Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how MEDIUM.am (“we”, “our”, or “us”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use the MEDIUM.am platform (the “Service”).

MEDIUM.am is a digital space where artists and art lovers meet. This policy describes our commitment to your privacy as you interact with our community and services.

Account & Authentication Data

To access specific features and manage your profile, users must create an account or authenticate on the platform. Users may authenticate using email-based sign-up or Google Sign-In.

Regardless of whether a user signs in using email and password, Google Sign-In, or Facebook Login, we collect the same basic account information required to create and manage the user account:

• First name
• Last name
• Email address
• Profile avatar (if provided)
• Phone number (if provided)
• Bio (if provided)
• Birthday (if provided)

No additional user data is accessed beyond the information listed above. We do not access your Google or Facebook contacts, calendars, friends lists, files, or any other third-party services. Signing in via Google, Facebook, or email/password provides the same limited information required for your account.

This information is used solely for account identification, authentication, customer support, and service access control.

Authentication is handled using secure, HTTP-only cookies for session management. We do not use cookies for advertising or tracking.

Connecting Artists & Art Lovers

MEDIUM.am acts as a connector between creators and enthusiasts. We facilitate these connections by displaying the professional information provided by artists to the community.

Payments: At this time, MEDIUM.am does not process payments or act as a payment intermediary. Any transactions or agreements made between users are handled externally and are not subject to this Privacy Policy.

Cookies & Local Storage

The MEDIUM.am platform uses cookies strictly for authentication and session management. Minimal local storage may be used to save non-sensitive user preferences such as interface settings or language selection.

We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics cookies.

Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data. Data may be disclosed only if required by law or to comply with valid legal requests. In such cases, disclosure is limited to the minimum information legally required.

Your Rights

• You may request access to your account information at any time.
• You may request correction or deletion of your account and personal data.
• You can log out at any time to clear authentication cookies.
• You may contact us with any privacy-related questions.
