PRIVACY POLICY & GDPR COMPLIANCE

This Privacy Policy describes how and when we collect, use, and share information when you purchase a service from us, contact us, or otherwise use our services through this website (which is hosted by Squarespace) or its related sites and services.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that we do not own or control or any third party services you access through this website.

To fulfil your order, you need to provide us with certain information, such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product and/or services that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide us with additional personal information for certain requirements.

We rely on some legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:

as needed to provide our services, such as when we 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, 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 legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as

providing and improving our services. We use your information to provide the services you requested and in our legitimate interest to improve our services, and compliance with the Squarespace policy and Terms of Use. 

Information sharing and disclosure

Information about our customers is important to our business. We share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:

Business transfers.

We may collect, use, retain, and share your information if we have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to

respond to legal process or to government requests;

enforce our agreements, terms and policies;

prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of our customers or others.

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with our services.
