Privacy policy
This Privacy Policy describes how and when I collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from me, contact me, or otherwise use my services through Etsy.com or its related sites and services.
Please note: this Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of any third parties that I do not own or control, including Etsy, or any third party services you access through Etsy.
Information I Collect:
To fulfill your order upon purchase, you must provide me with certain information, which you authorized Etsy to provide to me, such as your name, email address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information if you contact me directly. I do not personally store any information provided to me, neither digitally or physically. All personal information provided to me upon customer purchase or contact will only be stored on the Etsy.com website platform.
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 on a case by case basis, such as when I use your information to fulfill your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
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;
as necessary for the purpose of my legitimate business interests, if those legitimate interests are not in conflict of your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested; 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.
Information Sharing and Disclosure:
Information about my customers is important to my business. I respect your privacy, as my customer, and will never share your information unless obligated to, whether legally or with Etsy. I will only share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
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.
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 do not retain any information personally for my records. Any and all personal information provided by my customers is stored solely on the Etsy platform. For more information on this, please see the Official Etsy Privacy Policy Here: https://www.etsy.com/legal/privacy/
Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU:
I do not transfer personal information through any third party hosting services. All information is solely kept on the Etsy platform, unless required to be disclosed by legal obligation.
Your Rights:
If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you do have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in specific 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. 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.
How to Contact Me:
For purposes of EU data protection law, I, Shirley Beachler, am the data controller of your personal information. If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact me at shirleybeachler@gmail.com.
