1. Introduction
4101 MAZAL LLC. respects the privacy of every person who visits its website, contacts its studio, or works with it as a brand partner. This Privacy Policy explains what information the company collects, why the company collects it, how the company uses and protects it, and what choices are available to the people whose information is handled. The policy is written to be read, not to hide behind legal language, so each section states plainly what happens and why.
4101 MAZAL LLC. is a computer integrated systems design and professional services company that also runs a small Los Angeles studio producing made-to-order goods for independent brands. The developer associated with this website is 4101 MAZAL. Because the company works with physical goods, brand partners, vendors, and website visitors, the information the company handles ranges from a simple email address to production specifications shared during a project.
The company treats privacy as part of good craft. A brand that shares a design with the studio expects that design to stay confidential, and a visitor who sends a project note expects that note to be used only to answer the inquiry. This policy describes how that expectation is honored in daily practice across every channel the company operates.
2. Scope of This Policy
This policy applies to personal information collected through the website at mazal4101.lat, through email and telephone contact with the studio, through project intake and sample requests, and through any offline interaction with 4101 MAZAL LLC. at its Los Angeles location. It applies to visitors, prospective brand partners, current brand partners, vendors, and any other person who chooses to contact the company.
This policy does not apply to websites or services operated by other companies, even when the company links to them or works alongside them on a project. When the company shares a link to an external site, that site has its own privacy practices, and the company encourages every reader to review those practices before providing information there.
This policy also does not cover information that has been fully anonymized so that it can no longer be connected to an identifiable person. Aggregate statistics that contain no identifying details fall outside the scope of this policy because they cannot be traced back to any individual.
3. Information We Collect
The company collects information that a person chooses to provide and information that is generated automatically when a website is used. The categories below describe what is handled in ordinary studio operations.
Information provided directly
When a person sends a project note through the contact form, the company receives the name, email address, subject line, and message content that the person enters. When a brand partner engages the studio, the company may also receive a company name, a billing address, a shipping address, a telephone number, and the production specifications needed to build a sample or a batch.
Information generated automatically
When a person visits the website, the web server may record basic technical information such as the requested page, the date and time of the request, the referring page, a truncated network address, and the general type of browser or device used. This information is used to keep the site available and to understand which pages are useful.
Information from communications
When a person calls the studio or exchanges email, the company keeps the contents of that correspondence and the contact details attached to it so that a project history can be maintained and a reply can be sent to the right person.
Sensitive information
The company does not ask for and does not want sensitive personal information such as government identification numbers, financial account numbers, health details, or precise location data. A person should not include that kind of information in a project note or an email unless the company specifically requests it for a lawful purpose and explains why it is needed.
4. How We Collect Information
Most information reaches the company because a person deliberately provides it. The contact form, an email to hello@mazal4101.lat, a telephone call to +17069217165, and a written project brief are all direct channels, and each one collects only what the sender chooses to include.
A smaller amount of information is collected automatically through the normal operation of a web server and through privacy-respecting measurement tools. No attempt is made to link automatic technical records to a named individual unless a security incident requires an investigation or the law requires it.
In some cases information is provided by a third party, such as a brand partner who introduces a colleague, a vendor who confirms a delivery contact, or a payment processor that returns a confirmation reference. When the company receives information from a third party, it uses that information only for the purpose it was shared and protects it the same way it protects information received directly.
5. Why We Use Information
The company uses personal information for a limited set of purposes that are tied directly to running a studio and answering the people who contact it. Those purposes include the following.
- Responding to a project note, sample request, or general inquiry, and sending the reply to the correct address.
- Preparing a quotation, a production schedule, or a shipping plan for a brand partner.
- Fulfilling an order, including finishing, packaging, labeling, and coordinating a carrier handoff.
- Maintaining project records so that a repeat run can be matched to the approved sample and the original material list.
- Keeping the website available, secure, and free of abuse.
- Meeting accounting, tax, and legal obligations that apply to a business operating in California.
- Sending occasional studio updates to a person who has asked to receive them.
The company does not sell personal information. The company does not rent, trade, or barter personal information to data brokers or advertising networks. Information is used to serve the purpose for which it was shared, and for no unrelated commercial purpose.
6. Legal Bases for Processing
Where the law requires a legal basis for processing personal information, the company relies on the following grounds.
Contract. Processing is necessary to prepare or perform a contract with a brand partner, such as building a sample, running a batch, or shipping finished goods.
Legitimate interests. Processing is necessary for the legitimate interests of the company in operating a secure website, answering inquiries, maintaining project records, and improving its services, balanced against the rights and expectations of the people whose information is handled.
Consent. Where consent is the chosen basis, such as for an optional studio newsletter, a person may withdraw that consent at any time by writing to hello@mazal4101.lat, and the withdrawal will not affect processing that took place before the request.
Legal obligation. Processing may be necessary to comply with tax, accounting, or other legal requirements that apply to the company.
9. Service Providers and Processors
A service provider is a company that processes information on the behalf of 4101 MAZAL LLC. rather than for its own purposes. The company chooses providers that can meet reasonable privacy and security standards and it limits each provider to the data and the actions needed to deliver the agreed service.
