Provènce Magazine (“Provènce,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you access our website, newsletters, subscriptions, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).

By using our Services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

• Information You Provide Directly
• • Email addresses when you subscribe to our newsletter.
  • Payment details (processed securely via third-party providers).
  • Basic account information such as your name or billing address (only if required for subscription billing).

Important: We do not permanently store your personal data on our servers. Newsletter email addresses are held securely by third-party email platforms, and all payment information is handled directly by secure payment processors.

• Information Collected Automatically
  • Device/browser details, IP addresses, and cookies (see Section 6).
  • This data is used in aggregated or anonymized form and is not stored in a way that identifies you personally.
• Third-Party Information
  • If you interact with us through social media or external partners, any data shared with us is managed in line with their privacy policies and not retained by us beyond what is necessary.

2. How We Use Your Information
We use limited data only to:

• Send newsletters and updates (if you opt in).
• Process subscription payments through secure third parties.
• Monitor and improve website performance (using anonymized analytics).
• We do not sell, rent, or permanently retain your personal data.

We only share data with trusted service providers strictly as necessary:
Email Platforms store your newsletter opt-in email addresses.

• Payment Processors process transactions securely.
• We do not store or have access to your full payment details.

4. Payment Processing

All payment transactions are handled directly by third-party providers. Provènce does not collect, save, or store your card or bank details.

5. Data Storage & Retention

• We do not permanently store your personal information.
  • Emails are kept only in newsletter software and can be deleted upon request.
• Payment details never pass through or remain on our servers.
• Aggregated analytics data may be retained but cannot identify individual users.

6. Cookies & Tracking
We use cookies to improve website performance. These do not personally identify you and can be disabled at any time via your browser.

7. Your Rights
You have the right to:

• Unsubscribe from newsletters at any time.
• Request deletion of your information from our email provider’s system.
• Request confirmation that no personal data is stored by us directly.

8. Children’s Privacy
We do not knowingly collect or store any data from children under 13 (or under 16 in the EU/UK).

9. Data Security
While we use third-party providers with strong safeguards, you acknowledge that no system is 100% secure. We minimize risk by not storing sensitive data ourselves.
