FOUNDER & PARTNER
Mark started Juicyorange in 1995, building websites in the internet stone age. His design and programming skills served him well with word-of-mouth referrals building Juicyorange's client list and portfolio quickly in the early years of the commercial internet. As website technology advanced over the years, Mark spent more time focusing on the creative aspects of the business and carefully grew Juicyorange, LLC as a lean, client-focused boutique agency.
During most of Juicyorange’s growth, Mark — a professional drummer — spent his post college years touring the World and recording with various A-list artists such as Alicia Keys, Tamar-Kali and Jay Sean to name a few. It was during his touring years that he learned to make websites on his then bulky laptop on the tourbus, helping to “pass the time on the road and avoid other temptations.” Now, Mark has three kids, enjoys building things, rides his bicycle a lot and lives with his wife in NY while focusing on Juicyorange.
Juicyorange was named after his first car, a 1974 orange Volvo wagon with 200K miles; it was almost named "Orangeapeel" or "Orangeappeal."

She is currently working as a designer at Juicyorange in NYC and is looking to build a long-term career in user exprience (UX) and user interaction (UI) design.

Jon Smith
Programmer
Jon Marshall Smith, programmer and pilot, started his keyboard-centric lifestyle in recording studios, committing to tape (tape!) acts such as Hot Tuna, Joey Ramone, and The Backstreet Boys.
Brazilian indie-popsters Mosquitos brought him and drummer Mark together in a blue and white Dodge van with Betty Boop and a mysterious amphib known only as The Toad. To finance their vagabond lifestyles, websites were made along the way, and finally, the Gems of Ruby rooted Jon onto a mountainside in western North Carolina, where he surveys the countryside below from his glass walled fortress in the company of his wife and two cats. When not coding, Jon works in his mastering studio on various recording projects only after dismantling and, usually, putting his Subarus back together.
Alexander Mathis
Developer
Alexander Mathis is a New York-based self taught developer with an interest in frontend web development. He started his career working freelance with CMS platforms such as Wordpress and Shopify until being hired by JuicyOrange. His long-term aspirations are working on his backend skills, furthering his core computer science understanding, and working on his design skills.
Alexander likes to read philosophy and travel in his free time, especially exploring new cities. He also loves toy dogs (especially the Pomeranian) which he hopes does not bother his Morkie.
Kristine Harrison
Designer / Programmer
Kristine has more than 25 years of digital and print design experience in a variety of creative fields. From the start-up of a photo agency, working in the print industry, and even owning her own small business, she’s covered a lot of ground. Basically, she just really likes to build things.
She built her first website way back in 1999, and over the past 2 decades has dabbled with various platforms and languages. Lots of keeping up with Adobe, e-commerce, good ol’ HTML and CSS, and playing with whatever’s new on the scene. You could say she has an artist’s eye for detail, and a programmer’s love of logic.
Kristine calls the Hudson Valley home. She stays busy keeping up with her family, creating baking masterpieces in the kitchen, hiding her latest knitting projects from the cats, or rambling up and down hiking trails. She is also a trivia enthusiast and a member of a local powerhouse superteam.

