Whether you’re browsing the site or reaching out for a project, this policy covers how we handle your data.

1. What We Collect

We collect a few things — but only what’s necessary to run the site, deliver client work, or stay in touch with you. Here’s what that might include:

• Basic contact info (like your name, email, or company) when you submit a project inquiry or contact form.
• Anonymous analytics data (like page views, device type, and visit duration) to understand site performance.
• Project-related files, brand guidelines, content, and feedback if we collaborate on a project.
• Any information you voluntarily choose to share during emails, discovery calls, or project chats.

2. How We Use Information

We only use collected data for clear, practical purposes. This includes:

• Responding directly to your messages, proposals, and project inquiries.
• Delivering design, branding, and engineering deliverables during active projects.
• Sending milestone updates and contract deliverables.
• Improving site speed, usability, and reading experience.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We never use your contact details for spam, retargeting campaigns, or third-party marketing lists.

3. Data Storage & Security

All personal information is stored securely and only accessible by studio team members who need it to complete the work. We rely on industry-standard, encrypted platforms (such as Google Workspace, GitHub, Notion, and Slack) and protect all internal workflows with two-factor authentication.

Project design files, code repositories, and brand deliverables are safely archived for client backup and reference purposes only.

4. Third-Party Services

Like most modern web studios, we utilize a small set of trusted tools to provide high-quality services:

• Vercel — for global high-speed hosting and serverless form handling.
• Formspree — for secure, encrypted contact form processing.
• GitHub — for code version control and CMS automated builds.
• Framer & Figma — for collaborative design reviews and asset delivery.

These platforms maintain strict data protection standards and do not have access to your personal data beyond what is required to execute their specific service.

5. Cookies & Tracking

Our website uses minimal, non-invasive cookies necessary for navigation and performance. We do not use intrusive tracking pixels or sell ad space. You can easily adjust or disable cookies in your browser settings at any time without impacting your ability to browse our case studies.

6. Your Rights

You have full control over your data. At any time, you may:

• Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Ask us to update or correct any inaccuracies.
• Request the complete deletion of your inquiry data and contact history.
• Opt out of future communications.

To exercise any of these rights, simply email us directly at hello@diye.studio.

7. Data Retention

If you become a studio client, we retain project files, contract scopes, and correspondence for reference and ongoing collaboration. For inquiries that do not move forward, we automatically purge lead contact records after 12 months.
