Privacy Policy

Last updated: 02.20.25

Protecting your privacy is very important to me. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, and protect your personal information when you purchase from my store, contact me, or interact with my content.

Information I Collect

To fulfill your order, I collect certain information provided by you to Etsy, including:

- Your name

- Email address

- Shipping address

- Payment information (processed securely by Etsy)

- Details about the product you’re ordering

- You may also provide me with additional personal information (e.g., for custom orders) if you contact me directly.

Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It:

I rely on several legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:

- To provide my services, such as fulfilling your order, settling disputes, or providing customer support

- When you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time

- To comply with a legal obligation or court order, such as retaining information about purchases for tax purposes

- As necessary for my legitimate interests, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights, such as improving my services

Information Sharing and Disclosure

I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, including:

- Etsy: I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you with my services and comply with their Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Service Providers: I engage certain trusted third parties (e.g., delivery services) to perform functions and provide services to my shop. I share your personal information with these third parties only to the extent necessary to perform these services.

- Compliance with Laws: I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I believe it is necessary to respond to legal processes, enforce my agreements, or protect my rights.

Data Retention

I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in this Privacy Policy. I may also be required to retain this information to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce my agreements. Typically, your data is retained for 5 years due to tax requirements.

Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU

If you reside in the EU, please note that your information will be transferred outside of Europe, including to the United States. I rely on legal bases to transfer information outside of the EU, such as contracts with third parties.

Your Rights

If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have several rights regarding your personal information:

- Access: You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you.

- Change, Restrict, or Delete: You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information, except when I’m required to store data for legal reasons.

- Object: You can object to my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests.

- Complaint: If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern, you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority.
