Nineteen structured clauses • Effective October 18, 2026
Effective date and binding operating schedule for this statement

This privacy statement took effect on October 18, 2026, and governs all technical access, inquiry submissions, and consultation records gathered through the domain vellune.click. We update this text whenever studio data collection practices change or when relevant state and federal advertising requirements require procedural amendments.

All policies established herein apply to prospective clients inquiring about facial aesthetic appointments, skincare consultations, brow waxing sessions, and cosmetic masterclasses conducted at our Charlotte boutique.

Identity and physical address of the data controller

The operational controller responsible for decisions concerning your personal data is Vellune, trading at the web address vellune.click. Our single physical studio premises are located at:

Vellune

130 North Tryon Street, Charlotte, North Carolina 28202, Charlotte, North Carolina, United States

Product oversight, formulation vetting, and service compliance are managed by Irina Petrova, Product Manager, active with the business since 2021.

Concrete categories of data collected through this website

We do not operate an online shopping cart, client accounts, or credit card processing gateways. The scope of information collected through vellune.click is strictly confined to four discrete channels:

  • Inquiry Form Data: When you complete an intake request via nesi220.php, we collect your full name, telephone number, email address, physical street address or postal code, the specific category of service requested (such as Full Face, Brow Wax, Feature Focus, or Beauty Lesson), written notes, requested product formulation specifications, and your affirmative consent confirmation.
  • Automated Technical Headers: Our web server automatically writes your IP address, browser user-agent header string, referring URL, timestamp of initial page delivery, and timestamp of form transmission.
  • Studio Live Chat Transcripts: When opening our interactive consultation widget via morib98.php, the system stores your typed conversational text along with a locally generated persistent session token in your browser so you may resume dialogue across visits.
  • Advertising Identifiers & Consent Keys: We record the visitor choice parameter under the local browser key site_consent_v2. When landing through paid advertising campaigns, incoming URLs carry ad click identifiers including gclid for Google Ads, msclkid for Microsoft Advertising, and fbclid for Meta Ads.
Operational purposes for processing your submitted information

Each item of recorded data serves an explicit operational purpose inside our Charlotte studio:

  • Consultation Review & Scheduling: Your contact details and requested service categories allow Irina Petrova and our studio aestheticians to check appointment slots, review contraindications, and formulate pricing estimates.
  • Customer Correspondence: We use your phone or email to respond to specific questions regarding skin barrier prep, botanical waxing ingredients, or masterclass curriculum details.
  • Platform Security & Fraud Prevention: Automated network headers, submission timestamps, and hidden honeypot validation fields protect our inquiry infrastructure against spam, automated abuse, and distributed attacks.
  • Advertising Performance Measurement: Click parameters and privacy-safe conversion pings allow us to verify campaign reach and return on ad spend without compiling longitudinal user dossiers.
Active advertising networks and link click identifiers

Vellune actively directs paid commercial web traffic to this domain. We do not claim that ad platforms have reviewed or endorsed our studio. The marketing services sending live traffic to vellune.click include google ads, microsoft advertising, and Meta Ads.

When an individual clicks a sponsored studio placement, the destination URL receives a specific click parameter:

  • gclid (Google Click Identifier) supplied by google ads to monitor search and display campaign interactions.
  • msclkid (Microsoft Click Identifier) supplied by microsoft advertising to track Bing network search queries.
  • fbclid (Facebook Click Identifier) supplied by Meta Ads to measure sponsored Instagram and Facebook promotions.

These tags operate in strict alignment with our Consent Mode v2 implementation described below.

Third-party service processors receiving system transmissions

Vellune never sells, trades, or rents customer inquiry data to marketing brokers. We share data only with designated technical processors necessary to deliver our website and fulfill booking inquiries:

  • Google LLC / Google Ireland Ltd: Operates Google Ads measurement and infrastructure analytics under strictly governed standard contractual clauses.
  • Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd: Manages Microsoft Advertising conversion reporting; full details on their processing standards can be examined directly at privacy.microsoft.com.
  • Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd: Processes Meta Ads campaign signals when prospective clients interact with social studio placements.
  • Hosting & Server Infrastructure Provider: Houses our server infrastructure, processes nesi220.php scripts, and stores database entries inside hardened United States facilities with full encryption.
  • Transactional Mail Routing Service: Delivers intake inquiry notifications directly to office@vellune.click with transport-layer encryption.
Cross-border data transfers and legal export safeguards

Our server facilities and primary business operations reside in Charlotte, North Carolina, United States. If you visit vellune.click from outside the United States, your transmission originates in your home jurisdiction and terminates on American servers.

For visitors accessing our domain from the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, cross-border data movements are protected through Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) executed with our enterprise service vendors, ensuring equivalent data privacy protection regardless of geographical destination.

Exact data retention schedules for all records

We do not keep personal records indefinitely or under vague terms. We enforce exact calendar deletion limits across every category of studio data:

  • Inquiries and Email Records: Kept for exactly 36 months following your initial appointment request to enable recurring consultation tracking, after which records are purged.
  • Chat Transcripts: Stored on our application server for exactly 12 months to provide continuity during multi-stage beauty consultations.
  • Server Access Logs: Web server access logs, diagnostic IP logs, and system error traces are purged after 30 days.
  • Tracking Consent Selections: The browser storage record of your consent choice (site_consent_v2) expires after 12 months, prompting re-selection.
  • Data Subject Access Inquiries: Any formal DSAR submission is reviewed and resolved with an answer within 5 days.
Technical, physical, and organizational security measures

We employ multi-layered technical controls to prevent unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure of submitted information. All network traffic between your device and vellune.click is encrypted using modern Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3). Server endpoints enforce strict HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy and HSTS.

Internally, access to client inquiry forms and master consultation notes is restricted strictly to Irina Petrova and designated studio management. We maintain physical access controls at our Charlotte facility and enforce tokenized authentication across our administration backends.

Section 14 Recognition and honoring of Global Privacy Control browser signals

Our web application actively recognizes the global privacy control (GPC) specification transmitted via the Sec-GPC request header. If your browser broadcasts this signal, our front-end runtime automatically interprets it as a valid, affirmative directive to opt out of marketing cookies and cross-context behavioral advertising sharing.

When global privacy control is detected, Consent Mode v2 signals are locked in the denied state without requiring you to open the cookie banner or submit a manual opt-out inquiry.

Section 15 Age threshold and strict child privacy protections

Vellune is an adult cosmetic and wellness destination. Our facial waxing treatments, beauty masterclasses, and topical cosmetic formulations are engineered strictly for adults aged 18 and older. In compliance with advertising policies and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), this website is neither directed toward nor intended for minors under 18 years of age.

We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or maintain personal information from individuals under 18. If we discover that an inquiry form has been submitted by a minor, the information is immediately and permanently expunged from our storage systems.

Section 16 Regulatory oversight and formal dispute filing avenues

If you believe our studio has failed to honor your statutory privacy entitlements, you have the right to lodge a formal complaint with relevant regulatory authorities:

  • European Union / UK: You have the right to contact the Data Protection Authority in your member state of habitual residence, place of work, or where an alleged infringement occurred.
