This Privacy Policy explains how Studio VP ("we", "us" or "our") collects, uses and protects personal information when you visit **[www.studiovp.com.au](http://www.studiovp.com.au)** or contact us through the website. We handle personal information in accordance with applicable Australian privacy laws, including the **Privacy Act 1988 (Cth)** and the Australian Privacy Principles, where those laws apply to us. 1. Information we collect We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us, including when you complete the contact form on our website. This may include: * your name; * email address; * phone number; * project or enquiry details; * the contents of your message; and * any other information you choose to provide to us. We may also collect limited technical information automatically when you visit our website, such as your IP address, browser type, device information and information about how you interact with the website. We do not currently use Google Analytics or similar analytics services to track your activity across the website. 2. How we collect your information We generally collect personal information directly from you. This may occur when you: * submit an enquiry through our website contact form; * contact us by email or phone; * communicate with us through social media; or * otherwise communicate with Studio VP. Our website is hosted using Squarespace. Information submitted through our website forms is processed using Squarespace and the storage options connected to our form. Squarespace states that form submissions may be stored through the email address or other storage services connected to the form. 3. How we use your information We use the personal information you provide to: * respond to your enquiries; * communicate with you about potential or existing projects; * provide information about Studio VP and our services; * manage our business relationship with you; * administer and maintain our website; * protect the security of our website and systems; and * comply with our legal obligations. We will only use your personal information for purposes reasonably connected with our business and the reason you provided it, unless otherwise permitted or required by law. 4. Contact form When you submit an enquiry through our contact form, the information you provide is collected so that we can receive, review and respond to your enquiry. The information you submit may be provided to **Squarespace**, our website hosting provider, and stored through the storage method connected to our contact form. We do not sell, rent or otherwise trade your personal information. Please avoid submitting sensitive personal information through the website contact form unless it is necessary for your enquiry. 5. Cookies and website technologies Our website may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for the website to function properly. Squarespace may also use cookies and other technologies to provide, secure and maintain its website services. We do not currently use Google Analytics on the website. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the website. 6. Disclosure of personal information We may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary to operate our business and website, including to: * Squarespace and other website service providers; * email or communication service providers; * professional advisers where necessary; * government authorities or regulators where required by law; or * other parties where you have provided consent or disclosure is otherwise permitted or required by law. We do not sell your personal information. 7. Overseas disclosure‍ ‍

Because our website is hosted by Squarespace and we may use third-party technology and communication services, your personal information may be stored or processed outside Australia. The location of data storage and processing may depend on the services and providers we use and may change from time to time. Where applicable Australian privacy laws require us to take steps in relation to overseas disclosures, we will do so.

8. Security We take reasonable steps to protect personal information we hold from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. Information submitted through our website is transmitted using the security measures provided by our website and hosting providers. However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure. 9. How long we keep your information

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to respond to enquiries, manage projects, maintain business records and comply with legal obligations. When personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete or de-identify it where appropriate.

10. Access and correction You may request access to personal information we hold about you. You may also ask us to correct information if you believe it is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date. To make an access or correction request, please contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding to your request. 11. Privacy complaints If you have a concern or complaint about how Studio VP has handled your personal information, please contact us first so that we can investigate and respond.
