Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

When you contact us through the website's contact form, we collect the information you voluntarily provide, including:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Phone number (if provided)
  • Message or project details

This information is collected only when you choose to submit it.

Information Collected Automatically

When you browse this website, our custom-built analytics system automatically collects limited technical and usage information to help us understand how visitors interact with the website. This information may include:

  • Pages visited
  • Projects viewed
  • Approximate country and city
  • Referral source (when available)
  • Browser and device information
  • General website usage statistics

This information is collected in a privacy-focused manner. We do not store raw IP addresses, and the information collected is not used to personally identify individual visitors.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to inquiries submitted through our contact form
  • Discuss potential projects or collaborations
  • Improve the performance, usability, and content of our website
  • Better understand how visitors interact with the website
  • Maintain records of previous communications when appropriate

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

Analytics

ShiStudios uses a custom-built analytics platform hosted alongside this website instead of a traditional third-party analytics service. Our analytics system:

  • Records anonymous page visits and project views
  • Tracks overall website traffic trends
  • Records approximate country and city information
  • Excludes known bots whenever possible
  • Excludes authenticated administrator visits
  • Does not store raw IP addresses
  • Uses collected information solely to improve the website and better understand visitor engagement

To determine approximate location, a one-time request may be made to a geolocation service during a visit. ShiStudios does not permanently retain raw IP addresses after this lookup.

Cookies

This website may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for website functionality and to support anonymous analytics.

You may disable cookies through your browser settings. Doing so may affect certain website features or reduce the accuracy of anonymous visitor statistics.

Third-Party Services

We rely on trusted third-party providers to operate portions of our website and business. These services may include:

  • Website hosting providers
  • Email or messaging services used to receive inquiries
  • Geolocation services used solely to determine approximate visitor location for analytics purposes

These providers process information according to their own privacy policies and security practices.

Data Retention

Contact form submissions are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to:

  • Respond to your inquiry
  • Maintain records of previous project discussions
  • Comply with applicable legal or business obligations

Anonymous analytics information may be retained for historical reporting and website performance analysis.

You may request deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting us.

Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect the information we collect.

While we strive to protect your information using commercially reasonable security measures, no method of electronic transmission or online storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal information
  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your personal information
  • Object to certain uses of your personal information
  • Request a copy of your personal information where applicable
