This Privacy Policy describes how and when Rebecca J Woods Ceramics collects, uses, and shares information when you purchase an item from us, contact us, or otherwise use our services.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that Rebecca J Woods Ceramics does not own or control - including (but not limited to) Etsy, Paypal and izettle, when or any third party services you access through those providers (see below for further information about how your dealings with Rebecca J Woods Ceramics may result in your data being collected, processed and stored by other providers such as these).

​

Section 1 - Why Do You Need My Information and How Do You Use It?

When you purchase something from our store, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, address, email address and payment details.

When you browse our store, when it is in operation, we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.

Rebecca J Woods Ceramics relies on a number of 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, such as by signing up for our 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; and

as necessary for the purpose of our legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as providing and improving our services.



Section 2 - Consent

How do you get my consent?
When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we infer that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.
If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your express consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

How do I withdraw my consent?
If after you opt-in you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at anytime, by contacting us at rjwceramics@gmail.com

Section 3 - 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:

Service providers. We engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to our shop, such as delivery companies. We will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.

Business transfers. If we sell or merge our business, we may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.

Compliance with laws. We may collect, use, retain, and share your information if we have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce our agreements, terms and policies; (c) 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.

If you violate our Terms of Service.

Cookies

Cookies and other tracking technologies may be placed on your devices by third party services, either when you are visiting their web properties, or if you are visiting the storefront of a merchant who uses their platform to power their site - such as when visiting our Rebecca J Woods Ceramics website. When using our website you agree to this. A cookie is a small amount of information that’s downloaded to your computer or device when you visit certain websites.


Section 4 - Third-party services
In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers. In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation.
