Who We Are

Our official online store for comfortable slippers and casual footwear is hydravanta.shop. All references to “we”, “us” and “our” within this privacy statement refer to the brand operator of hydravanta.shop.

Customer Product Reviews

When customers leave slipper reviews, fit feedback, or public comments on our slipper product pages, we collect all information you enter in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user‑agent string. This information helps us filter spam and block fake reviews, preserving genuine customer feedback for all slipper shoppers.

A hashed, non‑personally‑identifiable version of your email address may be shared with Gravatar to render your public avatar image. You may read Gravatar’s full privacy policy at automattic.com/privacy. Once your slipper review is approved, your profile picture will appear publicly alongside your feedback on the corresponding slipper product listing.

Uploaded Customer Media

If you upload unboxing photos, fit shots or styling pictures of your purchased slippers to our review gallery, we recommend removing embedded EXIF GPS location data from image files before uploading. Other visitors browsing our slipper product pages may download your uploaded photos and extract location metadata stored inside those files.

Cookie Usage Rules

Review Comment Cookies

When you submit a slipper product review, you may opt‑in to save your display name, email address and personal website via cookies. This avoids re‑entering form details for future slipper‑related feedback, and these cookies remain active for 12 months.

Temporary Verification Cookie

When you navigate to our account login page, a temporary session cookie will be set in your browser to verify that your device supports cookies. This cookie contains no personal shopper data and is automatically deleted once you close all browser windows.

Login & Preference Cookies

After you log into your shopper account to track slipper orders, manage returns or browse our slipper collections, several cookies will be stored to maintain your login session and your site‑display preferences:

  • Login authentication cookies expire after 48 hours
  • Currency, language and layout preference cookies remain valid for one full year
  • Checking the “Remember Me” box keeps your account logged‑in for 14 days; logging out will fully remove all login‑related cookies.

Draft Review Temporary Cookie

When you create or edit an unfinished slipper product review, a short‑lived cookie is saved to your browser. It only stores the unique ID of your draft review and contains no private customer data; it expires within 24 hours.

Embedded Third‑Party Content

Our slipper product pages, styling blog articles and promotional landing pages may include embedded third‑party content such as slipper‑styling video clips, lookbook imagery and external fashion articles. Embedded third‑party content behaves exactly as it would if you visited the external website directly.

These external platforms may independently collect your personal data, set their own cookies and tracking tools, and log your interactions with embedded videos or images. This tracking still occurs if you are signed into an account on that third‑party platform.

Data Sharing Scenarios

If you submit a password‑reset request for your hydravanta.shop shopper account, your device IP address will be included in the recovery email for fraud prevention and identity‑verification purposes. We will never sell or disclose your shopping‑related information to unaffiliated third parties without your explicit written consent.

Data Retention Period

All customer slipper reviews, feedback comments and associated metadata are stored permanently. This allows our anti‑spam system to automatically recognise and validate genuine feedback from returning shoppers, reducing the need for manual moderation for every submission.

For registered store members, we securely store personal profile data including shipping addresses, order history, slipper‑size preferences and contact details. You may view, edit or submit a request for full deletion of your personal data at any time; only your unique account username cannot be modified. Authorised store administrators may access and adjust your profile information to support order‑related enquiries and return‑order processing.

Your Personal Data Rights

If you hold a registered shopper account or have submitted slipper reviews and feedback on our website, you have the right to request a full copy of all personal data we have collected from your submissions. You may also submit an official request to erase all of your stored personal records.

This deletion right does not apply to data we are legally required to retain for tax‑record‑keeping, order archiving, fraud prevention and website‑security compliance.

Automated Comment Screening

All customer slipper reviews and feedback submitted to our product pages are automatically scanned and processed by anti‑spam systems. Malicious messages, fake reviews and spam content will be filtered out before content is displayed publicly.play.
