Effective Date: September 15, 2024

The Legendaley Collective, operating under the brand name Studio Daley ("we," "us," or "our"), is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you interact with our website, www.studiodaley.com. By using our services, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

  • Personal Information: Names, email addresses, phone numbers, and message content provided through our contact form. We do not collect sensitive personal data such as birthdays or payment information.

  • Non-Personal Information: Automatically collected by third-party platforms such as Squarespace, including IP addresses, browser types, device information, operating systems, and usage patterns. This data is not used to personally identify individuals but helps us improve our website and services.

Non-personal information is typically retained for up to 24 months for analytics and performance improvement purposes.

2. How We Collect Information

  • Directly from You: Through the contact form on our website, we collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, and the content of your message.

  • Automatically: Non-personal information is collected automatically through cookies and tracking technologies implemented by Squarespace. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings.

3. Purpose of Data Collection

We collect and process personal information for the following purposes:

  • To respond to inquiries and communicate with potential clients.

  • To manage and fulfill booking requests.

  • To improve our services and user experience based on non-personal usage data.

We collect personal information based on the following legal grounds:

  • Consent: When you voluntarily submit a contact form or subscribe to communications.

  • Legitimate Interest: When we process data to fulfill a booking request or respond to inquiries.

4. Data Sharing

We take your privacy seriously and do not sell, lease, or distribute your personal information to any third parties without your explicit consent, except in the following circumstances:

  • Service Providers: We may share personal information with trusted third-party service providers solely to facilitate services on our behalf. For example, Squarespace provides website hosting services and handles non-personal data collection through its built-in analytics features.

  • Email Communication: We use Gmail to directly email clients for communication purposes. Gmail operates independently, and its privacy practices are governed by Google’s privacy policy.

  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose personal information if required to do so by law or in response to valid legal processes such as subpoenas, court orders, or other legal obligations.

We have no control over the privacy practices of third-party providers such as Squarespace or Gmail, and users are encouraged to review their privacy policies:

5. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures, including SSL encryption and regular security audits, to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. However, as no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Retention of Information

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. Personal information related to bookings is generally retained for up to 2 years, after which it will be securely deleted or anonymized, unless otherwise required by law.
