What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Orders and Customer Accounts

When you place an order, we collect only the information necessary to process and ship your purchase — such as your name, postal address, email address, and phone number.
Your personal data is used exclusively for:

  • processing and delivering your order,
  • communicating with you about your purchase, and
  • fulfilling legal and accounting obligations.

Payments are securely processed by third-party providers (e.g. PayPal or Stripe). I never have access to your full payment card details.

Legal basis for processing:

Legitimate interest (customer service and record keeping).

Contract fulfilment (your order), and record keeping).

Comments

When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, plus the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam.
An anonymised string created from your email (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it.
Gravatar’s privacy policy: https://automattic.com/privacy.
After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible publicly with your comment.
