What we collect
When you create an account, set an alert, or join a waitlist, we store your email address. When you save pieces to a private collection, we store those entries under your account.
When you browse Besot, our analytics records the pages you visit, the device and browser you use, and the referring site that brought you here. This data is aggregated and used to improve the site. It is not sold.
To be credited for purchases we refer, Besot works with affiliate tracking networks, currently Impact. These networks place cookies through our site so that a purchase you make after clicking a listing can be attributed back to Besot. They record that a referral happened and basic technical details, not who you are. We do not receive your name, payment information, or the specifics of what you bought. The resale platform you click through to may also set its own cookies at that point, under its own privacy policy. As we connect more platforms, the networks that set these cookies may change, and this policy will be updated.
How we use it
Your email is used to send the alerts and digests you opt into, and to reach you about your account. We do not sell your email address. We do not rent, trade, or share it with advertisers.
Aggregated usage data helps us decide which collaborations to prioritize, which features to build, and which editorial directions to take. No individual profile is surfaced to our team or to any partner.
Cookies
Functional cookies keep you logged in and remember your preferences.
Our analytics is privacy-first and does not set cookies to track you. It records aggregated, anonymized traffic patterns only.
Affiliate tracking cookies are set through our site by the networks we use to earn commission, currently Impact. They load when you visit Besot and let a later purchase be credited to us. They identify a referral, not you personally.
The resale platform you click through to may also set its own affiliate cookies, not Besot. These typically persist for 30 days and allow Besot to be credited for purchases you make during that window.
You can disable cookies in your browser. Doing so will not prevent you from browsing or reading Besot.
Data retention
Account data is kept for as long as your account is active. You can delete your account at any time by emailing [email protected], and we will erase all personal data within 30 days except where retention is required by law.
Aggregated analytics data, with no personal identifiers, may be retained indefinitely for historical comparison.
Your rights
You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Email [email protected]. We respond within 30 days.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or California, you have additional rights under GDPR, UK GDPR, and CCPA respectively. Those rights are honored regardless of where you live.
