This policy explains what we collect, why, and your choices. We designed The Fashion & Beauty to be calm — that extends to your data.
What we collect
- Account data: username, Gmail address, and an avatar URL you provide. Passwords are hashed with PBKDF2-SHA256 — we never store or see them in plaintext.
- Session data: a random session token in an HttpOnly, SameSite cookie.
- Content you post: comments tied to your username.
- Usage data: basic request logs (IP, path) used for rate limiting and security.
How we use it
To authenticate you, display your comments, prevent abuse, and improve the Site. We do not sell your personal data.
Cookies
We use a single essential session cookie (nl_sid) required for login. It is HttpOnly and SameSite=Lax to protect against cross-site use. We do not use third-party advertising trackers.
Your rights
- Access the data tied to your account via the waitlist.
- Request deletion of your account and comments by contacting us.
- Sign out at any time to invalidate your session.
Data retention
We keep account and comment data until you request deletion or terminate your account. Rate-limit logs expire automatically within minutes.
