COOKIES & WEBSITE ANALYTICS

Our website is hosted by Squarespace, which may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality, security, and performance.

Depending on website settings, analytics tools may collect information about visitor activity, such as page views, traffic sources, and device characteristics.

Visitors may manage cookies through their browser settings and any cookie preference controls made available on this website.

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

CUDNEY CREATIVE may use third-party platforms to host our website, manage communications, store project files, deliver creative content, and support business operations.

These providers may process information as necessary to deliver their services and are subject to their respective privacy policies and contractual obligations.

Links to external websites, social media platforms, and third-party services are governed by those organizations' privacy practices.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE & DATA PRIVACY

CUDNEY CREATIVE may incorporate artificial intelligence into selected creative workflows, including image enhancement, retouching, compositing, video editing, audio processing, and content generation.

When AI-assisted tools are used, certain project materials may be processed through third-party software or service providers.

We take reasonable steps to protect confidential client information and limit unnecessary disclosure of personal or proprietary materials.

Where appropriate, the use of AI tools involving confidential client assets, identifiable individuals, or sensitive project information will be addressed through client agreements or project-specific authorizations.

Third-party AI services may maintain their own data retention, processing, and model-training policies. We evaluate these practices when selecting tools and handling sensitive project materials.

CLIENT CONFIDENTIALITY

Project briefs, unpublished photographs, raw video footage, audio recordings, production materials, and confidential business information are handled with reasonable care.

Client materials are used for legitimate project purposes, subject to applicable contractual obligations and permissions.

Portfolio publication and promotional use of commissioned work are governed by applicable agreements, releases, and intellectual property rights.

DATA SECURITY & RETENTION

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Personal information is retained only as reasonably necessary for business operations, project fulfillment, recordkeeping, dispute resolution, or applicable legal requirements.

YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and to object to or opt out of certain processing activities.

To submit a privacy-related request, contact us using the email address below. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request and may retain certain information where permitted or required by law.

CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed toward children under the age of 13.

We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children under 13 through this website. If we become aware that such information has been collected without appropriate authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
