1. Introduction

HB Studios Delivery is a private digital gallery and
media delivery platform operated by HB Studios.
The platform allows HB Studios to securely deliver
photographs, videos and other media to clients
through private online galleries.

This Privacy Policy explains how information may be
collected, used, stored and processed when you use
HB Studios Delivery.

2. Information We Process

Depending on how you use the platform, we may process
limited information required to provide the gallery
and media delivery service.

This may include:

• Client or gallery name.
• Gallery identification information.
• Gallery access credentials.
• Gallery access permissions.
• Files and media stored in the connected Google Drive account.
• Selections or proofing information submitted through a gallery.
• Technical information required to operate and secure the service.
• Basic activity information related to gallery usage.

3. Google Drive Access

HB Studios Delivery uses the Google Drive API to
retrieve media from Google Drive for the purpose of
displaying and delivering files through private
client galleries.

Google Drive remains the primary storage location
for original media. HB Studios Delivery does not
use Google Drive access to modify, delete or
redistribute files outside the functionality
required to operate the delivery platform.

Access to Google Drive is granted by the Google
account owner through Google’s authorization system.
The application only uses the permissions granted
during authorization.

4. How We Use Google Drive Information

Information obtained through Google Drive is used
only to provide the functionality of HB Studios
Delivery.

This may include:

• Reading files and folders required for a gallery.
• Displaying media information and previews.
• Streaming authorized media to gallery visitors.
• Providing authorized downloads.
• Generating temporary previews or thumbnails where required.
• Keeping gallery content synchronized with connected Drive content.

We do not sell Google Drive data or use Google Drive
content for advertising purposes.

5. Gallery Access

Galleries may be protected using passwords, private
links, expiration dates or other access controls
provided by the platform.

Access permissions determine what a visitor is
allowed to do within a gallery, such as viewing
media, downloading files, submitting selections or
sharing authorized gallery links.

Users are responsible for keeping private gallery
credentials or links they receive confidential.

6. Media and Original Files

Original photographs, videos and other client media
remain stored in the connected Google Drive account.

HB Studios Delivery is a delivery interface and
does not replace the original storage system.
Temporary technical files such as thumbnails,
previews, cached media or generated download
packages may be created when needed to provide
the service.

7. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational
measures designed to protect information processed
through the platform against unauthorized access,
alteration, disclosure or destruction.

These measures may include authenticated access,
encrypted connections, protected session
credentials, restricted server access and
permission-based gallery controls.

No internet-based service can guarantee absolute
security. We therefore cannot guarantee that
information transmitted or stored through the
internet will always remain completely secure.

8. Authentication and Cookies

The platform may use cookies or similar browser
mechanisms to maintain authenticated sessions and
temporary access permissions.

These mechanisms are used to operate the service
and protect private galleries. They are not intended
to be used for advertising or cross-site behavioral
tracking.

9. Sharing of Information

HB Studios does not sell personal information or
client media to third parties.

Information may be processed by technical service
providers when necessary to operate the platform,
including hosting, infrastructure, authentication,
storage or API services used by the application.

Google Drive is used as the connected media storage
service. Google processes information according to
Google’s own privacy policies and terms.

10. Data Retention

Gallery information may be retained for as long as
necessary to provide the delivery service or
maintain the associated client gallery.

Original media remains subject to the retention and
deletion policies of the connected Google Drive
account.

Temporary cached files, thumbnails, previews and
generated download packages may be removed when
they are no longer required for the operation of
the service.

11. Data Deletion

If you are a client or gallery owner and would like
to request deletion of information associated with
a gallery, you may contact HB Studios using the
contact information provided below.

Requests may be subject to verification to ensure
that information is not deleted from an account or
gallery without proper authorization.

12. Third-Party Services

HB Studios Delivery may rely on third-party
services necessary to provide specific technical
functionality. These services may process limited
information as required to perform their respective
functions.

The primary external service used for media access
is Google Drive and its associated APIs.

13. Children’s Privacy

HB Studios Delivery is not specifically directed
toward children. We do not knowingly collect
personal information from children for the purpose
of creating user accounts or profiles.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to
time to reflect changes to the platform, services,
security practices or applicable requirements.

When changes are made, the updated version will be
published on this page together with the revised
effective date.
