1. Overview
This Privacy Policy describes how Saloria ("we," "us," "our," or "the Operator") collects, uses, discloses, retains, and protects information when you visit or interact with saloria.vip (the "Service"). We are committed to handling your personal data transparently and in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
This Policy applies to all visitors to the Service, whether or not you have registered an account. It is incorporated into our Terms of Service by reference. If you do not agree with the practices described here, you should discontinue use of the Service.
2. Applicable Laws and Regulations
We operate the Service in compliance with major international data protection frameworks. Depending on where you live and how you interact with the Service, the following regulations may grant you specific rights regarding your personal data:
- European Union and EEA — GDPR. Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the General Data Protection Regulation, governs the processing of personal data of individuals located within the European Economic Area. Under the GDPR, our role depends on the circumstances, but we act as a Controller for the personal data described in this Policy.
- Brazil — LGPD. Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (Law No. 13,709/2018) regulates the processing of personal data of individuals located in Brazil. It establishes a set of legal bases for processing, rights for data subjects, and obligations for controllers and operators.
- California, USA — CCPA/CPRA. The California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, grants California residents the right to know, delete, correct, and opt out of the sale or sharing of their personal information.
- United Kingdom — UK GDPR. The UK General Data Protection Regulation, together with the Data Protection Act 2018, applies to personal data of individuals located in the United Kingdom.
- Other jurisdictions. To the extent that any other applicable data protection law applies to you (for example, Canada's PIPEDA, Australia's Privacy Act, India's DPDP Act, or South Africa's POPIA), we will honor the rights granted by such law, including rights of access, correction, deletion, objection, and data portability.
Where the GDPR, UK GDPR, or LGPD applies, the legal bases we rely on to process your personal data include: (a) consent, which you may withdraw at any time; (b) our legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the Service; (c) performance of a contract with you, where applicable; and (d) compliance with legal obligations to which we are subject.
3. Data We Collect
We collect only the minimum personal data necessary to operate the Service. The categories of data we may collect include:
- Voluntarily provided information. Name, email address, and any message content you provide when contacting us, subscribing to newsletters, or otherwise communicating with us.
- Usage data. Pages visited, articles read, time spent, referring URLs, and general reading patterns. This data is typically tied to an IP address or a pseudonymous identifier and may be aggregated.
- Technical data. IP address (truncated where possible), browser type and version, operating system, device characteristics, screen resolution, and language preferences.
- Cookies and similar technologies. First-party cookies or browser local storage for essential functionality, preferences, and analytics. Where we work with advertising or analytics partners, those partners may also set cookies subject to their own policies.
- Correspondence data. Records of communications between us, including the content of emails and messages you send, retained for quality, support, and legal compliance purposes.
We do not knowingly collect special categories of personal data — such as data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health information, sex life, or biometric data — unless you voluntarily include such information in correspondence, in which case we will delete it upon request.
An account is not required to read our editorial content. Where accounts are offered (for example, for newsletters or future interactive features), you may register and manage your data through the mechanisms described in this Policy.
4. How We Use Your Data
We process your personal data for the following purposes and corresponding legal bases:
- To operate, maintain, and improve the Service, including content delivery, page performance monitoring, and editorial planning — based on our legitimate interests and, where applicable, the performance of a contract with you.
- To understand aggregate readership trends and which topics our audience values — based on our legitimate interests in editorial and product improvement.
- To respond to your inquiries, feedback, and correspondence — based on our legitimate interests and the necessity of performing a contract where you have engaged us.
- To send editorial newsletters or service updates where you have subscribed — based on your consent, which you may withdraw at any time.
- To display advertising, including personalized (interest-based) advertising delivered by third-party ad networks — based on your consent where required by applicable law, and on our legitimate interests where consent is not required. You can opt out of personalized advertising using the links provided in Section 8.
- To measure and analyze the performance of advertising campaigns — based on our legitimate interests.
- To detect, prevent, and respond to fraud, security incidents, and abuse of the Service — based on our legitimate interests and legal obligations.
- To comply with legal obligations, including record-keeping and responses to lawful requests from authorities — based on our legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal data to third parties for monetary consideration, as "sale" is defined under the CCPA/CPRA. We do not rent your personal data to third parties for their independent commercial purposes.
5. How We Share Your Data
We may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients, strictly on a need-to-know basis and under appropriate contractual or legal safeguards:
- Service providers and processors. Hosting providers, content delivery networks (CDNs), email and newsletter delivery services, and analytics vendors that help us operate the Service. These providers process data on our behalf and are instructed not to use your data for their own purposes.
- Advertising and measurement partners. Ad networks, demand-side platforms, and ad measurement services that may collect or receive data from the Service and use it to deliver and measure advertising. These partners operate under their own privacy policies and legal bases, and many offer opt-out tools described in Section 8.
