Privacy

Enquiries: when you use the form on the Work-with-me page I store your name, email, optional company, the service and budget range you picked, and your message, and I receive a copy by email.

Newsletter: if you sign up, I store your email address and where on the site you signed up.

Orders: your name, email, shipping address (for physical items) and what you bought. Payments are handled by Stripe; card details never reach this site.

Digital products: download links are personal, expire after 7 days and allow 5 downloads; I record how often a link was used.

Affiliate links: when you click a link that goes through /go/, I count the click with the referring page (without its query string) and a country code supplied by the hosting provider. IP addresses are not stored.

This site uses a small number of first-party cookies and browser storage: your light/dark theme choice, your language, and the contents of your shopping bag (stored in your browser). There is no advertising or analytics tracking on this site today. [PLACEHOLDER: update this section if analytics are added.]

Stores you visit through an affiliate link (such as Amazon) set their own cookies under their own privacy policies.

Service providers that make the site work: hosting and database [PLACEHOLDER: confirm providers, e.g. Vercel and Neon], email delivery [PLACEHOLDER: e.g. Resend], payments (Stripe) and print-on-demand fulfilment for printed items (Printful receives the name and address needed to ship). Each only gets what it needs for its task.

Anti-spam: the contact and newsletter forms rate-limit by a temporary, salted hash of your IP address held in server memory only; it is never written to the database or logs.

Enquiries and newsletter sign-ups until you ask me to delete them. Order records as long as tax and accounting rules require. [PLACEHOLDER: confirm retention periods.]

You can ask for a copy of your data, a correction, removal from the newsletter or deletion at any time: [PLACEHOLDER: contact email].
