If you are in the EU/EEA/UK, we rely on:

  • Consent to send marketing/newsletter emails (you can withdraw at any time)

  • Legitimate interests to secure our Site and understand usage/performance (balanced against your rights)

  • Legal obligations where applicable (e.g., maintaining records of consent)

6) How we share Personal Information

We do not sell your Personal Information.

We share Personal Information only as necessary to operate the Site and newsletter, including with:

Squarespace and Shopify

We use Squarespace and Shopify to support our web infrastructure and/or related services for the Site (for example, forms, site tooling, or integrations used to collect newsletter sign-ups). Squarespace and Shopify may process Personal Information in accordance with its own privacy practices.

We use Brevo as our email marketing/newsletter service provider to store subscriber information and send newsletters. Brevo may process Personal Information (including email engagement data) to deliver and measure email campaigns on our behalf.

Other service providers

We may also share data with:

Service providers are authorized to process Personal Information only for the services they provide to us and are required to protect it.

7) International data transfers

Because AHAVERSE and our service providers (including Squarespace, Shopify and Brevo) may operate globally, your Personal Information may be processed or stored outside your country/region.

Where legally required (including for EU/EEA/UK), we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers, such as contractual protections (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses) or other lawful mechanisms.

We retain Personal Information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy.

Typical retention includes:

  • Subscriber data: retained until you unsubscribe or we delete inactive/invalid addresses
