Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Information You Provide Directly

When you fill out our contact form, we may collect:

• Your name
• Email address
• Phone number (optional)
• Business name (optional)
• Current website URL (optional)
• Project details and messages you submit

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit our Site, we may automatically collect certain technical information, including:

• IP address and approximate geographic location
• Browser type and version
• Pages visited and time spent on the Site
• Referring website or source
• Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)

We use Google Analytics 4 to measure visits, campaign sources, successful contact form submissions, phone-link clicks, and booking-link clicks. Clicks do not confirm completed calls or meetings. Our custom events do not include your name, email address, phone number, or message. We disable advertising personalization and honor supported Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals. Campaign tags are retained for your browser session and attached to your contact request so we can identify its source.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect solely to:

• Respond to your inquiries and project requests
• Provide quotes, consultations, and web design services
• Send project updates and communications related to your engagement with us
• Improve our website and services
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes.

3. How We Store and Protect Your Information

Contact form submissions are processed and stored through Netlify Forms, a secure third-party service. Netlify maintains industry-standard security practices including encryption in transit (SSL/TLS). You can review Netlify's privacy policy at netlify.com/privacy.

We retain your contact information only as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill your project or respond to your inquiry. We do not store payment information — all transactions are processed through secure third-party payment platforms.

4. Cookies

Google Analytics uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to improve your browsing experience and gather aggregate analytics data. You may disable cookies in your browser settings at any time; however, some features of the Site may not function properly without them.

We do not use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking purposes.

5. Third-Party Services

Our Site may use the following third-party services, each subject to their own privacy policies:

• Google Fonts — for typography (Google Privacy Policy applies)
• Netlify — for site hosting and form submissions
• Google Analytics (if enabled) — for anonymous site traffic analysis

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Request access to personal information we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your personal information
• Withdraw consent for communications at any time

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at contact@rytelldigitalstudio.com. We will respond within 30 days.

Our Site 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 submitted information to us, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
