Introduction

Wangchen Tattoo respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.

By using this website or contacting Wangchen Tattoo, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

We may collect information when you:

• submit a contact or consultation form
• request a tattoo quote
• book an appointment or pay a deposit
• contact us by phone, email, Instagram, or other social media
• upload reference images for a tattoo consultation
• complete a consent form at your appointment

This information may include:

• your name, email address, and phone number
• tattoo ideas, project details, and reference images
• appointment preferences and communication history
• deposit and payment records

We may also collect non-personal website data, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and website usage statistics. This helps us improve the website’s performance and your experience on it.

Health & Consent Form Information

Before your tattoo, you will be asked to complete a consent form. It may include health information relevant to your safety, such as allergies, skin conditions, or medications. We use this information only to decide whether it is safe to proceed and to take the right precautions. It is never used for marketing and is never shared, except with medical professionals in an emergency or where required by law.

Identification

We check a valid government-issued photo ID to confirm that you are at least 18 years old, as required by New York law.

How We Use Your Information

Your information may be used to:

• respond to inquiries and provide tattoo quotes
• schedule consultations and appointments
• manage bookings, deposits, and payments
• send appointment reminders and important updates about your appointment
• keep records of completed work for aftercare and touch-up purposes
• improve website performance and customer experience
• meet legal and health and safety requirements

We use your information only for legitimate business purposes related to Wangchen Tattoo.

Reference Images & Design Information

Reference images, design concepts, and project information you submit are used only for consultation and tattoo planning. Submitting reference images does not transfer ownership of those images to Wangchen Tattoo.

Photography & Portfolio Use

Wangchen Tattoo may photograph completed tattoos for portfolio use, website galleries, social media content, and marketing materials.

Your identity will not be disclosed without your permission. If you do not want your tattoo photographed or shared, please tell Wangchen before your appointment. If a photo of your tattoo has already been published and you would like it removed, contact us and we will take it down from our website and social media accounts.

Information Sharing

Wangchen Tattoo does not sell, rent, or trade personal information. We may disclose information only:

• when required by law
• to service providers who help run the business, such as website hosting or payment processing, and only as much as they need
• to protect legal rights, health, or safety

Third-Party Services

This website may use Google Analytics, Google Maps, social media platforms, website hosting providers, and contact form software. These services may collect information according to their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.

Cookies

This website may use cookies to improve user experience, understand website traffic, and analyze visitor behavior. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, although some parts of the website may not work as intended.

Data Retention

We keep client records, including consent forms, only as long as needed for business, aftercare, and legal purposes. Enquiries that do not lead to a booking are deleted when they are no longer needed. When records are no longer required, they are securely deleted or destroyed.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect client information from unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure. However, no website or electronic communication system can guarantee complete security.

Children’s Privacy

Our services are only for people aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18.

Your Rights

You may request to:

• access the personal information we hold about you
• correct inaccurate information
• delete your information, where legally permissible
• stop receiving non-essential messages from us
