Studio NINE23 LLC ("Studio NINE23," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website located at www.studionine23.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our Site or communicate with us in connection with our services.

We take your privacy seriously and are committed to handling any information you share with us responsibly and with care.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information in the following ways:

Information You Provide Directly

When you use our Site's interactive features — including the popup that asks about your role or interest in Studio NINE23 — you may voluntarily provide information such as:

• Your name and email address

• Your professional role or creative category

• Your level of interest in the Studio NINE23 project

When you use the "Let's Talk" contact form, you may also provide additional information about yourself or your inquiry. We use this information solely to follow up with you directly about Studio NINE23's services, partnerships, and availability.

Information Collected Automatically

Our Site is hosted on Squarespace, which automatically collects certain technical information when you visit, including:

• IP address and general geographic location

• Browser type and device information

• Pages visited and time spent on the Site

• Referring URLs

This information is collected through Squarespace's built-in analytics tools and may involve the use of cookies. We use this data only to understand general traffic patterns and improve the Site experience.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected through this Site for the following purposes:

• To respond to your inquiries and follow up on your expressed interest in our services

• To keep you informed about the development of Studio NINE23, including the progress of our permanent studio space and the launch of new offerings

• To improve the Site's content and user experience based on aggregate usage data

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

3. Email Communications and Substack

If you choose to subscribe to our newsletter or email list, that subscription is managed through Substack, a third-party publishing platform. By subscribing, you agree to Substack's Privacy Policy in addition to this one. You may unsubscribe at any time through the link included in any email we send you.

Contact information collected through the Site's forms is used only for direct, individualized communication — not for bulk marketing campaigns.

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

• With Squarespace, our website hosting and analytics provider, as necessary to operate the Site

• With Substack, if you have opted in to our email newsletter

• If required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Studio NINE23 LLC or others

Any third-party service providers we work with are expected to handle your information with appropriate care and in accordance with their own privacy practices.

5. Cookies

Our Site uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to support basic functionality and analytics. Squarespace manages these cookies as part of its hosting infrastructure. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. Disabling cookies may affect some features of the Site.

6. Data Retention

We retain contact information you provide for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected — typically for the duration of our communication with you and for a reasonable period thereafter. You may request deletion of your information at any time by contacting us.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the address below. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.

8. Children's Privacy

This Site is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

9. Links to Third-Party Sites

Our Site may contain links to external websites, including Substack, social media platforms, and other resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies independently.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically. Continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Policy.
