This policy explains what information Power Chord Studio collects through powerchordstudio.com and our mixing and mastering services, how we use it, and the choices you have. Power Chord Studio is an independent, owner-operated studio. Questions about this policy can be sent to powerchordstudiomix@gmail.com.
Information you give us
Project inquiries. When you use our project inquiry form or email us, we receive what you choose to send. The form asks for your name, email address, genre or musical style, the service you need, number of songs and project details, plus an optional preferred timeline and reference songs. Form messages are delivered to our studio email inbox (Gmail). We use these details to reply to you, discuss scope and price, and run your project.
Payments. If we agree on a project, we send you an invoice through PayPal. PayPal processes the payment under its own privacy statement. We never receive your full card or bank details. We keep invoice records such as your name, email address, the amount and the payment status.
Project files. After payment is verified, we send private instructions for uploading your audio through MEGA, a third-party file-transfer service that has its own privacy policy. Your files are used only to deliver the work we agreed on.
