Privacy Policy
Effective October 24, 2026
ABCDEF Studio is a service for writing, reviewing and publishing blog articles, operated by Parker-Lambert ("we", "us"). This policy explains what information we collect when you use ABCDEF Studio, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.
It covers ABCDEF Studio itself. It doesn't cover the websites you publish to, or their visitors: those are governed by your own privacy policies.
Information we collect
Your account
Your name and email address, and your password, which we store only in a scrambled (hashed) form that can't be turned back into the password. We also keep which accounts you belong to, your role in each, invitations you send or receive, and your email notification choices.
Content and settings you add
Articles, outlines, briefs, topics, images, brand rules, schedules, approvals and comments, and the settings for each website (property) you connect. This includes posts we import from your website so you can manage them.
Connections to other services
To publish and report on your behalf, we store the credentials you give us for your website (such as an API key or a WordPress application password), Google Analytics and Search Console access, and LinkedIn and Klaviyo access, if you connect them. These are stored encrypted.
From Google Analytics and Search Console, we receive totals and statistics about your website: page views, visitor counts, traffic sources, and the searches your pages appeared for. These are aggregated figures. We don't receive the identities of your website's visitors.
AI assistant connections
If you connect an AI assistant to ABCDEF Studio, we store its access key (hashed) or sign-in token, and for troubleshooting, basic details of recent requests from it, such as the tool's name and when it connected.
Activity
A record of actions taken in ABCDEF Studio, such as who approved or published an article and when, and how many AI drafts each account has used this month.
Cookies
We use a single cookie, which keeps you signed in. We don't use advertising or tracking cookies, and we don't run analytics on ABCDEF Studio's own pages. Our hosting provider keeps standard server logs, which include visitors' IP addresses, for security and operations.
How we use information
- To provide ABCDEF Studio: writing and editing articles, publishing them to your website, sharing them on LinkedIn if you choose, and reporting how they perform.
- To send the emails you've chosen, such as drafts ready for review, and invitations.
- To keep the service secure, prevent abuse, and fix problems.
- To apply your plan's limits, such as the monthly AI draft allowance.
We don't sell personal information, and we don't use it for advertising.
AI processing
ABCDEF Studio uses AI services to write drafts, suggest topics and titles, and create images. To do that, we send the relevant content to the AI provider: for example, an article's brief, your brand rules, and the draft being written. We use these providers' business APIs, under terms that limit how they may use the data.
Who we share information with
We share information only as needed to run ABCDEF Studio, with these service providers:
- IONOS, which hosts ABCDEF Studio and its database.
- Anthropic and OpenAI, for AI writing and image creation.
- Brevo, which sends our emails.
- Google, when you connect Google Analytics or Search Console.
- LinkedIn, when you connect LinkedIn and share articles there.
- Klaviyo, when a brand connects its Klaviyo account, to email new articles to that brand's subscribers. We don't receive or store the subscribers' details: we send the email to a list, and Klaviyo delivers it.
- Your own websites and their platforms, such as WordPress or Shopify, when we publish to them for you.
If an agency manages your account, its team members can see and work on your account's content, as you've agreed with that agency.
We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect the rights and safety of our users or others, or as part of a sale or merger of our business, in which case this policy would continue to apply.
Where information is stored
Our servers are in the United States. Some of the service providers above may process information in other countries.
How long we keep information
We keep your information while your account is open. When an account closes, we delete its content and personal information within 30 days, except where we must keep something longer by law, or in backups, which are deleted on their regular schedule. Articles already published to your website stay there: they're yours, and under your control.
Your choices and rights
- Your details: change your name and password in Your Settings.
- Emails: choose which notifications you get in Your Settings, or use the unsubscribe link in any notification email.
- Connections: disconnect LinkedIn, Klaviyo, Google or your website at any time in Property Settings, and revoke AI assistant access in Your Settings.
- Access, correction and deletion: ask us for a copy of your personal information, or to correct or delete it, by emailing hello@abcdef.studio.
Depending on where you live, such as the European Union, the United Kingdom or California, you may have further rights, including objecting to some uses of your information, and complaining to a data protection authority. Email us to use them. We reply within 30 days.
Security
We protect information with encrypted connections (HTTPS), encrypted storage of credentials, hashed passwords and access keys, and role-based access, so people see only the accounts and properties they're allowed to. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to keep your information safe, and will tell you promptly if a breach affects it.
Children
ABCDEF Studio is a business service, not intended for anyone under 16, and we don't knowingly collect their information.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we'll update the effective date above. For significant changes, we'll also tell account owners by email before the change takes effect.
