Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-05-15

Who we are

RekaGallery (the "Site") is a personal art gallery operated by Sasireka, accessible at rekagallery.com. For any privacy questions, contact us via the contact page.

What information we collect

We collect the minimum information needed to operate the Site:

• Contact form submissions — your name, email, and message, used only to respond to your inquiry.
• Comments — text you post on paintings, which is moderated before public display.
• Anonymous usage data — pages visited, browser type, country (city-level at most). Collected via Cloudflare Web Analytics and/or Google Analytics. No personally identifying information.
• Advertising data — if/when Google AdSense is active, Google may set cookies to serve relevant ads. See Google's ad policy.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies / local storage entries:

• rekagallery.liked.v1 — tracks which paintings you've liked, stored only in your browser.
• rekagallery.admin.basic — admin session token (admin users only).
• Third-party cookies from Google Analytics and Google AdSense when those services are active.

How we use your information

• To respond to contact form submissions.
• To moderate and display comments you have posted.
• To understand which paintings and pages are popular (aggregated analytics).
• To serve and improve display advertising (if applicable).

Sharing your information

We do not sell your information. We share data only with:

• Cloudflare — our hosting + CDN provider (server logs, anonymous analytics).
• Render.com — our backend host for comments and contact form.
• Google — when Google Analytics and/or AdSense are active on the Site.

Affiliate links

Some pages on this Site (notably the Materials List) contain affiliate links to Amazon and other retailers. If you click a link and purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. See the full affiliate disclosure.

Your rights

You can request that we delete any contact submissions or comments you have made. You can clear browser-stored data ("liked paintings") at any time via your browser settings. Email requests via the contact page.

Children's privacy

Some of our content (Kids Work, Beginner classes) is aimed at younger students. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental involvement. Class registrations for minors are collected through a parent/guardian.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above will always reflect the most recent revision.
