Privacy Policy
At WeeBe, operated by YK May Corporation Trading, we are committed to respecting your privacy and protecting your personal information. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and share your information, and explains your rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
1. Information We Collect
- Account Information: If you create an account, we collect details like display name, email address, and other profile data you choose to provide.
- Comments: When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data in the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and browser user agent for spam detection purposes. An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to display your profile picture, visible publicly in the context of your comment.
- Media Uploads: If you upload images to our site, avoid including location data (EXIF GPS) as this data can be extracted by other users.
- Checkout Information: For purchases, we collect essential information, such as name, address, and payment details, to process orders securely.
- Cookies and Tracking: Cookies are used to enhance your experience, including retaining login information and preferences. Specific cookies are set for logged-in users, comment submission, and screen display settings. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings.
2. How We Use Your Information
- Order Processing: To process purchases and manage orders.

- Marketing Communication: With your consent, we may send promotional emails, which you may unsubscribe from at any time.
3. Data Sharing and Disclosure
