Who runs this site

werewolves.art is run by a private individual as a hobby. It’s non-commercial: no ads, no payments, no income. Write to contact@werewolves.art about anything on this page.

What we keep about artists, and where it comes from

Only things artists have made public themselves:

• From e621: the artist name, how their public posts are tagged (species, themes and so on), copies of some of their pictures, and the links to their other accounts listed there.
• From Bluesky: their public profile, bio and posts, follower count, what their posts say about commissions (open, closed, with a short quote and a link), and copies of the price sheets they post.
• From X: copies of pictures from some of their public posts.

From this we make their page: their name and links, commission status, prices and a copy of their price sheet, smaller copies of some of their pictures (and blurred copies for people who only want SFW), what they draw, and which artists draw alike. It’s updated automatically every day.

Why

To help people find artists to commission, using what the artists themselves have published. That’s our legitimate interest, and we think it’s what an artist who posts their commissions publicly would expect. Any artist can take their page down at any moment (see below).

If you claim your page

You log in with Bluesky. Bluesky tells us your account ID; we check it’s the account on your page. We keep:

• your page, your Bluesky account ID and the date you logged in;
• what you set: your commission status, your prices, and whether you hid your art or took your page down;
• a cookie that keeps you logged in for 30 days (and one for the 15 minutes the login takes).

We use this only to let you run your page. Login attempts are counted per day with a scrambled (hashed) version of your IP address, to stop abuse. When you hide your art or take your page down, the person who runs the site gets an email saying so, with your page and your Bluesky account ID.

If you report a picture or a page

We keep the reason you picked, your note if you wrote one, what you reported, the date, and a scrambled (hashed) version of your IP address; never the address itself. We use it to review the report and to limit spam. Cloudflare Turnstile checks you’re not a bot when you send it. Each report (the reason, what you reported and your note, not your IP) is also sent by email to the person who runs the site.

If you just visit

• No accounts, no tracking cookies, no ads.
• Your browser keeps your NSFW / SFW-only choice and the artists you ♡. They stay on your device and never reach us; clear your browser’s site data to remove them.
• We use the country Cloudflare reports for your connection only to decide which pictures can be shown there. We don’t store it.
• Visit statistics come from Cloudflare Web Analytics, which doesn’t use cookies.

Who hosts the data

The site, the pictures and the data above are hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. (USA), so they may be stored and processed outside your country. Cloudflare keeps short technical logs of requests for a few days. The working copies we use to build the site are kept on our own computer and in a private Amazon Web Services storage bucket. Emails to contact@werewolves.art and from the site (reports and notices) go to a mailbox hosted by Google.

We use automated services from other companies to read commission status and price sheets in public posts, and to filter out photos. They process the text and images only to give us an answer, and are set up not to keep them or use them for anything else.

How long we keep things

• An artist’s page: while they’re on the index.
• If an artist takes their whole page down: it disappears from the site at once. Within 30 days we delete what they set, the record of their logins, the reports about their page and our copies of their pictures. We keep only a minimal note that they asked to leave (their page, the date, and which of their pictures not to show), so we don’t add them again.
• Copies of pictures the site no longer shows: deleted within about a week, except pictures hidden after a report that are still waiting to be reviewed.
• What a claimed artist sets: until they change it.
• The record of an artist’s logins: 12 months after their last login.
• Reports: the hashed IP is removed after 30 days; the report itself is deleted 12 months after it’s been dealt with.
• The daily counts per hashed IP: deleted the next day.
• Emails and the working copies we build the site from: kept while the artist is on the index, and deleted if they ask.
• Cloudflare’s technical logs: a few days.
• The login cookie: 30 days, or until you log out.
• What your browser keeps: until you clear it.

Your rights and how to get off this site

• Take your page down yourself, at once: log in with Bluesky and choose to hide your art or take the whole page down. We then keep only a minimal note that you asked to leave (your page, the date, and which of your pictures not to show), so we don’t add you again.
• Ask for a copy of what we have about you, or to correct or delete it: write to contact@werewolves.art. We answer within one month.
• You can also complain to the data protection authority in your country.
