About Induku

Sales 967
On Etsy since 2015
  • One of the first projects in an almost empty workshop.
  •  
  • Sometimes everything is arranged neatly prior to construction.
  • Sometimes I find someone has "helped" in the workshop.

Just need to make stuff.

Making stuff has always been part of my life. Even as a kid I enjoyed making my own toys from things that I could find in and around the house. I spent hours filling a small suitcase with folded paper toys, intricate bent wires and miscellaneous scraps that I made and treasured. I remember some of my prized items included a ship in a bottle where the bottle measured only 2cm and a paper and clay ostrich marionette. I do not think that I ever played much with anything I made or other toys but I got great pleasure from making things.
When starting a new project I tend to get very excited. I spend a lot of time thinking about all the steps while not in the shop. I also tend to read quite a bit about similar items and the techniques used to make these. I find that a whole world exist for most things with an endless amount of literature, methods, variations for making them. I usually feel that I would never be an expert in any one field since I like to try and make many different things. This also means that most of the things I make are unique. If I repeat any type of item the design is usually different and have said many times that I will avoid, as far possible, making more than 4 items that are the same.
Recently I also started to bind books. I love working with paper and combining this with wooden covers that I make on the scroll saw. I also needed to make some of my own tools to do bookbinding and using them is quite nice. I will surely make more books bound in different ways. In one of the books I made I have started to write the ideas that I have of things to make and I do not think that there is enough time for a small fraction of these. I am thus not sure which item will inspire me to go into the shop tomorrow and how the shop will look in a few months. It will most likely be something made from wood, on a scroll saw or laser cutter and with quite a bit of detail.

Welcome to Induku. The name Induku means stick in Zulu and this is what many of the items are made of. The rest includes some wood element and almost all are hand cut with a scroll saw. I am more than happy to accept requests for customized items and will work with the buyer to design an item to unique specifications. I like to make unique items and avoid making many of the same product.

Privacy
This Privacy Policy describes how and when I collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from me, contact me, or otherwise use my services through Etsy.com or its related sites and services.
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 reference the Etsy Privacy Policy to learn more about its privacy practices.
Information I Collect
To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorised Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order for example), 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:
- as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil 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 my 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; and
- as necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Information Sharing and Disclosure
Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
- Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
- Service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery companies. 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, only to the extent permitted by law.
- 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: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce my 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 my customers, or others.

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. However, I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce my agreements. I generally keep your data for the following time period: 4 years.
Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU
I do not store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions.
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. I describe these rights below:
- Access. You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you by contacting me using the contact information below.
- Change, restrict, delete. You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (like where I am required to store data for legal reasons) I will generally delete your personal information upon request.
- Object. You can object to (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from me after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, I will delete your personal information unless I 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 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.


For purposes of EU data protection law, I, Ronald Nelson, am the data controller of your personal information. If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact me at ronald [!at] indukudesign.com. Alternately, you may mail me at:
