Privacy information (draft for operator review)
This draft explains how Maple Studio Journal handles information in connection with its enquiry form and basic site functions. No operator identity has been supplied, so the controller or responsible organization is not named here. The operator must add these details and review this page before publication. This page does not claim compliance with any specific privacy law.
Information you provide: the enquiry form requires your name, your email address, a message and an acknowledgement that you have read the privacy information. A telephone number is optional, and you may leave it blank. Please do not include sensitive personal information in your message.
How enquiries are stored: when you submit the form, your details and the time of creation are saved in a local private file on the site's own storage. The file is protected by PHP, and its records are kept in JSONL format. The operator reads submissions through a password-protected local inbox. Submissions are not placed in a customer account, because the site has no user accounts.
No automatic email delivery: no outgoing email service is configured. Your enquiry is therefore not automatically sent to any email address, and you should not expect a confirmation message or an automatic reply. A response depends on the operator reviewing the inbox and choosing to reply.
Retention: no retention schedule is currently configured. The operator must set out how long enquiries are kept and when they are deleted, and then update this page. Until that is done, no specific retention period can be stated.
Sessions and consent storage: the site uses a necessary PHP session. It protects the form against forged requests and limits repeat submissions. Your browser's localStorage holds a single key, site-consent-v1, which records your yes or no choice about optional cookies. That choice stays in your browser and is not part of the enquiry file.
Hosting and third parties: the site's actual host has not been confirmed. OVHcloud with a Canadian region is only a recommendation for future deployment, to be confirmed after hosting is set up. No processing providers are named on this page. If the operator adds any, this page must be updated.
Your choices: you may choose not to submit the form. To ask about, correct or delete an enquiry you have sent, contact the operator through the site's form. Because no operator contact details have been supplied, the operator must add a reliable way to handle such requests before publication.
