Privacy Policy

Last updated: [June 4, 2025]

Welcome to AlgianLab — the digital portfolio and creative studio of Antoine Algian. This page explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you visit https://algianlab.com.

1. Who We Are

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

2. What Personal Data We Collect and Why

📝 Comments

If you leave comments on the site (e.g., under blog posts), we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as your IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam.
An anonymized hash of your email may be sent to the Gravatar service to display your avatar. See Gravatar’s privacy policy.

📬 Contact Forms

When you contact us through a form, we collect your name, email, and message content. This information is used only to respond to your inquiry and is not shared with third parties.

🛍️ Purchases & Shop

If you make a purchase (e.g., art prints, 3D objects, or digital downloads), we may collect:

  • Name, email, billing/shipping address

  • Payment details (processed via Stripe, PayPal, or Gumroad)

We do not store your payment info. Third-party services handle secure transactions and may store data per their own privacy policies.

📊 Analytics

We use Google Analytics to monitor site performance and improve content. This collects anonymized data such as:

  • IP address (masked)

  • Browser/device type

  • Time on page and navigation patterns

Analytics data is stored in aggregate and is not linked to individuals.

📸 Media Uploads

If you upload images to the website (e.g., as a user or contributor), avoid including location (EXIF GPS) data. Visitors may be able to extract that data from images.

🍪 Cookies

If you leave a comment, you can opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies — for convenience. These last one year.

If you log in (e.g., to a shop account), additional cookies track your session and display preferences. Most login cookies expire after two days, except “Remember Me” (two weeks). Editing or publishing content sets a post ID cookie (1-day expiry).

A cookie banner may be used to allow or reject tracking.

3. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles or project pages may include embedded content from platforms like:

  • YouTube

  • Instagram

  • Behance

  • OpenSea or NFT marketplaces

These sites may collect data, use cookies, and track your interaction — as if you were visiting them directly.

4. Who We Share Your Data With

  • Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service (e.g., Akismet).

  • Payment processing is securely handled by Stripe, PayPal, or Gumroad.

  • Email or newsletter signups (if used) may be processed via Mailchimp or similar services.

We do not sell or rent your personal data.

5. How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely.

  • Contact form submissions are stored for up to 12 months.

  • Purchase records are stored as required for tax/legal purposes.

  • If you register on the site (e.g., for shop access), your user profile data is stored until deleted.

6. Your Rights Over Your Data

You can request to:

  • Receive an exported file of your personal data

  • Have us delete any personal data we hold about you (excluding legal or security exceptions)

Email: hello@algianlab.com for requests.

7. Where Your Data Is Sent

  • Visitor comments may be filtered through automated spam detection.

  • Payment and analytics data may be transmitted securely to third-party processors.
