Privacy Policy - Miodoi Illustration

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://miodoiillustration.com/

Thank you for visiting Miodoi Illustration.
We are an independent creative brand offering illustrated products designed to inspire joy and beauty in your everyday life.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you interact with our website and services. By continuing to use our site, you acknowledge and consent to the terms outlined in this document.

The Personal Data We Use to Make Your Experience Better

1. Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string (also called a hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if available) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

We collect this information to maintain a safe and respectful space for conversation and to ensure a positive experience for all visitors.

2. Media

If you upload images to the website — for example, through product reviews, contact forms, or blog comments — please avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the site.

We do not collect media files for any purpose other than displaying your submitted content as intended. Any media you voluntarily upload will remain visible only in the context in which it was shared.

3. Contact Forms

When you reach out to us through the contact form, we collect the information you provide — such as your name, email address, and message content — so we can respond to your inquiry.

This information is used solely for customer support, collaboration inquiries, or questions related to our products and services. We do not use the information submitted through the contact form for marketing purposes unless you explicitly opt in.

We respect your privacy and only retain contact form submissions for as long as necessary to assist you.

4. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles or pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles) from other websites. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you visited the other website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content — including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

We only embed content that enhances your experience, but we encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you interact with.

5. How Long We Retain Your Data

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected — such as responding to inquiries, processing orders, or maintaining a record of your interaction with our site.

For example:

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically.
If you contact us via the contact form, we may retain your message for customer service purposes, but not for marketing unless you opt in.
Order-related data may be kept as long as required by accounting and legal obligations.

You can always contact us if you wish to request the deletion of your personal data, subject to any obligations we may have to retain certain information for legal or administrative purposes.

6. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

You have the right to control your personal information. If you have an account on this site, have left comments, or submitted a contact form, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you.

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes (such as order records or legal compliance).

7. Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to help keep our website safe and free of unwanted content.

In some cases, your data may be processed by trusted third-party services (such as payment processors or shipping platforms) that help us operate our website and fulfill your orders. These services only receive the information necessary to perform their specific tasks and are obligated to protect your data in accordance with privacy laws.

We do not sell or share your personal data with unrelated third parties for marketing purposes.
