2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for several essential business purposes:

  • To calculate and transfer creator royalties or payout commissions.
  • To send you transactional notifications, platform notices, security alerts, and customer service updates.
  • To distribute newsletters and marketing updates (which you can opt-out of at any time).
  • To verify account validity and protect the Platform against fraudulent behavior or intellectual property violations.

3. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal details to third parties. We share your information only in the following controlled contexts:

  • Fulfillment & Sourcing Networks: Order details, product preferences, and shipping addresses are shared with print-on-demand suppliers and shipping couriers to produce and deliver custom merchandise.
  • Payment Processing Partners: Email address, transaction costs, and payout details are shared with verified payment processors (e.g., Stripe, bank transfer gateways) to manage deposits.
  • Agencies & Team Members: If your account is registered as Agency Managed, your details and earnings reports are accessible by your authorized talent agency.
  • Legal Obligations: We may share data when compelled to do so by applicable laws, subpoenas, court commands, or to safeguard intellectual property copyrights.

4. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Loka uses cookies, web beacons, and unique identifiers to enhance storefront operations:

  • Essential Cookies: Used to maintain shopping carts, hold session details, and secure user logins.
  • Analytical Cookies: Help us measure storefront performance, tracking page traffic via services like Google Analytics.
  • Preference Cookies: Remember sizing choices, region settings, and display preferences.

You can disable or customize cookies in your browser settings; however, disabling essential cookies may impact store checkout flows.

5. Data Security & Storage

We implement rigorous administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect your personal details:

  • All platform traffic is encrypted using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and HTTPS protocols.
  • Data databases are stored on secure cloud services with restricted operational access.
  • Payment card details are processed directly by PCI-compliant gateways and are never saved on Loka servers.

While we take extensive precautions, no storage or network transfer is 100% secure. You are advised to safeguard your storefront credentials and notify us if you notice suspicious behaviors.

6. International Data Transfers

Loka is a global platform with operational facilities located in Canada (Winnipeg, Toronto), the USA (Los Angeles), and India.

By accessing the Platform, you acknowledge that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in regions outside your country of residence, where local privacy policies might differ from regional policies in your home country. We utilize legal transfer guidelines (including standard contract clauses) to verify that your data remains securely protected.

Depending on your location (such as Canada, the European Union under GDPR, or California under CCPA), you may hold specific privacy privileges:

  • Right of Access: Review the personal data Loka holds about you.
  • Right to Correction: Update or correct inaccurate registration details.
  • Right to Deletion: Request that we delete your account and personal details (subject to active transaction records).
  • Right to Opt-Out: Cancel email marketing subscriptions or object to automated profiling.

To exercise any of these privileges, please send a message to our legal operations team at [email protected].
