Data We Collect

We may collect identifiers and contact details, order and inquiry details, uploaded image files, file specifications, proofing preferences, payment-related records, delivery or collection instructions, and limited technical data such as device or browser information. Where users submit artwork or photographs, we also process the content of those files to provide printing, review, and production services.

The categories of data collected depend on the service request and the information needed to complete it.

How We Collect Data

We receive data when users submit an inquiry, upload files, request a quote, approve a proof, place an order, or communicate with us by available contact methods. We also collect certain information automatically through the website and related service tools, such as basic usage logs and cookie data. In some cases, we may receive delivery or payment-related information from service providers involved in completing the transaction.

Most information comes directly from users, while some technical data is generated during site use.

Types of Cookies

The website may use essential cookies to support core functions, preference cookies to remember basic settings, and analytics or performance cookies to understand site use. These cookies help maintain sessions, improve navigation, and assess whether pages and forms are working as intended.

Cookie Controls

Users may manage cookies through their browser controls and, where available, through site settings. Blocking some cookies may affect file upload functions, session continuity, or preference storage. We do not rely on cookies to collect more information than is needed for basic site operation and measurement.

User Rights

Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, users may request access to their personal data, correction of inaccurate information, deletion of data that is no longer needed, or restriction of certain processing activities. Users may also object to processing based on legitimate interests where that ground applies. If consent is used for a specific activity, it may be withdrawn for future processing.

Available rights depend on applicable law and the nature of the information involved.
Requests

How to Make a Request

To protect privacy and prevent unauthorized disclosure, we may ask for information needed to verify a request and to understand the scope of the data involved. Some requests may be limited where retention is required by law or where the information is needed to complete an active order or resolve a dispute. We will respond within a reasonable period and in accordance with applicable law.

Requests are reviewed against identity, scope, and legal requirements before any action is taken.
Data Retention

Data Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as needed to manage inquiries, complete orders, maintain business records, support proofing and production, and meet legal or accounting requirements. When data is no longer required, we delete it or de-identify it where appropriate. Some records may be retained for a longer period if needed to address disputes, enforce agreements, or comply with law.

Retention is based on the purpose of collection, legal obligations, and the need to resolve service issues.

The revised version will apply from the date it is posted unless a different effective date is stated. Users should review the policy periodically to stay informed about how information is handled.
