B) Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. It is Lemon Magazine’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect from you when you visit our website, https://mylemonmagazine.com/, subscribe to our newsletter, or place an order in our shop.

Information we collect

Log data

When you visit our website, our servers may automatically log the standard data provided by your browser. This data is considered “non-identifying information”, as it does not personally identify you on its own. It may include your computer’s IP address, your browser type and version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on each page, and other details. We may also collect data about the device you’re using to access our website. This data may include the device type, operating system, unique device identifiers, device settings, and geo-location data. What we collect can depend on the individual settings of your device and software. We recommend checking the policies of your device manufacturer to learn what information they make available to us.

Personal information

We may ask for personal information, such as:

• Name
• Email address
• Billing and shipping address (for print magazine orders)
• Phone number (for order or delivery purposes)
• Payment information (processed by our payment provider — see “Third-party access to information” below)

This data is considered “identifying information”, as it can personally identify you. We only request personal information relevant to providing you with a service — such as fulfilling a shop order, managing your account, or sending our newsletter — and only use it to help provide or improve this service.

How we collect information

We collect information by fair and lawful means, with your knowledge and consent — for example when you place an order, create an account, subscribe to our newsletter, or fill in the contact form. We let you know why we’re collecting it and how it will be used. Any user of the site is free to refuse our request for this information, with the understanding that we may be unable to provide some of the desired services (such as processing an order or sending the newsletter) without it.

Use of information

We may use a combination of identifying and non-identifying information to understand who our readers are, how they use our website and shop, and how we may improve their experience in future. We do not publicly disclose the details of this information, but may share aggregated and anonymized versions of this information, for example in website usage trend reports. If you subscribe to our newsletter or opt in when placing an order, we may use your email address to send you updates about Lemon Magazine, new issues, and promotional content we believe may be of interest to you. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link included in every newsletter email.

Processing and storage of data

Personal information we collect is stored and processed in Portugal, within the European Union, or where we or our partners, affiliates, and third-party providers maintain facilities. Where a service provider we use is based outside the European Union — for example our email marketing provider, Mailchimp (The Rocket Science Group LLC, USA) — we only work with providers offering appropriate safeguards for international data transfers, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or, where applicable, certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. We only retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide a service or to improve our services in future. We protect this data within commercially acceptable means to prevent loss and theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. That said, we cannot guarantee that any method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. If you request that your personal information be deleted, or it is no longer relevant to our operations, we will delete it from our systems within a reasonable timeframe.

Cookies

We use “cookies” to collect information about you and your activity on our website. A cookie is a small piece of data that our website stores on your computer, and accesses each time you visit, so we can understand how you use our website. This helps us serve you content based on the preferences you have specified. Please refer to our Cookie Policy below for more information.

Third-party access to information

We use the following third-party services, which may access personal information solely to perform specific tasks on our behalf:

• Analytics tracking (Google, via Google Site Kit) — to understand how visitors use our website.
• Email marketing (Mailchimp) — to send our newsletter and manage subscriber preferences.
• Payment processing (our WooCommerce payment gateway) — to securely process shop payments. We do not store your full card details on our servers.
• Order fulfilment and shipping — to deliver print magazine orders to your address.

We do not share any personally identifying information with these providers beyond what is necessary for them to perform their function, and we do not grant them permission to disclose or use our data for any other purpose. We will refuse government and law enforcement requests for information that we believe are too broad or unrelated to their stated purpose. However, we may cooperate if we believe the information requested is necessary and appropriate to comply with the law, protect our rights and property, protect the safety of the public or any person, prevent a crime, or prevent what we believe to be illegal activity. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Children’s privacy

Lemon Magazine is a lifestyle publication for parents and families. While our editorial content covers kids’ fashion and family life, our website and shop are directed at adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information without a parent or guardian’s consent, please contact us at hello@mylemonmagazine.com so we can remove it.

Limits of our policy

This privacy policy applies only to the collection and processing of data by Lemon Magazine. We only work with partners, affiliates, and third-party providers whose privacy policies align with ours. However, we cannot accept responsibility for their privacy practices. Our website may link to external sites, including brand and retailer pages, that are not operated by us. Please be aware that we have no control over the content and policies of those sites, and cannot accept responsibility for their respective privacy practices.

Changes to this policy

At our discretion, we may change this privacy policy to reflect current acceptable practices. We will take reasonable steps to let users know about changes via our website. If you have a registered account on https://mylemonmagazine.com/, we will notify you using the contact details associated with your account. Your continued use of this site after any changes to this policy will be regarded as acceptance of our practices around privacy and personal information.

You have the right to correct, update, or request that we delete any personal information we hold.

C) Cookie Policy

We use cookies to help improve your experience of https://mylemonmagazine.com/. This cookie policy is part of Lemon Magazine’s privacy policy, and covers the use of cookies between your device and our site. We also provide basic information on third-party services we may use, which may also use cookies as part of their service. This policy does not cover their cookies. If you don’t wish to accept cookies from us, you should instruct your browser to refuse cookies from https://mylemonmagazine.com/, or use the cookie preference banner shown when you first visit our site. In such a case, we may be unable to provide you with some of your desired content and services, such as the shopping cart.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit, typically containing information about the website itself, a unique identifier that allows the site to recognize your web browser when you return, additional data that serves the purpose of the cookie, and the lifespan of the cookie itself. Cookies are used to enable certain features (e.g. keeping items in your shopping basket, or logging in), track site usage (e.g. analytics), store your user settings (e.g. timezone, notification preferences), and to personalize your content (e.g. advertising, language).

Cookies set by the website you are visiting are usually referred to as “first-party cookies”, and typically only track your activity on that particular site. Cookies set by other sites and companies (i.e. third parties) are called “third-party cookies”, and can be used to track you on other websites that use the same third-party service.

Types of cookies and how we use them

Essential cookies

Essential cookies are crucial to your experience of a website, enabling core features like user logins, account management, the shopping cart, and payment processing. We use essential cookies to enable the shop and other core functions on our website.

Performance cookies

Performance cookies are used in the analysis of how visitors use a website, without collecting personal information about them. Generally, this information is anonymized and aggregated with information tracked across all site visitors, to help us understand visitor usage patterns, identify and diagnose problems or errors readers may encounter, and make better strategic decisions in improving the overall website experience. These cookies may be set by our website (first-party) or by third-party services such as Google Analytics. We use performance cookies on our website.

Functionality cookies

Functionality cookies are used to collect information about your device and any settings you may configure on our website (like language and timezone settings). With this information, we can provide you with customized, enhanced, or optimized content and services. These cookies may be set by our website (first-party) or by third-party providers such as our newsletter and shop plugins. We use functionality cookies to enable certain functions on our website.

Targeting/advertising cookies

Targeting/advertising cookies are used to determine what promotional content is more relevant and appropriate to you and your interests. They may be used to deliver targeted advertising or to limit the number of times you see an advertisement. These cookies may be set by our website (first-party) or by third-party services. We may use targeting/advertising cookies on our website, subject to your consent given through our cookie banner.

Third-party cookies on our website

We use a small number of third-party companies on our website — for example Google (analytics) and Mailchimp (newsletter and shop marketing). These third parties may have access to information collected by us in the course of performing their functions on our behalf. They may also set their own third-party cookies in order to deliver their services. Because of how cookies work, we cannot access these cookies, nor the data they contain, and other parties cannot access the cookies we own. Third-party cookies used on our website are not covered by our cookie policy, as we do not have access to or control over these cookies.

Our commitment to data privacy

We review the privacy policies of all our partners before employing their services to ensure their practices align with our commitments to your privacy. We will never knowingly include third-party services that compromise or violate the privacy of our users.

How you can control or opt out of cookies

When you first visit our website, a cookie banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your choice at any time by clearing your cookies and revisiting the site, or through your browser settings. Most browsers are configured to accept cookies by default, but you can update this setting to refuse cookies, or to notify you when a website is attempting to set or update a cookie. If you browse our website from multiple devices, you may need to update your settings on each individual device. While you can decline cookies through your browser or our cookie banner, some features of our site — such as the shopping cart — may not work as intended if essential cookies are disabled.
