Privacy Policy

This policy describes how Maison du Bien ("we," "us") handles information on maisondubien.com. We collect as little as possible: we run no advertising and no third-party marketing scripts. The one measurement tool we use, Google Analytics, loads only if you accept it.

What we collect

Email address — if you choose to join our register (waitlist), we collect the email address you submit, solely to contact you about Maison du Bien. We send one confirmation to that address when you join, and we keep the address on a mailing list held by our email provider so we can write when the register opens.

Name and shipping address — if you submit our private envoi form, we collect the name and address you provide, solely to send you the parcel you requested. We ask for your consent on that form before you submit it.

One functional cookie — entering a valid access code sets a single cookie ("mdb_access") that keeps the site unlocked for your browser for up to 30 days. It contains no personal information and tracks nothing.

Analytics — we use Google Analytics to count visits. How we ask depends on where you are. If you visit from the United States, visits are counted when you arrive, and you can decline at any time with the "Cookies" link at the foot of every page; if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat that as declining and count nothing. If you visit from anywhere else, a bar asks first and nothing from Google loads until you accept. To apply the right rule we set one cookie ("mdb_region") holding the word "optout" or "ask"; it says nothing about you. When counting is on, Google Analytics sets cookies ("_ga" and "_ga_…", kept for up to two years) and records pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type, and the actions of joining the register or entering a code. IP addresses are truncated. We use this only to understand how the site is used. Google processes this data on our behalf and may transfer it to the United States. Advertising features, ad personalization, and cross-site tracking are switched off. Your choice is remembered in your browser's local storage ("mdb_consent"). To change it, use the "Cookies" link at the foot of any page. Declining stops the counting at once and removes the cookies Google Analytics had set.

Server logs — our hosting provider records standard request logs (IP address, user agent, timestamps) for security and operations, retained on a short rolling basis.

How it's used and shared

We use the information above only to operate the site, deliver what you asked for, and protect against abuse (including rate limiting). We do not sell or rent personal information, and we do not share it with anyone except the service providers who run the site for us: Vercel (hosting), Resend (email delivery and the register mailing list), and, where analytics is on as described above, Google (Google Analytics). Each processes data only on our instructions. We may disclose information if the law requires it.

Retention

Register emails are kept until you ask to be removed or the register closes; replying to any email from us with a removal request is enough. Envoi addresses are used for the single shipment you requested. Analytics data is retained by Google Analytics for 14 months. You can request deletion at any time.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (including under the California Consumer Privacy Act and, where applicable, the GDPR), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing. We honor such requests regardless of jurisdiction: write to hello@maisondubien.com and we will respond within the time the law requires. We do not discriminate against anyone for exercising these rights. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA, so there is nothing to opt out of.

Children

The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Security

Traffic is encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Access to submitted information is limited to the maison. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable measures appropriate to the small amount of data we hold.

Changes

If our practices change, this page will change first, with a new effective date. Material changes to how we use already-collected information will be announced to the addresses on the register.
