Welcome to Classic Ink Tattoo. Your privacy is critically important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website (www.classicink712.com), book a consultation, or engage with our services.

By using our website or services, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

We collect two types of information:

A. Non-Personal Information

Like most websites, Classic Ink Tattoo automatically collects non-personally identifying information to enhance user experience and website performance. This may include:

  • Browser type, language preference, and referring website

  • Device type, operating system, and screen resolution

  • General location (city, state, or country) based on IP address

  • Pages visited, time spent on each page, and navigation patterns

  • Click and scroll behavior, including interactions with buttons and forms

  • Referral sources (Google, social media, direct visits, ads, etc.)

  • Bounce rate, exit pages, and session duration

2B. Third-Party Tracking (Google Analytics & Facebook Pixel)

We use Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel to collect and analyze this data. These tools help us understand:

  • How visitors engage with our website

  • Which pages perform best and where improvements are needed

  • The effectiveness of marketing campaigns and advertisements

Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel may place cookies on your device to track anonymous website activity. You can opt-out of Google’s tracking through the Manage Ad Preferences and adjust ad preferences via Facebook Ad Settings.

This data is collected in an aggregated, anonymous manner and does not personally identify you.

We collect personal information when you:

  • Book a Consultation (Name, email, phone number, tattoo details).

  • Contact us via our website, phone, or in person.

  • Sign up for marketing updates (optional).

We do not store or process payment details—these are securely handled by third-party payment providers.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected to:

  • Process tattoo bookings and inquiries.

  • Send appointment confirmations and updates.

  • Improve our website and services.

  • Send promotional offers (if you opt-in).

We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties, except as required by law.

4. Security Measures

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Cookies & Tracking

Our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies allow us to:

  • Recognize repeat visitors.

You can adjust your browser settings to disable cookies, but some features of our website may not function properly.

6. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites (e.g., social media, payment processors). We are not responsible for their privacy policies or content, and we encourage you to review their policies before sharing personal information.
