Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to DAMANZEE ("we," "our," or "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website at damanzee.com (the "Site").

2. Information We Collect

Information You Provide

• Email address — when you subscribe to our newsletter via our Mailchimp-powered signup form.

Information Collected Automatically

• Analytics data — we use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to collect anonymized usage data including pages visited, time on site, device type, browser, and approximate geographic location. This data is used to understand how visitors use our Site and improve the experience.
• Local storage data — we use your browser's localStorage to save your style tile preferences (saved/wishlisted items) and theme preference (light/dark mode). This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

3. How We Use Your Information

• To send you our weekly style digest newsletter (only if you subscribe)
• To analyse site traffic and improve our content and user experience
• To remember your saved styles and theme preferences locally on your device

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Google Analytics 4 — for anonymized website analytics. Google's privacy policy can be found at policies.google.com/privacy.
• Mailchimp — for newsletter delivery. Mailchimp's privacy policy can be found at mailchimp.com/legal/privacy.
• Sanity CMS — for content management and image delivery.
• Vercel — for website hosting and deployment.

5. Cookies & Local Storage

We use cookies set by Google Analytics to distinguish users and track sessions. These are standard analytics cookies. We also use localStorage (not cookies) to store your saved tiles and theme preference — this data stays on your device.

You can control cookie behavior through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect our ability to understand site usage patterns but will not impact your ability to browse the Site.

6. Data Retention

Newsletter subscriber data is retained in Mailchimp until you unsubscribe. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics' default retention settings (14 months). Local storage data persists until you clear your browser data.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in each email
• Clear your saved tiles and preferences by clearing your browser's localStorage
• Opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on
• Request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by contacting us

8. Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information. Our website is served over HTTPS, and we follow security best practices in our infrastructure and code. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

9. Children's Privacy

Our Site is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
