Effective Date: April 2026
At Dallas Design Co., we value strategy, transparency, and integrity. This extends to how we handle your data. We aren’t in the business of selling information; we’re in the business of building brands. This policy outlines what we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it.
1. Who We Are
Our website address is: https://dallasdesignco.com. Dallas Design Co. is a strategic branding and design studio based in Dallas, Texas.
2. Personal Data We Collect
We only collect data that is necessary to provide you with a high-end service or to improve your experience on our site.
Contact Forms
When you reach out via our contact forms, we collect your name, email address, and any project details you provide. This data is used solely to respond to your inquiry and discuss potential partnerships.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection. An anonymized hash created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it (their privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/).
Media
If you upload images to the website (e.g., in a support ticket or portal), you should avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS).
3. Cookies & Tracking
We use cookies to streamline your experience and analyze our site’s performance.
- Functional Cookies: If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your details for convenience. These last for one year.
- Authentication: If you visit our login page (for client portals), a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This contains no personal data.
- Analytics: We use modern, privacy-focused analytics to understand how users interact with our site. This helps us optimize our “Strategy before aesthetics” approach.
4. Embedded Content
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, maps, or social feeds). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor has visited the other website. These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction.
5. Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell your data. We only share information with trusted third-party services necessary for our operations (e.g., spam detection services, hosting providers, or CRM tools like TickTick/Notion for project management). If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
6. How Long We Retain Your Data
- Comments: Retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
- User Accounts: For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profiles.
- Contact Inquiries: We retain lead information for as long as necessary to fulfil the business request.
7. Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
8. Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Data may be processed on secure servers located in the United States and the United Kingdom.
