Privacy Policy
1. Our Commitment to Your Privacy
Your data privacy is highly critical to our operations at Hexxet’s Magic Comics. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, utilize, and protect your information when you purchase standalone comic books, register for site memberships, or use our digital currency and bank payment options.
2. Information We Collect and Why
To provide a functional e-commerce store and handle membership permissions through our platform, we collect the following standard operational data:
- Account Information: When you register an account or purchase a membership, we store your username, email address, password hashes, and membership tier details to manage your access permissions.
- Transactional Data: When making a purchase via WooCommerce, we log basic order details (items purchased, transaction timestamps, and order values) to facilitate your digital delivery.
- Payment Processing Data: We do not collect or store credit card numbers or private crypto keys. Payments are handled via secure third-party gateway providers (e.g., CoinGate). For cryptocurrency orders, public blockchain transaction data and wallet addresses are safely processed. For users opting to pay via European bank transfer, necessary processing data—including your IBAN, BIC code, and bank account holder name—will be securely processed to validate transaction settlement and prevent fraudulent chargebacks.
- Third-Party Platform Integration Data (Patreon & SubscribeStar): If you link your external Patreon or SubscribeStar.art membership to your website account to unlock premium permissions, we process and store specific authentication metrics passed by those networks. This data includes your platform-specific email address, account username, and active pledge tier status. We collect this data solely to match your off-site support status with your local site dashboard permissions.
3. Data Protection and Third-Party Disclosures
Hexxet’s Magic Comics strictly avoids selling, renting, or disclosing the contents of private customer emails, transactional records, or personal customer profiles to unauthorized third-party operators.
Customer details will only be passed to external platforms under the following critical business conditions:
- Service Providers: To securely process transactions via certified third-party payment gateways (e.g., executing digital currency validation through CoinGate) and to host our secure platform files.
- Platform Protection: To adequately protect the website infrastructure, standard operating business assets, and safe platform access rules for all customers.
- Legal Compliance: To maintain strict compliance with valid legal enforcement subpoenas, identity validation frameworks, or enforceable judicial search warrants.
- Emergency Situations: To assist regional law enforcement authorities if platform infrastructure inadvertently flags data pertaining directly to severe criminal misconduct.
4. Cookies and Tracking Data
Our website uses standard operational cookies to keep you securely logged into your account dashboard, maintain items inside your WooCommerce shopping cart, and ensure your premium membership access remains uninterrupted. You can disable cookies via your browser settings, but doing so might break the checkout and membership functions of the store.
5. Your Rights and Data Retention
We retain your account profile and download history for as long as your account remains active so you can perform re-downloads. If you would like to request a complete deletion of your account and personal details from our store database, you can contact us at any time.
