You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order), if you contact me directly.\n\n\nWhy I Need Your Information and How I Use It.\n\nI rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:\n\n-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;\n\n-when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list;\n\n-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\n\n-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 toimprove 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.\n\nInformation Sharing and Disclosure\n\nInformation about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:\n\n-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.\n\n-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.\n\n-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.\n\n-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.\n\nData Retention\n\nI 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 keep your data for the following time period: 4 years.\n\nYour Rights\n\nIf you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information.
