Privacy Policy

A clear summary of how MAYAN ALFA handles privacy.

This Privacy Policy gives visitors a plain-language overview of how MAYAN ALFA handles personal data connected with website access, direct contact, orders from the online store, customer accounts, and basic project operations.

The site is intentionally simple. MAYAN ALFA does not use advertising trackers, analytics cookies, remarketing, or behavioural profiling. The full legal detail is on the GDPR page.

Data Use

Only the data needed for contact, orders, and site operation is processed.

The information is used to answer messages, process and deliver orders, manage customer accounts, issue invoices, maintain the public website, and keep it secure.

Typical categories

  • Contact details Name, email address, and message details when you contact the project directly.
  • Order and billing data Name, billing address, email, phone if provided, ordered products, order history, and invoices.
  • Customer account Login name, password stored only in hashed form, and saved addresses, if you create an account.
  • Payment information Payments are handled by the payment provider. MAYAN ALFA only sees the payment status and never stores full card numbers.
  • Technical access data IP address, browser information, and server logs required for site delivery, security, and diagnostics.

What the site is not built for

  • No advertising tracking The site does not use advertising trackers or remarketing systems in the current public model.
  • No behavioural profiling The project does not build public behavioural profiles of visitors.
  • No selling of data Personal data is never sold, rented, or shared for marketing purposes.
  • No unnecessary collection Only data needed for the purposes described on this page is requested.

  • Payment providers Process card and online payments for orders.

Tracking Boundary

No advertising trackers, no behavioural profiling, only necessary cookies.

The site uses only cookies that are necessary for it to work: WordPress and WooCommerce cookies for the shopping cart, checkout, customer login, and security. These cookies are not used for tracking and do not require consent.

If advertising or analytics cookies are introduced later, this policy will be updated first and they will only be used after you give consent.
