This Privacy Policy explains how Kinsey Atelier (“Kinsey Atelier,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and shares your personal information when you visit, browse, or make a purchase through www.kinseyatelier.com (the “Site”).

PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

When you visit our Site, we may automatically collect certain information about your device, including your web browser, IP address, time zone, device type, operating system, and certain cookies installed on your device. As you browse the Site, we may also collect information about the webpages or products you view, the websites or search terms that referred you to our Site, and information about how you interact with the Site.

We refer to this automatically collected information as “Device Information.”

We collect Device Information through technologies such as:

We refer to this information as “Order Information.”

When we use the term “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we mean both Device Information and Order Information.

You may be able to control certain personalized advertising preferences through the settings provided by your browser, device, advertising platforms, or third-party service providers.

You may also unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time by using the “unsubscribe” link included in our marketing emails.

Please note that opting out of promotional communications does not prevent us from sending important transactional communications, such as order confirmations, shipping updates, or customer-service messages.
