This Privacy Policy describes how iamslakin.com (hereinafter referred to as “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares your personal information when you visit our website, buy beats or sound kits, contact us, apply to work with us, or sign up for our newsletter.
1. Information We Collect
a. Personal Information: When you purchase a license for our music, we may collect personal information such as your name, email address, billing address, and payment details.
b. Request Information: Our host, Netlify, processes request data such as IP address and browser type to deliver and secure the site.
c. Device Information: We may collect information about the device you use to access our website, such as your IP address, browser type, and operating system.
d. Contact Messages: Our contact form collects your name, email address, and message so we can respond to your inquiry.
e. Project Applications: Our work 1-on-1 form collects your name, Instagram handle, planned song count, mixing and mastering needs, preferred messaging service (iMessage or WhatsApp), and phone number. We use these details to contact you and discuss your project.
f. Newsletter Signups: Our newsletter forms collect your email address and whether you signed up for beats or loops and kits, so we can send the updates you chose. You can unsubscribe using the link in any newsletter.
g. Your Library (account): We use your checkout email address to send a sign-in link and show the purchases associated with that address. We store sign-in and session records and use limited request information to prevent misuse of the sign-in service.
2. Use of Information
a. We use the information we collect to:
Process and fulfill your orders for beats and sound kits.
Communicate with you about your orders, including order confirmations and updates.
Provide customer support and respond to your inquiries.
Contact you about your project application using your chosen messaging service.
Improve and optimize our website and user experience.
Conduct marketing and promotional activities, including sending you marketing communications about our products and services that may be of interest to you.
3. Data Sharing
This Privacy Policy adheres to the regulations and principles of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) concerning Personal Data handling. We aim to make it straightforward for our customers and the public to understand what Personal Information we collect and store, the reasons for its collection, how we use that information, and individuals’ rights concerning the personal Information in our possession.
a. We may share your personal information with third-party service providers who assist us in processing payments, delivering orders, and providing other services necessary to operate our business. Sound-kit payments are processed by Stripe and sold through Link; beat purchases are processed by BeatStars.
Our contact messages and project applications are collected through Netlify Forms. Newsletter signups pass through our website hosted on Netlify to Brevo, which manages the mailing lists and email delivery.
Customer sign-in emails and purchase emails are delivered through Brevo. Netlify hosts the dashboard and stores its authentication and purchase-access records. Signing in does not subscribe you to a newsletter.
b. We may also share your information with legal authorities or regulatory bodies if required by law or to protect our rights or the rights of others.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
a. We don’t use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. Signing in to Your Library sets one essential session cookie, which keeps you signed in and is removed when you sign out or it expires. The beat player is provided by BeatStars and loads only when you open it; BeatStars may set its own cookies under its privacy policy.
b. You may choose to disable cookies in your web browser settings, but please note that some features of our website may not function properly if cookies are disabled.
c. Customer sign-in uses a secure, essential session cookie that lasts up to seven days. It keeps you signed in to your purchases and is removed when you sign out. It is separate from advertising or newsletter preferences.
5. Data Security
a. We take reasonable measures to protect the security of your personal information and to prevent unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.
6. Your Choices
a. You may opt out of receiving marketing communications from us by following the unsubscribe instructions included in the communication or by contacting us directly.
b. You may also access, update, or delete your personal information by contacting us at hello@iamslakin.com.
7. Children’s Privacy
a. Our website and services are not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 without parental consent.
8. Changes to This Policy
a. We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our business practices or legal requirements. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on our website.
