Legal & Privacy

Data controller. ArtHub Texas is an initiative of the Texas European Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3) U.S. nonprofit (the “Foundation”). The Foundation is the controller of the personal data collected through this website. Contact: hello@birthingpicasso.com.

What we collect. We collect (a) the information you submit through our forms, name, email address, organization, the audience category you select and your message; (b) our newsletter sign-up email, if provided; and (c) limited technical data (such as anonymized analytics) only where you have consented to non-essential cookies.

Purposes and legal basis. We process your data to respond to your enquiry, manage partnerships and sponsorships, send communications you have requested, and improve the site. Our legal bases are your consent, the performance of steps taken at your request, and our legitimate interest in operating and promoting the institution. We do not sell your personal data or use it for automated decision-making.

Sharing. We share data only with service providers who process it on our behalf (for example, form/email and hosting providers) under appropriate agreements, and where required by law. Our project partners (OverlaB Intelligence, STEM in Schools and collaborating institutions) receive your data only when necessary to handle a request you have directed to them.

International transfers. The Foundation operates between the United States and Europe. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we rely on appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses) to protect it.

Retention. We keep enquiry and partnership data for as long as needed to manage the relationship and to meet legal and accounting obligations, after which it is deleted or anonymized.

Your rights. You may request access to, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your data, and object to certain processing, by writing to hello@birthingpicasso.com. Where applicable you have the rights granted under the EU/UK GDPR and under Texas and other U.S. state privacy laws, including the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Security & children. We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data. This site is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data. We may update this policy; material changes will be posted here with a revised date.

What cookies are. Cookies and similar technologies are small files stored on your device that let a site function and, optionally, measure how it is used.

Essential cookies. We use strictly necessary cookies and local storage to remember your language choice and your cookie preferences. These are always active because the site cannot function correctly without them; they do not require consent.

Analytics cookies. Only if you accept them, we may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate, anonymized usage and improve the site. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

Managing your choice. You control non-essential cookies through the consent banner shown on your first visit. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time by clearing this site’s storage in your browser, which will make the banner appear again.

Third parties & changes. Where an embedded service (such as a maps or video provider) sets its own cookies, its policy also applies. We may update this policy; the current version always appears on this page.

Acceptance. By using this website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Informational purpose. Content is provided for information about the ArtHub Texas project, the Birthing Picasso (exhibition) and Unlocking Picasso (education/STEAM) initiatives, and related programs. Figures, dates and projections are preliminary, may change, and are subject to final validation and written agreement. Nothing here is an offer, a solicitation of investment, or professional advice.

Intellectual property. The site, its texts, layout, graphics and logos are owned by the Foundation or its licensors and may not be copied or reused without permission.

Picasso and third-party works. Works by Pablo Picasso are reproduced by permission and are protected by copyright: © Sucesión Pablo Picasso, VEGAP. They may not be reproduced, cropped, altered or reused. Names, marks and images of the Museo Casa Natal Picasso and partner institutions remain the property of their respective owners and are used with permission.

Acceptable use. You agree not to misuse the site, attempt to disrupt it, submit unlawful or infringing content through our forms, or use automated means to harvest data.

Disclaimers & liability. The site is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Foundation is not liable for any indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the site or reliance on its content. External links are provided for convenience and we are not responsible for third-party sites.

Governing law & changes. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence. We may update these terms; continued use after changes constitutes acceptance. Questions: hello@birthingpicasso.com.

Our commitment. As a cultural and educational institution we want everyone to be able to use this site, and we treat accessibility as a standard rather than a feature.

Standard. We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA.

Measures. The site provides sufficient colour contrast, full keyboard navigation and visible focus states, alternative text on meaningful imagery, scalable text, semantic structure and landmarks, and a reduced-motion mode that honours your system preference.

Known limitations. Some third-party or embedded content, and documents provided by partners, may not yet fully conform; we are working to address these.

Feedback. If you encounter an accessibility barrier, or need information in an alternative format, please contact hello@birthingpicasso.com and we will respond and work to resolve it promptly.