How we use this information
We use the information we collect in order to respond to inquiries or in aggregate. Our Clients may use data in other ways and you should refer to their individual privacy policies.
How we use cookies, and similar technologies
We (and third parties that provide content, advertising, or functionality on our Site) may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to facilitate Site administration and navigation, to better understand and improve our Site, to determine and improve the advertising shown to you here or elsewhere, and to provide you with a rich online experience. We provide more details about these technologies below.
General descriptions of "cookies" and "web beacons"
"Cookies" are small files that are placed on your computer or device when you visit a website. Cookies may be used to store a unique identification number tied to your computer or device so that you can be recognized as the same user across one or more browsing sessions, and across one or more sites.
Some cookies are essential in order to enable you to move around our Site and use its features, such as accessing secured areas. Other cookies collect information about how visitors use the Site (for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages).
When combined with information collected when you register on a website, cookies allow us to welcome you back to the site or otherwise provide enhanced, more personal features. Cookies may also be used on our behalf by third parties managing our advertising on other websites to enable us to learn which advertisements bring visitors to our Sites and to otherwise improve or target our online advertising.
Most browsers accept cookies automatically but can be configured not to do so or to notify the user when a cookie is being sent. If you wish to disable cookies, refer to your browser help menu to learn how to disable cookies. Please note that if you disable cookies, you may be unable to access some customized features on our Site.
"Web beacons" and similar technologies are tiny or transparent images that, for example, allow us and third parties to count the number of users who have visited a particular web page or to access certain cookies. When you access a page containing a beacon, you establish a communication with a web server, which collects certain information about your computer or device. This information may include your IP address, browser type, operating system type, and identifiers that have been stored in cookies. We may use beacons on our sites to count the number of visitors to our sites and to recognize users by accessing unique identifiers stored in cookies that we have set on their computers or devices. Being able to access these identifiers enables us to provide a personalized experience on our sites.
Please be aware that the opt-out process is itself cookie-based. In other words, if you opt out, a cookie is placed on your browser that informs these third parties that they are not to use cookies with you for online behavioral advertising. As a result, if you subsequently clear cookies from your browser (as many people do periodically), your opt out will be lost until you reinstate it.
In addition, depending on the browser or device you use, we (and the third parties that provide content, advertising or functionality on our sites) may receive a identifier for your browser device that can be used for purposes similar to those for which we and others use cookies and beacons. The identifiers are not created by the services you access, but rather by the companies that make the software that runs your device or browser. For example, if you access our Site using your iPhone, we may receive a temporary device identifier called the “Identifier for Advertisers” (or "IDFA"). In your iPhone's privacy settings, you can "reset" this identifier, which means that a different identifier will be sent the next time you visit our Site.
How we may share information with others
We do not share the information we collect. However, our Clients might share their data with us and others and you should read their Privacy Policies.
Additional details
One of the third parties that provides services on our Site is Google Inc. Like many websites, we use Google Analytics, a service that provides information about how many users visit our Site, when they visit, and how they navigate the Site once they are here. Google offers a browser add-on that enables users to opt-out of having data about their visits reported to websites by Google Analytics. More information about the add-on is here.
We also may use other Google Analytics tools, such as Demographics and Interest Reporting, which enables us to learn more about the characteristics and interests of the users who visit our Site, and Remarketing with Google Analytics, which enables us to provide relevant advertising on different websites and online services. You can opt out of having your data used for these additional Google Analytics tools by visiting this page and opting out of ads provided by Google.
Links to other sites
Our Site may contain links to the sites of our Clients, and to sites that are owned and operated by third parties. These other sites may have their own privacy policies and are not governed by this Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security protections, or the content of sites owned and operated by third parties. Other sites may collect and treat information collected differently, so we encourage you to carefully read and review the privacy policy for each site you visit.
Children's privacy
This Site is not directed to children and we will not request any information from children under 13 at this Site. We do not have other sites that are geared in whole or in part to a child audience. Our commitment to the privacy of children is described more fully in the privacy policies of those sites. We take special care to protect the privacy of children under the age of 13. We have developed our child privacy practices to comply with Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 ("COPPA") as well as the guidelines established by the Children’s Advertising Review Unit (CARU). We also recommend that parents monitor their children’s Internet activities and learn and employ software or other tools that can help their children enjoy the fun and entertainment of an online experience without compromising their personal safety or allowing them to use the Internet in a manner inconsistent with their parents’ preferences.

This Site is intended for use by residents of the United States of America only. All matters relating to this Site are governed by the laws of the United States. If you are located outside of the United States and you contact us, please be advised that any information you provide to us will be transferred to the United States and that by submitting information you explicitly authorize this transfer and the processing of this information within the United States.
CPPA and GDPR
We conform to both of these laws and should at any time you wish to see the data we have stored on you and then to delete that data, please contact info @ juicyorange dot com.
Changes to our privacy policy
We may change or replace this Privacy Policy at our sole discretion at any time. Please check back from time to time to ensure that you are aware of any updates or changes in this Privacy Policy.

Your control over your information; Exercising your rights and choices
Your control over your information
You always have the right to review and update the information that you previously provided to us at this Site. You may contact us as described in the "How to contact us and how to exercise your privacy rights" section below.
Depending on the laws of your jurisdiction, you may also be entitled to request further transparency about our data processing practices, or access to, or deletion of, the personal information we collect about you. Requests should be submitted to us as described in the "How to contact us and how to exercise your privacy rights" section below. Once we receive your request, we may verify it by requesting information sufficient to confirm your identity. If you would like to use an agent to exercise your rights and that is authorized by the relevant laws, we may request evidence that you have provided such agent with power of attorney or that the agent otherwise has valid written authority to submit requests to exercise rights on your behalf. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights or choices, although some of the functionality and features available on the Sites may change or no longer be available to you. Any difference in the Sites will be related to the value of the information that is no longer available to us or usable by us.
Do not "sell"; cookie "opt out" choices
As described in detail above (under the heading “How we use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies”), third parties use a variety of cookies and similar technologies to collect information on our Sites for the business purposes described above, including providing analytics services to us. Some commentators consider the presence of third-party cookies used for online behavioral advertising as a “sale” of personal information to those third parties for purposes of certain state laws. Except to the extent that this third-party activity may be understood as a “sale” of personal information, we otherwise do not share your information in ways that we treat as a sale of personal information to third parties for purposes of relevant state laws. We offer you the opportunity to opt out of third-party use of cookies and similar technologies for online behavioral advertising by contacting us.
