Privacy, Editorial & Legal Policies

Privacy, Editorial & Legal Policies

Effective Date: August 31, 2026
Last Updated: August 31, 2026

Mandale Luxury Magazine is a Miami-based digital editorial publication covering luxury lifestyle, travel, hospitality, dining, design, real estate, business, wellness, culture, people, events and related subjects.

This Privacy, Editorial & Legal Policies page explains our editorial standards, advertising and disclosure practices, approach to intellectual property and third-party content, website-use principles, and how information may be collected and handled when you use Mandale Luxury Magazine.

By accessing or using this website, you acknowledge the practices described below.

1. Editorial Independence

Mandale Luxury Magazine is an independent editorial publication.

Mandale Luxury Magazine and Mandale Luxury Marketing, a brand services and marketing agency, share common ownership. We disclose this relationship in the interest of transparency.

Editorial coverage, rankings, reviews, recommendations and editorial opinions are determined by Mandale Luxury Magazine independently from paid advertising and agency services.

A commercial relationship with Mandale Luxury Marketing does not, by itself, entitle a brand, property, restaurant, company or individual to favorable editorial coverage, inclusion, ranking or review.

Where an editorial story materially intersects with an agency, advertising, sponsorship or other commercial relationship and disclosure is appropriate or legally required, Mandale will disclose that relationship in connection with the relevant content.

Editorial judgments are based on the information available to our editors at the time of publication and may reflect the views, evaluations and opinions of Mandale Luxury Magazine and its contributors.

2. Advertising, Sponsored Content and Material Connections

Mandale Luxury Magazine may publish advertising, sponsored content, branded content, partnerships or other commercial features.

When content is paid for, sponsored, produced in partnership with a third party, or involves another material connection that could reasonably affect how a reader evaluates the content, Mandale seeks to identify that relationship clearly and in a manner appropriate to the content and applicable law.

Depending on the circumstances, disclosures may include language such as Sponsored, Sponsored Content, Paid Partnership, Presented By, In Partnership With, Hosted By, or another description that accurately explains the relationship.

Complimentary experiences, hosted stays, gifts, products, event access or other benefits may also be disclosed when the relationship is material to the content or when disclosure is otherwise appropriate or legally required.

Commercial participation does not give an advertiser ownership of Mandale’s independent editorial voice unless content is expressly identified as advertiser-provided, sponsored or branded content.

3. Reviews, Rankings, Recommendations and Editorial Opinions

Reviews, rankings, lists, ratings, recommendations and similar editorial features reflect editorial judgment based on the methodology, information and circumstances applicable at the time of publication.

They should not be understood as guarantees of quality, availability, safety, performance, pricing or future experience.

Restaurants, hotels, businesses, products, services, destinations and other subjects may change after publication.

Where Mandale publishes a formal methodology for a ranking, index or evaluation, that methodology should be read together with the corresponding content.

4. No Implied Affiliation, Sponsorship or Endorsement

Mandale Luxury Magazine regularly reports on and refers to hotels, restaurants, designers, developers, businesses, events, products, public figures, destinations and other third parties.

Unless expressly stated, the inclusion, discussion, depiction or reference to a person, company, property, brand, product, service or organization does not mean that Mandale Luxury Magazine is affiliated with, sponsored by, endorsed by, approved by or officially connected with that person or entity.

Likewise, the appearance of a third-party name, trademark, logo, trade dress, property, product or other identifying material within editorial content does not by itself indicate a commercial relationship with Mandale.

5. Trademarks and Third-Party Intellectual Property

All third-party trademarks, service marks, logos, trade names, product names and other intellectual property appearing on this website remain the property of their respective owners.

References to third-party intellectual property are made for editorial, descriptive, informational, identification or other lawful purposes.

Mandale Luxury Magazine does not claim ownership of third-party trademarks or other intellectual property merely because they appear in our editorial content.

6. Photography, Video and Visual Content

Mandale Luxury Magazine publishes photography, video, illustrations and other visual material from a variety of sources.

These sources may include content created or commissioned by Mandale, material supplied by photographers or contributors, licensed photography, stock or free-license providers, authorized press materials, public-domain material and other material for which Mandale has a reasonable basis for editorial use.

Mandale seeks to use third-party visual content only where it has a reasonable basis to believe that the use is authorized or otherwise lawful.

Where a license, permission or press-use arrangement requires attribution, Mandale seeks to provide the required credit.

A photographic credit such as Courtesy of, Photo by, or a similar attribution identifies the stated source or creator.

Attribution alone should not be interpreted as a representation that the source sponsors, endorses or is affiliated with Mandale Luxury Magazine.

Some images may be illustrative, stock or representative imagery rather than documentary photography of the exact property, event, product or circumstance discussed.

Where the distinction would otherwise create a materially misleading impression, Mandale may identify imagery as illustrative or provide additional context.

If you are a copyright owner, photographer, agency, brand or authorized representative and believe visual material has been used in error or outside the scope of an applicable authorization, please contact us so that the matter can be reviewed promptly.

7. Artificial Intelligence and Digital Editorial Tools

Mandale Luxury Magazine may use artificial intelligence and other digital tools as part of its editorial and production workflow.

