Like most websites, ours collects technical information such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and referring site through cookies and similar tools, including Google Analytics, Google advertising tools, and the Meta (Facebook/Instagram) pixel.

Phone calls and our automated booking assistant
When you call our studio, your call may be answered by an automated (AI) phone booking assistant. Calls may be recorded and transcribed. We do this to book and manage your session, to check and improve the quality of our service, and to keep a record of what was booked.

- Who can access them: Deivis Archbold and studio staff who need them to handle your booking, plus those service providers as described above. We do not sell call recordings or transcripts.
- How long we keep them: as long as needed for those purposes, and longer only if required for legal, tax, or accounting reasons.
- Your choices: if you prefer not to be recorded, you can email us instead. To ask for a copy of, or deletion of, a recording or transcript of your call, email help@deivisarchbold.com.

Studio Nest Control — internal studio automation

DAP Studio Nest Control is an internal tool used by Deivis Archbold Photography. The studio owner authorizes the Google Nest connection. Customers do not need to connect their own Google or Nest accounts.

What this automation accesses and does
The tool reads status, temperature and target-setting data from the authorized, mapped studio thermostat. It reads appointment times from our business-calendar provider, sends occupancy-confirmation cards through the owner's private Slack conversation, and can change the studio cooling target after the owner confirms a dated occupancy plan. The tool does not change native thermostat schedules or automatically control personal-home devices.

How information is used and shared
Google Nest data is used for studio climate control, owner confirmations, troubleshooting and control auditing. This automation does not sell Google Nest data or use it for advertising or marketing. Information is processed through the Google Nest/Google Cloud connection, our calendar/CRM provider, Slack and our private hosting environment as needed for those functions. Owner-authorized maintenance may inspect operational summaries to configure or troubleshoot the tool.

Storage and access
Operational records can include dated appointment time ranges, owner choices, target changes and verification outcomes. Control-audit records use time ranges and fingerprints rather than customer names or contact details. OAuth credentials are held on the private server with restricted access and are not included in Slack cards or public pages. Connections to Google, the calendar provider and Slack use secure APIs. Operational audit records remain private until removed by the owner or an authorized administrator.

Owner controls
The owner can stop future automatic operation and revoke the Google connection through Google's account connection controls. Revocation stops future API access and does not itself reverse a target already applied; the owner should check Nest if a connection is removed while automation is active. To ask about retained operational information, contact help@deivisarchbold.com.
