Privacy Policy

Here’s what DIYvinci collects, why we collect it, and what happens to it across our website, community, memberships, creative tools, and related services.

​

Last updated: September 2026.

The Short Version

We collect the information we need to run DIYvinci, provide the things you ask for, keep our community and tools working, and improve what we offer.

​

We do not sell your personal information for money.

​

Some of the platforms that help us run DIYvinci process information on our behalf, including website hosting, payments, email, analytics, community, shipping, and technology providers.

​

  • IP address

  • Pages visited

  • Referring pages or websites

  • Approximate location derived from your IP address

  • Dates and times of visits

This information helps us operate the site, understand how people use DIYvinci, troubleshoot problems, improve our services, and maintain security.

How we collect information

We may collect information:

​

  • Directly from you when you create an account, make a purchase, join our community, subscribe to a membership or mailing list, participate in a course or event, use a tool, complete a form, or contact us.

DIYvinci community

DIYvinci operates an online community at community.diyvinci.com.

​

When you participate in the community, information you choose to make visible may be seen by other community members or visitors depending on the privacy settings of the space where you post.

​

This may include things such as:

  • Your display name

  • Profile information

  • Profile image

  • Posts and comments

  • Artwork or images you upload

  • Reactions and other community activity

​

The community may be powered or supported by third-party technology providers that process information as necessary to provide community functionality.

5

AI and creative tools

DIYvinci may use or provide features that involve artificial intelligence, machine learning, automation, or other creative technology.

​

AI may be used as an assistive tool in areas such as writing, editing, brainstorming, organization, visual development, accessibility, creative exploration, or interactive features.

​

When an AI-enabled feature requires information to be processed by a third-party technology provider, information entered into that feature may be transmitted to that provider to generate or process a response.

​

We aim to limit the information shared with these services to what is reasonably necessary for the feature to work.

​

Our creative principles and broader approach to AI are explained separately in our AI & Creative Tools Policy.

​

Where we state that user content is not used to train AI models, that statement applies to the tools, configurations, and providers for which DIYvinci has established that protection. We do not make promises about independent third-party services you choose to use outside DIYvinci.

6

Cookies and similar technologies

DIYvinci and the services we use may place cookies or similar technologies on your device.

​

These technologies may be used to:

​

  • Keep the website functioning properly.

  • Remember settings and preferences.

  • Keep users signed in.

  • Maintain security.

  • Understand website traffic and usage.

  • Measure performance.

  • Improve our services.

  • Support marketing or advertising where applicable.

 

Some cookies are necessary for the site to function. Others may be optional depending on your location and our current site configuration.

​

Where available, you may manage non-essential cookies through the cookie preference controls on our website. You can also control cookies through your browser settings, although disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of the site work.

7

Analytics and advertising

We may use analytics services to understand how people interact with DIYvinci, such as which pages are visited, how visitors navigate the site, and how our services perform.

​

We may also use advertising or marketing technologies to measure campaigns or reach people who may be interested in DIYvinci.

​

Depending on the technology used and the laws where you live, certain advertising activities may be considered the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information even when no money is exchanged for the information. Where required by law, we will provide appropriate choices for opting out of those activities.

8

How we share information

We do not sell personal information for money.


We may share personal information with companies that help us operate DIYvinci, including providers involved in:

​

  • Website hosting and ecommerce

  • Payment processing

  • Shipping and order fulfillment

  • Email delivery and marketing

  • Community hosting

  • Analytics

  • Cloud storage

  • Customer support

  • Course or membership delivery

  • AI and technology services

  • Fraud prevention and security

  • Professional services such as accounting or legal support


These providers may process information only as necessary to provide their services to us or according to their own applicable privacy terms.

​

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to:

​

  • Comply with a law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or other legal process.

  • Respond to lawful requests from government authorities.

  • Investigate fraud, security incidents, misuse, or violations of our terms.

  • Protect the rights, safety, property, or security of DIYvinci, our customers, community members, or others.

  • Establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

9

Third-party services and links

DIYvinci uses third-party platforms and services to operate parts of our business. When you interact directly with a third-party service, that company’s own privacy policy may also apply.

​

Our websites may also contain links to websites, apps, social networks, stores, or other services we do not control. DIYvinci is not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third parties.

10

Email and marketing communications

If you subscribe to our email list or otherwise agree to receive marketing communications, we may send you DIYvinci news, product updates, promotions, creative resources, or similar content.

​

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe link in the message. Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent us from sending necessary transactional or service-related messages, such as purchase confirmations, account notices, or important membership information.

11

Data retention

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and for legitimate business or legal purposes.

​

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information. We may retain information as needed to:

​

  • Maintain your account or membership.

  • Complete transactions.

  • Provide purchased products or services.

  • Maintain business, accounting, and tax records.

  • Resolve disputes.

  • Prevent fraud or abuse.

  • Enforce agreements.

  • Meet legal or regulatory requirements.


When information is no longer reasonably needed, we may delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it.

​

Information you post in community areas may remain visible after you close your account in some circumstances, such as when necessary to preserve the context of conversations, unless it is removed by you, by us, or as required by law.

12

Data security

We use reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction.

​

We also rely on the security measures of the platforms and providers that host or process information on our behalf.

​

No website, online service, database, or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. For that reason, we cannot promise absolute security.

13

Your privacy choices and rights

Depending on where you live, applicable privacy laws may give you certain rights regarding your personal information.

​

These may include the right to:

​

  • Request access to information we hold about you.

  • Request correction of inaccurate information.

  • Obtain a copy of certain information.

  • Object to or restrict certain processing.

  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

  • Opt out of certain marketing communications.

  • Opt out of certain uses of personal information for targeted advertising, sale, or sharing where applicable.

  • Appeal certain decisions regarding a privacy request where required by law.


Privacy rights vary by jurisdiction, and some rights may be subject to exceptions. To make a privacy request, email hello@diyvinci.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.

​

We will not discriminate against you for exercising a privacy right provided by applicable law.

DIYvinci is based in the United States.

​

If you access DIYvinci from another country, your information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate. Privacy and data protection laws in those locations may differ from the laws where you live.

​

Where required, we will process personal information in accordance with applicable data protection laws. Depending on your location, our legal bases for processing information may include:

​

  • Performing a contract with you.

  • Your consent.

  • Compliance with legal obligations.

  • Our legitimate interests in operating, securing, improving, and promoting DIYvinci, where those interests are not overridden by your rights.
