Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 September 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use and protect your personal information when you place an order, contact me, request a quotation, or otherwise interact with my shop.

I am committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information responsibly and in accordance with applicable UK data protection laws, including the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Information I Collect

To fulfil your order or respond to an enquiry, I may receive, collect or store information including:

* Details of the products you have ordered
* Measurements, fabric selections, customisation details and other information required for bespoke orders
* Messages and correspondence between us
* Payment and transaction information provided through the platform or payment provider
* Information required for shipping, customs or international delivery

If you purchase through Etsy or another third-party platform, I receive information from that platform necessary to process and fulfil your order. I do not normally receive or store your full payment card details.

2. Why I Use Your Information

I use your personal information where necessary to:

* Process and fulfil your order

* Arrange delivery or collection
* Provide information to couriers and shipping companies
* Complete customs documentation for international orders
* Deal with returns, repairs, complaints or customer service enquiries

* Protect my business against fraud or misuse

I will only use your information for marketing where I have a lawful basis to do so and, where required, you have given your consent.

3. Sharing Your Information

I only share your personal information where reasonably necessary to operate my business or fulfil your order.

This may include sharing relevant information with:

Only the information reasonably required for the relevant service will be shared.

I do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

Under UK data protection law, I rely on one or more of the following legal bases when processing your personal information:

Contract: Where processing is necessary to provide a quotation, process an order or fulfil my obligations to you.

Legal obligation: Where I am required to retain or disclose information for tax, accounting, customs or other legal purposes.

Legitimate interests: Where necessary for the reasonable operation and protection of my business, provided those interests do not override your rights.

Consent: Where you have specifically consented to a particular use of your information, such as certain marketing communications.

5. How Long I Keep Your Information

I keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with legal, accounting and tax requirements.

Order and transaction records may therefore be retained for several years after an order has been completed.

Information that is no longer required will be securely deleted or disposed of where reasonably practicable.

6. International Orders

If you order from outside the United Kingdom, certain personal information such as your name, address, telephone number and order information may need to be provided to couriers, freight companies, customs authorities or other organisations involved in delivering your order internationally.

Some of these organisations may be located outside the UK.

Depending on the circumstances, UK data protection law gives you rights including the right to:

* Request a copy of your personal information
* Ask for inaccurate information to be corrected
* Ask for certain information to be deleted
* Object to or restrict certain types of processing
* Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
* Request the transfer of certain information to another organisation

Some rights are subject to legal exceptions, including where information must be retained for tax, contractual or legal reasons.

8. Etsy and Other Third-Party Platforms

Where you purchase through Etsy, your personal information is also processed by Etsy in accordance with Etsy’s own privacy policies and terms.

I am not responsible for the privacy practices of Etsy, payment providers, couriers or other independent third-party organisations.

9. Security

I take reasonable steps to protect the personal information entrusted to me and limit access to information to people or service providers who reasonably require it.

However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Children

My products and services are not directed towards children, and I do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children for marketing purposes.

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to my business, services or legal obligations.

The most recent version will be made available through my shop or website.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, wish to exercise your data protection rights, or have concerns about how your information is being handled, please contact me through the shop’s messaging system or using the contact details provided on my website.

You also have the right to raise a concern with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s data protection regulator.
