Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 2025

At Gallery Aurora, privacy is not just a feature—it's our foundation. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our platform.

Gallery Aurora is operated by C5M (Continent 5 Media Group, Inc.). By using Gallery Aurora, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Our Privacy Principles

No Tracking: We do not track your browsing behavior, use tracking cookies, or employ ad pixels.

No Advertising: Gallery Aurora is completely ad-free. We do not sell your data to advertisers.

No Public Browsing: Your albums are private. They can only be accessed via unique QR codes you generate.

Minimal Data Collection: We only collect what is necessary to provide the service.

2. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect:

  • Email address (required for account management)
  • Full name (required for account identification)
  • Date of birth (required for age verification)
  • Password (encrypted and stored securely)
  • Parent/guardian email (if you are under 18)

Payment Information

Payment processing is handled by secure third-party providers. We do not store your full credit card information. We only store billing information necessary for subscription management.

Content You Upload

We store the images and albums you upload to Gallery Aurora. These are stored securely and are only accessible through the QR codes you generate.

Usage Data

We collect minimal usage data necessary for service operation, such as login timestamps and subscription status. We do not track browsing patterns or create user profiles.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information solely to:

  • Provide and maintain the Gallery Aurora service
  • Process your subscription payments
  • Send you important service-related communications
  • Verify your age and eligibility for the service
  • Respond to your support requests
  • Ensure the security and integrity of the platform

We do NOT:

  • Sell your data to third parties
  • Use your data for advertising purposes
  • Share your albums or images publicly
  • Track your browsing behavior across other websites

4. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information:

  • Encrypted data transmission (HTTPS/TLS)
  • Encrypted password storage (bcrypt hashing)
  • Secure cloud storage for your images
  • Regular security audits and updates
  • Access controls limiting who can view your content

However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. QR Code Privacy

Gallery Aurora uses QR codes to share albums privately:

  • Each QR code is unique and can be revoked at any time
  • Viewers do not need accounts to view albums via QR codes
  • QR codes provide temporary, protected access to image copies (not originals)
  • You control who has access by distributing QR codes
  • Revoking a QR code immediately cuts off access

Important: Once you share a QR code, anyone who has it can access the album. Only share QR codes with people you trust. You can revoke access at any time.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Correction: Update or correct your account information
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your account and data
  • Portability: Export your albums and data
  • Withdrawal: Cancel your subscription at any time

To exercise these rights, please contact us at support@galleryaurora.com.

7. Children's Privacy

Gallery Aurora requires users to be at least 18 years old to create an account. Users under 18 must have verifiable parental or guardian consent, including:

  • Parent/guardian email address
  • Explicit consent from the parent/guardian
  • Agreement to these Terms and Privacy Policy by the parent/guardian

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental consent. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13 without consent, please contact us immediately.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. Your continued use of Gallery Aurora after such changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
