Privacy Policy

Effective date: August, 2026

Alexis Lyons (“I,” “me,” or “my”) operates www.alexislyonsart.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information I collect through the Site, how I use it, and the choices available to you.

Information you provide

I may collect information that you voluntarily provide when you:

  • Submit the contact form, including your name, email address, inquiry type, and message.

  • Subscribe to Studio Notes or another mailing list, including your email address and, if requested, your name.

  • Communicate with me directly by email.

Please do not submit sensitive personal, financial, or medical information through the Site.

Information collected automatically

This Site is hosted by Squarespace. When you visit the Site, Squarespace may automatically collect information such as:

  • Your browser, device, and network information

  • Your IP address

  • The pages you visit

  • The website or page that referred you to the Site

  • Clicks, searches, scrolling, and timestamps

  • Information collected through cookies and similar technologies

This information is used to operate and secure the Site and to provide general information about Site traffic and activity. You can learn more about Squarespace’s practices in the Squarespace Privacy Policy.

How I use information

I may use the information collected through the Site to:

  • Respond to questions, professional inquiries, press requests, and other messages

  • Send Studio Notes and other updates to people who have subscribed

  • Maintain newsletter subscription and unsubscribe records

  • Understand how visitors use the Site

  • Improve the Site and its content

  • Protect the Site from spam, misuse, or security threats

  • Meet legal obligations or protect my legal rights

Where required by law, information is processed based on your consent, my legitimate interest in operating and improving the Site, or compliance with a legal obligation.

Email communications

If you subscribe to Studio Notes, I may send you news about artwork, exhibitions, studio activities, events, and occasional releases.

Mailchimp provides the mailing-list and email-campaign services used to manage subscribers and send these messages. Mailchimp processes subscriber information on my behalf according to its privacy terms.

Unsubscribing will remove you from future marketing emails, although I may retain a limited record of the request to ensure that your preference is honored.

Contact forms and storage

Information submitted through the Site’s forms is provided to Squarespace so that it can operate the forms, store submissions, prevent spam, and help me respond to inquiries.

Form submissions may also be delivered to and stored in my studio email account. I use this information only for the purposes described in this policy.

Submitting the contact form does not automatically subscribe you to Studio Notes unless you separately select an email-subscription option.

Cookies

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies. Some cookies are necessary for Squarespace to operate and securely display the Site. With your permission, analytics and performance cookies may also be used to understand Site traffic and activity.

You can accept, decline, or manage non-essential cookies through the Site’s cookie banner. You may also be able to control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of the Site function.

Sharing of information

I do not sell or rent personal information, and I do not use personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

I may share information with service providers that help operate the Site and mailing list, including Squarespace and the providers of my studio email account (Mailchimp). These providers process information according to their own privacy terms and the services they provide to me.

Information may also be disclosed when reasonably necessary to comply with the law, respond to a valid legal request, prevent fraud or misuse, protect safety, or defend legal rights.

Third-party websites

The Site may contain links to third-party websites, including Spouse-ly and Instagram. Purchases made through Spouse-ly and activity on Instagram are governed by those companies’ respective terms and privacy policies.

I do not control and am not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites.

Data retention

I retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to inquiries, maintaining appropriate business records, managing newsletter subscriptions, and meeting legal obligations.

Your choices and rights

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link provided in each email.

Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, or to object to or restrict certain uses. To make a request, contact me using the email address below. I may need to verify your identity before completing a request, and some information may be retained where permitted or required by law.

Children’s privacy

The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information through the Site, please contact me so that I can address the situation.

Security

I use reasonable measures and reputable service providers to protect information collected through the Site. However, no method of electronic storage or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

International visitors

Squarespace and other service providers may process or store information in the United States or other countries. Those locations may have data-protection laws that differ from the laws where you live.

Changes to this policy

I may update this Privacy Policy when the Site, its features, or applicable requirements change. The updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
