Introduction This Privacy Policy explains how JCY Tattoo (the "Studio") collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information provided through the website at jcytattoo.com (the "Site").
 

JCY Tattoo is committed to protecting privacy in accordance with applicable Canadian laws, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and Alberta's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA).
By using the Site or submitting information (e.g., via contact or booking forms), visitors agree to the practices described here.

Information Collected The Site collects only the personal information voluntarily provided:
 

• Through contact, booking, or inquiry forms: name, email address, phone number (if provided), message content, and any details about tattoo/piercing ideas (e.g., descriptions or uploaded references).
   

No other personal information is collected automatically, except for essential technical data (e.g., IP address for security). The Studio does not collect sensitive information such as health data, financial details, or information from children under 13.
 

How Information Is Used Collected information is used solely to:
 

• Respond to inquiries, booking requests, or messages.

• Communicate about appointments, consultations, or follow-ups related to tattoo and piercing services.
   

Information is not used for marketing, newsletters, or unrelated purposes unless explicit consent is provided later.

Sharing and Disclosure Personal information is not sold, rented, or traded.
 

Limited sharing may occur with:
 

• Service providers (e.g., Squarespace for website hosting and forms, Google Workspace for email) who assist in operating the Site and are bound by confidentiality obligations.

• Legal authorities if required by law (e.g., court order) or to protect rights and safety.
   

No routine international transfers occur beyond standard service provider safeguards (e.g., Squarespace/Google data centers).
 

Cookies and Tracking Technologies The Site uses essential cookies for functionality (e.g., session management via Squarespace). Analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics, if enabled) may collect anonymized usage data (e.g., page views) to improve the Site.
 

Visitors can manage cookies through browser settings or the Site's cookie banner (if enabled). For more, refer to Wix's Cookie Policy.
 

Data Retention Information from inquiries or bookings is retained only as long as necessary to respond or fulfill the request (typically a few months) or as required by law, after which it is securely deleted.
 

Individual Rights Under PIPEDA and PIPA, individuals have the right to:
 

• Access personal information held by JCY Tattoo.

• Request corrections if inaccurate.

• Withdraw consent (where applicable) or request deletion (subject to legal obligations).
   

Requests can be made by contacting the Studio (details below). Responses will be provided within 30 days, as required by law.
 

Security Reasonable measures are taken to protect information, including SSL encryption and Squarespace's secure hosting. However, no online transmission or storage is completely secure.
 

Changes to This Policy This policy may be updated periodically. Changes will be posted here with the revised date. Continued use of the Site after updates constitutes acceptance.
