This policy explains what information Coleraine Design, LLC collects through colerainedesign.com, why we collect it, and what we do with it. We’ve tried to keep it short and in plain English. If anything here is unclear, just ask us.
Who we are
Coleraine Design, LLC is a web design studio in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania. When this policy says “we”, “us” or “our”, it means us. You can reach us at seamuscummins@colerainedesign.com or (484) 452-4232.
What we collect
When you start a project with us. Our Start a project form asks about your organization and what you need: the services you’re interested in, your organization’s name, website, industry and location, where you’re starting from, your timing, and anything you’d like to tell us. It also asks for your name and email address, and, if you choose to give them, your role, phone number and how you heard about us.
When you contact us directly. If you email or call us, we’ll have whatever you choose to share, such as your name, email address, phone number and the details of your project.
When you visit the site. Like almost every website, our hosting provider and security software keep standard server logs. These can include your IP address, browser type, the pages you visited and when. They’re used to keep the site running, secure and free of abuse.
How we use it
We use the information you give us to:
- read and reply to your enquiry, and prepare a proposal if you’d like one;
- work with you if you become a client;
- keep our own business records;
- protect the site and the form from spam and abuse.
We don’t sell your information, and we don’t share it with anyone for their own marketing.
How the project form works
When you send the form, it’s saved privately in our website’s dashboard and emailed to us. Only we can see it.
To keep spam out, the form also:
- Checks your general location. Your IP address is used at the moment you send the form to look up the country it comes from. We keep the country with your enquiry. We don’t keep your IP address.
- Limits repeat submissions. A scrambled, one-way version of your IP address is kept for one hour to stop the form being flooded. It can’t be turned back into your IP address, and it’s deleted automatically.
- Looks for signs of automated spam. For example, forms filled in impossibly fast. This doesn’t involve storing anything about you.
Cookies
Our website doesn’t use advertising or tracking cookies. WordPress, the system our site runs on, sets cookies only for people who log in to manage the site. Our fonts and images are served from our own website, not from third parties.
Who else is involved
We use a small number of trusted services to run the site and our business:
- DreamHost, who host our website and its data in the United States.
- Our email provider, which delivers enquiries to us.
- Security tools that protect the site from attacks and keep logs of suspicious activity.
These providers only handle your information to provide their service to us.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiries for as long as we need them to respond to you and for our business records. If you become a client, we keep project correspondence for as long as we work together and for a reasonable time afterwards. You can ask us to delete your information at any time, and we will unless we have to keep it for legal or accounting reasons.
Your choices
You can ask us to:
- tell you what information we hold about you;
- correct anything that’s wrong;
- delete your information;
- stop contacting you.
Just email seamuscummins@colerainedesign.com and we’ll take care of it. We won’t charge you, and we’ll reply promptly.
Children
Our website and services are meant for businesses and organizations. We don’t knowingly collect information from children under 13.
Links to other websites
Our site links to websites we’ve built for our clients and to other sites. Their privacy practices are their own, so it’s worth reading their policies too.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle information, we’ll update this page and the date at the top.
