Privacy Policy

Last updated August 2026

INDIEARTMARK is operated by Alis Volare Inc. ("we", "us"). This policy explains what we collect when you use the site, why we collect it, and what you can do about it. We do not sell personal data and we do not run advertising, so there is no ad network profiling you here.

1.What we collect

  • Account data. Your email address, and a display name if you set one. We sign you in with emailed magic links, so we do not store a password.
  • Creator data. For invited creators: handle, bio, profile and cover images, links, and the storefront content you upload.
  • Activity and safety data. Follows, comments, bookmarks, memberships, purchases, mute/block choices, user reports, and administrative moderation records, so the site can provide your library, creator activity totals, and abuse-prevention controls.
  • Payment data. Card details are entered on Stripe, never on our servers. We store the resulting record of a purchase or subscription — amount, date, item, status — and Stripe's identifiers for it.
  • Technical data. Standard server logs and error reports used to keep the site running and secure.

2.Why we use it

To run your account and sign you in, to deliver what you bought, to pay creators and collect the platform fee, to show creators anonymous-level totals about their own audience, to prevent fraud and abuse, and to meet legal and tax obligations.

3.Who else processes it

We use a small number of processors: our hosting and database provider, Stripe for payments and creator payouts, and our email provider for magic links and receipts. They act on our instructions and may not use your data for their own marketing. Creators can see the purchases, memberships, follows and comments that relate to their own storefront.

4.Cookies and storage

We use cookies and browser storage for the essentials only: keeping you signed in, remembering your light or dark theme choice, and keeping the site secure. There are no advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

5.How long we keep it

Account and content data is kept while your account exists. Records of payments are kept for as long as tax and accounting law requires, even after an account is deleted. Logs are kept for a short retention window and then discarded.

6.Your choices

You can ask for a copy of your data, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete your account and content. Deleting a creator account removes the public storefront; purchase records that we must keep for accounting are retained in a minimal form. Depending on where you live you may also have the right to object to processing or complain to a data protection authority.

7.Children

The site is for adults. You must be at least 18 to hold an account, buy, or sell here.

8.Security

Access to your content is enforced at the database level, private files are served through short-lived authorised links, and sensitive payout identifiers are never exposed to the browser. No system is perfect, so tell us promptly if you spot something wrong.

9.Changes and contact

If this policy changes in a material way we will update the date above and note it on the site. To reach us about privacy, use the contact links in the footer. See also our Terms of Service.
