This Privacy Policy describes how and when Kris collects, uses, and shares information when you purchase an item from her, contact her, or otherwise use her services through Etsy.com or its related sites and services. This Privacy Policy is GDPR compliant.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that Kris does 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.

----- Customer's Personal Information

Kris uses information collected by Etsy.com from sellers and buyers, using it only to fulfill orders. NO information is shared with third parties. This information is stored only by Etsy, and Kris has access to it as long as Etsy leaves it available.

Kris also uses information, specifically an Etsy user's contact email, to offer a 15% coupon to use in her shop, ONLY to those who have favorited one of her items. When a customer purchases from Kris, she will often send a 20% coupon to that buyer.

----- Information Kris Uses is That Which Etsy Collects

To fulfill your order, you must provide Kris with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide to her), 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 Kris with additional personal information (for a custom order or gift, for example) within the order or by contacting Kris directly via Etsy.

----- The Legal Bases to Collect, Use, and Share personal information

The GDPR requires that Kris explain the legal bases on which she relies on to collect, use, and share personal information. The legal bases includes a buyer’s affirmative consent to receive purchased goods, compliance with legal obligations, and a seller’s use of the personal information in their legitimate interests (improving their products and services, for example).

----- Why Kris Needs Your Information and How It is Used

Kris relies on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share customer information, including:
- As needed to provide services, such as when Kris uses buyer information to fulfill your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support
- When customer has provided affirmative consent, which may be revoked at any time, such as by signing up for a mailing list, which currently does not exist.
- When necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about customer purchases if required by tax law
- As necessary for the purpose of Kris' legitimate business interests, if those business interests are not overridden by customer rights or interests
- For providing and improving Kris Kramer Design aka The Silver Pendant services, Kris may use your information to provide the product or service the customer requested and in the legitimate interest to improve services
- For compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use
- As needed and necessary to comply with obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use

----- No Information is Shared with Third Party or Parties at this time or in the future

The GDPR requires Kris to disclose the period of time during which customer information is stored; however, Kris retains no information other than what is stored on Etsy. Kris uses this information only for as long as necessary to provide customer with business products as described in this Privacy Policy. Kris may be required to refer back to this Etsy information to comply with legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce agreements.
