Privacy Policy for Via Ryza

Effective Date: June 9, 2026

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how Via Ryza ("I," "my," or "me") collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit my artist website. I am committed to respecting your privacy.

2. What Information I Collect

I only collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to me:

• Via the Newsletter Signup Form: Your email address.

• Via the Contact Form: Your name and email address, plus any message you choose to send.

I do not collect payment information, physical addresses, or phone numbers. My website does not use cookies, analytics trackers, or any automatic data collection tools.

3. How I Use Your Information

I use your information only for the following purposes:

• Newsletter emails: To send you occasional updates about my new music, show announcements, and artist news.

• Contact form replies: To respond directly to your message using the email address you provided.

• Never for sales: I do not sell merchandise, tickets, or services, and I will never try to sell you anything.

4. How I Share Your Information

I do not sell, rent, or trade your email address or any personal information to third parties. I only share your information with essential service providers that help me operate the website:

• Email Marketing Service: I use Hostinger email newsletter service or an equivelant service, to manage my newsletter list. They store your email address securely and allow me to send updates.

• Website Hosting: My website host stores contact form submissions temporarily.

Both providers are contractually required to keep your data secure and use it only as instructed by me.

5. Data Storage & Security

• Your email address is stored by my email marketing service provider.

• Contact form messages are stored on my website host's servers and forwarded to my personal email inbox. I will delete contact form submissions after replying to you if you ask me to.

• I take reasonable steps to protect your information, but no internet transmission is 100% secure.

6. Your Rights & Choices

You have the following rights over your data:

• Unsubscribe: Every newsletter email includes an "Unsubscribe" link. Clicking it will permanently remove your email from my list within 48 hours.

• Request deletion: You can email me through this website's contact form and ask me to delete any contact form message history I still have.

• Access: You can ask me what data I hold about you (typically just your email address and any messages you've sent).

I will never contact you after you unsubscribe, except to confirm a deletion request if you ask.

7. Children's Privacy

My website is intended for general audiences and not directed at children under 13. I do not knowingly collect information from children.

8. Changes to This Policy

If I ever change this policy, I will update the "Effective Date" at the top. Since this is a simple artist site, I will not send email notifications about policy changes.

9. Contact Me

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, or if you want to request deletion of your data, please contact me using the contact form on this website. I will respond to your message using the email address you provide in that form.

Response Time Notice: I am a solo artist managing this website on my own. I do not check contact form submissions daily or on a fixed schedule. I will make every effort to respond to privacy-related requests (such as data deletion or access inquiries) within 30 days. For general messages or fan inquiries, response times may be slower or not guaranteed. Thank you for your patience.

Note: I do not publish a direct email address to reduce spam, but the contact form reaches me immediately.
