Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 11, 2026
The Meraki Collective keeps this simple: we collect as little as possible, we use it only to do good work and run this site well, and we never sell it. This page explains what we collect and why.
Who we are
This site, themerakicollective.studio, is operated by The Meraki Collective, LLC, a studio based in California, USA. If you have any questions about this policy, email us at [email protected].
What we collect
Information you give us
When you use our contact form or email us, we receive the details you choose to share — typically your name, email address, the topic you select, and your message. We use this solely to respond to you.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, we collect limited technical and usage data when you visit:
- Analytics — we use Google Analytics 4 to understand, in aggregate, how the site is used (pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type). IP addresses are anonymized by Google.
- Security & delivery — our host, Cloudflare, processes standard request data (such as IP address and browser information) to serve the site quickly and protect it from abuse.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies set by Google Analytics to measure site usage. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, or install Google's Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to opt out of analytics entirely.
How we use information
- To respond to your inquiries and correspond with you.
- To understand how the site is used so we can improve it.
- To keep the site secure, reliable, and fast.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it except with the service providers below who help us operate the site.
Service providers we rely on
A few trusted third parties process data on our behalf. Each has its own privacy policy:
- Formspree — delivers our contact-form submissions to us. (Privacy policy)
- Google Analytics — website analytics. (Privacy policy)
- Cloudflare — hosting, content delivery, and security. (Privacy policy)
Data retention
We keep inquiry emails for as long as needed to correspond with you and maintain our records, then delete them when no longer required. Analytics data is retained according to Google's standard retention settings.
Your choices
You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information you've shared with us — just email [email protected] and we'll take care of it. You can also opt out of analytics using the cookie controls described above.
Children's privacy
This site is intended for a professional audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16.
Changes to this policy
If we update this policy, we'll revise the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be reflected here before they take effect.
