Privacy Policy

We take the protection of your personal data seriously. This website is a static site: it sets no cookies of its own, uses no analytics or tracking tools, and contains no contact forms. Payments are handled off-site by Stripe, as described below.

Hosting

This website is hosted by GitHub Pages, a service of GitHub, Inc., 88 Colin P. Kelly Jr. St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. When you visit the site, GitHub automatically processes technical data such as your IP address in server logs to deliver the website and ensure security. Details can be found in the GitHub Privacy Statement.

Domain & DNS (Cloudflare)

The domain artofwalks.com is managed via Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. Cloudflare processes DNS requests and, where its network sits in front of the site, technical connection data such as your IP address to deliver and secure the website. See the Cloudflare Privacy Policy for details.

Web fonts

This site loads the "Satoshi" typeface from Fontshare, a service of the Indian Type Foundry. When the page loads, your browser connects to Fontshare's servers and transmits your IP address in order to deliver the font files. See the Fontshare terms for details.

Payments (Stripe)

Payments on this site are processed by Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland. When you start a checkout you leave this website and enter Stripe's payment page. Stripe processes the data required for the payment — for example your name, email address, billing address, payment method details, IP address and device information — on its own responsibility, in order to carry out the payment and to prevent fraud. We receive from Stripe only the confirmation that a payment succeeded together with your name, email address and the package purchased; we never receive or store your full card details. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) b GDPR (performance of a contract) and Art. 6 (1) f GDPR (legitimate interest in secure, fraud-free payment processing). Stripe may transfer data to the USA on the basis of the EU standard contractual clauses. See the Stripe Privacy Policy for details.

If you contact us by email or phone, the data you provide — name, contact details, message content, and the photos you send us — is processed solely to handle your inquiry and produce your order (Art. 6 (1) b GDPR). We delete your data once it is no longer required for the business relationship, unless statutory retention periods apply. Order and invoice data is kept for the statutory retention periods under commercial and tax law (Art. 6 (1) c GDPR).

Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and objection regarding your personal data, as well as the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise these rights, contact us at the email address above.
