(A Document About Secrets, Written by People Who Try Not to Keep Any)
This Privacy Policy explains how the Infinite Archive (“we,” “us,” “our,” and occasionally “the poor souls maintaining this institution”) collects, uses, stores, and protects your information.
By visiting this site, you agree to the terms below.
If you do not agree, please close the tab gently. The artefacts dislike sudden exits.
1. Information We Collect
We collect the absolute minimum required for civilised interaction and the continued functioning of this Archive.
Information may include:
- Your name (or the one you claim to use)
- Contact details (email, address, smoke-signal coordinates)
- Acquisition details for any fragments you adopt
- Payment information (handled securely by third-party processors who wear more serious ties than we do)
- Website usage data, logs, and analytics—none of which are interesting enough to describe further
We do not collect psychic impressions, browser history, or your childhood regrets.
We are an archive, not a confessional.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information for extremely dull but necessary purposes:
- Processing acquisitions of fragments
- Sending confirmations and occasional existential updates
- Shipping artefacts in your general direction
- Keeping records for accounting or, in extreme cases, archaeology
- Ensuring the website doesn’t collapse under its own ennui
We do not sell your information.
We do not barter it.
We do not whisper it to relics, even if they ask nicely.
3. Third-Party Services
Some tasks are delegated to external service providers—payment processors, analytics tools, postage systems, etc.
They have their own privacy policies, legal teams, and anxieties.
We choose services that demonstrate:
- reasonable security
- basic competence
- no observable desire to overthrow civilisation
Your payment details are never stored on our servers.
They pass directly through secure processors who specialise in protecting numbers people care about.
4. Cookies & Tracking
The site uses cookies.
Not the enjoyable kind.
Cookies help us:
- understand how visitors move through the Archive
- ensure settings remain consistent
- reduce the number of times we must ask you whether you accept cookies
You may disable cookies in your browser.
The site will continue to work, although it may appear slightly offended.
5. Data Storage & Security
We store your data using reasonable security measures designed to keep it safe from:
- unauthorised access
- digital mischief
- well-meaning archivists who click the wrong thing
While no system is perfect, we aim for “significantly safer than leaving it on a post-it note.”
In the unlikely event of a breach, we will notify affected users promptly, once the archivist finishes panicking in the supply closet.
6. Data Retention
We keep your information only as long as:
- laws require,
- business purposes justify,
- or the artefacts insist (which is rare).
When data is no longer needed, it is deleted with the solemn ceremony of dragging it into a digital abyss.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction and level of cosmic alignment, you may have rights such as:
- accessing the data we hold about you
- correcting inaccurate information
- requesting deletion
- objecting to processing
- withdrawing consent
To exercise any of these rights, please send a written request to:
archive@infinitemusearts.com
We will respond as quickly as humanly possible, which is slightly faster than institutionally possible.
8. Children’s Privacy
The Archive does not knowingly collect information from children under the age permitted by applicable law.
If a minor does submit information, we will delete it as soon as it is detected or politely informed by an adult.
9. International Visitors
If you are visiting from another country, please be aware that your data may be transferred to and stored in a jurisdiction whose privacy laws differ from your own.
This is not a conspiracy.
It is simply how the internet works, much to everyone’s disappointment.
10. Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time.
If changes occur, we will post the new version here, ideally before anyone notices.
Continued use of the Archive means you accept the updated policy, or at least tolerate it.
11. Contact
For questions, requests, or philosophical concerns about your data, please contact:
archive@infinitemusearts.com
We read all messages.
Responses depend on the archivist’s caffeine levels and general faith in humanity.
END OF POLICY
You may now return to the relics.
They promise not to watch you too closely.
