Privacy Policy

Who This Policy Is For

This policy applies to anyone who purchases a Your Home Chart reading.

I am Charlie Ropsy, trading as Home Alchemy, based in France. This is a small independent business. I am the only person handling your data, and I take that responsibility seriously.

What Information I Collect

When you purchase a Your Home Chart reading, you provide:

• First name and last name
• Email address
• Date of birth
• Time of birth
• Place of birth
• Gender at birth

Why I Collect It and What I Do With It

To generate your reading

Your date of birth, time of birth, place of birth, and gender at birth are entered into Astro.com, a publicly available chart calculation tool, to produce your astrological birth chart data. That chart data, along with your first name, is then passed to Claude AI (made by Anthropic) to generate your personalised written reading.

I want to be transparent about this: AI is involved in producing your reading. It works from your birth data and chart, with my guidance as the practitioner behind the process.

To deliver your reading

Your email address is used to send you the finished reading, which arrives within 48 hours of purchase.

For customer service

Your email address may be used to contact you about your order — for example, if I have a question about your details or if there is a delay.

The Legal Basis for Processing Your Data

The lawful basis for processing your personal information is consent. By completing your purchase and ticking the consent checkbox at checkout, you agree to your data being used in the way described in this policy.

You can withdraw consent at any time by contacting me at [email protected]. Withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing that has already taken place.

Third Parties Who Handle Your Data

Three third-party tools are involved in delivering your reading:

HighLevel handles the checkout and stores your order information. It acts as the payment and CRM platform through which your purchase is processed.

Astro.com is used to calculate your astrological birth chart from the birth data you provide. Your data is entered manually to generate chart information, which is not stored on my end beyond what is needed to complete your reading.

Anthropic (Claude AI) receives your chart data and first name to generate the written text of your reading. Anthropic's privacy policy governs how they handle data passed through their API. You can read it at anthropic.com/privacy.

How Long I Keep Your Data

I retain your personal information for 12 months after your purchase. This allows me to respond to any follow-up questions about your reading. After 12 months, your data is deleted.

If you request deletion before that point, I will delete your data within 30 days.

Your Rights

Under GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data I hold about you
• Correct any inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your data
• Object to processing, or request that it be restricted
• Withdraw consent at any time

To exercise any of these rights, email me at [email protected]. I will respond within 30 days.

If you are based in the EU and believe your data has been handled unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority. In France, that is the CNIL (cnil.fr).

Changes to This Policy

If I make any significant changes to how I handle your data, I will update this page and revise the date at the top. I will not change the basis on which I process your data without asking for your consent again.