- Legal and regulatory authorities. Where required by applicable law, court order, or government request, or to protect our rights, property, safety, or that of our users and the public.
- Business transfers. In connection with a merger, acquisition, asset sale, financing, or similar transaction, we may transfer personal data to the successor entity, subject to continued compliance with this Policy.
- Your consent. With any other recipient where you have given consent to the sharing.
6. International Data Transfers
Your personal data may be processed in countries other than your own, including countries that may not have the same level of data protection. Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on recognized transfer mechanisms — such as the European Commission's adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, or other legally recognized transfer tools — to ensure your data receives an essentially equivalent level of protection when transferred outside the EEA, the UK, or another jurisdiction with comparable standards.
Where the LGPD applies, international transfers are conducted in accordance with the conditions set out in Article 33 of the LGPD, including transfers to countries that provide an adequate level of protection, or subject to contractual clauses, binding corporate rules, or another recognized legal basis.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We and our partners use cookies, web beacons, SDKs, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the Service, remember your preferences, understand usage, measure advertising performance, and (where permitted) deliver personalized advertising. The categories of cookies include:
- Essential cookies. Required for the basic functionality of the Service, such as maintaining sessions or security. These cannot be disabled if you wish to use the Service.
- Preference cookies. Remember your interface settings, such as theme or language, to improve your reading experience.
- Analytics cookies. Help us understand how readers engage with the Service so we can improve coverage and design.
- Advertising cookies. Set by us or our advertising partners to display and measure ads, including personalized ads where permitted. These partners may use cookies to build a profile of your interests and show relevant ads on this and other websites.
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most browsers also offer a "Do Not Track" feature; because there is no consistent industry standard for interpreting such signals, we treat them as requests to limit personalized advertising where technically feasible.
8. Personalized Advertising and Your Opt-Out Choices
Some of the advertising shown on or in connection with the Service may be personalized — that is, tailored to your interests based on your activity across this and other websites. This personalization is provided by third-party ad networks, including Google, whose use of advertising cookies allows them and their partners to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites.
You have the following options to opt out of personalized advertising and to understand how partners use data on this and partner sites:
- Google Ad Center — turn off personalized ads: https://myadcenter.google.com/personalizationoff
- Google — How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services (partner sites): https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
- Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) opt-out: https://optout.aboutads.info
- Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) opt-out: https://optout.networkadvertising.org
Opting out of personalized advertising does not mean you will stop seeing advertising; it means that the advertising you see will be less tailored to your interests. Browser cookie controls, device-level ad-reset identifiers, and "Do Not Track" signals may further limit personalization. For California residents, the CCPA/CPRA right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising can be exercised using the links above.
9. Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, to comply with legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. Specifically:
- Usage and technical data is typically retained in aggregated or pseudonymous form for up to 26 months, after which it is deleted or further anonymized.
- Newsletter subscription data is retained until you unsubscribe, after which we may keep minimal records of the opt-out for audit purposes.
- Correspondence data (such as emails and messages) is retained for the period necessary to respond to your inquiry and to meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, typically up to 24 months unless a longer period is legally required.
- Account data is retained while your account is active and for a reasonable period after deletion to allow recovery, audit, or legal compliance, after which it is removed or anonymized.
Where we are required to retain data to comply with a legal obligation, the data will be restricted to processing only for that purpose until the retention period ends.
10. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access. Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Correction. Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Deletion. Request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal retention obligations.
- Restriction. Request that we limit processing of your data in certain circumstances.
- Objection. Object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing, including personalized advertising.
- Portability. Receive a copy of the personal data you provided to us in a structured, machine-readable format, and have it transmitted to another controller where technically feasible.
- Withdrawal of consent. Withdraw consent at any time for processing based on consent, including newsletter subscriptions and personalized advertising, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
- Opt-out of sale or sharing. Where applicable under the CCPA/CPRA, opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
- Sensitive data rights. Where applicable under the CPRA, limit the use and disclosure of your sensitive personal information.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law (for example, within one month under the GDPR, within 15 days for certain CCPA requests, or within the period set by the LGPD). We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
If you believe that we have not complied with your data protection rights, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority — for example, the supervisory authority in your EU/EEA member state, the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), or the Brazilian Data Protection Authority (ANPD).
11. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the equivalent age of consent in the relevant jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at [email protected] and we will take steps to delete such data.
12. Security
We take reasonable technical, organizational, and administrative measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or loss. These include encryption of data in transit (TLS), access controls, and regular reviews of our practices. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We will notify you and the relevant authorities of any data breach in accordance with applicable law.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date and, where appropriate, we will provide notice through the Service or by direct communication where we hold your contact details. We will, where required by law, obtain your consent for material changes that introduce new processing purposes or new categories of data.
By continuing to access or use the Service after the effective date of any revised Policy, you confirm your acceptance of the updated Policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
