Privacy: what UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 means for this form

Nationally, UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 is the UK version of GDPR: have a lawful reason for each question, keep data only as long as needed, and let people ask for their data.

CalendarForm keeps each business's answers separate, lets you export them to CSV, and does not use them for anything else. Link your own privacy notice in the form's description.

Booking times in Edinburgh

Edinburgh changes its clocks for daylight saving, so a Mini session at 18:00 stays at 18:00 local time all year. CalendarForm skips times that do not exist on the night the clocks go forward.

Customers booking from abroad still see the time in Europe/London, with the zone printed next to it, and their confirmation email repeats it.

Set it up in four steps

Sign up free, pick the closest business type, and rename the starter form to "Photography booking form".
Set the time zone to Europe/London and add your opening hours.
Edit the questions above, add the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 consent line, and attach the form to your booking page.
Share your link. Each booking sends an email confirmation with a cancel link, and a reminder 24 hours before.
