Makely (“we”, “us”, or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our services or visit our website.
Information We Collect
When you submit a design request, contact us, or make a payment, we collect personal details such as your name, email address, and project information. We also process billing details in order to complete transactions, though full card details are never stored by us and are handled securely by third-party providers such as Stripe or PayPal. In addition, we may collect limited usage data, such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited, to help us improve our website and services.
How we use your information
We use the information we collect only to provide and deliver our design services, to communicate with you about your project by email or Slack, to process payments, and to improve our overall service. We do not sell or trade your personal information, and we will only share it with trusted providers where necessary to deliver the service, or with legal authorities where required by law.
Data Retention and Security
Your personal data will be retained for as long as it is necessary to provide services and comply with legal obligations. Design files and project records may be stored securely for future reference unless you request that they be deleted. We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data against loss, misuse, or unauthorised access, but as with any internet-based service, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
International Transfers
Because Makely works with global clients, your information may be transferred outside the UK. Where this occurs, we take steps to ensure that adequate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses, so that your rights remain protected.
Your Rights
Under data protection laws, you have certain rights. You may request access to the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, restrict or object to certain types of processing, or request portability of your data. If processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. To exercise these rights, please contact us at hello@makely.studio.
Cookies
Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies help us understand how the site is used and allow us to improve its functionality. You can control cookie settings within your browser at any time.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. The most recent version will always be published on our website, and we encourage you to review it regularly.