Uses may include research assistance, editing, image enhancement, design, organization, translation, ideation, data processing or creation of illustrative visual material.

The use of an automated tool does not eliminate Mandale’s responsibility for the content it publishes.

Materially AI-generated or digitally created imagery may be identified as an editorial illustration or AI-generated image where such disclosure is appropriate to avoid creating a misleading impression that the image is documentary photography of an actual person, property, event or occurrence.

Mandale does not intend AI-generated imagery to falsely represent that a real person, brand or organization participated in, approved or endorsed content when that did not occur.

8. Accuracy, Updates and Corrections

Mandale Luxury Magazine strives for accuracy and responsible editorial standards.

Information concerning prices, schedules, menus, availability, businesses, ownership, executives, events, laws, regulations, financial markets, real estate, medical or wellness subjects, travel requirements and other facts may change after publication.

Publication dates and, when appropriate, update dates may be displayed on articles.

If Mandale becomes aware of a material factual error, we may correct, clarify or update the content and may provide a correction or editor’s note when appropriate.

Mandale generally favors correction and clarification over removal of legitimate editorial material.

However, content may be removed, restricted, modified or unpublished when Mandale determines that legal, privacy, safety, intellectual-property, accuracy or other circumstances warrant doing so.

Corrections or editorial concerns may be sent to: info@mandaleluxurymagazine.com

9. Informational Content and No Professional Advice

Content published by Mandale Luxury Magazine is provided for editorial, journalistic, informational and general educational purposes.

Nothing on this website is intended to constitute individualized legal, medical, health, tax, investment, financial, accounting, insurance, real estate or other regulated professional advice.

Reading an article, contacting Mandale or using this website does not create an attorney-client, physician-patient, financial-adviser, broker, fiduciary or other professional relationship.

Readers should consult appropriately qualified and licensed professionals before making decisions that depend on legal, medical, financial, investment, tax, real estate or other professional considerations.

Mandale does not guarantee that information concerning these subjects is complete, current or appropriate for any particular reader’s circumstances.

10. Third-Party Websites and Services

The website may contain links to third-party websites, reservation platforms, social networks, retailers, hotels, restaurants, businesses, event organizers or other external services.

Mandale does not control those third-party websites and is not responsible for their availability, privacy practices, security, content, pricing, representations or terms.

A link does not, by itself, constitute an endorsement, partnership or affiliation.

Users should review the terms and privacy practices of third-party services before providing information or completing transactions with them.

11. Copyright in Mandale Content

Except for third-party material and other content identified as belonging to another owner, original articles, editorial copy, graphics, layouts, photographs, videos and other original materials created by or for Mandale Luxury Magazine are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

All rights are reserved except where expressly stated otherwise.

No person may reproduce, republish, distribute, commercially exploit, systematically extract for republication, modify or create unauthorized derivative commercial works from Mandale-owned content except with written permission or as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Limited quotation, linking, indexing and other uses permitted by applicable law are not prohibited by this policy.

12. Copyright Concerns and Takedown Requests

Mandale Luxury Magazine respects intellectual-property rights and will review good-faith copyright complaints.

A copyright owner or authorized representative who believes that material appearing on the website infringes copyright should send a notice containing sufficient information for Mandale to identify and investigate the material, including:

  • identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
  • identification and URL or other location of the material at issue;
  • the complainant’s name and contact information;
  • an explanation of the basis of the claimed rights and why the use is believed to be unauthorized;
  • a statement that the information provided is accurate and that the complainant is the copyright owner or is authorized to act for the owner; and
  • an electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner or authorized representative.

Copyright concerns may be sent to: info@mandaleluxurymagazine.com

Mandale may temporarily remove or replace material while investigating a credible rights claim without admitting liability or wrongdoing.

Nothing in this section represents that Mandale has obtained or qualifies for any particular statutory safe harbor unless all independently applicable legal requirements have been satisfied.

13. Reader Comments, Communications and Submissions

If the website permits comments, submissions, story pitches, photographs, messages or other user-provided material, users should submit only material they are legally entitled to provide.

Submitting material to Mandale does not automatically transfer ownership of the submitter’s copyright unless the parties separately agree otherwise in writing.

Users grant Mandale the limited rights reasonably necessary to receive, review and respond to submitted material and, where publication has been expressly authorized, to publish it in the agreed manner.

Mandale may moderate, reject or remove comments or submissions that are unlawful, abusive, infringing, deceptive, defamatory, threatening, spam, promotional or otherwise inappropriate for the publication.

14. Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with the website, Mandale may collect information that you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, contact information, newsletter subscription, message, story pitch, correction request or other communication.

The website and its technology providers may also automatically receive technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location derived from IP address and interaction data.

Cookies and similar technologies may also be used as described below.

Mandale does not ask visitors to provide sensitive personal information through ordinary website forms unless it is reasonably necessary for a specific purpose.

15. How We Use Information

Information may be used to:

  • operate, maintain and secure the website;
  • provide requested content or communications;
  • administer newsletter subscriptions;
  • respond to inquiries;
  • review pitches and corrections;
  • understand website usage;
  • improve content and user experience;
  • detect fraud, abuse or security threats;
  • maintain appropriate business and editorial records;
  • comply with legal obligations;
  • protect Mandale’s rights; and
  • perform other purposes disclosed at the time information is collected.

