Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how and when we collect, use, and disclose information when you purchase an item from us, contact us, or otherwise use our services through Etsy.com or its related websites and services.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to third party procedures that are not owned and controlled by us, including Etsy and any third party services that you access through Etsy. You can read more about Etsy's privacy practices in Etsy's Privacy Policy.

What Information We Collect

In order for us to process your order, you must provide us with certain information (for which you have authorized Etsy to provide it to us). This includes your name, email address, postal address, payment information and information about the product you are ordering. You also have the option to provide us with other personal information (for example, for a custom product) when you contact us directly.

Why we need your information and how we use it

We refer to a number of legal bases for collecting, using and disclosing your data. And that is:

to the extent that we need your information to provide our services, for example to process your order, resolve conflicts or provide customer support;
if you have given your express consent (which you can revoke at any time), for example by subscribing to our newsletter mailing list;
if it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order, or in connection with legal claims, such as the need to retain information about your purchases under tax legislation; and
to the extent necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests - unless such legitimate interests are overridden by your rights or interests - such as 1. to provide and improve our services. We use your information to provide the services you have requested from us and in our legitimate interest in improving our services; and 2. to comply with Etsys vendor policy and terms of use. We will use your information as necessary to fulfill our obligations under Etsys Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Disclosure and Disclosure of Information

Customer data is important for our business. We disclose your personal information only for specific reasons and under specific circumstances, as follows:

Etsy: We disclose information to Etsy as necessary to fulfill our obligations under Etsy's Seller Policy and Terms of Use.
Service Providers: We hire certain trusted third parties to perform tasks and provide services for our store, such as parcel services. We will share your personally identifiable information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
Business transfers: If we sell or merge our business with another, I may disclose your information as part of this transaction to the extent permitted by law.
Compliance with Laws: We may collect, use, retain and disclose your information when we believe in good faith that it is appropriate and necessary to: a) respond to legal process or governmental requirements; b) enforce my contracts, terms and policies; c) prevent, investigate and remedy fraud and other illegal activities, security or technical problems; or d) protect the rights, property and safety of my customers or others.

Data Retention

We will only store your personal information for as long as is necessary to provide you with our services and as described in our Privacy Policy. However, we may need to retain this information in order to comply with legal obligations and regulations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. Generally, we will retain your information for the following period: 4 years.

Transfer of Personal Data to Countries Outside the EU

We may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the United States and other countries. Therefore, we may transfer your personal information to countries whose privacy and governmental control laws differ from the laws of your country. If we believe we are transferring information about you to countries outside the EU, we will use the EU-US Privacy Shield as the legal basis for the transfer, as Google Cloud is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield.

Your rights

If you live in certain regions, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data. Some of these rights apply generally and others only in specific cases. These rights are described below:

Access: You may have the right to access and obtain a copy of the personal information we hold about you by writing to us using the contact information below.
Modification, limitation, deletion: You may also be entitled to modify your personal information, limit our use of that information, or delete it. Except in exceptional circumstances (such as when we need to store information for legal reasons), we will generally delete your personal information upon request.
Objection: You may object to 1. us processing some of your information in our legitimate interests and 2. you receiving marketing communications from us after you have expressly consented to this. In such cases, we will delete your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate reasons for its continued use or it is necessary for legal reasons.
Complaint: If you reside in the EU and wish to raise concerns about our use of your data, without prejudice to any other rights you may have, you have the right to raise these concerns with your local data protection authority.
