely. We do not store your full payment card details.
All third parties are contractually required to handle your data in accordance with GDPR and to use it only for the specific purposes we have agreed.
Some of our service providers are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA), primarily in the United States. Where we transfer personal data outside the EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including:
Booking and reservation data: We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil your retreat booking and for a period of up to 5 years thereafter, to comply with legal and accounting obligations.
Website analytics data: Aggregated and anonymised usage data is retained for up to 26 months in Google Analytics (the platform default).
Marketing communications: We retain your email address on our marketing list until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove it.
Correspondence: Emails and support communications are retained for up to 3 years.
When data is no longer needed, we delete it securely or anonymise it so it can no longer be linked to you.
Under GDPR, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:
Right of access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Right to rectification: You can ask us to correct any inaccurate or incomplete data.
Right to erasure: You can ask us to delete your personal data, subject to certain legal exceptions.
Right to restriction: You can ask us to pause processing of your data in certain circumstances.
Right to data portability: You can request a copy of the data you have provided to us in a structured, machine-readable format.
Right to object: You can object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.
Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw it at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at wooom@wooom.is. We will respond within 30 days.
