This policy explains how personal information is handled when you visit Stephanie Herela's website or send a collaboration enquiry.
Who is responsible for your data
Stephanie Herela, based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is responsible for the personal information collected through this website. For privacy questions or requests, contact hello@stephanieherela.com.
Information collected
When you submit the enquiry form, we collect the name, email address, brand or company name (if provided), and project details that you choose to share. We also receive limited technical information needed to operate and protect the website, such as IP address and browser information in server logs.
How information is used
Your enquiry information is used to respond to your request, discuss a potential collaboration, and manage related business communications. It is not sold or rented, and we do not use it for unrelated marketing without your permission.
Where information is stored
Enquiries and Studio content are stored using service providers that help run this website, including Vercel (hosting and media storage) and Neon (database hosting). These providers may process data in locations outside the UAE. Access is limited to Stephanie and authorised people helping operate the site.
How long information is kept
We keep enquiry information only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the enquiry, manage a potential or ongoing collaboration, meet legal obligations, or resolve a dispute. You may ask us to delete it sooner, subject to any legal retention requirement.
Your choices and rights
You can ask to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, or object to certain processing. To make a request, email hello@stephanieherela.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when the website or its data practices change. The latest version will always be available on this page with its updated date.
This privacy policy is a practical website notice and not legal advice. If the business expands, uses advertising analytics, or handles more sensitive data, it should be reviewed by a qualified UAE privacy lawyer.
