Privacy policy

Scope

This policy covers the website makisend.lixalistudio.tech and the MakiSend Cloud waitlist it links to. The controller is LIXALI STUDIO, LLC, a limited liability company organised under the laws of the State of Delaware, United States (file number 10751478, registered office 131 Continental Dr, Suite 305, Newark, DE 19713, United States).

To reach us about your data, use the Lixali Studio contact page.

It does not cover the MakiSend software you install yourself. An instance runs on its operator's Cloudflare account: we do not receive the emails, recipients, logs or credentials it handles, and its operator is responsible for that data. An instance contacts no server of ours. It checks for new releases by reading the public GitHub API, which the operator can turn off.

Information we collect

The site has no account, no sign-up, no contact form and no newsletter. It loads no third-party script, font or image.

When you load a page, the following is necessarily processed to deliver it and keep it secure: an online identifier (your IP address) and internet or other network activity (the URL requested, your browser's user agent, HTTP headers, the time of the request). The hosting infrastructure generates it; you do not type it in.

If you join the MakiSend Cloud waitlist, you do so on a form hosted by Tally, which opens on tally.so. We receive what you enter there, such as your email address and your answers about the channels you need.

If you contact us, we receive your contact details and your message.

We do not collect payment information, precise geolocation or biometric data, and we do not build a profile of you.

How we use it

Hosting data: to serve the pages, keep the site available and secure, block abuse and count traffic in aggregate.

Waitlist data: to tell you when MakiSend Cloud opens, and to understand which channels people need. We do not add you to another list and you can leave at any time.

Messages you send us: to answer you.

We do not use any of it for advertising, and we do not follow you across other websites.

How we disclose it

We do not sell your personal information and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We have not done so in the preceding twelve months.

Two service providers process it on our behalf. Cloudflare, Inc. (United States) hosts and protects this site, including its security logs. Tally BV (Belgium) hosts the waitlist form and its answers. Each may use the information only to provide its service to us.

We may disclose information when the law requires it, or to protect the security of the site or the rights of others.

Cookies and local storage

The site sets no cookie of its own: no analytics, advertising or profiling cookie. It stores nothing in your browser. The light or dark theme follows your system setting and is not saved.

Our hosting provider may set a strictly necessary security cookie, such as the short-lived __cf_bm bot-management token. You can delete it from your browser settings without losing access to the site. The Tally form, on its own domain, is governed by Tally's cookie policy.

The site does not track you, so it does not respond differently to a Do Not Track signal. We honour Global Privacy Control signals: there is no sale or sharing to opt out of.

Retention

Hosting logs are kept as long as the hosting provider's retention policy needs them for security, then deleted or aggregated. Waitlist entries are kept until MakiSend Cloud opens and you have been told, or until you ask us to delete them. Messages are kept as long as needed to handle your request.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to know whether we hold personal information about you and to get a copy; to correct it; to delete it; to restrict its use; to receive it in a portable format; to opt out of its sale or sharing and of targeted advertising; to limit the use of sensitive personal information; and not to be discriminated against for using these rights.

These rights come, for example, from the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, and from the privacy laws of other states, including the Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act.

How to exercise your rights

Contact us through the Lixali Studio contact page and say which right you want to use. We answer within the time the applicable law allows, generally 45 days, which the law lets us extend once.

We may need to confirm your identity first, and will ask only for what lets us match your request to the data we hold. You may act through an authorised agent, with written authorisation we can verify. Using your rights is free unless a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

Children

The site is meant for developers and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13, and we do not sell or share that of anyone under 16. If you think a child has given us personal information, tell us through the Lixali Studio contact page and we will delete it.

Security

The site is served only over HTTPS, with security headers set at the edge, including a content security policy that blocks third-party scripts and framing. Access to our mailbox, our Tally account and the repository is protected by multi-factor authentication.

Visitors outside the United States

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland: hosting data is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in running a secure website, and waitlist data on the basis of your consent, which you can withdraw at any time through the Lixali Studio contact page. Transfers to the United States are covered by standard contractual clauses. You have the rights listed above and may complain to your local data protection authority.

Nothing in this policy removes a right that the law of your country gives you.

Changes

We may update this policy when the site or the law changes. The version in force is the one on this page, dated at the top. Questions: use the Lixali Studio contact page.
