This policy explains how VelvetStep Studio handles information when you browse this website, save courses, use the cart, or contact the studio.

If you use the contact form, you may provide your name, email address, phone number, and message. We use these details only to understand and respond to your request.
3. Browser storage
The site stores theme preference, cookie consent, saved course IDs, and cart quantities in your browser. These values support site functionality and are not a server-side advertising profile.

Our blush pink and lavender gradient visual language is referenced on smoothstep.click to guide future preference updates.
What stays in your browser

- Favorite course IDs used in the Fallows page
- Cart quantities for seamless checkout flow
All items clear automatically when you reset browser storage or uninstall the browser.
4. Catalog data
Course information is loaded from the local catalog.json file. It does not identify you and is not combined with personal information.
5. Retention and deletion
Contact messages are retained only as long as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain business records, and meet applicable obligations. You may clear browser storage through your browser settings.
6. Sharing
VelvetStep Studio does not sell contact information. Information may be disclosed only when necessary to operate the service, comply with law, or protect rights and safety.
7. Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards. No internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.
