Introduction
This privacy statement tells you everything about how your personal data is collected and how le Bump Studio handles it. It explains where your data is stored and for what purpose it is used. You will also find your rights with regard to your data.
le Bump Studio
le Bump Studio creates a unique work of art of your (pregnant) body in the form of customised art. There are several situations in which your data is collected by le Bump Studio. We use your personal data for the following purposes:
1. Contacting you. Your data is collected when you contact le Bump Studio via a form on our website, such as our contact form or booking form. These forms only ask for the details necessary to book an appointment or buy a le Bump product — such as your name, email address and phone number. Each form on our website states what the data will be used for and links to this privacy statement.
2. Manufacturing and sending the products. To create the artwork, we make a photo scan of your (pregnant) body — a digital 3D representation of your body. This photo scan is carefully and securely stored. We also use your address details to send you the artwork. Your digital file is not used in any other way, unless you have given permission.
3. Technical and functional management of the website. Our website collects data to improve the website and to measure the performance of our marketing, including the duration of your visit, the pages you visit, and — where you have given consent via our cookie banner — data used for advertising and remarketing.
4. Scheduling appointments. Appointments at our fixed studio locations are booked directly via a form on our website (see point 1 above). For pop-up events, appointments are scheduled via Kaola; see “Third parties” below.
Provision (and processing) of the data mentioned under 1 and 2 is a necessary condition to enable our services to you.
Third parties
le Bump Studio shares personal data with the following categories of third parties, where necessary to provide our services and marketing. We do not sell your data.
- Meta (Facebook/Instagram) — for advertising, retargeting and conversion measurement via the Meta Pixel.
- Google (Google Ads/Analytics) — for website statistics and ad performance measurement.
- Mailchimp — for automated emails you receive after making a booking (e.g. confirmation and follow-up emails related to your appointment).
- Kaola — for scheduling appointments at pop-up events only. Bookings at our fixed studio locations are handled directly via a form on our website, not through a third party.
- Our website hosting provider.
- Where necessary: our accountant and payment provider, solely for invoicing and payment.
We conclude a data processing agreement with companies that process data on our behalf, to ensure the same level of security and confidentiality as le Bump applies itself. le Bump Studio remains responsible for this processing.
Some of these parties (including Meta and Google) are based outside the EU/UK, for example in the United States. In these cases we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
Storage period
Your data is stored by le Bump Studio for five years. After this period, le Bump again needs your explicit consent to keep your data for another five years.
- Contacting you. From the moment you contact le Bump Studio, the data you send — such as your name, telephone number and email address — is stored on our mail server for a period of five years.
- Analytics. The data collected via analytics tools on the website is anonymous, i.e. not linked to your name, company or email address. This data is deleted after five years.
- Creating the photo scan. The file we keep of you is anonymised and not traceable to you based on your name, phone number or email address. Your digital file is kept — if you have given your consent — for a period of five years, free of charge. This way, in case of damage or loss, there is always the possibility to order a new copy. If you do not give consent, the file is destroyed within two months of the artwork being sent.
Security
le Bump Studio uses technical and organisational security measures to protect personal data against (unintentional) destruction, loss, modification, unauthorised disclosure or access. le Bump Studio protects personal data in a manner that may reasonably be expected of it. The personal data managed by le Bump Studio can only be accessed via a secure system.
Your rights
Right of access. You have the right to request access to the data recorded and stored about you at le Bump Studio at any time, by emailing or calling us.
Right to erasure, restriction of processing, or objection. You have the right to have your data erased, or to restrict or object to its processing.
Right to data portability. You have the right to receive the personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used format.
Complaint handling. Please contact us first if you have a complaint, at love@lebumpstudio.com.
- EU: if you live in the EU, you may lodge a complaint with the data protection authority in your own country of residence — for example the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl), the Belgian Data Protection Authority (APD/GBA), the German Federal Commissioner for Data Protection (BfDI), or the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD).
- United Kingdom: you may lodge a complaint with the ICO (ico.org.uk).
- United States (including Brooklyn): there is no federal privacy law equivalent to the GDPR, but we apply the same privacy principles across all our locations worldwide.
A request regarding the above rights can be sent to le Bump Studio by emailing Semra Gökce at love@lebumpstudio.com. We aim to respond within one month; depending on the complexity of the request, this period may be extended by two months.
