Privacy Policy.

1. Who is responsible

Studio Base Design is responsible for the personal information described in this policy. Privacy questions, access requests and complaints can be sent to [email protected].

2. Information we collect

We may collect your name, company, work email, phone or messaging contact, language, enquiry details, project correspondence and information you choose to provide. Our systems may also receive IP address, device and browser details, timestamps, referral pages, security logs and essential session identifiers. Please do not send sensitive personal information unless we have agreed a secure and necessary way to receive it.

3. Why and on what basis we use it

We use information to answer enquiries, arrange a Systems Fit Call, prepare and deliver contracted work, maintain conversations, secure and improve the website, keep business records and meet legal obligations.

• Steps requested before a contract and performance of a contract
• Our legitimate interests in responding, operating and protecting the service
• Consent for optional analytics or marketing technology where required
• Compliance with applicable legal obligations

4. Cookies and website analytics

The site uses an essential session cookie so the website assistant can continue a conversation; it is currently retained for up to 30 days. We may use tools such as Google Search Console to understand search visibility. We may later add Google Analytics, Meta Pixel or comparable analytics and advertising tools. Where law requires it, non-essential tools will be enabled only after consent and the site controls and this policy will be updated.

5. Service providers and no sale of data

We do not sell or rent personal information. We disclose only what is reasonably necessary to providers that support hosting, content delivery, forms and chat, CRM, email, security, analytics or advertising, and to professional advisers or authorities when legally required. Those providers may process data under their own terms and privacy notices.

6. International processing

Studio Base Design operates from Georgia and may use providers or client systems in Australia, the United States, the European Economic Area and other countries. Where applicable, we assess cross-border disclosure and use contractual, organisational or other lawful safeguards for international transfers.

7. Retention and security

We retain information only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, active conversations and projects, security, legal records, disputes and enforcement. We use proportionate access controls, restricted credentials, backups, updates and monitoring, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.

8. Your rights

Rights depend on where you live and whether the relevant law applies. Contact us to exercise them; we may need to verify identity before responding.

• Australia: request access or correction and complain to us; unresolved eligible complaints may be taken to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner
• EEA/UK: request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or portability, withdraw consent, and complain to your supervisory authority
• United States: residents of applicable states may have rights to know, access, correct, delete or obtain a copy, and to opt out of certain sale, sharing or targeted advertising; we do not discriminate for exercising applicable rights

9. Children

The site and services are intended for businesses and are not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this site.

10. Changes and contact

We may update this policy when our services, providers or legal obligations change. The revised date will appear above and material changes will be highlighted or consent requested where required. Contact [email protected] with a question, request or complaint.
