WVTC StudiosPrivacy Policy
WVTC Studios ("WVTC," "we," "us") operates this website, which brings together our radio station, our TV network, and our studio and event space rentals. This policy explains what information we collect when you use the site, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information we collect
We only collect information you choose to give us through the forms on this site:
- Email sign-up form: your name, email address, and the topics you're interested in (WVTC Radio, WVTC TV, shop drops, studio rentals).
- Quote request form: your name, organization (optional), email, phone number, the service you're asking about (studio space, commercial package, or event space rental), requested event date, number of hours, number of guests (for event space), and any notes you add.
We do not ask for payment card details or Social Security numbers on this site. Please don't include them in any form field.
How we use your information
- To respond to your quote request and follow up about your event or session.
- To send you email updates you asked for, such as new merchandise, broadcast schedule changes, and studio news.
- To run and improve our programming, site, and services.
- To meet legal obligations and protect our rights.
How form submissions are delivered
When you submit a form, your answers are sent to our business inbox at info@wvtcstudios.com. We use a third-party form delivery service, FormSubmit, to pass those submissions to us. That service processes the submission in order to deliver it, and its own privacy practices apply to that processing.
Email communications
If you join our list, we'll email you roughly twice a month. You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in an email or by writing to info@wvtcstudios.com. We'll stop sending marketing emails promptly. We may still contact you about a quote you requested.
Third-party services and links
This site uses or links to services run by other companies, each with its own privacy policy:
- Google Fonts and Google Calendar: your browser loads fonts from Google, and the broadcast schedule on this site is read from a public Google Calendar. When these load, Google receives standard technical information such as your IP address and browser type.
- Lightcast: our TV app and live radio stream are hosted on wvtc.lightcast.com.
- Our online shop: merchandise is sold at wvtcradio.com. Orders and payments are handled there, not on this site.
- Social media: links to our Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube pages take you to those platforms, which collect their own data.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other websites. Please review their policies before sharing personal information with them.
Cookies and tracking
This site does not set its own cookies and does not use advertising trackers. The third-party services listed above may use cookies or similar technology under their own policies.
Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us operate the site and deliver your submissions, when required by law, or to protect the rights and safety of WVTC, our guests, or others.
How long we keep it
We keep your information for as long as needed to respond to you, provide services you request, and keep our mailing list and business records, unless the law requires a longer period. You can ask us to delete your information at any time.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information you send us. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we can't guarantee absolute security.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us to tell you what personal information we hold about you, correct it, or delete it, and you can opt out of marketing emails at any time. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state or other local privacy laws. To make a request, email info@wvtcstudios.com and we'll respond within a reasonable time.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we'll delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll post the new version here and change the effective date at the top.
