Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 7, 2026. This policy explains what personal data we collect when you use www.sinkins.studio and the choices you have.

Who We Are

Sinkins (“we”, “us”, “our”) designs and builds websites, apps and digital products, and operates www.sinkins.studio (the “Service”). For the purposes of data protection law, we are the data controller of the personal data described in this policy.

By using the Service you agree to the collection and use of information as described here. Terms not defined here have the meaning given in our Terms & Conditions.

Information you give us. When you fill in a form, email us or message us on WhatsApp we may collect your name, email address, phone or WhatsApp number, company name, project budget and the details you share about your project.

Usage Data. We collect information automatically when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type and version, device identifiers, pages visited, time and date of visit, time spent on pages and other diagnostic data.

Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies, tags and scripts to operate the Service, remember preferences, keep it secure and understand how it is used.

How We Use Your Data

To respond to enquiries and prepare proposals or quotes
To deliver and manage the projects you hire us for, and to invoice you
To provide customer support and notify you of changes
To send news, offers and updates you may be interested in, unless you opt out

Legal Basis for Processing

If you are in the United Kingdom or European Economic Area, we process personal data only where we have a lawful basis: to perform a contract with you or take steps before entering one; with your consent; where it is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your rights; or to comply with the law.

Cookies & Tracking

We use the following kinds of cookies: session cookies to operate the Service, preference cookies to remember your settings, and security cookies for security purposes. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or tell you when one is sent, but some parts of the Service may not work without them.

Sharing & Service Providers

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with trusted service providers who help us run our business (for example hosting, email, analytics, payments and project-management tools). They may access your data only to perform tasks for us and are obliged not to use it for any other purpose.

We may also disclose data where we believe in good faith that it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, protect our rights or property, prevent or investigate wrongdoing, or protect the safety of users or the public.

International Transfers

We work with clients worldwide, so your information may be transferred to and processed in countries where data protection laws differ from those in your jurisdiction, including the United States. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards so that your data is treated securely and in line with this policy. By submitting information you consent to that transfer.

Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes in this policy, including to meet legal, accounting or reporting obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. Usage Data is generally kept for a shorter period unless needed for security, to improve functionality, or required by law.

Security

The security of your data matters to us. We use commercially reasonable measures to protect it, but no method of transmission over the Internet or of electronic storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live (including under the UK GDPR, EU GDPR and applicable US state laws such as those in Illinois and California), you may have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you and receive a portable copy
Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
Request deletion of your data
Object to or restrict our processing
Withdraw consent at any time where we rely on it
Opt out of marketing emails using the unsubscribe link in any message
Complain to your local data protection authority

To exercise any of these rights, email info@sinkins.studio. We may ask you to verify your identity first.

Children’s Privacy

The Service is not directed at anyone under 18 and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

Links to Other Sites

The Service may link to sites we do not operate. We have no control over, and accept no responsibility for, their content or privacy practices. Please review the privacy policy of every site you visit.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version on this page and update the date above. Changes take effect when posted, so please review it periodically.
