THE PRIVACY CODEX

I. THE OATH OF PRIVACY

When you enter Acethetix, you do not “sign up” — you step into the Sanctum.

In this space, your data is not currency. It is trust, and we guard it as such.

This Privacy Codex explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it — in both spirit and law.

II. WHO WE ARE

Acethetix (“we,” “our,” or “the Lore”) is a fashion-art collective operating under Acethetix Studios Pvt. Ltd., India.

Our mission: to forge sacred wearable relics and protect the mythos of digital creators.

Our email for all privacy matters: contact@acethetix.xyz

III. WHAT WE COLLECT

We only collect what is required to sustain the Sanctum and serve you meaningfully.

• Account & Identity Data: Name, email, phone, address (for order delivery).
• Transaction Data: Purchase history, order details, payment confirmations.
• Usage Data: Logins, device information, time spent, interactions with drops or pages.
• Communication Data: Messages, feedback, or ritual submissions via forms or email.

We do not collect unnecessary personal identifiers (like Aadhaar, political opinions, or biometrics).

We do not sell or rent your data. Ever.

IV. WHY WE COLLECT IT

Every piece of data has a ritual purpose:

• To fulfill orders – ensuring your relics reach you safely.
• To sustain connection – newsletters, lore updates, and event invitations.
• To improve the Sanctum – analytics to refine user experience and portal design.
• To enforce sacred security – fraud prevention, verification, and compliance.

If you choose not to share certain details, some parts of the Sanctum may remain closed to you.

V. HOW WE PROTECT IT

Our servers are secured with encryption protocols and guarded by multi-layer verification. We use SSL certificates, firewalls, and restricted internal access.

Only authorized keepers (select team members bound by NDA) may access user data — and only for operational duties.

In the event of any data breach, you will be notified immediately, in accordance with global privacy laws.

VI. YOUR RIGHTS AS A WITNESS

You hold the right to:

• Access your personal data.
• Request correction or deletion.
• Withdraw consent for communication.
• Request a copy of your stored information.

To exercise these rights, email privacy@acethetix.xyz with your registered email ID.

We may verify your identity before acting on your request — for your protection and ours.

VII. COOKIES, TRACKERS & ANALYTICS

We use cookies and analytics tools (like Google Analytics or Meta Pixel) only to study site performance and user behavior — not to stalk you.

You may disable cookies through your browser settings, though it may affect the flow of your ritual journey.

VIII. THIRD-PARTY INTERACTIONS

If you access external links (e.g., artist pages, payment gateways, social media), remember: you’ve left the Sanctum.

Those realms follow their own privacy codes, and Acethetix is not responsible for their conduct.

IX. DATA RETENTION & DELETION

Your data is retained only as long as needed to fulfill the purpose it was collected for — or as required by law.

Once the purpose fades, so does the record.

You may request deletion at any time. Upon final deletion, your name will be purged from all backups and databases.

X. YOUTH & THE SANCTUM

Acethetix is a ritual space for individuals aged 18 and above.

We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If such data is found, it will be erased immediately upon discovery.

XI. CHANGES TO THE CODEX

The Lore may update this Codex periodically to reflect new laws or internal rituals.

The revision date above always indicates the most recent version.

Continued use of the Sanctum signifies your acceptance of the updated terms.

XII. FINAL WORD OF THE LORE

Your data belongs to you.

We guard it not because the law demands it — but because trust is sacred.

Every click, every relic, every trace of your presence within the Sanctum is protected as part of the myth.
