Privacy Policy

Updated: DECEMBER 19th, 2020

Thanks for checking out Vocal Fry! This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) applies to your use of https://www.vocalfrystudios.com/ (the “Website”). By visiting our Website, you agree to be legally bound by this Policy.

Quickly, let us introduce ourselves: our legal name is VF Media Inc. but, in these Terms, we are called “Vocal Fry”, “we” or “us”. We refer to you (and anyone else using the Website) “you.”

Nice to meet you!

1. What is this Policy about?

This Policy covers how Vocal Fry collects and uses your personal information. It also explains how you can control that collection and use.

FYI - personal information is any information that can be used to identify you. It does not include data where the identity information has been removed (like anonymous data).

2. What information does Vocal Fry collect?

We collect the personal information you directly provide us when using the Website. This direct information includes information you submit to:

· Add yourself to our freelancer list;

· set up a consultation; or

· schedule a private workshop.

Like most websites, we sometimes collect analytics data, or use third party analytics tools, to help us improve our Website, understand how you use it, or understand how any of our promotional campaigns have worked. These tools automatically collect information sent by your browser or mobile device, including the pages you visit and other information that gives us a better picture. Do not worry though - we collect and use this information in aggregate form; this means you will be lumped in with so many folks that your identity and information cannot be singled out.

We use cookies (sorry, not the tasty kind) to help run the Website effectively. These cookies are small pieces of data that help remember preferences and understand how you might use different Website features. We use the following cookie types, and you can read more about them here: crumb, ss_cvr, ss_cvt, ss_cid, ss_cvisit, ss_cpvisit.

And rest assured - we use proper safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of all information collected through the Website.

3. How does Vocal Fry use this information?

Although it probably goes without saying, we use your information to provide the services that you ask for. For example, if you sign up for our Freelancer List, we will include your personal information on our Freelancer List (you give your contact information, we include it in the list).

We also use information about your use of the Website to help us improve it, including by monitoring anonymized metrics such as total number of visitors, traffic, and demographic patterns.

We use your contact information to get in touch with you and to send communications about critical elements of the Website. I mean, pals need to keep in touch, right? We will not send you marketing, promotional or special offer information unless you opt-in to such communications.

Finally, we use your information to monitor activity that we think is suspicious or potentially fraudulent, and to identify violations of this Policy or our Terms of Use.

4. Does Vocal Fry share this information?

We do not sell personal information to others.

Except as noted in this section, we will not share your information to third parties (that means anyone other than you or Vocal Fry) without your consent.

First, we share your information with third parties to provide this Website and any services you request (e.g. website service providers, etc.). Those third parties will only have access to your information for the purpose of the service you request. We require that third parties comply with this Privacy Policy, confidentiality terms, and any applicable laws.

Second, if we sell our business, any of the info which we have acquired about you may be included in the sale. We may also sell, assign, or otherwise transfer such information during corporate restructuring.

Last, we may share your information with the proper third parties if we think it is necessary to protect someone’s safety, comply with law, comply with court orders, or protect someone’s rights.

5. Your choices about your information

You can ask to view and correct your personal information by making a request to info@vocalfrystudios.com.

Permitting you opted-in, you can stop receiving promotional email communications from us by clicking on the “unsubscribe link” provided in such communications. We make every effort to promptly process all unsubscribe requests.

Please refer to your mobile device or browser’s technical information for instructions on how to delete and disable cookies, and other tracking/recording tools. Disabling cookies and/or other tracking tools will prevent Vocal Fry (or authorized third parties) from tracking your browser’s activities in relation to the Website. However, doing so may also disable some features available through the Website.

6. How long we keep your information

How long we keep the information absolutely depends on the type of information we are holding and the purpose we collected it. Legal obligations will also inform how long we will hold the information. But in general– we keep your personal information for as long as necessary to deliver the service you request. Then, we (safely) get rid of it.

7. Links to other websites and Websites

We are not responsible for websites or services linked to or from the Website, including the information or content contained therein. Your browsing and interaction on any third party website or Website, including those that have a link or advertisement on our website, are subject to that third party’s own rules and policies.

8. Changes

Vocal Fry may, in its sole discretion, modify or update this Policy from time to time; we will post the Policy as amended on the Website and will take reasonable steps to inform you of any amendments.
