Privacy Policy
How your data is collected, used, and protected.
Effective date
Effective Date: February 22, 2026.
Who this policy applies to
This policy applies to people who browse the website, submit inquiries, contact Jude Panotes about services, or otherwise share information through the site’s forms or communication channels. Because the site is built to offer graphic design, branding, web design and development, and creative strategy the policy should cover both casual visitors and project inquiries.
Information collected
The website may collect information you choose to provide directly through forms or messages. Based on the contact page structure already created for the site, this may include your name, email address, business or brand name, website or social link, service needed, project goals, timeline, budget range, and project details.
The website may also collect basic technical or usage information automatically, such as browser type, device information, pages visited, approximate location, referral source, and general site interaction data. This type of information is commonly used to understand how the website is being used and to improve performance and usability.
How information is used
Information submitted through the website may be used to:
• Respond to inquiries and project requests.
• Review project needs and recommend appropriate services.
• Communicate about timelines, scope, and next steps.
• Improve the website, services, and user experience.
• Maintain records related to client communication and service delivery.
If analytics or other website tools are used, information may also help understand which pages, services, or content are most useful to visitors. The site structure includes service pages, blog content, works or case studies, and contact pathways, so usage data may be used to improve those sections over time.
Contact forms and inquiries
When you submit an inquiry through the website, the information you provide is used to review your request and respond to you about your project. This may include evaluating which service category best fits your inquiry, such as graphic design, branding, web design and development, video editing, creative strategy, or automation and AI solutions.
Please avoid submitting sensitive personal information unless it is necessary for the project discussion. Only the information relevant to communication, project planning, or service evaluation should be shared through the website.
Cookies and analytics
The website may use cookies, analytics tools, or similar technologies to understand how visitors use the site and to improve the browsing experience. This may include information such as pages visited, time spent on the website, traffic sources, and general interaction patterns.
If third-party analytics tools are used, those tools may collect data according to their own privacy practices. Visitors can usually manage cookie preferences through their browser settings. General website functionality may still work even if some cookies are disabled, though some tracking or convenience features may be limited.
How information is shared
Personal information is not sold to third parties. Information may only be shared when necessary for legitimate business or technical reasons, such as:
• Using website hosting or form processing services.
• Using email or communication tools to respond to inquiries.
• Using analytics or website performance tools.
• Meeting legal obligations if required by law.
Any third-party tools used to run the website or manage communication may process limited information as part of their service. If those services are used, they are expected to handle data according to their own privacy and security standards.
Data retention
Inquiry and communication records may be kept for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to requests, manage project discussions, maintain business records, or support ongoing services. If the information is no longer needed for these purposes, it should be deleted or securely removed within a reasonable period.
Data security
Reasonable steps should be taken to protect personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, loss, or disclosure. While no website or digital system can guarantee absolute security, efforts should be made to use appropriate tools and safeguards to protect information shared through the site.
Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights related to your personal information, such as the right to:
• Request access to the personal data you have shared.
• Request correction of inaccurate information.
• Request deletion of your information, where appropriate.
• Object to or restrict certain types of processing.
• Withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing.
Requests related to personal information can be made using the contact details provided on the website. A response should be provided within a reasonable time, subject to legal or operational requirements.
Third-party links
The website may include links to external websites, portfolio platforms, social media accounts, or third-party tools. The privacy practices of those external websites are not controlled by Jude Panotes, and visitors should review their policies separately before sharing information there.
Updates to this policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in the website, services, tools, legal requirements, or business practices. When updates are made, the revised version should be posted on this page with a new effective date.
Contact
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or how your information is handled, you can use the site’s contact page to get in touch. The website already includes a dedicated contact and inquiry flow for project-related communication.
