Communications you send to us by email or other means
We may also collect limited non-personal information automatically, such as:

This information is collected through analytics tools to help us understand how visitors engage with our site.

Art Sales and Transactions
When you purchase artwork through our gallery or online platforms, transaction details are used solely to complete the sale, provide customer service, and meet record-keeping requirements. Payment processing is handled through secure third-party services, and we do not store full credit card information.
In some cases, an email address or phone number may be shared with the artist whose work was purchased for the purpose of personal follow-up related to that sale. Once shared, the use of this information is governed by the artist and not by The Studio Door.

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect information such as page visits and usage patterns. This data helps us improve site functionality and content.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings.
Sharing of Information
We may share information only when necessary to operate our services, such as with trusted service providers for email delivery, website hosting, analytics, or payment processing. These providers are required to protect your information and use it only for the services they provide to us.
We may also disclose information if required by law.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure. While no system is completely secure, we strive to use appropriate safeguards consistent with the nature of the information we collect.
External Links
Our website or communications may include links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites.
