2. Information We Collect
We collect information directly from you when you provide it, automatically when you navigate through the Platform, and through third-party services you authorize.

When creating an account or updating your profile, we collect your full legal name, producer / stage name, email address, physical studio address (used for legal contracts and split sheets), and your default studio base currency (e.g., USD, EUR, GBP).
