Privacy Policy

 

Last Updated: October 2, 2026

​

Kinship Creative LLC (“Kinship Creative,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a creative studio based in Ventura, California. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, retain, and disclose information when you visit www.kinship-creative.com, contact us through the website, or subscribe to our email communications.
 

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

 

We collect information you choose to provide when you complete a contact form, subscribe to our newsletter, communicate with us, or use a website form to request a resource.

​

Depending on the form or communication, this may include your name, email address, phone number, business or website information, project details, and the contents of your messages.

​

Newsletter subscriptions are optional. Submitting a contact form does not automatically subscribe you to marketing emails. You must separately choose to subscribe, including through the optional subscription choice on our contact form.

We do not currently accept payments directly through this website. Project payments are handled separately through the payment services or methods arranged with clients.

​

Information Collected Automatically

 

Our website is hosted by Wix and has Google Analytics and the Meta Pixel enabled. These services may automatically collect technical and website-activity information through cookies, pixels, and similar technologies.

​

This information may include IP addresses, cookie or device identifiers, browser and device characteristics, approximate location, pages viewed, referring websites, and interactions with our website. The information collected depends on the service, its settings, and your browser or device choices. Technical identifiers and browsing information are not necessarily anonymous.

 

How We Use Information


We use information to:

  • Respond to inquiries and discuss potential projects.

  • Communicate with clients and manage our business relationships.

  • Provide requested resources and services.

  • Send newsletters and marketing emails to people who choose to subscribe.

  • Understand website traffic, evaluate marketing activity, and improve our website.

  • Operate and protect our website and business.

  • Maintain business records and address applicable legal obligations.
     

If you provide a phone number with an inquiry, we may call or text you to follow up about that inquiry or a related project. Providing a phone number does not automatically enroll you in recurring promotional text messages.

​

Service Providers and Information Disclosure
 

We use third-party services to host our website, manage communications, organize inquiries, and analyze website activity.
 

These include:

  • Wix: Website hosting, forms, contact management, email marketing, and website analytics, including reports about website traffic, visitor activity, referral sources, and traffic arriving from AI platforms.

  • Google: Gmail for email communications, Google Sheets for some inquiry and business records, and Google Analytics for website analytics.

  • ClickUp: Organizing inquiries, project details, and related business tasks.

  • Meta: Website-activity measurement through the Meta Pixel, which can support advertising measurement and audience creation.
     

Inquiries may be delivered to and accessed through our email, phone notifications, and the Wix app. We may copy relevant inquiry details into ClickUp or Google Sheets for follow-up and business management.

​

Within Kinship Creative, inquiry and client information is accessed by the owner. Third-party providers may process information as needed to operate their services, under their applicable agreements and policies.

​

We may also disclose information when required by law or when necessary to address legal claims, protect rights, or respond to security concerns.


Cookies, Analytics, and Meta Tracking
 

Cookies are small files stored on your device. Pixels and similar technologies can record website visits and interactions.

Our website uses Wix functionality and has the following tracking integrations enabled:
 

  • Google Analytics: Helps us understand website traffic and visitor activity. Google processes information under its applicable terms and privacy policies. See Google’s Privacy Policy. Google also offers an Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
     

  • Meta Pixel: May send website-activity information to Meta for measurement and advertising-related functionality. Meta may associate this activity with information it already holds, including account information where applicable, and use it under its own policies. See Meta’s Privacy Policy.
     

Third-party tracking services may collect information about activity over time and across different websites or services.

Our website does not currently display a cookie consent banner or provide an on-site cookie preferences panel. Optional tracking may therefore operate without a website-based opt-in choice.
 

You can use your browser settings to block or delete cookies and, where available, use Google or Meta account controls to manage relevant privacy and advertising preferences. These controls may not stop every form of data collection, and blocking cookies may affect website functionality.
 

Browser Privacy Signals

We have not verified whether our website and its connected analytics and advertising services respond to browser Do Not Track (DNT) or Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals. We therefore cannot assure visitors that enabling either signal will stop those services from collecting information.

​

Our website does not currently provide a cookie consent banner. Visitors can manage cookies through their browser settings and use the provider controls described above, although these choices may not prevent every form of data collection.

​

Email Preferences and Privacy Requests

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe link included in those emails. Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent us from responding to your inquiries or sending communications necessary for an ongoing client relationship.

To ask about your information or request access, correction, or deletion, email kari@kinship-creative.com. We will review requests in light of the information we hold and applicable requirements. We may need to verify your identity before responding, and some records may need to be retained for legal or business-record purposes.
 

These contact options do not replace browser or provider controls for information held independently by Google, Meta, or other services.
 

The Site may use:

  • Essential cookies: Necessary for security, website operation, forms, and core functionality.

  • Functional cookies: Remember selections and improve website features.

  • Analytics cookies: Help us understand website traffic, visitor behavior, and Site performance.

  • Marketing cookies: May be used to measure campaigns or deliver more relevant advertising if those tools are enabled.


The specific cookies used may change as we update the Site or enable new features. You can review and manage available cookie choices through the cookie banner or cookie preference center displayed on the Site. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of the Site function. The Site uses Google Analytics to measure and report website traffic and visitor interactions. Google Analytics may collect information such as session activity, approximate location, browser information, device information, and cookie identifiers.

To learn more about how Google processes information, review Google’s Privacy Policy. You may also use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:
The following links explain how to access cookie settings in various browsers:

​

Online Tracking and Do Not Track Signals
 

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” or “DNT” setting. Because there is not currently a uniform industry standard for responding to legacy DNT signals, the Site does not respond to all DNT signals automatically.
 

Instead, visitors can manage nonessential cookies through the Site’s cookie preference center. If we use technologies subject to a legally recognized universal opt-out signal, we will respond to that signal as required by applicable law and supported by our technology.
 

Third-party analytics or marketing providers may collect information about your activity on the Site. If marketing technologies are enabled, those providers may also collect information about activity over time and across other websites or and across other services. Your cookie preferences may limit this collection.

​

Information Retention

We do not currently follow a fixed routine deletion schedule for inquiries, client communications, or contact records. Unless deleted, those records may remain in our business systems indefinitely.

​

Unsubscribing stops marketing emails but does not necessarily delete your contact record or earlier communications. Third-party services may retain information according to their own settings, agreements, and policies.


Information Security

We rely on the account protections and security features of the services we use to store and process information. No method of internet transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed completely secure.

​

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy when our website tools or business practices change. We will post the revised policy on this page and update its effective date. Material changes will be identified through a notice on this page.
