Privacy Policy
AETHER Studio ("we," "us," "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect through this website, why we collect it, and what rights you have over it.
Who We Are
AETHER Studio is an independent design and development practice offering brand identity, digital product design, and Framer development services. This website is our primary point of contact for prospective clients.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information in two ways:
a) Information you provide directly
Contact / project brief form: name, work email, company name, and the message you submit.
Newsletter signup: your email address, if you choose to subscribe to studio dispatches.
b) Information collected automatically
Basic analytics data (pages visited, general location by country/city, device and browser type, referral source) collected via [your analytics tool, e.g. Framer Analytics / Plausible / Google Analytics — name whichever you actually use].
We do not use invasive tracking or sell any data collected through analytics.
We do not collect payment information on this site. If you purchase a template or product from us through a separate platform (e.g. our Framer Marketplace listing), that transaction is handled entirely by that platform's own payment processor and privacy policy, not by us.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
a) Information you provide directly
Respond to project inquiries and prepare proposals
Send studio updates or essays, only if you've subscribed
Understand how visitors use the site, so we can improve it
Maintain records of past client communications for our own business purposes
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
3. Cookies
This site may use essential cookies required for basic functionality (e.g. remembering your cookie preference) and, if enabled, analytics cookies to understand site usage. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time.
4. Third-Party Services
We may use third-party tools to operate this site and our studio communications, including:
Framer (website hosting and form handling)
[Your email/newsletter provider, e.g. Mailchimp / ConvertKit]
[Your analytics provider, if any]
Each of these providers processes data under their own privacy policies. We only share the minimum data necessary for them to perform their function (e.g. your email address with our newsletter provider).
5. Data Retention
We retain contact form submissions and project inquiries for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to you and maintain business records, typically no longer than [X months/years — set a real number]. Newsletter subscriber data is kept until you unsubscribe.
6. Your Rights
If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with similar data protection laws, you have the right to:
Request access to the personal data we hold about you
Request correction or deletion of your personal data
Withdraw consent (e.g. unsubscribe from our newsletter) at any time
Object to or restrict certain processing of your data
Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority
7. Data Storage & International Transfers
This studio operates from Pakistan. If you are located in the EU, UK, or elsewhere, your information may be processed in a country outside your own. We take reasonable steps to ensure any third-party service we use provides an adequate level of data protection.
8. Children's Privacy
This website is intended for business and professional use and is not directed at individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent version.
10. Contact Us
If you have questions about this policy or how your data is handled, reach out at [your business email] or through the contact form on this site.
Before you publish fill in the bracketed placeholders
Your actual business/support email
Which analytics tool you're actually using (or remove that line if none)
Which newsletter provider you're using (or remove if none)
A real data retention period
Have a professional (or a generator like Termly/Iubenda) review the GDPR rights section before this goes live, since your clients are EU-based
