Privacy Policy
Effective Date: May 23, 2026 · Last Updated: June 1, 2026
AP Studios ("we," "us," or "our") operates this website and provides digital marketing services. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you visit apstudios.agency or use our services.
1. Information We Collect
Information You Provide
When you submit a consultation request or contact us through this website, we collect:
- Your name and business name
- Your email address
- Your phone number (if you provide it, for example when booking a consultation)
- Any message or information you choose to share
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit our website, we and our third-party service providers may automatically collect:
- Usage data — pages visited, time on page, referring URLs, browser type, device type
- IP address and approximate location — used for analytics and fraud prevention
- Cookies and tracking technologies — see our Cookie Policy for details
Client Data (Service Clients Only)
During a consultation or pre-engagement review (including any free audit you request), we may review information you share and, with your permission, access you grant to your business or advertising accounts. If you engage our services, we may collect additional information necessary to deliver our marketing services on your behalf, including account access, business information, and performance data. This data is used solely to deliver the services you have engaged us for or requested. For service clients, the handling of any data belonging to your own customers or contacts is governed by your written service agreement and applicable law.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your inquiries and schedule consultations
- Deliver and improve our advertising management services
- Analyze website traffic and improve user experience
- Send service-related communications (no marketing emails without your consent)
- Comply with legal obligations
3. Third-Party Services
We use third-party tools that may process your data. These currently include, for example:
- Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram) — tracks website activity to measure and optimize advertising campaigns. Subject to Meta's Data Policy.
- Google Analytics 4 — analyzes website traffic and user behavior. Data is anonymized where possible. Subject to Google's Privacy Policy.
- Google Tag Manager — manages tracking tags on this website.
- Cal.com — handles appointment scheduling. When you book a consultation, Cal.com processes your name and email under their privacy policy.
- Brevo (Sendinblue) — used for email communication with clients and leads. Email to leads is sent only with their consent or to follow up on an inquiry they initiated.
- Twilio — used for SMS messaging as part of client communication and lead follow-up. When an SMS is sent, your phone number and message content are processed by Twilio under its own privacy policy.
- Third-party AI tools and systems — we use artificial intelligence tools and software (for research, copywriting, image and video generation, automation, and lead follow-up), whether currently in use or adopted in the future. Information and materials may be processed by these AI systems, which operate under their own terms and may process, retain, or use data — including to operate or improve their systems — in ways we do not control.
Each of these services operates under their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing them if you have concerns about how your data is handled by these platforms. AP Studios does not control, is not responsible or liable for, and does not guarantee the data practices, security, retention, or deletion policies of any third-party tool, software, subscription, or AI system. We do not guarantee that any such provider will delete, or refrain from retaining or using, data once it has been processed by them; these providers operate independently under their own terms. The specific tools we use may change over time as we adopt new platforms and AI systems; this policy applies to those tools as well.
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information for money. However, some privacy laws — including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) — define "sale" and "sharing" broadly to include the use of advertising and analytics cookies (such as the Meta Pixel and Google Ads tags) that transmit data about your visit to those platforms for cross-context behavioral advertising. To the extent our use of these cookies is considered a "sale" or "sharing" under applicable law, you may opt out by adjusting your browser cookie settings, using the Google Analytics opt-out add-on, or adjusting your Meta ad preferences, as described in our Cookie Policy. We honor recognized opt-out preference signals (such as Global Privacy Control) where technically feasible.
We share your personal information only in the following circumstances:
- Service providers — third-party tools we use to operate our business (listed above)
- Legal requirements — if required by law, subpoena, or government authority
- Business transfers — if AP Studios is acquired or merges, your data may transfer to the new entity under the same protections
5. Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to deliver our services and fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy. Contact form submissions are retained for up to 2 years. For clients who engage our services, data retention — and the handling and return of any data belonging to you or to your own customers and contacts — is governed by your written service agreement and applicable law. We otherwise retain data only as long as necessary for legitimate business-record and legal obligations, after which we delete or return it upon request.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten")
- Opt out of certain data processing activities
- Data portability
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to verifiable requests within the timeframe required by applicable law. We will act on deletion and other requests with respect to data in our own systems. However, because we rely on third-party tools and AI systems that operate under their own terms and that we do not control, we cannot guarantee the deletion or non-retention of data that has already been processed, stored, or used by those providers; requests regarding data held by a third-party provider must be directed to that provider.
7. Age Restriction
Our services are intended for business owners and professionals. The general website is directed to adults 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 15. Individuals aged 15 to 17 may inquire about or engage our services only with the involvement and written consent of a parent or legal guardian, who must act as guarantor on any service agreement; any advertising account must be held by an adult. If you believe we have received information from someone under 15, contact us at [email protected] and we will delete it promptly.
8. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of our website after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. If you have entered into a written service agreement with AP Studios, that agreement governs how your data is handled in connection with your services; this policy applies to website visitors and general inquiries.
