Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

When you join the waitlist, apply for an opportunity, create an account, make a purchase, or contact us, we may collect your email address, phone number, preferred brand identity, interest category, application details, account profile details, order and product access records, message details, and technical information needed to operate the site.

For fit-testing, event, content, or brand-work applications, we may collect the swimwear size profile, measurements, availability, location, experience, resume or portfolio links, optional social links, and optional media links you choose to provide. Social profiles, photos, portfolio links, and media links are optional unless a separate written agreement for a specific content or campaign role says otherwise.

That technical information may include browser and device details such as user agent data, page paths, referrer information, and on-site interaction events such as page views, button clicks, and waitlist form activity.

Local Storage and Site Measurement

During site use, Salt & Silk Group may store limited event or preview information in your browser's local storage to support lightweight measurement, testing, and preview behavior. Local preview waitlist entries saved on a local device during development are not the same as live production signups.

If you block local storage or clear your browser data, some lightweight measurement or preview behavior may not persist between visits.

How We Use Information

We use information to send brand updates, manage early access interest, review applications, match sample sizes for fit-testing needs, operate shared Salt & Silk accounts, track initiation and future access, confirm purchases, respond to inquiries, understand site performance, and prepare future product and partnership communications.

Consent and Unsubscribe

Marketing emails will be sent only to people who request updates. You may unsubscribe from future marketing emails at any time once email delivery is active. Transactional emails tied to account access, order confirmations, payment status, shipping, returns, or service messages may still be sent when needed to complete a purchase or support request.

Service Providers

Salt & Silk Group may use service providers for hosting, authentication, database operations, email delivery, payment processing, analytics, optional location autocomplete, and related site operations. Current or planned providers may include Firebase, Google Maps/Places when location autocomplete is active, and other infrastructure, email, or payment partners used to run the site and related communications.

Those providers should only process information for the services they provide to us. Payment details are processed by the relevant payment provider and are not stored in full on the public website.

Account and Order Records

When checkout is active, we store the account email tied to the purchase or, for guest checkout, the order email and guest-order identifiers needed to support the order. We use that information to send receipts and post-purchase updates, answer support questions, recover guest orders, link eligible guest purchases to an account after verification, process returns or refunds, and maintain access to the correct Salt & Silk account.

Creator, Vendor, and Partnership Inquiries

If you contact Salt & Silk Group about creator, model, press, vendor, or partnership opportunities, we may keep the contact details, social handles, portfolio links, message contents, and other details you choose to send so we can review and respond.

Separate written agreements, releases, or disclosure requirements may apply before any collaboration, gifting, paid content, public posting, or image use moves forward.

Employment and Fit-Testing Applications

Application records are reviewed privately by authorized Salt & Silk administrators. Fit-profile information is used to evaluate sample-size needs, fitting availability, role fit, and next steps. We do not ask for date of birth on the application form, and optional social or media links should be submitted only when they help explain experience or public-facing work.

Submitting an application does not guarantee employment, fit-testing participation, event invitations, public-facing work, or future compensation. Additional eligibility, paperwork, releases, or agreements may be requested later if an opportunity moves forward.

Retention and Security

We keep waitlist, application, account, and order records for as long as they are reasonably needed for review, customer support, legal, accounting, fraud-prevention, or launch operations. We use platform-level security controls from our providers, but no internet system can be guaranteed perfectly secure.

Your Requests

You may request help with access, correction, deletion, guest-order recovery, account linking, unsubscribe questions, or other privacy inquiries by emailing support@saltandsilkgroup.com. We may need to verify account ownership, order ownership, or request details before changing, linking, deleting, or disclosing account-related information.

Eligibility Standards

The public site is intended for a general audience. Certain employment, fit-feedback, photoshoot, and event opportunities may have role-specific eligibility requirements, paperwork, releases, or supervision standards that are handled after initial application review.