Typical providers include a web host that serves the website files, an email provider that delivers and stores studio correspondence, a payment processor that handles a transaction when one is required, and a shipping carrier that delivers finished goods. Each provider is expected to protect the information it receives, to use it only for the contracted service, and to notify the company promptly if a security incident occurs.
The company reviews its provider relationships from time to time and ends a relationship when a provider can no longer meet the standard described here. Provider names may change as studio operations evolve, and the categories above describe the roles rather than endorsing any single company.
10. International Data Transfers
4101 MAZAL LLC. operates from Los Angeles, California, in the United States (US). Information is normally stored and processed in the United States. If a service provider stores data in another country, the company takes reasonable steps to ensure that the information remains protected by contractual safeguards and by the provider contractual commitments.
Where a brand partner is located outside the United States, the transfer of project information to the studio is necessary to prepare a sample or to run a batch. The company handles that information under this policy regardless of where it is stored, and it applies the same security and retention standards to every project.
11. Data Retention
The company keeps personal information only for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected, plus any additional period required by law. The retention periods below describe ordinary practice.
- Inquiry messages that do not lead to a project are kept for a reasonable period so the company can recognize a returning contact, and are then removed.
- Project records, approved samples, material lists, and inspection notes are kept for the life of the brand relationship so that a repeat run can be matched accurately to the original work.
- Accounting and tax records are kept for the period required by applicable law.
- Technical server logs are kept for a short period and are then deleted or aggregated.
When a retention period ends, information is deleted or anonymized in a way that prevents it from being linked back to a person. If a person asks for earlier deletion and no legal obligation requires otherwise, the company will honor the request within a reasonable time.
12. How We Protect Information
The company uses administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information. Those safeguards include limiting access to the people who need it for a studio task, using reputable service providers, keeping software reasonably current, and storing physical project materials in a controlled studio space.
Access to brand partner information is restricted to the small team that handles the project. A person who no longer needs access loses it. Passwords and account credentials are treated as confidential, and the company asks its providers to support modern authentication where it is available.
No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and the company cannot promise absolute security. If a security incident affects personal information, the company will investigate promptly, take steps to contain it, and notify affected persons and any required authority in the manner and timeframe the law requires.
13. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where a person lives, the law may provide specific privacy rights. The company honors the following rights for everyone who contacts it, regardless of location, because they reflect basic fairness.
- Right to know. A person may ask what personal information the company holds and how it is used.
- Right of access. A person may ask for a copy of the personal information the company holds about them.
- Right to correction. A person may ask the company to correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
- Right to deletion. A person may ask the company to delete personal information, subject to legal retention obligations.
- Right to object or restrict. A person may object to or ask the company to limit certain processing.
- Right to withdraw consent. Where consent is the basis for processing, a person may withdraw it at any time.
- Right against discrimination. The company will not deny service or provide a lesser service because a person exercised a privacy right.
To exercise a right, a person may write to hello@mazal4101.lat or call +17069217165. The company will confirm the request and respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. To protect privacy, the company may ask for enough information to verify that the request comes from the right person before acting on it.
14. Privacy for Children
The website and the services described on it are intended for businesses and for adults. The company does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen. If the company learns that it has collected information from a child under thirteen without the required consent, it will delete that information promptly.
If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information to the company, that person should write to hello@mazal4101.lat so the matter can be reviewed and the information removed. The company does not direct advertising to children and does not knowingly create profiles of children.
15. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Signals
Some browsers offer a Do Not Track setting, and some regions provide a formal opt out preference signal. Because the website does not track visitors across other websites and does not build advertising profiles, there is no cross-site tracking to disable. The company respects a browser signal that asks for privacy by keeping its measurement limited to what is necessary to run the site.
If the company adopts a tool that does perform cross-site tracking, this section will be updated to explain how the relevant signals are honored before the tool is used. The company prefers to avoid such tools altogether and designs its website around that preference.
16. Marketing Communications
The company sends studio updates only to people who have asked to receive them. A person can join an update list by requesting it, and a person can leave at any time by using the unsubscribe method included in each message or by writing to hello@mazal4101.lat.
Project related messages are different from marketing messages. A reply to an inquiry, a sample update, a production schedule, and a shipping notice are service communications that support a project, and the company sends them because they are necessary to complete the work that was requested.
The company does not sell or share an email list. An address collected for a studio update is used for that update and for nothing else.
17. Third Party Websites
The website may link to an external site, such as a carrier tracking page or a supplier reference, when a link is useful to a visitor or a brand partner. The company does not control those external sites and is not responsible for their privacy practices or their content.
A link on this website is not an endorsement of everything found on the linked site. A visitor who follows an external link leaves the protection of this policy and should review the privacy notice of the site being visited before providing any personal information there.
18. Changes to This Policy
The company may update this policy when its practices change, when a new service is introduced, or when the law requires a change. When an update is made, the effective date at the top of the page is revised, and the new version replaces the previous version on this website.
If a change is material, the company will provide a clear notice on the website or by direct message where an address is known. Continued use of the website or continued work with the studio after a change takes effect means the updated policy is accepted. A person who does not agree with an update may stop using the website and may ask the company to delete information that is no longer needed.
