Terms & Policies

Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. When Hitch Studio, Inc. (“Hitch Studio,” “we,” or “us”) collects information about you, this Privacy Policy describes how we collect it, how we use it, with whom we may share it, and what choices you have regarding it. This Privacy Policy applies to any Hitch Studio operated websites and mobile apps, which include the domains “themeetingspark.com” and “hitch.studio.”

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and is a part of the Terms of Use of our websites and mobile applications (collectively, the “Site”). By accessing and using any part of the Site, you agree that you have read and understand this Privacy Policy and that you accept and consent to the privacy practices (and any uses and disclosures of information about you) that are described in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy may change from time to time. Your continued use of the Site after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes. It is your responsibility to check the Privacy Policy periodically for updates as you continue to use the Site and enjoy Hitch Studio content. 

This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected at our Site. It does not apply to websites operated by other entities or individuals. We are not responsible for, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to, the privacy practices of those other websites, including any Hitch Studio affiliates and partners. We encourage you to seek out and read the privacy policy of each website that you visit.

We refer to this information as “Usage Data”.  This information allows us to optimize the Site to the Internet connections and equipment that are used to visit the Site. For instance, we may collect information on: (1) how long you use the Site; (2) which links you click on the Site; (3) whether you have used the Site before and on how many occasions; (4) how frequently you use the Site; and (5) at which point you exit the Site. We collect this information directly from you when you provide it to us and automatically as you navigate through and interact with our Site. Information collected this way includes details of your visits to our Site, including traffic data, location data, logs, other communication data, and the resources that you access and use on the Site.

OUR PROVIDERS

We use Providers to efficiently provide our Site to you. Some Providers, such as credit card processing companies, will collect information directly from you and provide us with relevant data. We may use this information to maintain our accounting records, carry out our obligations, or enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into (for instance, to collect any authorized fees). Information collected by Providers are governed by their privacy policies. You should view the privacy policies of Providers before providing information to them. If you interact with a third party, the Provider may have access to your Personal Information, even though we do not disclose your Personal Information for these purposes without your consent.

When corresponding with Hitch Studio or our representatives, or when making a request for information or otherwise interacting with us or others through the Site, you choose what information to supply, what questions or comments to submit, whether you wish to receive further information, and by what method of communication such information should be delivered. Please take care to share only such information as is needed or that you believe is appropriate. You are under no obligation to provide us with personally identifiable information, but without it we may not be able to provide you the products or services you request. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:  

•    Tracking Technologies: You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that many parts of the Site may then be inaccessible or will not function properly.
