Privacy policy
What we keep about you, and why.
Morning Masterpiece is a small art newsletter. We collect only what it takes to send you artworks, remember your answers, and take payment. We don't sell data, show ads, or use tracking cookies.
Who is responsible
Morning Masterpiece is run by a private person. The data controller is Domas Voroneckas, Ožkinių sodų 2-oji g. 29, LT-08434 Vilnius, Lithuania. For anything about your data, write to hello@morningmasterpiece.eu.
What we collect
- When you sign up: your email address, your name, and how many artworks you want each morning.
- While you subscribe: which artworks we sent you, which answer button you pressed and when, your points and title, and your send-time and settings. This is what lets the newsletter decide when to show you a piece again.
- If you pay: your plan and the date you're paid up to, plus a customer reference from Stripe. Card details go straight to Stripe and never reach us.
- Technical logs: when you open a link or load an image, our server records your IP address and browser type. These logs are kept for a limited time, are deleted automatically as newer logs replace them, and are used only to keep the service running and to spot abuse.
Why we use it
- To provide the newsletter you asked for - sending emails, scheduling artworks, keeping your score, handling your subscription. The legal basis is the contract between us.
- To keep the service secure and working - logs, failure alerts, blocking fake signups. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in running a reliable service.
We never use your data for advertising, and we don't build any profile of you beyond the learning history the newsletter itself needs.
Who else handles it
- Hosting - an EU hosting provider runs our server, email and backups.
- Payments - Stripe processes payments and invoices if you subscribe.
- Service alerts - a messaging service delivers internal alerts to us. They never include your full email address.
Our providers act only on our instructions, except that Stripe also processes payment data as an independent controller, under its own privacy policy. Some providers may process data outside the EU under the safeguards the GDPR requires.
How long we keep it
While you're subscribed, we keep everything above. If you unsubscribe, we keep your record so that you can come back with your history and score intact - unless you ask us to delete it, in which case we remove it. Payment records are kept as long as tax law requires. Backups roll over within 90 days, so deleted data disappears from them within that time.
Your rights
You can ask to see the data we hold about you, correct it, receive a copy, or have it deleted, and you can object to how we use it. Write to hello@morningmasterpiece.eu and we'll reply within a month. You can unsubscribe at any time from the link at the foot of every email.
If you think we've mishandled your data, you can complain to your data protection authority - in Lithuania that is the State Data Protection Inspectorate (vdai.lrv.lt).
Cookies
This website sets no cookies and runs no analytics. Payment pages hosted by Stripe use their own cookies, covered by Stripe's privacy policy.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that matters, we'll say so in the newsletter before it takes effect.
