This Privacy Policy describes how and when I collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from my shop, contact me, or otherwise use my services through Etsy.com or its related sites and services.

This policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control, including Etsy or any third-party services you access through Etsy. You can learn more about Etsy’s own privacy practices in the Etsy Privacy Policy.

1. Information I Collect
To fulfill your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide), such as:

- Your name
- Email address
- Postal address (if applicable)
- Payment information (which is processed securely through Etsy)
- Details of the product you are ordering

You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information if you contact me directly.

2. Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It
I rely on several legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:

- As needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfill your order, provide customer support, or resolve disputes
- If you have given your affirmative consent (e.g. by joining a mailing list), which you may revoke at any time
- To comply with legal obligations, such as retaining purchase records for tax purposes
- As necessary for my legitimate interests, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as improving my services and ensuring Etsy policy compliance

3. Information Sharing and Disclosure
I only share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, including:

- Etsy: As required to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use
- Service Providers: I may engage trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop (e.g., cloud storage), but only to the extent necessary
- Business Transfers: If I sell or merge my business, your information may be disclosed as part of that transaction, only as permitted by law
- Legal Compliance: I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if legally required, such as responding to legal requests or enforcing my policies

4. Data Retention
I retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide you with my services and comply with legal obligations. Typically, I retain data for four (4) years. After this period, I securely delete or anonymize personal information that is no longer needed.

5. Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU
I may store and process your information through third-party services (e.g., cloud storage or email tools) located outside the EU. When I do so, I rely on legal mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses or the third party’s Privacy Shield certification (where applicable) to ensure adequate protection of your personal data.

6. Your Rights
If you reside in the EU or other jurisdictions with similar regulations, you have the right to:

- Access the personal information I hold about you
- Request corrections, restrictions, or deletion of your information
- Object to my use of your information
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

You may contact me at any time via Etsy messaging if you have questions, requests, or concerns related to your personal information or this policy.
