**GDPR Privacy Policy for BairElements

Effective Date: January 1, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how and when Etsy, collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from my Etsy shop, contact me, or otherwise use my services through Etsy.com or its related sites and services.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control, including Etsy or any third-party services you access through Etsy. You can reference the Etsy Privacy Policy to learn more about its privacy practices.

**Information I Collect**
To fulfill your order, you must provide certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide to me), such as:
- Your name
- Email address
- Postal address
- Payment information (excluding full credit card details, which are handled by Etsy)
- The details of the product you’re ordering
- Optional information you provide (e.g., for custom orders)

**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, such as when I use your information to fulfill your order, resolve disputes, or provide customer support.
- When you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time (e.g., signing up for a mailing list).
- 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 my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as:
- Providing and improving my services.
- Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

**Information Sharing and Disclosure**
I 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 with my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
- **Service Providers:** I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services (e.g., delivery companies). I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
- **Compliance with Laws:** I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I believe it is reasonably necessary to:
- Respond to legal process or government requests.
- Enforce my agreements, terms, and policies.
- Prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues.

**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, resolve disputes, and enforce my agreements. I generally keep your data for the following time period: 7 years.

**Your Rights**
If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have several rights related to your personal information, including:

1. **Access:** You have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you by contacting me using the contact details below.
2. **Change, Restrict, Delete:** You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information, except where I am required to store data for legal reasons.
3. **Object:** You can object to:
- My processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests.
- 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 legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.
4. **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, Etsy, am the data controller of your personal information. If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact me at bairelements@gmail.com.

If you have concerns about Etsy’s handling of your data, you should direct your inquiries to Etsy as outlined in their Privacy Policy.