Where applicable law requires consent for a particular form of processing, Mandale will seek that consent.

16. Newsletter and Email Communications

Visitors may voluntarily subscribe to newsletters or other communications from Mandale Luxury Magazine.

Subscribers may unsubscribe from marketing communications using the unsubscribe mechanism included in applicable emails or by contacting Mandale.

An unsubscribe request from marketing communications does not necessarily prevent Mandale from sending non-promotional communications reasonably necessary to respond to an inquiry, administer a transaction or address a legal or security matter.

Mandale does not authorize the sale or transfer of subscriber email addresses to third parties for the purpose of allowing those third parties to independently send unrelated marketing emails.

17. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The website may use cookies and similar technologies for functions such as website operation, security, preferences, analytics, performance measurement and embedded third-party content.

Some cookies may be placed by third parties whose services appear on or support the website.

Users can manage many cookies through browser or device settings.

Disabling certain technologies may affect website functionality.

Where applicable law requires consent or provides a right to opt out of particular non-essential tracking or advertising technologies, Mandale will provide the required mechanism.

18. Embedded Content and Social Media

Articles and pages may include content embedded from third-party websites or services, including video, social media, maps or other interactive material.

Embedded third-party content may behave as though the visitor accessed the third-party website directly.

Those services may collect technical information, use cookies or similar technologies, and process interactions according to their own privacy policies.

Mandale does not control third-party tracking practices.

19. How Information May Be Shared

Mandale may disclose information to service providers that assist with website hosting, security, analytics, email delivery, newsletter management, spam prevention, technology, professional services and other operational functions.

Information may also be disclosed where reasonably necessary to:

  • comply with law, legal process or governmental requests;
  • investigate fraud or security incidents;
  • enforce rights;
  • protect users or others; or
  • facilitate a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring or transfer of business assets.

Mandale Luxury Magazine and affiliated businesses may share information when reasonably necessary to operate their respective services or respond to a request directed to an affiliated service.

Such sharing does not alter the editorial-independence principles described above.

Mandale does not operate as a data broker and does not sell subscriber contact lists as a mailing-list business.

Certain analytics, advertising or technology arrangements can be legally characterized as a sale, sharing or similar disclosure under some privacy laws even when no money is exchanged.

Where such laws apply to Mandale, applicable rights and opt-out mechanisms will be provided as required.

20. Data Retention

Mandale retains personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to maintain appropriate business and editorial records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, protect rights and maintain security.

Retention periods may differ depending on the type of information and the reason it is maintained.

Information may be deleted, anonymized or retained for a longer period where permitted or required by law.

21. Data Security

Mandale uses reasonable administrative, technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information appropriate to the nature of the information maintained.

No website, internet transmission, database or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users should use appropriate caution when transmitting information electronically.

22. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

Depending on where you reside and which privacy laws apply to Mandale, you may have rights concerning your personal information.

These rights can include rights to request access, correction, deletion or a copy of certain information, or to object to or opt out of certain types of processing.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time.

To submit a privacy request, contact: info@mandaleluxurymagazine.com

Mandale may take reasonable steps to verify the identity and authority of a person making a privacy request before processing it.

Nothing in this policy is intended to limit any privacy right that cannot lawfully be waived.

23. Browser Do Not Track and Privacy Signals

Some browsers offer a Do Not Track setting.

Because there is not a single universally applicable standard governing traditional browser Do Not Track signals, the website may not respond to all such signals.

Where Mandale is subject to a law that requires recognition of a legally valid universal opt-out or privacy-preference signal, Mandale will process such signals as required by applicable law.

Third-party services used by the website may have their own policies concerning these signals.

24. Children’s Privacy

Mandale Luxury Magazine is a general-audience luxury and lifestyle publication and is not directed to children under the age of 13.

Mandale does not knowingly seek to collect personal information online from children under 13 without legally required authorization.

If Mandale learns that personal information from a child has been collected in circumstances requiring deletion or parental authorization, appropriate steps will be taken.

A parent or guardian with a concern may contact: info@mandaleluxurymagazine.com

25. Visitors Outside Florida and the United States

Mandale Luxury Magazine is based in Miami, Florida, United States, and the website is accessible internationally.

Privacy and consumer-protection rights may differ depending on a user’s jurisdiction.

Where a law applicable to Mandale provides rights or obligations beyond those described in this policy, Mandale intends to comply with those applicable requirements.

Nothing in this section prohibits lawful quotation, commentary, criticism, news reporting, search-engine indexing or other activity protected or permitted by applicable law.

27. No Warranty

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the website and its editorial content are provided on an as available basis.

Mandale does not warrant that every item of information will remain current, complete, error-free or continuously available.

Nothing in this section limits obligations or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

28. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Mandale Luxury Magazine and its owners, affiliates, contributors and service providers will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses arising solely from reliance on general editorial information or from the use or inability to use the website.

This provision does not exclude liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

29. Governing Principles
