Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Velvet ("we", "us") at [DOMAIN] handles information about visitors. Last updated 2026-10-24. Questions: [CONTACT EMAIL].

Information we collect

  • Information you send us, for example when you email [CONTACT EMAIL].
  • Preferences stored on your device (look, favourites, cookie choice) in your browser's localStorage. They are not sent to us.
  • Technical data such as IP address, browser type and pages viewed, collected by our hosting provider and, only if you consent, by analytics and advertising partners.
  • Payment data, if you buy a subscription, is handled by our payment provider (merchant of record). We do not see or store your full card details.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use strictly necessary storage to make the site work and remember your choices. Analytics and advertising cookies are only set after you agree in the cookie banner. See our Cookie Policy. You can change your choice at any time with "Cookie settings" in the footer.

Advertising (Google AdSense and other third parties)

We may show ads served by Google AdSense and other third-party vendors. These vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this and/or other sites. You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google Ads Settings or at www.aboutads.info. Personalised ads rely on a profile of your browsing; you can object to this or withdraw consent at any time with 'Cookie settings' in the footer. See also how Google uses data from partner sites. Visitors in the EU/EEA, UK and Switzerland are asked for consent before any ad or personalisation cookies are used.

Analytics

We may use an analytics service to understand how the site is used (pages visited, approximate location, device type). It only runs after you consent.

Legal bases (GDPR)

We process personal data on the basis of your consent (analytics and ads), our legitimate interests (running and securing the site, answering messages), and contract (subscriptions).

Your rights (EU/EEA and UK visitors)

You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing of your personal data, the right to data portability, and the right to withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier processing. You may also complain to your local data protection authority. To exercise your rights, email [CONTACT EMAIL].

Deleting your data

To ask us to delete your personal data, email [CONTACT EMAIL] with the subject "Delete my data" and the email address you used with us. We will confirm and act within 30 days. Preferences stored on your device (look, favourites, cookie choice) can be removed at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser. Subscription billing records held by our payment provider may need to be kept for tax law.

Sharing and international transfers

We share data only with service providers needed to run the site (hosting, payments, and, with consent, analytics and advertising). Some are outside your country; where required, they use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses. We do not sell your personal data.

Retention

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by law.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal data. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact [CONTACT EMAIL] and we will delete it.

Changes

We may update this policy. The date at the top shows the latest version.
