Privacy Policy

Last updated:

Template notice: This policy is sample text for a demo website and is not legal advice. Replace it with a policy that reflects how your studio actually handles data, and have it reviewed for the laws that apply to you.

This Privacy Policy explains how Daylight Studio (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses and shares information when you visit this website or contact us about a project. By using the website, you agree to the practices described below.

1. Information we collect

Information you give us

  • Your name, email address and the details of your enquiry when you use the contact form.
  • Your email address when you sign up for our newsletter.
  • Anything else you choose to share with us by email or during a project, such as plans, photos of a site or a brief.

Information collected automatically

  • Basic technical information such as your browser type, device, pages visited and the website that referred you.
  • Your approximate location (country or city), derived from your IP address.

We do not knowingly collect information from children under 16.

2. How we use your information

We use personal information to:

  • Reply to your enquiry and discuss a potential project.
  • Prepare proposals, contracts and invoices if we work together.
  • Send the newsletter you subscribed to. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email.
  • Keep the website secure and understand how it is used, so we can improve it.
  • Meet our legal, accounting and tax obligations.

Where data protection laws such as the GDPR apply, we process your information because you asked us to (for example, by sending an enquiry), because it is necessary for a contract with you, because you gave consent (for example, to receive the newsletter), or because we have a legitimate interest in running and improving our studio and website.

4. Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with:

  • Service providers who help us run the website and studio, such as our website host, form and email newsletter providers, and accounting software. They may only use your information to provide their service to us.
  • Project partners, such as engineers or contractors, when this is needed for a project you have hired us for.
  • Authorities, when the law requires it or to protect our rights and safety.

5. How long we keep it

We keep enquiries for up to 24 months if a project does not go ahead, and project records for as long as required by law (typically six to ten years). Newsletter details are kept until you unsubscribe.

6. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal information, to object to or restrict how we use it, and to withdraw consent at any time. To make a request, email us at hello@example.com. You may also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.

8. Cookies

Read our Cookie Policy to learn how cookies and similar technologies are used on this website.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last changed.
