Geek HQ Vinyls Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 4/13/2023

At Geek HQ Vinyls, we take your privacy very seriously. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect the personal information you provide when you interact with our Etsy shop. By using our Etsy shop, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

To fulfill your order, you must provide certain information to us through Etsy, such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you are ordering. You may also choose to provide additional personal information (for a custom order, for example) if you contact us directly.

How We Use Your Information

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

As needed to provide our services, such as when we use your information to fulfill your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support.

When you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for our mailing list.

If necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order, or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law.

As necessary for the purpose of our legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as providing and improving our services. We use your information to provide the services you requested and in our legitimate interest to improve our services.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

We respect your privacy and share your personal information only for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:

Etsy: We share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you with our services and comply with our obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.

Service providers: We engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to our shop, such as delivery companies. We will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.

Business transfers: If we sell or merge our business, we may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.

Compliance with laws: We may collect, use, retain, and share your information if we have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or government requests; (b) enforce our agreements, terms, and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of our customers or others.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with our services and as described in our Privacy Policy. However, we may also be required to retain this information to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. We generally keep your data for the following time period: 7 years.

Your Rights

If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases:

Access: You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you by contacting us using the contact information below.

Change, restrict, delete: You may also have rights to change, restrict our use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (such as where we are required to store data for legal reasons), we will generally delete your personal information upon request.

Object: You can object to (a) our processing of some of your information based on our legitimate interests and (b) receiving marketing messages from us after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, we will delete your personal information unless we have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.

Complain: If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about our 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.
