Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Capes Jean-marie (“I”, “me”, “my”, or “Yoolk”) collects, uses, and protects personal data when you visit https://yoolk.ninja (the “Site”), browse the portfolio, create an account, or place an order in the store. I run this Site as a private individual, not as a business.
I am committed to processing your data lawfully and transparently, in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the French Loi Informatique et Libertés.
1. Who is responsible for your data
The person responsible for your data is:
- Name: Capes Jean-marie
- Status: Private individual (non-professional). The store is used to occasionally sell items from my personal collection.
- Address: held on file by my web host; available to competent authorities on request.
- Country: France
- Contact: via the contact page at https://yoolk.ninja/contact/
For any question about this policy or about your personal data, please use the contact form above.
2. What data I collect, and why
I only collect the data needed to run the Site and fulfil orders. I do not sell your data, I do not display advertising, and I do not run third-party analytics or tracking.
| Data | When it is collected | Purpose | Legal basis (GDPR Art. 6) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Account details (name, email, password) | When you create a WooCommerce account | Manage your account, let you track orders and shipments | Performance of a contract |
| Order & billing details (name, billing/shipping address, email, optional phone) | When you place an order | Process and ship your order | Performance of a contract |
| Order history | After purchases | Let you review past orders; keep a record in case of dispute | Contract / legitimate interest |
| Shipping details (name, address) | At checkout | Hand the parcel to La Poste / Colissimo for delivery | Performance of a contract |
| Messages you send | When you use the contact form | Reply to your enquiry | Legitimate interest |
| Technical/server logs (e.g. IP address, browser type) | Automatically, by the web server | Site security and stability, abuse prevention | Legitimate interest |
| Comments | When you leave a comment | Display and moderate your comment | Legitimate interest / consent |
I do not knowingly collect special-category data (health, political opinions, etc.) and ask you not to send any through the contact form.
3. Payments
Payments are processed by PayPal. I never receive or store your full card or bank details — that information goes directly to PayPal, which acts as an independent data controller for the payment.
When you pay, I receive only confirmation of the transaction and the information needed to fulfil the order (name, address, amount, order reference). PayPal’s own handling of your data is governed by its privacy statement: https://www.paypal.com/privacy
4. Shipping
Orders are shipped via La Poste – Colissimo (delivery against signature, France and international). To deliver your parcel, I share your name and shipping address with La Poste. La Poste processes this data as part of the carriage contract; see https://www.laposte.fr (privacy section).
For international orders, customs authorities in the destination country may also process shipping data where required by law.
5. Cookies and tracking
The Site is designed to run without analytics or marketing cookies. The only cookies used are the strictly necessary / functional cookies set by WordPress and WooCommerce, for example:
- keeping your shopping cart and session;
- keeping you logged in to your account;
- remembering your cookie/notice preferences;
- (if you comment) remembering your name and email for the comment form.
These cookies are essential for the Site to work and do not require consent. I do not use Google Analytics or any other third-party tracking, profiling, or advertising cookies. Because only strictly necessary cookies are used, no cookie-consent pop-up is legally required.
6. Who has access to your data (recipients)
Your data may be shared only with the following, strictly to provide the service:
- PayPal — payment processing.
- La Poste / Colissimo — delivery.
- My web host / server provider — OVH, which stores the Site and its database – OVH SAS, 2 rue Kellermann, 59100 Roubaix (France).
- Public authorities — only where required by law (e.g. tax, customs, court order).
I do not transfer your data to any other third party for commercial purposes.
7. International transfers
The Site and database are hosted in the EU. Some providers (e.g. PayPal) may process data outside the European Economic Area; where they do, they rely on legal transfer mechanisms such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
8. How long I keep your data
- Account data: kept while your account is active; deleted on your request, or after 3 years of inactivity.
- Order and transaction data: kept for a reasonable period in case of a dispute or claim (e.g. relating to delivery or hidden defects), typically 5 years, then deleted.
- Contact messages: kept for as long as needed to handle the exchange, then deleted within 12 months.
- Server logs: kept for a short period for security.
9. Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
- access the data I hold about you;
- rectify inaccurate data;
- erase your data (“right to be forgotten”), subject to legal retention obligations;
- restrict or object to certain processing;
- data portability (receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format);
- withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.
To exercise any of these rights, contact me via https://yoolk.ninja/contact/. I will respond within one month.
If you believe your rights are not respected, you may lodge a complaint with the French data protection authority, the CNIL (https://www.cnil.fr).
10. Security
I take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data, including HTTPS encryption, access controls, and keeping WordPress, WooCommerce, and plugins up to date. No system is perfectly secure, but I work to keep your data safe.
11. Children
The Site and store are not directed at children under 15. I do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact me so I can delete it.
12. Changes to this policy
I may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the latest version. Material changes will be made visible on the Site.

This website may contain fan art inspired by existing characters from films, TV shows, or games. I don't own any rights to those characters — any copyright owner wishing to have a fan art removed can contact me here. This is a personal portfolio and store. It uses only the essential cookies needed for the site, cart, and account to work — no analytics, no tracking, no advertising.
