Privacy Policy for ForgeThreadCompany

1. Information I Collect
To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide), such as:
• Your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and details of the product you’re ordering.
• You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order, for example).
2. 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:
• As needed to provide my services, such as fulfilling your order, resolving disputes, or providing customer support.
• When you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time.
• If necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order.
• For my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as providing and improving my services.
3. Information Sharing and Disclosure
I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances:
• Etsy: I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
• Service Providers: I engage certain trusted third parties (such as delivery companies) to perform functions and provide services to my shop. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
• Legal Compliance: I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: respond to legal process or government requests; enforce my agreements, terms, and policies; prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity; or protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.
4. 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 and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. I generally keep your data for 7 years (to comply with tax and accounting laws).
5. Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU
I may store and process your information through third party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. As a result, I may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction. If I am deemed to transfer information about you outside of the EU, I rely on Privacy Shield as the legal basis for the transfer.
6. Your Rights (GDPR)
If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information:
• The right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you.
• The right to rectify or update your personal information.
• The right to request deletion of your personal information.
• The right to restrict or object to my processing of your data.
• The right to data portability.
You may exercise these rights by contacting me at: geldblom77@gmail.com.
7. How to Contact Me
For purposes of EU data protection law, I, Corne Gelderblom, am the data controller of your personal information. If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact me at geldblom77@gmail.com.
If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about my use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority.
