PRIVACY POLICY
This Privacy Policy describes how and when personal information is collected, used and shared or not shared when you purchase an item from me on my Shopify store. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control, including Shopify,
Personal Information
To fulfil 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 that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order of cover art, for example), if you contact me directly.
Why I Need and How I Use This Personal Information
I rely on this information:
- to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support.
- 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 Shopify Store Seller Policy and Terms of Use.
- to provide announcements of new listings if/when you sign up for my mailing list. You may opt out or unsubscribe at any time.
- if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, should one arise for any reason, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
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:
- With my production print partner to produce and ship your order to your correct location, which is needed at checkout to deliver the order to you.
- With Shopify & PayPal as authorized by you when buying on my Shopify Store and only the data necessary to complete the purchase.
- Service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as email newsletters and postal delivery companies. I will only share your personal information with these third parties, in order for them to perform these services such as print-on-demand and order fulfillment and 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.
Data 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 keep your data for the following time period: 4 years.
GDPR requires I disclose to you how I transfer personal information outside of the EU and the legal bases I rely on to do so, such as consent and contractual necessity. I use a third-party print-on-demand service who handles my order fulfillment and shipping within the United States and Internationally. I also use Shopify for my website orders and fulfillment, which also sends orders directly to my third-party print-on-demand service. My website is registered with GDPR and implements their privacy policy. My intent is to do my best to protect your personal information.
Third-party print-on-demand and Website:
In order to fulfill your order, I may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction. If I am deemed to transfer information about you outside of the EU, I rely on a few select and reputable print on demand service partners and my website host.
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.
- Complaints - 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.
