Lourds Lane ("we," "us," or "our") operates lourdslane.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your information.

The message content you submit
Information collected automatically.
Like most websites, the Site may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, and referring URLs. This is typically collected through standard web hosting logs and, if enabled, analytics tools (see Section 4).
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information (such as health, financial account, or government ID information) through this Site.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
Respond to inquiries submitted through the contact form
Route and prioritize inquiries appropriately (e.g., distinguishing press inquiries from booking inquiries)
Maintain and improve the Site's performance and content
Communicate with you about opportunities, events, or updates you've expressed interest in
Comply with legal obligations, where applicable
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
3. How We Share Your Information
We do not share your personal information except in the following circumstances:
Service providers. We may use third-party tools to operate the Site (for example, website hosting, form processing, or email delivery services). These providers only access information as needed to perform their function and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.
Legal requirements. We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
Business changes. If all or part of our business is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, or sale of assets, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
4. Cookies and Analytics
Like many websites, the Site may use cookies and similar technologies to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve the experience over time. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; however, doing so may affect certain features of the Site.
If we use third-party analytics tools (such as Google Analytics), those providers may collect information about your use of the Site over time and across other websites, subject to their own privacy policies.
Embedded content, such as YouTube videos, may also collect information in accordance with the privacy policies of those third-party providers.
5. Data Retention
We retain the information submitted through the contact form for as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry and for legitimate business purposes, such as maintaining records of professional engagements, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
6. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:
Request access to the personal information we hold about you
Request correction or deletion of your personal information
Object to or restrict certain processing of your information
Withdraw consent, where processing is based on consent
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the information below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law.
Residents of California, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions with specific privacy laws (such as the CCPA/CPRA or GDPR) may have additional rights under those laws. We aim to honor applicable rights requests regardless of where you are located.
7. Children's Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
