Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2026 · thethreefoldcollective.com
Introduction
The Threefold Collective ("we", "us", or "our") is a digital design studio based in the Philippines, serving clients locally and internationally. We are committed to protecting your personal information and handling it with transparency, care, and respect.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you visit our website or engage our services. By using our site or contacting us, you acknowledge the practices described here.
Applicable Law
This policy is governed primarily by the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its implementing rules and regulations. For clients and visitors located outside the Philippines, we also observe the relevant data protection principles of your jurisdiction — including, where applicable, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for those in the European Economic Area, and equivalent frameworks for other regions.
Where local laws grant stronger protections than those described here, we will endeavour to honour those standards.
Information We Collect
We collect only what is necessary to deliver our services and communicate with you effectively:
- Contact details — your name and email address when you submit an inquiry or reach out directly.
- Project information — details you share when briefing or commissioning a design project.
- Communications — records of correspondence via email or messaging platforms.
- Anonymised usage data — how visitors navigate our site, collected via analytics tools (no personal identifiers stored).
We do not collect sensitive personal information, payment card details, or data from minors under 18.
How We Use Your Information
Information is used solely to:
- Respond to inquiries and deliver agreed design services.
- Communicate project updates, revisions, and deliverables.
- Issue invoices and manage project administration.
- Improve our website and the quality of our work.
- Comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party — ever.
Cookies & Analytics
Our website may use cookies to enhance your browsing experience and help us understand how the site is used. You may disable cookies through your browser settings at any time, though some features may not function as intended.
We may use third-party analytics tools that collect anonymised, aggregated data about site traffic and user behaviour. This data cannot be used to personally identify you.
Third-Party Services
We may engage trusted third-party providers to support our operations — including hosting platforms, email services, and project management tools. These providers are required to handle data securely and in accordance with applicable privacy law.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites linked from our site. We encourage you to review their policies independently.
International Data Transfers
As an internationally active studio, information you provide may be processed or stored using platforms based in countries other than your own. Where such transfers occur, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data in accordance with applicable law.
Data Security & Retention
We take reasonable technical and organisational precautions to protect your information from unauthorised access, misuse, or disclosure. Data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable law.
When personal information is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or permanently anonymised.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal obligations.
- Object to or restrict certain types of processing.
- Data portability, where applicable under your local law.
- Withdraw consent at any time where processing is consent-based.
- Lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines at privacy.gov.ph, or with your local data protection authority if you are outside the Philippines.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us and we will respond promptly.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The most current version will always be available at thethreefoldcollective.com. Continued use of our website after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
