Privacy Policy

Lumen Star Modeling ("we", "us" or "our") runs the website at https://www.lumenstarmodeling.com. This Privacy Policy (the "Policy") sets out how Lumen Star Modeling ("Lumen Star Modeling", "we", "us" or "our") collects, uses, discloses and protects personal information when you visit or use our website and its related pages (together, the "Services"). The Services are meant only for adults aged 18 and over.

If you disagree with any part of this Policy, please stop using the Services. To ask a question or to exercise your rights, write to us at contact@lumenstarmodeling.com.

MINIMAL DATA

We collect only what you choose to share in your application (such as name, email, contact handle, age and country) and standard technical logs.

NO SALE

We never sell your personal information or share it for profit or cross-context behavioral advertising.

SECURITY

We use industry-standard safeguards to protect your data. No system is perfectly secure, so please use the Services responsibly.

YOUR RIGHTS

Depending on where you live (EEA/UK, Canada, California, Virginia and others), you can ask to access, delete or correct your data, or limit how we process it.

1. Information We Collect

Information you give us of your own accord, when you ask us for information, complete a form or get in touch with us.

Personal data you might provide: names, email addresses and phone numbers. You must make sure all of it is accurate and keep it up to date.

Sensitive data: We do not collect it.

Technical Data We Collect Automatically

Our systems record routine operational data: IP address, browser type, operating system, language, referring pages, timestamps, pages viewed, device identifiers, an approximate location worked out from the IP address, and crash and error diagnostics. We use it for security, fraud prevention, performance analysis and the integrity of the Services.

Location data: An approximate location, worked out from your IP address. We do not ask for your precise GPS location. You can limit location signals through your device or browser settings.

2. How We Process Data

  • To provide and run the Services.
  • To answer your questions and support requests.
  • Security and fraud prevention: spotting misuse or malicious activity.
  • Analytics and improvement: making the Services more stable and easier to use, with data that is aggregated and does not identify you wherever possible.
  • To comply with the law and enforce our terms.
  • To protect vital interests where this is necessary.

3. Legal Bases (GDPR / UK GDPR / Similar)

Where these laws apply, we process data on the following legal bases:

  • Consent (Art.6(1)(a)) for information you submit voluntarily. You can withdraw it at any time by writing to contact@lumenstarmodeling.com.
  • Contract (Art.6(1)(b)) where we need to process data to answer inquiries made before a contract, or to provide features you have asked for.
  • Legal Obligation (Art.6(1)(c)) to meet requirements set by regulation or statute.
  • Legitimate Interests (Art.6(1)(f)) in keeping the platform secure, preventing abuse and improving the quality of the Services, always weighed against your rights.
  • Vital Interests (Art.6(1)(d)) in rare cases where it is needed to protect someone's life or safety.

Canada: Where PIPEDA requires it, we rely on express or implied consent. You may withdraw your consent, subject to legal or contractual limits.

4. Sharing & Disclosures

We do not sell personal information or "share" it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

  • Business Transfers: Data may be transferred as part of a merger, acquisition or restructuring.
  • Affiliates: Entities under our control, which are bound by this Policy.
  • Service Providers: Restricted access, only where strictly needed to run our operations (for example infrastructure or security). Each must meet confidentiality and data protection obligations.
  • Legal & Compliance: Where valid legal process requires it, or to defend legal rights.
  • Vital Safety: Where needed to prevent imminent harm.

5. Retention

We keep data only for as long as the purposes described here require, or for as long as the law requires. Once it is no longer needed, we delete it, aggregate it or anonymize it. Backups are rotated and cleared within standard retention periods.

6. Security

Our safeguards include access controls, network protection and internal organizational policies. Even so, no security method is perfect. Please take care with the information you send us, and contact us without delay if you suspect any unauthorized use.

7. Minors

The Services are for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. Please report any such collection to contact@lumenstarmodeling.com so the data can be removed promptly.

8. Your Rights

Depending on the laws that apply to you, you may have some or all of the following rights:

ACCESS

Find out whether we process your data and receive a copy of it.

RECTIFICATION

Ask us to correct data that is inaccurate or incomplete.

DELETION

Ask for your data to be erased where no overriding lawful basis applies.

RESTRICTION

Restrict certain processing when specific conditions are met.

PORTABILITY

Get a copy in a machine-readable format where this is technically feasible.

OBJECTION

Object to processing that relies on legitimate interests.

WITHDRAW CONSENT

Take back your consent. Processing carried out before you withdraw it remains lawful.

COMPLAINT

Using your rights: Send an email to contact@lumenstarmodeling.com. To keep your data secure and prevent fraud, we may verify your identity.

9. Do-Not-Track (DNT) & Global Privacy Control (GPC)

No universal standard for DNT has been finalized, and at present we do not respond to DNT signals. Should GPC or a similar legally binding mechanism become mandatory in the jurisdiction where we operate, we will adapt our approach and update this Policy.

10. California Privacy (CCPA / CPRA)

No selling or sharing: In the past 12 months we have not sold or shared personal information. The only data we process is a limited set of Identifiers (Category A) that you provide voluntarily, plus essential technical diagnostics (a limited part of Category F).

Your California rights: The rights to know, access, correct and delete, the right to non-discrimination, and the right to limit the use of sensitive data (which does not apply here, as we collect none). To make a request, write to contact@lumenstarmodeling.com.

Verification: We may ask for details that match what we already hold, such as an email address you used before. An authorized agent must provide written authorization.

11. Virginia CDPA

If you live in Virginia, you have the right to access, correct and delete your data, to obtain a copy of it, and to opt out of targeted advertising, the sale of your data and profiling. We do not run targeted advertising, sell data or profile people to make significant decisions.

Appeals: If we turn down a request, you may appeal by replying to our decision. We will give you a written explanation. If the matter is still not resolved, you may contact the Virginia Attorney General.

12. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. We may flag material changes on the site or tell you about them through the communication channels available to us.
