Privacy Policy
Kvarter (KVARTER) is a small design studio selling printable city-map art. This site, kvarterstudio.com, is a static portfolio — it has no accounts, no logins, no advertising, and no third-party tracking. We keep the data we touch to a minimum.
What we collect on this site
Nothing you actively give us — there are no forms, sign-ups, or comment fields. Like any website, our host (Cloudflare Pages) processes standard technical request data such as IP address and browser type to serve pages and guard against abuse. We do not combine that into profiles or sell it.
Our own visit counter
We count page views and clicks on the links that leave this site, so we know which posters people look at and whether a Pinterest post was worth making. It runs on our own server (t.kvarterstudio.com) and shares nothing with anyone else. It is not Google Analytics or any advertising product.
Each event records the page you were on, the link you clicked, where you arrived from, and the country your request came from. It sets no cookies, stores no IP address, and cannot follow you to other websites. To connect a visit to a click we hold a random number in your browser's per-tab storage; it contains nothing about you and is discarded the moment you close the tab.
The same counter runs on the download pages we give buyers (dl.kvarterstudio.com), where it records which colorway, shape, and file format were downloaded — so we know which formats are worth producing. It records the city, never the private link that gets you to your files, and nothing that identifies you or your order.
Prefer not to be counted? Open kvarterstudio.com/?dnt=1 once and this browser is excluded from then on.
Buying a print
Purchases happen on Etsy, not here — the “Shop on Etsy” links take you to our Etsy shop. When you order, Etsy is the data controller for your name, address, and payment details under its own privacy policy; we only ever see what Etsy shows a seller (order and delivery information) to fulfil and support your order.
If you write to hello@kvarterstudio.com we use your message and address solely to reply and keep a record of the correspondence. We don't add you to a mailing list.
Social media
We run accounts on Instagram and Pinterest. If you interact with us there, that activity is governed by those platforms' own privacy policies. Our Pinterest integration only publishes our own posters to our own Pinterest account — it does not collect data about anyone who views or saves a Pin.
Your rights
For anything handled by Etsy (orders, payments), use the privacy controls in your Etsy account or contact Etsy. For the little we hold directly — an email you sent us — write to hello@kvarterstudio.com to ask for a copy or its deletion.
Changes
We'll update this page if our practices change, and revise the date below.
