Licensing Statement
Aurora Lite — and all other Aurora themes and products distributed on WordPress.org or through this website — are released under the GNU General Public License v2.0 (or later). This applies to both the free and any premium versions of Aurora products.
All PHP files, template files, JavaScript, and CSS bundled with Aurora themes are
100% GPL-compatible. Third-party resources (such as icon fonts,
Google Fonts, or stock images) are licensed under their respective open licenses
(MIT, SIL OFL 1.1, CC0, etc.) and are fully compatible with the GPL. A full
copyright and license notice is included in each theme’s readme.txt
and the LICENSE file at the root of the theme directory.
You are free to use, modify, and redistribute Aurora themes in accordance with the GPL. There is no restriction on using Aurora for personal, commercial, or client projects. Redistribution of modified versions must also carry the GPL license intact.

Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters. This Privacy Policy explains what information Aurora (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects when you visit this website or use our themes, how we use it, and your rights in relation to that information. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.
1. Information We Collect
Information you provide directly
When you contact us, purchase a product, or sign up for updates, we may collect:
- Name and email address
- Billing and payment information (processed securely through a third-party payment provider — we never store raw card details)
- Messages, feedback, or support requests you send us
Information collected automatically
When you visit our website, standard server logs and analytics tools may record:
- IP address and approximate geographic location
- Browser type, operating system, and device information
- Pages visited, time on page, and referring URL
- Date and time of your visit
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to support requests and enquiries
- Process purchases and deliver license keys or download access
- Send transactional emails (receipts, license renewal notices)
- Send optional newsletters or product update announcements (only with your consent)
- Improve our website, themes, and documentation based on aggregate usage data
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes.
3. Cookies
Our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience. These include:
- Essential cookies — required for the website to function (e.g. shopping cart, login sessions)
- Analytics cookies — help us understand how visitors interact with the site (e.g. Google Analytics, Plausible). These are anonymised and aggregate-level only.
- Preference cookies — remember settings such as your preferred language or theme
You can control and disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings or our cookie consent banner. Disabling cookies may affect certain features of the site.
4. Third-Party Services
We rely on a small number of trusted third-party services to operate this website. Each has their own privacy policy governing their data practices:
- Payment processors (Stripe, Lemon Squeezy) — for secure payment handling
- Email delivery (Brevo) — for transactional and newsletter emails
- Web hosting / CDN — for serving site assets
- Analytics (e.g. Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook pixel) — for aggregate visitor statistics
We choose providers that are GDPR-compliant and contractually bound to protect your data.
5. Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected, or as required by law. Purchase records are kept for a minimum of 5 years for accounting and tax compliance. Support ticket data is typically deleted after 2 years of inactivity. You may request earlier deletion at any time (see Section 7).
6. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, or destruction. All data in transit is encrypted via TLS/HTTPS. However, no internet transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable privacy law (including the GDPR, CCPA, and similar regulations) to:
- Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Rectification — ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data
- Erasure — request deletion of your personal data (“right to be forgotten”)
- Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
- Objection / Restriction — object to or restrict certain types of processing
- Withdraw consent — unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time via the unsubscribe link in any email
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 9. We will respond within 30 days.
8. Children’s Privacy
This website is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
