Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

AkaMenezBeat Store respects the privacy of visitors and users who submit information through the website. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information is collected, why it is collected, how it is used, and how it is handled when you submit a beat purchase request or contact request.

By submitting the contact form, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy and authorize the processing of the information necessary to manage your request.

2. Information We Collect

When you submit a request through the AkaMenezBeat Store website, we may collect the following information:

• Your name.
• Your email address.
• Your Instagram username, if you choose to provide it.
• Information about the selected beat, such as title, BPM, musical key, type, and price.
• The message included in the request, including the information automatically provided by the website or any modifications made by you.

The Instagram username is optional. You are not required to provide it in order to submit a request.

3. Purpose of Processing

The information submitted through the contact form is used for purposes directly related to your request, including:

• Receiving and reviewing your beat purchase request.
• Identifying the beat you are interested in.
• Contacting you regarding your request.
• Sending a confirmation email to the email address you provided.
• Managing communication related to a potential sale and, when applicable, completing the corresponding transaction.

AkaMenezBeat Store does not use the information collected through this form for unrelated advertising or marketing purposes.

4. Authorization and Consent

Before submitting the contact form, you must authorize AkaMenezBeat Store to process the personal information provided for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

The authorization is limited to the purposes necessary to manage your request and the related communication and sales process.

If you do not provide the required authorization, the request cannot be submitted through the website.

5. Email Processing

AkaMenezBeat Store uses Resend as an email delivery service to process transactional emails generated by the contact form.

When a request is submitted, the information necessary to process that request is used to:

• Send the request details to the AkaMenezBeat Store administrator.
• Send a confirmation message to the email address provided by the user.

The email may contain the user's name, email address, Instagram username when provided, the selected beat information, and the submitted message.

6. Cloudflare Turnstile

AkaMenezBeat Store uses Cloudflare Turnstile to help protect the contact form from automated requests, bots, and abuse.

Turnstile is used as a security mechanism to verify that a request is being submitted through the website by a legitimate user rather than an automated process.

AkaMenezBeat Store does not use Turnstile for advertising, analytics, or behavioral tracking.

7. Rate Limiting and Security

The contact endpoint is protected by rate limiting and additional anti-abuse controls. These measures are intended to reduce automated submissions, spam, and excessive requests.

Appropriate technical and organizational measures are applied to protect the information handled by the website against unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, or loss.

8. Cloudflare R2 and Audio Files

AkaMenezBeat Store uses Cloudflare R2 for the storage of audio files and website media.

Beat audio files stored in R2 are publicly accessible through their corresponding resources. The public availability of an audio preview does not grant ownership or copyright rights over the underlying musical work.

The contact form does not require users to provide personal information in order to listen to publicly available beat previews.

9. Cookies and Tracking

AkaMenezBeat Store does not currently use advertising cookies, analytics cookies, Meta Pixel, Google Analytics, or similar third-party tracking technologies for behavioral or advertising purposes.

The website may use browser storage required for application functionality, such as temporarily maintaining the selected beat during the contact request process. This information is handled by the user's browser and is not used by AkaMenezBeat Store as an advertising or analytics mechanism.

10. Data Retention

Information submitted through the contact process is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to manage the request and, when applicable, complete the related sale.

Once the corresponding sales process has been completed and the information is no longer reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, the request may be deleted as part of the regular data-cleaning process.

Information may be retained for a longer period where this is necessary to comply with applicable legal obligations or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

11. User Rights

Depending on applicable data protection law, users may have rights regarding their personal information, including the right to:

• Request access to the personal information associated with their request.
• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Request deletion of information when legally applicable.
• Request information about the processing of their personal data.
• Withdraw authorization when legally applicable, subject to any limitations imposed by law or obligations that require the information to be retained.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

AkaMenezBeat Store may update this Privacy Policy when the website, its services, its data-processing practices, or applicable requirements change.

The updated version will be published on this page together with its corresponding update date.
