Pivacy Statement

At Illume Art, we understand the importance of protecting your privacy when using our website. This privacy policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information in accordance with all applicable privacy laws, including the Canadian Anti-Spam Law (CASL).

When you visit our website, we may collect certain information about your device and browsing activity, such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you visit. This information is used to improve the user experience and provide customized content and advertising.

If you choose to provide us with personal information, such as your name, email address, or phone number, we will only use it for the purposes for which it was collected, such as to fulfill your order or provide you with marketing communications (if you have opted-in to receive them). We will not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third party unless we are required to do so by law.

We take appropriate measures to ensure the security of your personal information, including using SSL encryption to protect data transmitted over the internet and storing it securely on our servers. We limit access to your personal information to only those employees who require access to it for the purposes of carrying out their job responsibilities.

If you have provided us with your contact information and have opted-in to receive marketing communications from us, you may unsubscribe at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in any of our emails, or by contacting us directly. We will promptly remove your information from our marketing list. If you have any questions or concerns about our privacy policy or the use of your personal information on our website, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Comments

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

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded content from other websites

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

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 with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. 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.

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
