Last updated: November 14, 2026
This policy explains how Kelly M O’Brien / Material Projects, LLC handles personal information through kellyobrien.art and Studio Updates. For questions or privacy requests, contact kelly@kellyobrien.art.
Information you provide
When you subscribe to Studio Updates, the website asks for your first name and email address; your last name is optional. This information is used to manage your subscription and send occasional news about my artwork, exhibitions, studio and related events. When you contact me, I receive the information you choose to include and use it to respond.
Website hosting and analytics
This website is hosted by Squarespace. Squarespace processes technical information needed to provide, maintain and protect the website, including browser, device and network information, IP addresses and pages visited. The website also uses Squarespace analytics and activity logging to understand visits and site performance.
Cookies
Squarespace uses cookies and similar technologies for essential website functions and analytics. You can manage or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect website functionality. For information about Squarespace’s cookies, see its cookie guidance.
Studio Updates and email tracking
The website signup service stores subscription information in Squarespace. I also use Mailchimp to manage mailing lists and deliver Studio Updates.
Mailchimp tracks email interactions, including opens and link clicks, and provides reports with related technical information such as interaction times, device information and approximate location. This helps me understand engagement with my emails. Open and click measurements can be affected by automated activity and email privacy protections.
You can unsubscribe or update your preferences using the links in a Studio Updates email, or contact me at the address above.
Service providers
Squarespace and Mailchimp process information to provide website, subscription and email services. Their privacy statements explain their processing, including international handling of information: Squarespace Privacy Policy and Intuit Global Privacy Statement, covering Mailchimp.

You can contact me to ask about information held about you, request a correction or deletion, or raise a privacy concern. Applicable rights and exceptions depend on the law that applies to your request.

This site links to social media, venues and other external websites. Those services have their own privacy practices.
