Additional policies and FAQs
BEADED JEWELLERY- glass beads will last a long time if cared for, but can become scratched over time, chipped or broken if knocked or dropped onto a hard surface, so handling with care and keeping clean by wiping with a soft cloth will help prolong their beauty.
Necklaces that have been strung on beading wire should not be sharply folded- this may cause a permanent bend in the wire causing it to weaken over time and eventually break.
PLATED METAL JEWELLERY - Silver & gold plated items can become quickly tarnished from coming into contact with products such as perfumes, hair products and creams, so to help prevent tarnishing please prevent your jewellery from coming into contact with these harmful products. If they do start to tarnish, buffing with a soft polishing cloth will restore their shine.
*Occasionally plated metal jewellery can tarnish a lot quicker than usual due to skin PH having higher acid levels ( I personally have this issue ) unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about this. I try to avoid wearing silver or gold plate as they tarnish very quickly but have found that the antique metal finishes last a lot longer .*
STORING YOUR JEWELLERY- When not in use, careful storing of jewellery will help prevent damage and tarnishing of metal components . Jewellery should not be worn in the shower, bath or bed or whilst doing activities such as sports. Tarnish is caused from exposure to air and moisture causing a chemical reaction known as oxidisation. The very best way to prevent this is by storing plated metal jewellery in a plastic bag, removing the air first. For most types of jewellery using a jewellery box or jewellery roll kept in a dry place is recommended.

INFORMATION I COLLECT
In order for me to fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorised Etsy to provide to me), 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 order of jewellery, for example), if you contact 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:
as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list;
if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
as necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) 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 2) 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.

Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
Service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery companies. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
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.
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) 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.
INFORMATION RETENTION
I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in my 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 generally will not keep your data for any longer than 6 years as per UK Tax Law requirements.
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 rights 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 (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) 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.
