Privacy Policy

1. Overview & Studio Commitment

Nook (“nook;”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is an independent software studio building its own products and tailored software solutions. We believe good software should respect human attention, time, and privacy.

This website (builtbynook.com) provides an informational overview of our studio, principles, and software portfolio. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information in connection with this website.

2. Zero Tracking & No Non-Essential Cookies

We do not install or operate third-party analytics trackers, advertising surveillance pixels, conversion trackers, or third-party social media embed scripts on this website.

We do not use non-essential cookies. Because our site operates without tracking scripts, marketing cookies, or cross-site profiling, no intrusive cookie banner is needed or displayed.

3. Direct Email Correspondence

When you contact us directly via email at hello@builtbynook.com, we receive your email address, name (if provided), and any details you share within your message.

We use this information solely to review, communicate about, and respond to your direct inquiry. We will never sell, rent, or use your contact details for unsolicited marketing lists or sales outreach.

4. Contact Form Processing Status

To ensure complete alignment with data protection best practices, online contact form processing on this website is temporarily kept disabled pending the formal review of our email provider, data handling infrastructure, and applicable legal requirements.

All active inquiries during this initial launch period are routed directly to our founding operators via hello@builtbynook.com.

5. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell, trade, or monetize personal information under any circumstance. We only disclose information if strictly required to do so by applicable law, court order, or official governmental regulation.

6. Data Retention & Your Rights

We retain correspondence records only for as long as needed to fulfill the legitimate business purpose of the communication or to comply with statutory accounting and legal obligations.

You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your email correspondence records from our systems at any time. To make a request, contact us at hello@builtbynook.com.

7. Product Destinations & External Links
