Information I Collect
To fulfill your order, Etsy provides me with certain personal information 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 shirt order, for example) if you contact me directly.
Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It
I may collect, use, and share your information for a number of legal reasons, including:
1) To provide you (my customer) with the services you requested, such as fulfilling your order, settling disputes, or providing you with my customer support;
2) For additional services for which you have provided your affirmative consent (which you may revoke at any time) such as signing up for my mailing list;
3) If necessary, to comply with legal obligations or court orders or in connection with legal claims, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
4) As necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as;
a) 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
b) 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 would only share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
1) To Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you with my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
2) Service providers. I do engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as print shops. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
3) 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.
4)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) to 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 this 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 will generally keep your data for a period of 4 years.
Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU
As a US-based business, I will be storing and processing your information in the US and possibly in other jurisdictions as well. If necessary, 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, as Google Cloud is Privacy Shield certified.
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 the right 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; a) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and b) 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.
