At S.A.D Entertainment, we respect your privacy. This policy outlines how we handle personal information gathered through our website (sadentertainment.com), our advertising campaigns, and our scheduling tools in compliance with Alberta’s Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) and Canadian federal regulations (PIPEDA).

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the basic information necessary to provide you with recording, mixing, mastering, or production services. This includes information gathered via our website, ads, mailing list sign-ups, and user-submitted forms:

  • Contact & Booking Information: Name, email address, phone number, and any project notes you provide when you fill out a contact form, register for our mailing list, or lock in a session via our Squarespace scheduling calendar.

  • Ad and Marketing Interactions: Data you voluntarily submit if you fill out a lead form directly on our social media advertisements (such as Meta/Instagram ads).

  • Usage Data: IP addresses, browser types, and user activity collected automatically via the Meta Pixel to analyze website traffic and measure the performance of our local marketing campaigns.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data strictly to:

  • Schedule, manage, and communicate with you regarding your studio bookings and production projects.

  • Send you studio updates, news, or promotional offers if you have actively joined our mailing list.

  • Deliver relevant advertising and optimize our marketing outreach locally within the Calgary creative community.

3. Sharing and Disclosure

We never sell, rent, or trade your personal data to outside companies for marketing purposes. Your information is only shared with trusted third-party software service providers (such as Squarespace, our email marketing platforms, and Meta) exclusively to process your bookings, manage our email lists, and measure ad performance.

4. Data Security & Retention

We employ standard digital and administrative safeguards to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, loss, or theft. We retain your information only as long as necessary to fulfill your booked studio requests, manage your active subscription to our mailing list, or to meet legal tax and accounting requirements.

5. Cookies and Tracking

Our website uses cookies and pixel tracking technology (specifically the Meta Pixel) to improve your browsing experience and serve relevant ads. You can manage or disable cookie tracking directly inside your individual web browser settings.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, request corrections, unsubscribe from our mailing list at any time, or request that your data be entirely deleted from our systems.

If you have any questions or wish to make a request regarding your data, please contact our privacy representative at: info@sadentertainment.com
