Privacy Policy Northstartee

This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, and share your personal information when you purchase an item from my shop on Etsy or directly through me.



1. Personal Information I Collect

To fulfill your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you are ordering.

2. The Legal Basis for Using Your Information

I rely on a number of legal bases to use and process your information:

To Fulfill Your Order: I use your information as necessary to process your order, communicate with you about your transaction, and deliver your goods.

For Legal Compliance: I retain and use your information as required to comply with my legal obligations, such as tax laws and regulatory requirements (e.g., keeping records of sales).

For Legitimate Business Interests: Where necessary, I use your information to pursue my legitimate interests, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights (such as improving my services in accordance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use).

3. Information Sharing and Disclosure

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

Etsy: I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide my services and comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Service Providers: I engage trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as shipping companies and my print provider/fulfillment partner. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.

Business Transfers: If I sell or merge my business, I may disclose your information as part of that transaction, but only to the extent permitted by law.

Legal Compliance: I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or government requests; (b) enforce my agreements, terms, and policies; or (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud or other illegal activity.

4. Data Retention

I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in my Privacy Policy. This period is typically 4 years to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations.

5. Your Rights as an EU Buyer (GDPR)

If you reside in the European Union (EU) and I hold your personal information, you have the following rights:

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

Change, Restrict, Delete: You may have the rights to change, restrict my use of, or request to delete your personal information.

Complain: You have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority if you have concerns about my processing of your data.
