This page sets out the legal framework governing your use of Alinea Edit (alineaedit.com). We have written it to be clear and honest — because transparency is, for us, not a legal obligation but a value. Please read it with that spirit in mind.

1. Website Owner

Alinea Edit is an independent editorial platform operated by Rosa Poyatos Jiménez, with registered address at Madrid, 28055, Madrid, Spain.

For any enquiries regarding this notice, you may contact us at: alinea.edit@gmail.com

In compliance with Spanish Law 34/2002 on Information Society Services (LSSI-CE), this information is made available to all visitors of this website.

2. Copyright & Intellectual Property

All editorial content published on Alinea Edit — including articles, essays, curation texts, visual compositions, brand descriptions, and the overall aesthetic and voice of the platform — is the original creative work of Alinea Edit and is protected under applicable intellectual property law.

You are welcome to share our content for personal, non-commercial purposes, provided that Alinea Edit is clearly credited and a link to the original source is included. Reproduction, adaptation, or commercial use of our content without prior written permission is not permitted.

The brands, product names, and trademarks referenced within our editorial content remain the property of their respective owners. Their inclusion does not imply any commercial endorsement beyond our independent editorial assessment.

3. Affiliate Links & Commercial Transparency

Some of the links featured on Alinea Edit are affiliate links. This means that if you choose to purchase a product through one of these links, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.

We want to be clear about something that matters to us: affiliate relationships never influence our editorial selections. Every brand and product featured in The Edit has been chosen independently, according to our four editorial criteria — purpose, craft, aesthetic coherence, and personal integrity.

We only feature what we would genuinely recommend. The commission, when it exists, is a consequence of that recommendation — never the reason for it.

Where affiliate links are present, they will be identified within the content or with a visible disclosure at the top of the relevant page or article.

4. Privacy & Data Protection

4.1 Who processes your data

Your personal data is processed by Alinea Edit, acting as data controller, in compliance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and Spanish Organic Law 3/2018 on Data Protection (LOPDGDD).

4.2 What data we collect

We collect only what is necessary to provide a good experience. This includes: your name and email address when you subscribe to our newsletter; technical data such as IP address, browser type, and browsing behaviour, collected automatically via analytics tools; and any information you voluntarily provide through contact forms.

4.3 Why we collect it

We use your data to send you The Edit newsletter and editorial updates (with your explicit consent); to respond to your enquiries; to understand how our platform is used and improve it; and to comply with legal obligations.

4.4 How long we keep it

We retain your data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes described above. Newsletter subscribers' data is kept for as long as the subscription is active. You may withdraw your consent and request deletion at any time.

4.5 Your rights

Under GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or transfer your personal data. You may also object to its processing or withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at hello@alineaedit.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Authority (AEPD) at aepd.es.
