Who operates this website

Information we collect
Information you provide
We collect information you choose to provide. This may include your name, email address, message, form entries, comment content, comment metadata, and other information you submit through this website.
Technical and usage information
Our website, hosting provider, and service providers may collect technical data such as IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, dates and times, security events, and server log information.
Cookies and analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies for website functions, security, preferences, analytics, and affiliate attribution. Google Analytics 4 is configured with measurement ID G-FEB1VP7S5M. Where consent is required by law, analytics and marketing cookies should not run until you consent.
Affiliate links
Island Life uses affiliate links, including links related to HighLevel. An affiliate platform may receive click, referral, device, cookie, or attribution data needed to identify a referral. See our Affiliate Disclosure.
Shop and checkout information
Purchases from the Island Life shop are processed through Fourthwall. Fourthwall and the payment providers available through Fourthwall handle checkout and payment data. Island Life does not receive your full payment card number. Fourthwall may provide Island Life with order information needed for support, fulfillment, refunds, accounting, and customer service.
Why we use information
We use personal information to operate and secure the website, respond to messages, display and moderate comments, provide requested information, process or support purchases, measure site use, understand referrals, prevent fraud, keep records, and meet legal duties.
Legal bases for EU and UK visitors
Consent
We rely on consent where required for analytics, marketing cookies, or marketing email. You may withdraw consent at any time.
Contract
We may process information when needed to provide a product or service you request or to take steps related to a purchase.
Legitimate interests
We may process information for website security, fraud prevention, service improvement, support, recordkeeping, and understanding site performance when those interests do not override your rights.
Legal obligation
We may retain or disclose information when required for tax, accounting, consumer protection, legal claims, or other legal duties.
Service providers
We use service providers to run the website and shop. These include Hostinger for hosting and related infrastructure, WordPress for website publishing and comments, Google for analytics, Fourthwall for shop and checkout functions, and payment processors used through Fourthwall. Other tools may be added when needed to operate the site.
International transfers
Your information may be processed in the United States and in other countries where our service providers store or process data. Privacy laws in those countries may differ from the laws where you live. Where applicable law requires transfer safeguards, the relevant provider or controller is expected to use an approved legal mechanism.
How long we keep information
We keep information only as long as needed for the reason it was collected, including support, security, tax, accounting, fraud prevention, dispute handling, and legal requirements. Comment records may remain while the comment is published. Server and security logs are kept according to hosting and security settings. Analytics retention depends on the active Google Analytics configuration. Order and transaction records may be retained for accounting, tax, refund, fraud, and legal purposes.
Marketing email
Island Life sends marketing email only when you opt in or when another lawful basis permits it. Marketing messages will include an unsubscribe method. Unsubscribing does not stop transactional or service messages connected with a purchase or request.
United States privacy rights
Privacy rights vary by state. Depending on where you live and whether a law applies to Island Life, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, a copy of certain information, or information about how personal information is used or shared. Email steven@143studio.com to make a request. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
California privacy notice
If the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act apply to Island Life and to your information, you may have rights to know, access, correct, delete, and receive information about certain disclosures. You may also have rights relating to sale or sharing and certain sensitive personal information.
Island Life does not sell personal information for money. Island Life does not intend to sell personal information as the term is commonly understood. Some analytics or affiliate technologies may involve disclosures or attribution activity subject to privacy laws. Where California law treats an activity as a sale or sharing and the law applies to Island Life, we will honor applicable opt out rights.
To request access, correction, or deletion, email steven@143studio.com. We will not discriminate against you for exercising a privacy right.
EU and UK privacy rights
If the GDPR or UK GDPR applies to you, you may have rights to access your personal data, correct inaccurate data, request deletion, restrict processing, object to processing, receive portable data in applicable cases, and withdraw consent. You may also lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority that applies where you live.
These rights are not absolute. Legal exceptions may apply.
Children
Island Life is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a person under 16 submitted personal information, email steven@143studio.com.
Security
We use hosting, access controls, software updates, and service provider safeguards intended to reduce unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. No website or transmission method is risk free.
Third party websites
Island Life links to third party websites, including Fourthwall, HighLevel, government resources, and other services. Their privacy practices are controlled by their own terms and policies.
