Privacy & Safety
Your privacy is very important. I will not sell or rent your personal information. I will only use your personal information in limited circumstances, such as to conduct our business or when legally required.
​
I strongly urge you to read this policy and make sure you fully understand it, before you access or use any of the services. If you read and fully understand this Privacy Policy, and remain opposed to the practices, you must immediately leave this website, application or service, and avoid or discontinue all use of any of the Services.
What Information I Collect and How I Use It
To fulfill your order, you must provide me with certain information such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information and the details of the product you are ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional information, such as for a custom item, if you contact me directly.
​
I rely on a number of legal bases for collecting personal information such as:
​
-
where needed to provide my services such as the information necessary to fulfill your order, settle disputes or to provide customer support.
-
if necessary, to comply with a legal obligation or a court order or in connection with a legal claim such as retaining information about your purchase if required by tax law.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
​
-
Service providers. I use certain trusted third parties to provide services to my shop such as delivery companies. I will share your information with these parties , but only to the extent necessary to provide these services.

​
-
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: 1) to respond to a legal process or a government request. 2) enforce my agreements, terms and policies. 3) prevent, investigate or address fraud and other illegal activity, security or technical issues. 4) protect the rights, property and safety of my customers or others.
Data Retention
I retain your information only as long as necessary to provide you with service as described in my Policies. 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 keep your data for the following period of time: 4 years.

Object. You can object to 1) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and 2) 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.
