What we collect
When you use "What defines your standard?"
- The options you choose, with a random identifier that exists only for that page view. It is not stored on your device, is not linked to anything else about you, and cannot be used to identify you.
When you visit
- Our hosting provider processes technical request data (such as IP address and browser type) to deliver the site and keep it secure, as any web server must.
- To limit abuse, we keep a short-lived, scrambled value derived from your IP address. It cannot be turned back into the address and is deleted within 24 hours.
- Nothing is stored on your device: no cookies, local storage or session storage. See the Cookie Policy.
When you write to us
- If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to include, and use them only to reply.
What we do not collect
- No sign-up, account or mailing list. The website has no form that asks for your name or email address.
- No phone number, postal address, date of birth or payment details.
- No advertising or analytics trackers, and no third-party cookies.
- No profiling, and no decisions made about you by automated means.
How we use it
- To understand, in aggregate, what people value in clothing, from the anonymous discovery answers.
- To deliver the website and keep it secure.
- To answer you when you write to us.
We do not sell personal data. We do not share it for anyone else's marketing. We do not use it to train artificial intelligence systems.
Service providers
These companies process data on our behalf, under their own terms, to run this website:
- Netlify: hosts the website and runs the code that receives the discovery answers.
- Supabase: stores the anonymous discovery answers in a database.
These providers may process data on servers outside India. If we add or change a provider, we will update this list first. We may also disclose information where the law requires it.
How long we keep it
- Anonymous discovery answers: up to 24 months.
- Abuse-prevention values: up to 24 hours.
- Emails you send us: only as long as needed to deal with what you asked.
Your rights
The discovery answers are anonymous, so we cannot link them to you or single them out. For any personal data we do hold, such as an email you sent us, you can ask us at any time and free of charge to see it, correct it or delete it, and you can complain to us and to the data protection authority where you live.
Write to vorckclothing@gmail.com and tell us what you would like. We aim to respond within 30 days.
Grievance contact: [To be confirmed: name and contact of the person responsible for data requests]
This website is not directed at anyone under 18.
Security
The site is served over HTTPS. The discovery answers are stored in a database that cannot be read from the public internet; only server-side code holding private credentials can reach it. Submissions are validated on the server and rate limited. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot promise that it is.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle data, for example by adding a way to register interest, we will update this page and its version date before the change takes effect.
