Privacy Policy

ForgeVox Studio Effective Date: May 25, 2026 Last Updated: May 25, 2026

1. Overview

ForgeVox Studio is a remote web development and design agency. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our website (forgevoxstudio.com), how we use it, and what choices you have. We keep it straightforward because we're a small agency — not a data broker, not a SaaS platform.

If you have questions about this policy, contact us at: studioforgevox@gmail.com

2. Information We Collect

We only collect information you actively provide or that standard web tools generate automatically.

Information you provide directly:

• Contact form submissions — Your name, email address, phone number (if provided), and the details of your inquiry. Our contact forms are powered by Tally (tally.so).
• Scheduling requests — If you book a discovery call through our Calendly link, Calendly collects your name, email, and any notes you enter. We receive a copy of that booking information.
• Direct email or phone contact — If you reach out to us by email or phone, we retain that communication for the purpose of responding and following up.

Information collected automatically:

• Usage and analytics data — We may use Google Analytics or Google Search Console to understand general traffic patterns (pages visited, session duration, approximate geographic region). This data is aggregated and does not personally identify you by default.
• Cookies — Our website may set basic cookies to support analytics and site functionality. We do not use tracking cookies for advertising. See Section 6 for more detail.

What we do NOT collect:

• Passwords or account credentials (we have no user accounts)
• Payment information (no payments are processed on this website)
• File uploads
• Sensitive personal data (health, financial, government ID)

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected for the following purposes:

• To respond to your inquiry and evaluate whether a project is a good fit
• To schedule and prepare for discovery calls or consultations
• To follow up on prior conversations
• To understand how our website is being used so we can improve it
• To comply with any applicable legal obligations

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

4. Third-Party Services

Our website integrates with third-party tools to operate. Each has its own privacy policy.

When you submit a form through Tally or book through Calendly, your data is processed on their platforms and governed by their respective privacy policies in addition to ours. We encourage you to review them if you have concerns.

5. External Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, including portfolio examples of client sites we have built. These external sites are not operated by us. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of any third-party website. Clicking an external link means you leave our site and are subject to that site's terms.

6. Cookies

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies in the following ways:

• Analytics cookies — Used by Google Analytics to track aggregated, anonymized usage data (if enabled).
• Functional cookies — Small cookies set by tools like Calendly or Tally when those embeds load on our site.

Most browsers allow you to manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some site functionality. We do not use cookies to serve you ads or build behavioral profiles.

7. Data Retention

We retain inquiry and contact information for as long as it is reasonably necessary to manage our business relationship with you. In practice, this means:

• Active leads and project conversations: retained while relevant
• Closed or inactive inquiries: generally reviewed and cleared periodically (typically within 12–24 months of last contact)
• Analytics data: governed by the retention settings of the respective platform (e.g., Google Analytics default)

You may request deletion of your information at any time by contacting us (see Section 10).

8. Data Security

We take reasonable precautions to protect your information. Our website is hosted on Lovable, which provides standard web hosting infrastructure. Data submitted through Tally and Calendly is stored on those platforms' secure systems. We do not store form submission data in a proprietary database.

We cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the internet. Please use discretion when submitting sensitive information through any web form.

9. International and Remote Operations

ForgeVox Studio is a remote agency. We primarily serve clients in the United States and Canada. Our website is accessible globally, and data may be processed through third-party tools whose servers are located in the United States or other countries. By using our website, you acknowledge this.

We do not currently operate under formal GDPR compliance frameworks, though we apply reasonable data minimization and transparency practices. If you are located in a jurisdiction with specific privacy rights (such as California under CCPA or the EU under GDPR), please contact us to discuss your request and we will respond in good faith.

10. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you are located, you may have the right to:

• Request access to the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your information
• Opt out of future communications from us

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at: [your privacy email]

We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling.

11. Children's Privacy

Our website 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 through our site, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our services evolve. We will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page when changes are made. Continued use of our website after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
