Privacy Policy
Last Updated: June 6, 2026
At Meridian & Monarch, inclusive of our dedicated creative salon, Wedding Story Art ("Studio," "we," "us," or "our"), discretion is a foundational pillar of our service standard. We are deeply committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of our hosts, clients, and digital visitors.
This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, utilize, safeguard, and manage your information when you interact with our website (the "Site") or submit inquiries through our client intake channels.
1. Information We Collect
To maintain our standard of high-touch, bespoke curation, we collect both information you directly provide to us and data gathered automatically through your digital interaction with the Site.
A. Information You Provide Explicitly
When you request an invitation, submit an inquiry via our Contact Page, or subscribe to The Curated Chronicle, we may collect:
Identity Data: Full name, professional title, and organizational affiliation.
Contact Data: Email address, telephone number, and primary residency details.
Celebration & Event Data: Dates, intended geographic locations, estimated guest capacities, and personal narrative details surrounding your landmark milestone (Generational Chapters, Enduring Unions, or Triumphs & Lineage).
B. Automatically Collected Data
When you navigate the Site, certain technical data is captured automatically via our hosting infrastructure (Squarespace), including:
IP addresses, browser variants, operating systems, and device identifiers.
Engagement metrics, page viewing durations, and navigational paths through our editorial pages.
2. How We Utilize Your Information
We process your personal information strictly to deliver an elite, seamless service experience. Specifically, we use your data to:
Evaluate and vet client intake submissions to protect the integrity of our low-volume creative calendar.
Communicate directly regarding your private consultations or event proposals.
Deliver our exclusive lookbooks, design builds, and masterclass insights via The Curated Chronicle (only where explicit opt-in consent is granted).
Maintain, secure, and optimize the visual performance and layout stability of our Site.
3. The Discretion Standard & Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, trade, or commercially exploit your personal data or event details under any circumstances.
To execute zero-margin-for-error events, information may be shared strictly under the following parameters:
Curated Vendors & Partners: We may share highly specific logistics data with trusted, elite creative partners (e.g., structural engineers, floral artisans, haute-couture caterers) strictly necessary to execute your contract. These partners are bound by mirroring confidentiality expectations.
Legal Protections: We may disclose information if required to do so by applicable law, strict judicial mandate, or to protect the safety, rights, and security architecture of Meridian & Monarch, our staff, or our clientele.
4. Data Security & Retention
We implement rigorous technical and administrative security frameworks designed to shield your personal details from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. Because our clientele regularly includes high-net-worth individuals, executives, and high-profile figures, our digital data access is strictly gated internally.
We retain your personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, comply with formal corporate accounting standards, or satisfy the ongoing legacy archiving requirements of your family estate contracts.
5. Cookie Architecture & Analytics
The Site utilizes standard cookies and tracking pixels to smooth navigation flows and analyze site traffic behavior. You possess the absolute right to modify your personal browser preferences to reject cookies; however, please note that certain architectural features or animations on our Site may experience degraded performance as a result.
6. Your Rights & Erasure Requests
Depending on your geographical jurisdiction (including protections under the California Consumer Privacy Act / CCPA), you may hold specific rights regarding your data, including:
The right to request formal disclosure of the personal data categories we hold.
The right to demand immediate rectification of inaccurate contact details.
The right to request the total erasure of your digital data from our active marketing databases.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact our private studio management directly using the credentials listed below.
