This Privacy 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 review the Etsy Privacy Policy to learn more about its privacy practices.

Details of the product you are ordering

You may also choose to provide additional personal information (for example, for a custom or personalized order) if you contact me directly.

Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It

I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:

To provide my services, such as using your information to fulfill your order, process payments, handle returns, settle disputes, and provide customer support.

To comply with legal obligations, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax laws or other regulations.

For legitimate interests, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights or interests. These include:

Improving and optimizing my shop and customer experience.

Ensuring compliance with Etsy’s Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information only for limited reasons and under limited circumstances, as follows:

Etsy – I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you with my services and comply with my obligations under Etsy’s Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Service providers – I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as payment processors or delivery companies. I will 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 have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to:

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.

However, I may also retain this information to comply with legal and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce my agreements. I generally retain customer data for up to 4 years, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU

Your information may be stored and processed through third-party hosting services located in the United States or other jurisdictions.

If I transfer personal information outside of the European Union, I rely on appropriate safeguards recognized under data protection laws, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or other lawful transfer mechanisms where applicable.
