Privacy Policy

Forge Web Studio ("Forge," "we," "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it when you use forgesitedesign.com or engage our services.

When you submit a project brief or create an account, we collect your name, email address, and business name. When you make a payment, your billing information is collected and processed directly by Stripe — we do not store card numbers or financial data on our servers.

We may also collect standard web analytics data such as page views and browser type through Google Analytics, which is used solely to understand how visitors use our site.

We use the information you provide to communicate about your project, deliver the agreed services, send project status updates, and process payments. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

By submitting a project brief, you consent to receive transactional emails related to your project — including confirmation, status updates, and payment receipts. You may opt out of non-essential communications at any time by replying to any email with "unsubscribe" or by contacting us directly.

We use the following third-party services to operate our business:

• —Stripe — payment processing
• —Google Analytics — website analytics
• —Resend — transactional email delivery

Each of these services has their own privacy policy governing how they handle data.

We retain your project information for as long as necessary to fulfill services and comply with legal obligations. You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us at info@forgesitedesign.com.

We take reasonable precautions to protect your information. All payment data is handled by Stripe, which is PCI-DSS compliant. Our platform uses HTTPS encryption for all data in transit.

You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal information. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@forgesitedesign.com.

We may update this policy periodically. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of any revised policy.
