Service Providers

Scrimshaw uses third-party services to operate parts of the business, such as website hosting, appointment scheduling, online forms, payment processing, email, and other business tools.

These providers may process personal information as necessary to provide their services. Their handling of your information is also subject to their own privacy policies and practices.

Payments

Payments may be processed through third-party payment providers. Scrimshaw does not directly store complete credit or debit card information submitted through those payment systems.

Photos

I may photograph completed tattoos for studio records and, with permission where appropriate, for my portfolio, website, or social media.

I will not intentionally publish identifying personal information alongside a tattoo photograph without permission.

If you have privacy concerns about photography, please let me know before your appointment.

Identification & Client Records

Scrimshaw may request identification when necessary to verify identity, age, or eligibility for tattoo services.

Personal information and client records are kept only for legitimate business, safety, licensing, or legal purposes and are stored with reasonable safeguards intended to protect them from unauthorized access.

I aim to collect and retain only the personal information reasonably necessary to operate the studio and meet applicable requirements.
