Yuko Orioka ("we," "our," or "us"), operating as The Inside Work (and Yuko Palm Reading × Subconscious), based in Itoshima, Japan, provides the service described here (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information. For privacy questions, contact palmreading.yuko@gmail.com.

1. Information We Collect

• Email Address — Used to send access codes and product information
• Chat Conversation Data — Used to provide the chat service
• Payment Information — Processed solely by Stripe; we do not store credit card details
• Usage Data — Anonymous usage statistics for service improvement

2. How We Use Your Information

• To provide and maintain the Service
• To send you access codes and important service announcements
• To respond to your inquiries and support requests

3. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We share data only with the following service providers, strictly for service delivery:

• Stripe (payment processing)
• Vercel (hosting)
• Upstash (data storage)
• Anthropic (AI processing)

4. International Data Transfer

We are based in Japan, and our service providers (including Anthropic and Vercel) may process data in the United States and other countries. By using the Service, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your own, which may have different data-protection laws. We rely on these providers' contractual safeguards for such transfers.

5. Marketing Emails & Consent

If you provide your email address, we may send you service messages and occasional updates about Yuko's work. We send marketing emails only with your consent, and you can unsubscribe at any time by replying to any email or contacting us. Withdrawing consent does not affect service-related messages (such as access information).

6. Data Retention

Chat conversation data is processed to provide the Service and is not used to build a profile of you. Email addresses are retained for service-related and (where consented) marketing communication until you ask us to delete them. You may request deletion of your data at any time.

Depending on where you live, you have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete your personal information
• Withdraw consent or object to processing
• Request a copy of your data (portability)
• Lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority

Our legal basis for processing is your consent and the performance of our service to you. We do not sell or share your personal information for advertising or any other purpose (for California residents under the CCPA, we do not "sell" or "share" personal information as those terms are defined). To exercise any right, email palmreading.yuko@gmail.com.

8. Cookies

We use minimal cookies necessary for service operation. We do not use third-party advertising cookies.
