Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 August 2026

Tusif Ahmad respects your privacy and is committed to handling your personal information responsibly.

This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, stored and disclosed when you visit tusifahmad.com, contact us, subscribe to our newsletter, enquire about an artwork, commission or exhibition, or purchase an artwork or other product.

By using this website, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We May Collect

The personal information we collect depends on how you interact with the website. This may include:

your name;
email address;
telephone number;
billing and delivery address;
country or location;
information submitted through contact or enquiry forms;
information relating to artwork purchases or commissions;
newsletter subscription details;
correspondence between you and Tusif Ahmad;
information relating to exhibition, workshop or artist-talk enquiries; and
technical information about how you use the website.

We only seek to collect information that is reasonably necessary for operating the website, communicating with you and providing our products and services.

2. Artwork Purchases and Commissions

If you purchase an artwork or request a commissioned artwork, we may collect information necessary to manage your purchase, including your name, contact details, delivery address, order information and payment confirmation.

This information may be used to process and manage your order, prepare invoices or receipts, communicate regarding your purchase, arrange packaging and delivery, manage commissioned artworks, provide customer support, and maintain appropriate business and transaction records.

3. Payment Information

Payments may be processed through third-party payment providers. Where a third-party payment provider processes your transaction, your credit card, debit card or other payment credentials may be collected directly by that provider rather than by Tusif Ahmad.

We generally do not need to store your complete credit or debit card details. Payment providers have their own privacy and security policies, and we encourage you to review those policies when making a payment.

4. Contact and Enquiries

When you contact us through the website, email, social media or another communication method, we may retain your name, contact information and correspondence. This information may be used to respond to your enquiry and maintain a record of our communication.

This can include enquiries regarding purchasing artwork, commissioned artwork, exhibitions, museums and galleries, artist talks, workshops, collaborations, media enquiries, shipping, and other professional or artistic opportunities.

If you subscribe to our newsletter or otherwise consent to receive marketing communications, we may use your name and email address to send you information about new artworks, exhibitions and events, artist talks and workshops, papercutting tutorials, articles and stories about artworks, videos and vlogs, studio updates, available artworks, and other relevant news from Tusif Ahmad.

Newsletter frequency may vary. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link contained in the email or by contacting us.

Unsubscribing from marketing communications will not prevent us from sending necessary transactional communications relating to an existing purchase, commission or enquiry.

6. Website Analytics

We may use website analytics services, such as Google Analytics or similar technologies, to understand how visitors use the website. Information collected may include pages visited, approximate geographic location, device type, browser type, referring website, time spent on pages, interactions with artworks or website features, and general website traffic information.

We use this information to understand visitor interest, improve the website and learn which artworks, exhibitions and content are of most interest to visitors. Analytics information is generally used in an aggregated or statistical form rather than to personally identify individual visitors.

7. Cookies

This website may use cookies and similar technologies. Cookies are small files stored on your device that can help websites remember preferences, understand visitor behaviour and provide certain functionality.

Cookies may be used for essential website functionality, remembering preferences, website analytics, improving website performance, measuring engagement, and marketing or advertising where applicable.

You can generally control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how certain parts of the website function.

8. How We Use Personal Information

We may use personal information to:

provide and improve this website;
respond to enquiries;
process artwork purchases;
manage commissions;
arrange shipping and delivery;
communicate with collectors and customers;
manage exhibition, gallery, workshop and collaboration enquiries;
send newsletters where you have subscribed;
maintain appropriate business records;
understand how visitors interact with the website;
protect against fraud, misuse or security threats; and
comply with applicable legal obligations.

We do not intend to use your personal information for purposes unrelated to those for which it was collected without an appropriate reason or your consent where required.

We do not sell your personal information as part of our ordinary business activities. However, we may need to share limited information with trusted third parties that help operate the website or provide services.

These may include website hosting providers, cloud and database providers, payment processors, email and newsletter providers, website analytics providers, accountants or professional advisers, shipping and courier companies, and technology service providers.

Only information reasonably necessary to provide the relevant service should be shared. We may also disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to protect our legal rights.

10. Shipping Providers

When an artwork or other item needs to be delivered, we may provide necessary information to a courier, postal service or shipping company. This may include your name, delivery address, email address, telephone number, and other information reasonably required to complete delivery.

The shipping provider will handle this information according to its own privacy practices.

This website may contain links to third-party websites or platforms, including social media services. Once you leave our website and visit another website or platform, that organisation’s privacy policy will apply.

Tusif Ahmad is not responsible for the privacy practices, security or content of independent third-party websites.

Tusif Ahmad may maintain profiles on platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube or other social networks. If you communicate or interact with us through these platforms, information may also be collected and processed by the relevant social media provider according to its own privacy policy.

13. Protecting Your Information

Reasonable steps are taken to protect personal information against misuse, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. However, no website, database, email service or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You should therefore avoid sending highly sensitive information through ordinary website forms or email unless necessary.

14. How Long We Keep Information

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or where retention is required for business, accounting, taxation, legal or regulatory purposes.

For example, information relating to artwork purchases and invoices may need to be retained for financial and record-keeping purposes even if you later unsubscribe from marketing communications.

15. International Service Providers

Some technology, website, payment, analytics, email or cloud service providers may store or process information outside Australia. As a result, personal information may in some circumstances be processed or stored overseas.

Where reasonably practicable, we seek to use reputable service providers that maintain appropriate privacy and security practices.

16. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on applicable law and the circumstances, you may contact us to ask what personal information we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate information, request deletion of information where appropriate, withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, unsubscribe from marketing communications, or raise a concern about how your information has been handled.

Certain information may need to be retained where required by law or for legitimate business, financial or legal purposes.

17. Children’s Privacy

This website is intended for a general audience and is not designed specifically to collect personal information from children. We do not knowingly seek to collect unnecessary personal information from children.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the website inappropriately, please contact us.

18. Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the website, technology, services, business practices or applicable legal requirements.

When significant changes are made, the Last updated date at the top of this page will be revised. We encourage visitors to review this Privacy Policy periodically.

19. Privacy Questions or Complaints

If you have a question, concern or complaint regarding your personal information or this Privacy Policy, please contact us. We will make reasonable efforts to review and respond to privacy enquiries appropriately.
