This policy explains what personal information Website Studio Limited collects through www.websitestudio.co.nz and when you work with us, why we collect it and what we do with it. We follow the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020.

Last updated: 6 November 2026.

1. What we collect

  • What you tell us through our contact form: your name, email, business, current website, what you need, your budget, when you'd like to start and any message you add.
  • What you send us by email or share with us during a project, such as contact details, brand assets and website logins.
  • Details needed for invoicing and running our business.
  • Information about how people use our website, such as pages visited, device type and approximate location.

2. Why we collect it

  • To reply to your enquiry and work out whether we're the right fit.
  • To deliver and support the work you've asked us to do.
  • To send invoices and keep the records we need to keep.
  • To understand how our website is used, so we can improve it.

We don't sell your personal information.

3. Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how people use our website. It uses cookies to do this. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and the website will still work.

4. Who we share it with

  • The services we use to run our business, such as Webflow, which hosts this website and receives form enquiries, and Google, which provides analytics.
  • Trusted contractors who help with your project, and only what they need to do that work.
  • Anyone we're required to share it with by law.

5. Where it's stored

Some of the services we use store information outside New Zealand, including in the United States. Their own privacy policies explain how they look after it.

6. How long we keep it

We keep personal information only for as long as we need it for the reasons above. Invoices and business records are kept for as long as tax law requires.

7. Keeping it safe

We take reasonable steps to protect your information, but no website or online service can be completely secure. If a privacy breach is likely to cause serious harm, we'll tell you and the Privacy Commissioner as the law requires.

8. Your rights

You can ask to see the personal information we hold about you and ask us to correct it. Email us and we'll respond within 20 working days.

If you're not happy with how we've handled your information, please talk to us first. You can also complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.

9. Other websites

Our website links to other sites, including client websites and social media. We're not responsible for how those sites handle your information.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page.
