Privacy Policy

1. Our Website Is a Gateway

Laruenailstudio.com is a simple informational site. We do not have user accounts, contact forms, newsletter signups, or e-commerce on our website. The main function of the site is to direct you to our third-party booking platform, Boulevard, where appointments are scheduled.

2. Information We Collect

Directly from our website: We do not actively collect personal information through laruenailstudio.com. Our website host may automatically log basic technical data (such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited) for security and performance purposes. We do not use this data to identify individual visitors.

Through Boulevard (booking): When you click through to book an appointment, you are taken to Boulevard. Boulevard collects information directly from you, which may include:

• Name
• Phone number
• Email address
• Payment information
• Appointment history and preferences

This information is collected and stored by Boulevard under Boulevard’s own privacy policy, which we encourage you to review.

In the salon: When you visit us in person, we may keep service notes (e.g., preferred shape, allergies, color history) to provide better service on future visits.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information shared through Boulevard or in the salon to:

• Confirm, remind you of, or follow up on your appointments
• Provide and improve our services
• Apply our no-show policy (see our Terms of Service)
• Contact you if needed about a booking or service issue
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your information for third-party advertising.

4. Who We Share Information With

We only share your information with:

• Boulevard, our booking and payment platform, as needed to manage your appointments
• Service providers that help us run our business (e.g., payment processors), only as needed
• Authorities, if required by law (subpoena, court order, etc.)

5. Cookies and Tracking

Laruenailstudio.com may use basic cookies provided by our website host for functionality and performance. Boulevard’s booking site uses its own cookies and tracking technologies — see their privacy policy for details.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the limited information we hold. However, no method of online transmission or storage is 100% secure. Booking and payment data is protected by Boulevard’s security measures.

7. Children’s Privacy

Our services are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us so we can delete it.

8. Your Choices

You may:

• Ask what information we have about you
• Request that we update or delete your client record (note: booking data held by Boulevard may need to be requested separately through them)
• Opt out of appointment reminders by replying STOP to text reminders or asking us to remove you from our list

To make a request, contact us using the information on our website.

9. Out-of-State Visitors

Some U.S. states (such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, and Utah) and other jurisdictions (such as the EU under GDPR) grant residents additional rights regarding their personal information. If you are a resident of one of these places, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict use of your information. Contact us to make a request and we will respond as required by applicable law.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Effective Date” above will reflect the most recent revision.
