Privacy Policy

Overview

This policy explains what information is collected when you visit barbaraloera.com, how it is used, and the choices available to you. This site is operated by Barbara Loera, an independent creative director based in Sugar Land, Texas.

The short version: information you submit is used only to respond to your inquiry. It is never sold, rented, or shared for marketing purposes.

Information you provide

When you submit the contact form, you may provide:

• Your name and email address
• Company or organization name and website (optional)
• Project type, description, timeline, and budget range
• How you heard about this site (optional)

Only your name, email, project type, and project description are required. Everything else is optional.

How contact form data is processed

The contact form is processed by Formspree, a third-party form service. When you submit the form, your information is transmitted to Formspree's servers, stored in their system, and forwarded by email to info@barbaraloera.com.

Formspree acts as a data processor for these submissions. Their handling of your data is governed by their own privacy policy, available at formspree.io/legal/privacy-policy.

Formspree applies automated spam filtering and Google reCAPTCHA to submissions. reCAPTCHA collects hardware and software information for the purpose of distinguishing humans from automated traffic, subject to Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

How your information is used

Information submitted through this site is used solely to:

• Respond to your inquiry
• Understand the scope of a potential project
• Maintain a record of business correspondence

Your information is not sold, rented, or shared with third parties for marketing purposes, and you will not be added to a mailing list without explicitly opting in.

Analytics

This site may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate visitor behavior — which pages are viewed, how visitors arrive, and which content is most useful. This data is aggregated and is not used to identify individuals.

You can opt out of analytics tracking using your browser's "Do Not Track" setting or an ad blocker.

Cookies

This site does not set its own tracking cookies. Third-party services described above (Formspree, Google reCAPTCHA, and analytics) may set cookies as part of their operation. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

Data retention

Form submissions are retained in Formspree's system according to their retention policy and in email correspondence for as long as needed for business purposes. You may request deletion of your information at any time.

Your rights

You may request to:

• Access the information held about you
• Correct inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your information
• Object to processing of your information

To make any of these requests, email info@barbaraloera.com. Requests are honored within 30 days.

External links

This site links to external websites, including client project sites and related businesses. This policy does not cover those sites, and you should review their privacy policies separately.

Children's privacy

This site is intended for a professional audience and is not directed at children under 13. No information is knowingly collected from children.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
