Effective Date: June 3, 2025
At ThisIsExcitingg, I am committed to protecting your privacy. This policy outlines how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you purchase an item from my shop or contact me through Etsy.com.
1. Information I Collect
To fulfill your order, I collect certain information (as provided by Etsy), including:
• Your name
• Email address
• Postal address
• Payment information (processed securely via Etsy)
• Details of the product you’re ordering
You may also choose to provide additional personal information (e.g., for custom orders) by contacting me directly.
2. Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It
I rely on several legal bases to collect and use your information:
• To fulfill your order: I use your information to provide my services, such as processing payments, shipping orders, and offering customer support.
• Legal obligations: I may retain your information to comply with legal and tax requirements.
• Consent: For purposes like marketing, I will obtain your explicit consent before using your information.
3. Information Sharing and Disclosure
I share your personal information only when necessary:
• Etsy: I share information with Etsy as required to provide my services and comply with Etsy’s policies.
• Service providers: I engage trusted third parties (e.g., delivery services) to perform functions necessary to operate my shop. I share your information with these third parties only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
• Legal compliance: I may disclose your information if required by law or in response to legal processes.
