Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how WhaleMaven collects, uses, stores, and protects information shared through our platform and website.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information you provide directly, information collected automatically through the website, and limited information from third-party sources where relevant to our services.

This may include your name, email address, billing information, company details, device data, browser activity, IP address, and website interaction data.

2. How We Use Information

We use information to operate the platform, support advertiser and publisher relationships, improve the website experience, respond to inquiries, prevent misuse, and meet legal or operational obligations.

We do not use your information outside the scope of this policy without an appropriate legal basis or your consent where required.

3. Sharing Information

We may share information with trusted service providers supporting hosting, analytics, payment processing, and platform operations. We may also share limited information when necessary to support productive business relationships between advertisers and publishers.

We may disclose information where required by law, legal process, or a valid regulatory request. If WhaleMaven is involved in a merger, acquisition, or restructuring, information may transfer as part of that transaction subject to appropriate safeguards.

4. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and comply with legal obligations. When retention is no longer necessary, we delete or anonymize the data where practical.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to certain uses of your personal information. To exercise a request, contact affiliate@whalemaven.com.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We may use cookies and similar technologies to improve site performance, remember preferences, analyze traffic, and improve our services. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, though some features may not function as intended if cookies are disabled.

7. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. International Data Transfers

Because WhaleMaven may operate with partners across multiple countries, information may be processed outside your home jurisdiction. When that happens, we take steps intended to protect information appropriately and in line with applicable law.

9. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to external sites or services. WhaleMaven is not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and we encourage you to review their policies separately.
