Privacy Policy

VESSELBORN is owned and operated by Cuby Holdings LLC. This policy covers vesselborn.com and its sites at chronicle.vesselborn.com, codex.vesselborn.com, music.vesselborn.com, and shop.vesselborn.com.

What we collect

Browsing. Reading our sites does not require an account. We do not use advertising or analytics cookies, and we do not track you across other websites. Like any web server, ours records basic request logs (IP address, browser type, the page requested, and the time). We keep those logs for a limited period to keep the sites secure and working.

Contact form. When you write to us, we receive your name, email address, topic, any order reference you add, and your message. The form delivers it to our inbox by email. The website itself does not keep a copy. We use it only to reply to you.

Email updates. If you subscribe, we keep your email address and the date you confirmed. We send a confirmation email first, and your address is added only after you confirm. We use the list only to welcome you and to announce new VESSELBORN releases. The list is kept on our own server and is not shared with any mailing service. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link. Once you unsubscribe we do not email you again, and you can ask us to delete your address entirely.

Videos and music. The home page shows our newest YouTube video. Its preview image is stored on our own server, so nothing is loaded from YouTube until you press play. When you do, the video plays through YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com), and Google’s privacy policy applies to that playback. Our original music plays from music.vesselborn.com, which is our own server.

Purchases. Orders on shop.vesselborn.com are paid through Stripe. We never see or store your card number. Stripe shares your name, email address, and order details with us so we can deliver your download and help with any problem.

Support payments. If you support VESSELBORN at vesselborn.com/support/, you pay on a checkout page run by Stripe. We never see or store your card number. Stripe shares your name, email address, the amount, the name you choose for your certificate, whether you want it on the Patrons wall, and any message you add. We keep these on our own server to send your certificate, to show your name on the Patrons wall if you choose, and to keep records of support. You can ask us to remove your name from the wall at any time.

Services we rely on

Our sites are delivered through Cloudflare, which handles connection data to protect the sites from attacks and keep them fast. Our forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to confirm that a person, and not an automated program, is sending them. Cloudflare may set a strictly necessary security cookie to do this. Payments are handled by Stripe. Videos you choose to play are delivered by YouTube, a Google service. Each of these providers processes data under its own privacy policy.

What we do not do

We do not sell or rent personal information. We share it only with the providers named above, as needed to run the sites, or when the law requires it.

Your choices

You can ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, through our contact page. You can unsubscribe from email updates at any time from the link in any message.

Children

Our sites are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

If we change how we handle information, we will update this page and the date at the top.
