Privacy Policy

We collect information to operate our pages, respond to inquiries, and improve the learning experience. The type of information depends on what you do on the site.

Information you provide may include:

• Name and email address if you send a message or request information.
• Message content and any information you choose to include.
• Preferences you set (theme/contrast) when you use on-page controls.

Information collected automatically may include:

• Device and browser metadata (approximate) such as user agent, language, and viewport size.
• Basic security and diagnostic information such as timestamps and requested URL paths.
• Cookie and local storage choices you set for this site.

We use personal information for legitimate operational purposes, including:

• Responding to requests (e.g., answering questions about fragrance courses).
• Service operations (maintaining site functionality, security, and performance).
• Preference management (remembering your theme/contrast settings when you choose to store them).
• Compliance (fraud prevention, logging, and legal obligations).

We do not sell your personal information. If we ever introduce optional analytics or marketing technologies, we will request consent through the cookie banner and allow you to opt out.

We use small pieces of storage (cookies and local storage) to support site features.

Essential storage (always on):

• Cookie banner state (so it doesn’t show repeatedly after you choose).
• Security-related flags (if needed for basic protection).

Preference storage (optional):

• Theme and contrast settings, stored in localStorage when you toggle them.

Optional categories (only if you consent):

• Analytics (aggregated measurement)
• Marketing (ad personalization)

You can change your choice anytime via Preferences.

Depending on your location and the context, we may rely on one or more of the following legal bases:

• Consent (e.g., optional cookies).
• Contract (e.g., to respond to a direct request you initiate).
• Legitimate interests (e.g., security, maintaining service quality, preventing abuse).
• Legal obligation (e.g., compliance with applicable law and requests from authorities).

Where consent is required, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting processing that occurred before withdrawal.

We may share information with vendors who help us operate the site (e.g., hosting, email delivery). They act as processors and may only process data on our instructions, where applicable.

We may also disclose information to comply with legal requirements, protect rights and safety, and prevent fraud or abuse.

If data is transferred across borders, we will use appropriate safeguards as required by applicable law.

Retention. We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including compliance, dispute resolution, and enforcement of agreements.

Security. We use a combination of administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. If you believe your interaction with us is no longer secure, contact us at [email protected].

Depending on your location, you may have rights such as:

• Access, correction, or deletion of personal data.
• Portability of certain data.
• Restriction or objection to certain processing.
• Withdrawal of consent for optional processing.

To submit a request, use our on-page Data request form or contact us directly.
