Who I am
Uzir Design is the trading name of Nick Lurman, a graphic designer based in Eden Terrace, Auckland, New Zealand. This policy explains how I handle personal information collected through uzirdesign.com, in line with the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020.
What I collect
When you use the contact form, I collect the details you choose to give me: your name, email address, project type, budget range and message.
Like most websites, the server that hosts this site (Bluehost) automatically records basic technical information such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you visit. This is used for security and to keep the site running.
Why I collect it
I use your details only to reply to your enquiry, talk about your project and, if we work together, to provide my services and send invoices. I won’t add you to a mailing list or sell or share your information for marketing.
Third-party services
This site loads one font from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google’s servers. The contact form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to check you’re a human and stop spam. These providers may process your IP address under their own privacy policies.
Some services I use store data outside New Zealand, including in the United States. I only use reputable providers that protect personal information to a standard comparable to the Privacy Act.
Cookies
This site doesn’t use advertising or tracking cookies. The spam check on the contact form may set a short-lived technical cookie that’s needed for it to work.
How long I keep it
I keep enquiry emails for as long as they’re useful for our conversation or project, and project records for as long as required for tax and accounting purposes. After that, I delete them.
Keeping it safe
I take reasonable steps to protect your information, including a secure HTTPS connection and access-controlled email and storage.
Your rights
You can ask to see the personal information I hold about you, and ask me to correct or delete it. Just send a request through the contact form and I’ll respond within 20 working days, as required by the Privacy Act.
If you’re not happy with how I’ve handled your information, you can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.
Changes
I may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page.
