How We Handle Your Information

Last updated: September 2026

This page explains what personal information Ourfolk Studio collects through this website, why we collect it, and how it is handled. Ourfolk Studio is a solo web design studio based in Switzerland.

What We Collect

When you submit the contact form on this site, we collect the information you choose to provide, which currently includes:

Beyond what you submit through the form, this website's hosting infrastructure ordinarily processes standard technical information needed to serve any webpage — such as your IP address, browser and device type, and request timestamps. This is routine server-level processing common to operating any website; we do not access it for any additional purpose, combine it with your form submission, or use it to build a profile of you. We do not currently use analytics or tracking tools of any kind.

Why We Collect It

We use the information you submit solely to respond to your inquiry and to communicate with you about your project. We do not use it for marketing, and we do not sell or share it with third parties for their own purposes.

How Your Submission Is Stored

We use third-party service providers for website hosting, content delivery, and form processing necessary to operate this website. Currently, contact form submissions are processed and stored using Netlify Forms, a service provided by Netlify, Inc., a company based in the United States. This means your submission may be processed on servers outside Switzerland and the European Union. Netlify acts as our data processor for this purpose; you can review Netlify's own privacy practices at netlify.com/privacy. If we change service providers, we will update this section to name the provider actually in use.

Fonts

This site loads typefaces from Google Fonts. Loading a font from Google's servers means your browser sends a request directly to Google, which may include your IP address, as part of how the font is delivered. Google's handling of this data is described at policies.google.com/privacy. Google Fonts is the only Google service used by this website — we do not use Google Analytics, Google Maps, reCAPTCHA, or any other Google product that processes visitor data on this site.

How Long We Keep It

We keep your contact form submission only for as long as it is reasonably needed to respond to your inquiry and, if we begin working together, to maintain a record of our engagement. You may ask us to delete your information at any time, and we will do so unless we are required to keep it for a legitimate business or legal reason.

Your Rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have the right to ask us to:

To exercise any of these rights, or if you have any question about how your information is handled, please contact us using the details below.

Changes to This Policy

If the way this website collects or uses personal information changes, for example if we introduce analytics or a new third-party service, we will update this page to reflect that.

Search Privacy

This page and the site's other legal pages are marked so that search engines are asked not to index them, while remaining accessible to anyone who visits this website directly and opens them from the footer. This is intended to reduce the likelihood that searching for the site owner's name together with Switzerland, Schwyz, Pfäffikon, or Ourfolk Studio leads to this website, without hiding legally required information from visitors. This cannot guarantee the owner's name will never appear anywhere in search results, since that also depends on other websites and services outside our control.
