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 policy complies with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).

1. Information I Collect
To fulfill your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide), such as:

Your name

Email address

Postal address

Payment information (processed securely by Etsy or its payment providers)

Details of the product you’re ordering

You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (e.g., for a custom order) by contacting me directly.

2. Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It
I rely on several legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:

To fulfill your order and provide customer support

When you have provided your consent (e.g., to receive updates)

If necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order

To comply with Etsy's Seller Policy and Terms of Use

3. Information Sharing and Disclosure
I only share your personal information for very limited reasons and circumstances:

Etsy: I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with Etsy policies.

Service Providers: I may engage trusted third parties (e.g., delivery services) to perform functions and services to my shop.

Compliance with Laws: I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if required to respond to legal process or government requests.

4. Data Retention
I retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in this policy.
I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and tax obligations (typically 6 years for UK/EU tax laws).

5. Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU/UK
I may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. In such cases, I rely on standard contractual clauses and other legally accepted mechanisms to ensure lawful data transfers.

6. Your Rights (Under GDPR)
If you reside in the EU or UK, you have the right to:

Access the personal data I hold about you

Request correction or deletion of your data

Object to or restrict how I process your data

Complain to your local data protection authority
