How Aureon Collective collects, uses, and protects your personal data.
Last updated: July 21, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how [LEGAL ENTITY NAME — e.g. Aureon Collective LLC] (“Aureon Collective,” “we,” “us,” or “ our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit aureoncollective.io, create an account, subscribe to our newsletter, or purchase a premium membership (together, the “Service”). By using the Service you agree to this Policy.
Information we collect
We collect the following categories of information:
- Account information. When you create an account, our authentication provider (Clerk) collects your email address, name (if provided), and login credentials or third-party sign-in identifiers.
- Payment information. Premium payments are processed by Stripe. We do not receive or store your full card number; Stripe handles card data directly. We retain a Stripe customer identifier and your subscription status so we can manage your membership.
- Newsletter information. If you subscribe, our email provider (beehiiv) stores your email address and engagement data (such as opens and clicks) and a membership tier field.
- Usage and device data. Like most websites, our host (Vercel) and our systems automatically log technical data such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps.
- Cookies. We use strictly necessary cookies to keep you signed in (set by Clerk). See “Cookies” below.
How we use your information
- To provide and maintain the Service, including your account and access to premium content.
- To process payments and manage subscriptions.
- To send the newsletter and service-related emails you have requested.
- To secure the Service, prevent fraud, and enforce our Terms.
- To understand usage and improve the Service.
- To comply with legal obligations.
How we share your information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers that operate the Service, each acting as our processor:
- Clerk — authentication and account management. Clerk Privacy Policy
- Stripe — payment processing. Stripe Privacy Policy
- beehiiv — email newsletter delivery. beehiiv Privacy Policy
- Vercel — website hosting and infrastructure. Vercel Privacy Policy
We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect our rights, or in connection with a business transfer.
Cookies
We use cookies that are strictly necessary for authentication and security (for example, to keep you signed in). We do not currently use advertising cookies. If we add analytics or marketing cookies in the future, we will update this Policy and, where required, request your consent.
Data retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, and thereafter as required to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example, under the EU/UK GDPR or the California Consumer Privacy Act), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. You can exercise these rights by contacting us at [CONTACT EMAIL — e.g. hello@aureoncollective.io]. You may also unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in any email.
International transfers
Our providers may process your data in countries other than your own, including the United States. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for such transfers.
Children’s privacy
The Service is not directed to children, and you must be at least 18 to create an account or purchase a membership. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
Security
We and our providers use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, by additional notice.
