How We Disclose Personal Information

In certain circumstances, we may disclose your personal information to third parties for legitimate purposes subject to this Privacy Policy. Such circumstances may include:

  • With Squarespace, vendors and other third parties who perform services on our behalf (e.g. IT management, payment processing, data analytics, customer support, cloud storage, fulfillment and shipping).

  • With business and marketing partners to provide marketing services and advertise to you. For example, we use Shopify to support personalized advertising with third-party services based on your online activity with different merchants and websites. Our business and marketing partners will use your information in accordance with their own privacy notices. Depending on where you reside, you may have a right to direct us not to share information about you to show you targeted advertisements and marketing based on your online activity with different merchants and websites. You can exercise your rights to opt out of those uses.

  • When you direct, request us, or otherwise consent to our disclosure of certain information to third parties, such as to ship you products or through your use of social media widgets or login integrations.

  • With our affiliates or otherwise within our corporate group.

  • In connection with a business transaction such as a merger or bankruptcy, to comply with any applicable legal obligations (including to respond to subpoenas, search warrants, and similar requests), to enforce any applicable terms of service or policies, and to protect or defend the Services, our rights, and the rights of our users or others.

Relationship with Squarespace

The Services you access, including this website, are hosted by Squarespace, Inc., which is responsible for collecting and processing personal information related to your access to and use of the Services, allowing us to provide and improve our offerings. Information you submit to this website, such as through contact forms or appointment scheduling, will be transmitted to and processed by Squarespace. Squarespace may use this data to provide and enhance the platform's functionality, security, and performance. In these circumstances, Squarespace operates as a separate data processor or, in some cases, a controller of your personal information for platform-related operations. To understand more about how Squarespace uses your personal information, the types of data they collect, and any rights you may have concerning their use of your information, please review the official Squarespace Privacy Policy.

Third Party Websites and Links

The Services may provide links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow links to sites not affiliated or controlled by us, you should review their privacy and security policies and other terms and conditions. We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy or security of such sites, including the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information found on these sites. Information you provide on public or semi-public venues, including information you share on third-party social networking platforms, may also be viewable by other users of the Services and/or users of those third-party platforms without limitation as to its use by us or by a third party. Our inclusion of such links does not, by itself, imply any endorsement of the content on such platforms or of their owners or operators, except as disclosed on the Services.

Children's Data

The Services are not intended to be used by children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information about children under the age of majority in your jurisdiction. If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with their personal information, you may contact us using the contact details set out below to request that it be deleted. As of the Effective Date of this Privacy Policy, we do not have actual knowledge that we "share" or "sell" (as those terms are defined in applicable law) personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.

Security and Retention of Your Information

Please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee "perfect security." In addition, any information you send to us may not be secure while in transit. We recommend that you do not use unsecure channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us.

How long we retain your personal information depends on different factors, such as whether we need the information to maintain your account, to provide you with Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes or enforce other applicable contracts and policies.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you reside, you may have some or all of the rights listed below concerning your personal information, though it is important to remember that these rights are not absolute and may only apply in specific circumstances; in certain cases, we may need to decline a request as permitted by law. You may possess the Right to Access / Know, which allows you to request access to the personal information we hold about you. You may also have the Right to Delete, which means you can request that we remove personal information we maintain about you. If the information we hold is inaccurate, you may have the Right to Correct it. Furthermore, you may have the Right of Portability, allowing you to receive a copy of your personal information and request that we transfer it to a third party, subject to certain conditions and exceptions. Depending on your location, you may also have the Right to Opt out of Sale or Sharing for Targeted Advertising; this allows you to opt out of the "sale" or "share" of your personal information or to opt out of processing it for "targeted advertising" purposes, as defined by applicable privacy laws, and you can exercise this right through designated methods. If you visit our website with the Global Privacy Control opt-out preference signal enabled, we will automatically treat this as a valid opt-out request for the device and browser you are using, and if we are able to associate that device with a Squarespace account, the request will be applied to the account as well. We do not currently recognize other "Do Not Track" signals sent from web browsers or devices other than the Global Privacy Control. Finally, regarding Managing Communication Preferences, we may send you promotional emails, but you always have the option to opt out of these at any time using the unsubscribe link provided in our emails; if you opt out of promotional emails, we may still send you necessary non-promotional communications regarding your account or services you have requested.

You can exercise any of these rights where indicated on this website or by contacting us directly using the contact details provided in the contact section of this policy. We commit to not discriminating against you for exercising any of these rights. Please note that we may need to verify your identity before processing your requests, as required or permitted under applicable law, and we may require an authorized agent making a request on your behalf to provide proof of their authorization, after which we may still need you to verify your identity directly with us. We will respond to all verifiable requests in the timely manner mandated by applicable law.

Complaints

If you have complaints about how we process your personal information, please contact us using the contact details provided below. Depending on where you live, you may have the right to appeal our decision by contacting us using the contact details set out below, or lodge your complaint with your local data protection authority.

International Transfers

Please note that we may transfer, store and process your personal information outside the country you live in.

If we transfer your personal information out of the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we will rely on recognized transfer mechanisms like the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, or any equivalent contracts issued by the relevant competent authority of the UK, as relevant, unless the data transfer is to a country that has been determined to provide an adequate level of protection.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, including to reflect changes to our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will post the revised Privacy Policy on this website, update the "Last updated" date and provide notice as required by applicable law.
