Privacy.
This is an early-access policy draft. The operator’s legal name, business address, privacy contact, service providers and retention schedule must be confirmed before public launch or paid sign-ups.
About this policy
Friday Effects is a visual studio for 3D, animation and effects. This draft describes this marketing website and its embedded demonstrations. The linked web editor, optional AI services, Sketchfab and Discord are separate services or features; their data practices need to be disclosed before you use them. “We” means the operator of Friday Effects, whose legal and contact details are pending.
Information used by this website
The feature wall runs in your browser. Dragging, scrolling, pausing and resetting do not submit your interactions to a Friday Effects server. This page does not ask for your name, email, payment details or creative work. No advertising pixels or analytics trackers have been added to the website code.
The hosting service receives information needed to deliver the site, such as your IP address, requested pages, browser information and technical logs. A private hosted preview may also require the hosting provider’s sign-in and access controls. That provider manages its own authentication information.
Browser storage and third-party requests
Embedded product demonstrations can use service workers and browser caches to store engine files and assets for faster repeat visits. Clearing site data removes these local caches. Your physics-wall positions are temporary and are not saved to an account.
The new homepage serves its fonts locally. The product page currently loads Montserrat through Google Fonts, which receives your network request, including your IP address. Following external links sends you to another website governed by its own privacy policy. The Discord invite is not yet active.
Purposes and legal grounds
The intended purposes are delivering the website, controlling access to private previews, keeping it secure and responding to requests. Where applicable, the legal grounds are providing a requested service or our legitimate interests in operating and protecting it. Any optional processing that requires consent will need a separate, clear choice before it begins.
Sharing, transfers and retention
Hosting and infrastructure providers may process technical information needed to run the site. The final policy will identify the relevant providers, international-transfer safeguards and retention periods. We have not added a sale-of-personal-data or targeted-advertising integration. Technical data should be kept only as long as necessary for its purpose and applicable obligations; an exact server-log schedule has not yet been confirmed.
Your choices and rights
Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, erase or obtain a copy of personal data, restrict processing, object to processing, withdraw consent and complain to a data-protection authority. These rights have conditions and exceptions. The privacy contact for exercising them will be published before launch; until then, avoid submitting personal information through this preview.
You can clear your browser’s site data, choose not to follow external links, and use the site without creating a Friday Effects account. See the European Commission’s explanation of privacy rights.
Security, children and updates
We intend to use proportionate technical and organisational protections, while recognising that no online service is completely secure. This preview is not directed at children. Before collecting account information, the final service will set out age requirements and a contact for any child-data concerns. Material changes to this policy will be dated and communicated where required.
