Privacy Policy

This policy applies to jdsherocomplex.com and to information sent to Johnny Destructo's Hero Complex through the site’s email-based inquiry tools. Purchases completed through Etsy, and interactions on Facebook, Instagram, Google Maps, Square, or other third-party services, are governed by those services’ own privacy policies.

When you contact the shop, you may choose to share:

• Your name
• Your email address
• Your telephone number
• Comic, subscription, product, event, or commission interests
• Commission ideas, budget range, deadlines, and project notes
• Anything else you voluntarily include in an email

The website and its hosting and security providers may process ordinary technical information such as IP address, browser and device type, pages visited, referring page, date and time of access, and error or security logs. This is used to deliver, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the site.

The site does not currently use behavioral advertising, and visitor data is not sold. Hosting or essential site services may use limited technical storage where it is necessary for the site to work.

• To respond to questions and inquiries
• To discuss comic subscriptions, product availability, events, commissions, and store services
• To operate, secure, maintain, and improve the website
• To keep business records and comply with legal obligations
• To send marketing only when someone separately opts in. Marketing messages can be unsubscribed from at any time.

Information may be shared only as reasonably needed with hosting, email, technical, professional, or legal service providers; when required by law; to protect rights or safety; or in connection with a business transfer. Johnny Destructo's Hero Complex does not sell or rent personal information.

Clicking an Etsy link or another external link takes you to a third-party service, and that service’s terms and privacy practices apply to what happens there. This website does not receive payment card details from Etsy transactions.

The home page and the Visit page embed an interactive Google Maps frame showing the shop’s location. When that map loads, or when you pan, zoom, or otherwise interact with it, Google may receive ordinary technical information such as your IP address, browser and device details, and information about how you used the map. Google’s own terms and privacy practices apply to that information. If you prefer not to load the map, you can use the plain address and the text directions link instead.

The Podcast page offers a click to load YouTube player using YouTube’s privacy enhanced mode. Nothing is loaded from YouTube when you open the page. Only after you choose to load or play the videos may YouTube and Google receive technical and interaction information, such as your IP address, browser details, and how you use the player. Google’s and YouTube’s own privacy policies and terms apply to that information.

Information is kept only as long as reasonably needed for the inquiry, business records, dispute resolution, legal compliance, and security. Reasonable safeguards are used, but no email or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.

You can contact the shop to ask about information you provided, request correction or deletion where appropriate, or opt out of marketing. Some information may be retained when reasonably required by law, accounting, fraud prevention, or legitimate business records.

This is a general-audience website and is not directed to children under 13. Children under 13 should not submit personal information through the website. A parent or guardian is welcome to contact the shop on a child’s behalf.

This policy may be updated as the website or the shop’s practices change. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
