Last updated: August 20, 2026

1. About this policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Huvy’s Gallery, operated by Robert Elisha, collects, uses, stores and shares personal information when you browse this website, contact the gallery, request information, arrange a visit or enquire about an artwork. By using the website or voluntarily providing information, you acknowledge the practices described below.

2. Information we collect

We may collect information that you choose to provide, including your name, telephone number, email address, company or organisation, country, the content of your message, artwork interests, visit requests and correspondence with us by email, telephone or WhatsApp.

We may also collect technical and usage information automatically, such as IP address, browser and device type, operating system, approximate location, referring page, visit time, pages viewed and interactions with the site. This information may be collected through cookies and similar technologies.

3. How we use information

We use personal information to respond to enquiries; arrange gallery visits and private viewings; provide information about artworks, acquisitions, commissions, exhibitions and events; maintain customer and enquiry records; operate, secure and improve the website; prevent misuse; comply with legal obligations; and, where permitted or consented to, send relevant news or marketing communications. You may opt out of marketing messages at any time.

4. Basis for processing

Depending on the circumstances, information may be processed because you asked us to take steps or provide a service, because you gave consent, because processing is required to comply with law, or because it is reasonably necessary for the gallery’s legitimate operational interests, provided those interests do not override applicable privacy rights.

5. Storage and retention

Information may be stored in the gallery’s internal systems and in systems provided by trusted service providers, including website hosting, email, customer relationship management and cloud services. We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, to maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes and meet legal requirements. When information is no longer required, it may be deleted or anonymised, subject to applicable law.

6. Sharing with third parties

We may share information with service providers that support the website and gallery operations, such as hosting, website maintenance, analytics, email, CRM, messaging, payment, delivery and professional advisory providers. Such access is limited to what is reasonably necessary for the relevant service.

Information may also be disclosed where required by law, court order or a competent authority; to protect rights, safety or property; in connection with a reorganisation or transfer of the gallery’s activity; or with your permission. We do not sell personal information.

7. Cookies and analytics

The website may use essential, preference, analytics and marketing cookies. Where enabled, services such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta tools may receive technical and usage information in accordance with their own terms and privacy policies.

You can control cookies through the site’s consent tool, where available, and through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect some website features.

8. Communications and WhatsApp

If you contact us through WhatsApp or another third-party platform, your use of that platform is also subject to the provider’s privacy terms. We may keep the conversation as part of our enquiry or customer records. Please avoid sending sensitive personal information unless it is necessary for your request.

9. Information security

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. However, no website, transmission method or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Your privacy rights

Subject to the Israeli Privacy Protection Law, 5741–1981, as amended, and any other applicable law, you may have the right to inspect personal information held about you and to request correction or deletion where the information is inaccurate, incomplete, unclear or out of date. Additional rights may apply in specific circumstances, including rights relating to direct marketing.

To submit a request, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity and may retain information where required or permitted by law.

11. Third-party links

The website may link to external websites and services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties, and we recommend reviewing their privacy notices before providing personal information.

12. Children

The website is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate authorisation. If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can review the matter.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect legal, technological or operational changes. The current version will be published on this page with its updated date. Material changes may also be highlighted on the website where appropriate.
