This Privacy Policy describes how DVLP Studio LLC ("DVLP Studio," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information about you when you use our website (dvlpstudio.com) and our products, including Legal Intelligence and PM Intelligence (collectively, the "Services").
By using our Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. We do not use your information in ways inconsistent with this policy.

- Account information — for product users, we collect login credentials, profile information, and preferences.
- Customer data — for Legal Intelligence and PM Intelligence users, we process the documents, queries, and content you upload or submit to the products. This data is governed by your separate Customer Agreement and Data Processing Agreement, not this Privacy Policy.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use customer data submitted to our products to train AI models, ours or any third party's.
4. When we share information
We share information only in the following limited circumstances:
- With service providers who help us operate our Services (hosting, payment processing, customer support tools). These providers are bound by confidentiality obligations and may only use information as necessary to perform their services.
- For legal reasons — if required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, the safety of others, or comply with legal obligations.
- In a business transaction — if DVLP Studio is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction. Affected users will be notified.
- With your consent — we may share information for any other purpose with your explicit consent.
5. Cookies and tracking technologies
We use a minimal set of cookies and similar technologies to operate our website and Services:
- Essential cookies — required for the Services to function (authentication, session management, security).
- Analytics cookies — to understand how visitors use our website. We use privacy-friendly analytics that do not track individuals across sites.
- No third-party advertising trackers. We do not embed Facebook pixels, Google Ads remarketing, or similar third-party tracking technologies.
You can configure your browser to refuse cookies. Note that some Services may not function correctly without essential cookies.
6. Data retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to provide our Services and fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy.
- Contact form submissions: 24 months from submission, then deleted.

9. GDPR and CCPA specifics
For EU/UK residents (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have additional rights under the General Data Protection Regulation, including the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. The legal basis for our processing is typically performance of a contract (for customers) or legitimate interest (for marketing).
For California residents (CCPA/CPRA)
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to request deletion, and the right to opt out of the "sale" of personal information. We do not sell personal information as that term is defined under the CCPA.
