Privacy Policy

Mr.C's Digital Studio ("we," "us," or "our"), operating in the United States, respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit mrcdigitalstudio.com (the "Website") or engage our web design and development services.

1. Information We Collect

We only collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you inquire about our services via our discovery call booking form. This includes:

• Contact Identifiers: Full name and email address provided during inquiry submission.
• Project Parameters: Project scope, estimated budget range, and notes detailing what you are building.
• Server Operational Logs: Basic technical logs (such as IP address and user-agent string) automatically generated by our hosting infrastructure strictly for DDoS mitigation, security auditing, and operational stability.

2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We do not use tracking cookies. We do not deploy advertising pixels, third-party marketing beacons, or cross-site fingerprinting scripts. We solely utilize standard client-side localStorage to store your display theme preference (Dark Mode or Light Mode). Because we do not deploy non-essential or tracking cookies, a cookie consent banner is neither legally required nor intrusive to your browsing experience.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information exclusively for legitimate business communication:

• To respond directly to your project inquiry and facilitate discovery call scheduling.
• To generate accurate project proposals, scope documentation, and estimates.
• To maintain communication throughout contracted web development engagements.
• We do not build advertising profiles, nor do we send unsolicited promotional newsletters.

4. How We Share Your Information

We never sell, rent, or monetize your personal information. We only transmit data to vetted infrastructure providers strictly necessary to fulfill our service commitments:

• Formspree: Encrypted transport processor for contact form inquiries.
• Calendly: Direct discovery call scheduling integration.
• Legal Mandate: We will only disclose personal records where required by enforceable legal process, subpoena, or applicable United States federal or state court order.

5. California Privacy Rights (CCPA / CPRA)

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act, California residents hold the right to:

• Request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected.
• Request deletion of personal information retained by us.
• Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
• Be free from discrimination for exercising any of your consumer privacy rights.

We do not sell or share personal data as defined under California law. To exercise any California privacy rights, contact us at the address below.

6. European Economic Area & UK Rights (GDPR)

If you are located within the EEA or United Kingdom, you hold rights under the General Data Protection Regulation including the right to access, rectify, port, erase, or object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests. Contact us to submit a verified data subject access request.

7. Data Retention and Security

We retain submitted project inquiries only for as long as necessary to maintain client communications and legal accounting records. All data in transit is protected using Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with 256-bit TLS encryption.
