Privacy policy.

Who we are

Same Brain Creative is a marketing and web development studio based in Maine, USA. This policy covers samebraincreative.com and the ways you can contact us from it. Questions about it can be sent to info@samebraincreative.com.

What we collect

Information you give us: when you use the contact form or email us, we receive your name, email address, company or organization, and whatever you write to us. When you book a consultation, Google Calendar collects the details you enter there under its own privacy policy.

Information collected automatically: like most websites we use analytics (Google Analytics 4) to understand which pages are visited, how visitors arrive and what devices they use. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally. Our hosting provider also keeps standard server logs (IP address, browser, pages requested) for security and troubleshooting.

How we use it

To reply to you and, if we work together, to run the project. To understand how the website is used and improve it. To keep the site secure. We do not sell your information, and we do not send marketing email unless you ask us to.

Cookies

The site uses a small number of cookies: those required for it to function, and analytics cookies set by Google Analytics, which we load through Google Tag Manager. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site will still work.

Analytics is on by default, which is the usual practice in the United States, and you can switch it off. The notice on your first visit has a decline option, and “Cookie preferences” at the foot of any page brings it back if you change your mind. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal we treat that as a decline and do not ask. Your choice is kept in your browser's local storage rather than in a cookie, so clearing site data resets it. We never enable advertising or personalisation storage.

Third-party services

We rely on a few outside services, each with its own privacy policy: Google Tag Manager (which loads the analytics below), Google Analytics (usage analytics), Google Calendar (scheduling), our hosting provider, and embedded links to LinkedIn. Portfolio links go to marie.samebraincreative.com and chris.samebraincreative.com, which may use their own analytics.

Your choices and rights

You can ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it — email info@samebraincreative.com and we will respond within 30 days. If you are in a jurisdiction with specific privacy rights (for example the EU/UK, California or other US states with privacy laws), those rights apply and we will honor them.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle information we will update this page and the date at the top. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
