Overview
Lost Story Studios is an informational and creative studio website. The current site does not provide accounts, login, ecommerce, payments, advertising pixels, or embedded third-party media in the project code. It does include a newsletter signup provided through Kit and may use Cloudflare Web Analytics when that beacon is active on the live site.
Information You Provide
If you use the Contact page, the form asks for your name, email address, subject, and message. The form also includes a hidden anti-spam field. Please avoid sending sensitive information unless it is necessary for your inquiry.
If you use a newsletter signup form, the email address and any other information submitted through that form are sent to Kit so the subscription can be created and managed.
Contact Form Processing
Contact-form submissions are sent to the site's contact endpoint and, if accepted, delivered by email using Cloudflare Email Sending. The submission may be used to read, route, and respond to your inquiry.
Security Verification
The Contact page uses Cloudflare Turnstile to help distinguish legitimate visitors from automated abuse. When the form is submitted, the site sends the Turnstile response token, and where available the visitor IP address supplied by Cloudflare, to Cloudflare for verification.
Technical Information
Like most websites, hosting and security systems may process standard technical information such as IP address, browser details, requested pages, timestamps, and similar request data.
When Cloudflare Web Analytics is active on the live site, Cloudflare may process basic technical and usage information such as page views, referrers, device or browser details, and approximate request information to provide aggregate site analytics.
Cookies And Storage
The current site code does not set first-party cookies, localStorage, or sessionStorage for analytics, advertising, or personalization. Kit, Cloudflare Turnstile, and Cloudflare Web Analytics may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies depending on their service implementation, browser, and session state. See the Cookie Policy for more detail.
How Information Is Used
- To receive, review, and respond to messages sent through the Contact page.
- To create and manage newsletter subscriptions submitted through Kit-powered forms.
- To protect the site from spam, abuse, and automated submissions.
- To understand aggregate website traffic and basic page usage when Cloudflare Web Analytics is active.
- To maintain, troubleshoot, and secure the website.
- To preserve records where reasonably needed for administrative, security, or legal purposes.
Service Providers
The implementation currently includes Kit for newsletter signup, Cloudflare Turnstile for bot protection, Cloudflare Email Sending for contact email delivery, and Cloudflare Web Analytics when the analytics beacon is active on the live site. These providers may process information as needed to provide those services.
Retention
Contact messages may be retained for as long as reasonably needed to respond to the inquiry, maintain business records, protect the site, or meet applicable obligations. Exact retention periods may depend on the nature of the message and the systems used to receive it.
Security
Reasonable technical and organizational measures are used to protect the website and contact-form handling. No website or email system can guarantee perfect security, so visitors should use care when deciding what information to submit.
External Links
If this website links to another website or service, that third party is responsible for its own privacy practices. Review the other site's policy before providing information there.
Children's Privacy
This website is not designed to collect personal information from children. Children should use the Contact page only with permission and assistance from a parent or guardian.
Your Choices
You can choose not to submit the Contact form. You may also control cookies and similar browser technologies through your browser settings, though blocking security tools may prevent the Contact form from working correctly.
Privacy Inquiries
Privacy inquiries may be submitted through our Contact page or by emailing contact@loststorystudios.com.
Changes
This policy may be updated as the website changes. The updated date above will be revised when material changes are made.
