Privacy Policy

Effective Date:

Hyper Inkers Tattoo Studio is committed to protecting the privacy of our clients. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our studio, use our website hyperinkers.com, or interact with us regarding our tattoo services.

Information We Collect

We may collect personal information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect includes:

  • Personal Contact Information: Your name, phone number, and potentially email address when you book an appointment, contact us with inquiries, or use certain payment methods.
  • Identification Information: Information from your valid, government-issued photo ID (such as name, date of birth, photo) which we view solely for the purpose of age verification as required by law to ensure you are 18 years of age or older. We typically do not store copies of your ID after verification unless legally required for specific record-keeping purposes
  • Appointment Information: Details about your scheduled appointments, including date, time, and the nature of the service requested.
  • Payment Information: Information necessary to process deposits and final payments. This may include identifiers associated with Zelle, Cash App, or PayPal. If you pay by card, your card information is processed directly by our third-party payment processor; we do not store your full credit card number on our systems. We only receive confirmation of payment and potentially the last four digits of your card for verification.
  • Communication Records: Records of communications between you and the Studio, such as phone call logs regarding rescheduling or emails regarding inquiries.

How We Use Your Information

  • Schedule, confirm, and manage your appointments.
  • Process deposits and payments for Services.
  • Verify your age to comply with legal requirements.
  • Communicate with you regarding your appointments (reminders, rescheduling, follow-ups).
  • Respond to your inquiries and provide customer support.
  • Ensure your safety and assess eligibility for tattoo services based on disclosed information (e.g., influence, pregnancy).
  • Maintain internal records for operational and financial purposes.
  • Prevent fraudulent transactions and monitor against theft.
  • Comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

How We Collect Information

We collect information about you through various means:

Directly from You when you provide it to us during booking (online, phone, in-person), fill out consent forms, make payments, or communicate with us directly.

Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations:

  • Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your information with third parties that perform services for us or on our behalf, including payment processing (e.g., Cash App, Zelle, PayPal, our credit card processor).
  • By Law or to Protect Rights: If we believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of our policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation.
  • Studio Staff: Your information may be accessible to authorized studio staff (e.g., artists, front desk personnel) on a need-to-know basis to perform their job functions related to your appointment and service.

Data Retention

We will retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, such as managing your appointments, maintaining financial records for tax purposes, or as required to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Age verification data (details from ID) is generally not retained beyond the point of verification unless specifically required by law.

Security of Your Information

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse. Any information disclosed online is vulnerable to interception and misuse by unauthorized parties.

If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under age 13 without verification of parental consent, or provided services to someone under 18, we will take steps to delete that information as quickly as possible.
