Scope of this policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Haux Studio (“Haux Studio”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) handles personal information when you visit haux.studio, send us an enquiry, or schedule a call. It does not cover a client project where a separate agreement or privacy notice applies.
By using the site, you acknowledge the practices described here. If you do not agree with them, please do not submit personal information through the site.
Information we collect
Information you provide
- Your name, email address, phone number, and company details.
- Project information, meeting notes, messages, files, and other details you choose to share with us.
- Booking information such as your preferred time, time zone, and answers to scheduling questions.
Information collected automatically
When you use the site, our hosting and security providers may process technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, referring page, pages requested, timestamps, and diagnostic or security logs. The site also uses session storage to remember whether you have already seen its introductory animation.
How we use information
- Respond to enquiries and understand a potential project.
- Schedule, manage, and follow up on meetings.
- Prepare proposals and take steps toward a client agreement.
- Provide and improve the site and our studio services.
- Protect the site, prevent abuse, and troubleshoot problems.
- Keep appropriate business, tax, and legal records.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.
Legal bases
Where a law requires us to identify a legal basis, we rely on one or more of the following: your consent, taking steps at your request before entering a contract, performing a contract, our legitimate interests in operating and protecting the studio, and compliance with a legal obligation.
You may withdraw consent at any time. This does not affect processing that already took place or processing supported by another lawful basis.
International transfers
We are based in Sri Lanka and some service providers process information in other countries. Those countries may have different privacy laws. Where required, we use contractual or other recognised safeguards for cross-border transfers and ask providers to protect information in line with applicable law.
How long we keep information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy. The period depends on the nature of the enquiry or client relationship, legal and accounting duties, dispute-resolution needs, and the retention schedules of our service providers. When information is no longer needed, we delete it or make it anonymous where reasonably possible.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask for access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of your personal information. You may also be able to object to or restrict certain processing, withdraw consent, and complain to a data protection authority.
To make a request, email us at hello@haux.studio. We may need to verify your identity before responding. Some rights are subject to legal exceptions, including records we must keep by law or need to establish or defend legal claims.
Security and children
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
This site is intended for business users and is not directed to children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the site. If you believe a child has provided information to us, please contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy as our services or legal obligations change. We will post the revised version here and change the date at the top. Material changes may also be communicated through an appropriate additional notice.
Questions or privacy requests can be sent to hello@haux.studio or to Haux Studio, Level 4, 128 Hill Street, Colombo 05, Sri Lanka.
