Privacy Policy for alexeycreatives.com

Last Updated: March 14, 2025

Last UpdatedWelcome to alexeycreatives.com. This website is a personal portfolio showcasing my work as a graphic designer and offering services such as graphic design and website creation. I value your privacy and am committed to protecting any personal information you share with me. This Privacy Policy explains what information I collect, how I use it, and your rights regarding your data.

1. Information I Collect

I only collect personal information that you voluntarily provide through the contact form on this website. This includes:

  • Name: To address you personally when responding.
  • Email Address: To reply to your inquiries or discuss potential services.
  • Message: The content you submit to describe your needs or questions.

No other personal data is collected automatically unless explicitly stated (e.g., through optional tools like analytics—see below). I do not collect sensitive data beyond what’s necessary to communicate with you.

2. How I Use Your Information

The information you provide via the contact form is used solely for the following purposes:

  • To respond to your inquiries or service requests.
  • To discuss potential graphic design or website creation projects.
  • To follow up if needed to provide the services you’ve requested.

I do not sell, trade, or share your personal information with third parties, except as required by law (see Section 6) or to deliver emails (e.g., via my email provider). Your data is stored securely and used only to facilitate our communication.

3. Cookies and Tracking

Currently, this site does not use cookies or tracking technologies (e.g., Google Analytics) unless otherwise specified. If I add such tools in the future, I will update this policy and provide notice as required by law (e.g., under the California Online Privacy Protection Act – CalOPPA). If cookies are implemented, they would only track basic site usage to improve your experience, and you’ll be informed of how to opt out.

4. Copyrighted Images

All images displayed on alexeycreatives.com are my original work and are protected by copyright under U.S. law (© 2025 AlexeyCreatives). These images may not be copied, reproduced, or used elsewhere without my explicit written permission. If you upload images via the contact form (e.g., to discuss a project), please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS) to protect your privacy. Be aware that visitors could potentially download images and extract any location data they contain—I am not responsible for such actions by third parties.

5. Third-Party Disclosure

I do not share your personal information with third parties except:

  • As required by law (e.g., court order or subpoena).
  • To my email service provider (e.g., Gmail) to send and receive messages, which may store your data per their policies.

6. Data Security

I take reasonable steps to protect your information, such as using secure hosting and password-protected systems. However, no method of online transmission is 100% secure, and I cannot guarantee absolute security. If a data breach occurs, I will notify affected users as required by applicable laws.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data I’ve collected from you.
  • Correction: Ask me to correct inaccurate information.
  • Deletion: Request that I delete your data (e.g., after our communication ends), unless I’m required to retain it by law.

To exercise these rights, contact me at [insert your email address]. I’ll respond within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days.

8. Third-Party Links

This site may include links to external websites (e.g., social media profiles or client sites). I am not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. Please review their policies separately.

9. Children’s Privacy

This website is not directed at children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect data from them. If I learn that a child’s data has been collected, I will delete it promptly in compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

10. Changes to This Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in my practices or legal requirements. The updated version will be posted here with a revised “Last Updated” date. Check back periodically for the latest information.

11. Legal Compliance

This site complies with applicable U.S. laws, including:

  • CalOPPA: I disclose how I collect and use data and honor “Do Not Track” signals if implemented.
  • CCPA (if applicable): If I meet the thresholds (e.g., processing data of 50,000+ California residents annually), I’ll provide a “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” option—currently, this does not apply as I don’t sell data.

12. Contact Me

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or your data, please reach out via the contact form or email me via contact form on this site. March 14, 2025
