This Privacy Policy explains how Scott Seton Hancock (“we,” “us,” “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit scottsetonhancock.com (the “Site”), subscribe to updates, or contact us.

1) Information We Collect

We collect information in three main ways:

A. Information you provide directly

• Contact / inquiry information (e.g., name, email address, message contents) when you submit a form or email us.

• Newsletter or updates subscription information (e.g., email address; sometimes name if you provide it).

• Any information you choose to include in your message (e.g., inquiry context, availability, shipping location, press requests).

B. Information collected automatically
When you browse the Site, we (and our service providers) may automatically collect:

• Device and usage data (e.g., IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent, referring URL).

• Approximate location (derived from IP address).

• Cookie and similar technology data used for site functionality and analytics.

C. Information from third parties
If you interact with us through third-party platforms (e.g., social media) or click embedded content, those platforms may collect information under their own policies.

2) How We Use Your Information

We use personal information to:

• Respond to inquiries, requests, and communications.

• Provide studio visit coordination, availability details, and follow-ups you request.

• Send updates or newsletters if you subscribe (you can unsubscribe at any time).

• Improve the Site’s performance, usability, and content.

• Maintain site security, prevent fraud, and troubleshoot issues.

• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

3) How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share personal information in limited circumstances:

• Service providers who help operate the Site and communications (e.g., website hosting, form processing, email delivery, analytics). They are permitted to use personal information only to provide services to us.

• Legal and compliance when required by law, subpoena, court order, or to protect rights, safety, and security.

• Business transfers if our operations are reorganized (e.g., merger, acquisition, asset sale), where information may transfer as part of that transaction.

4) Cookies, Analytics, and Similar Technologies

The Site may use cookies and similar technologies for:

• Essential site functionality (security, page delivery).

• Analytics to understand traffic and improve the Site.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you block cookies, some parts of the Site may not function properly.

Do Not Track: Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” signals. Because there is no consistent industry standard for how to respond, we do not currently respond to these signals.

5) Email Communications

If you subscribe to updates, you may receive emails from us. You can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe link in the email or contacting us at the address below.

Even if you unsubscribe, we may still send non-promotional messages when necessary (e.g., responding to an inquiry you initiated).

6) Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to:

• Respond to requests and maintain records of communications,

• Provide services you request,

• Comply with legal, accounting, or reporting obligations, and

• Protect the security and integrity of our operations.

7) Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical steps to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8) Children’s Privacy

The Site is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

9) Third-Party Links and Embedded Content

The Site may contain links to third-party websites or embedded content. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. Please review their privacy policies before providing information.
