These privacy policies describe how I collect, use, and share information, and when, when you place an order with me or use my services through Etsy.com or related sites and services.

These rules do not apply to third-party practices that I do not own or control, including Etsy or any third-party services that you can access through Etsy. You can read Etsy's Privacy Policy for more information about the site's practices in this regard.

The information I collect:

To process your order, you must provide me with certain information (that you have authorized Etsy to transmit to me), including your name, email address, postal address, payment details, as well as the description of the product you order. You can also decide to give me some additional personal information, by contacting 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:
to provide you with my services, such as when I use your information to process your order, resolve a dispute or provide customer service; when you gave me your explicit consent, which you can revoke at any time, for example by subscribing to my newsletter;
if necessary, to meet a legal obligation, a legal judgment or in connection with a request for justice such as the fact of keeping information about your purchases within the framework of the tax legislation; and
if necessary, to serve my legitimate interests, in the event that these legitimate interests are not invalidated by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you have asked me for and in my legitimate interest to improve these services; and 2) compliance with Etsy's Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information, if necessary, to comply with my obligations under Etsy's Seller Policy and Terms of Service.

Service providers. I use certain third parties I trust to perform certain actions or provide certain services for my shop - for example, transport companies. I may have to share your personal information with these third parties, but only those that are essential to the performance of these services.
