Short version: we only collect what's needed to take your payment and deliver the file. Stripe handles the card. We never sell your details.

- Card details, handled entirely by Stripe (PCI-DSS Level 1). We never see them and never store them.
- Anonymous server logs, IP address, page visited, referrer, timestamp. Kept for 30 days for security and to count Pinterest clicks. Not joined to your purchase.
- Email you send us, the message and your address, kept while we're talking to you plus six years for HMRC records (UK record-keeping requirement).
What we do NOT do
- No analytics scripts, no Google Analytics, no Facebook pixel, no third-party trackers.

- We do not sell, rent, or share your details with any third party for marketing.
Who else sees your data
- Stripe, to process your payment. Stripe privacy.
- Namecheap PrivateEmail, hosts our hello@ mailbox, so they store the email you send us. Namecheap privacy.
