This is the privacy notice of My Pretty Week. In this document, "we", "our", or "us" refer to My Pretty Week and MPWBookmarks.
Introduction
1. This is a notice to inform you of our policy about all information that we record about you. It sets out the conditions under which we may process any information that we collect from you, or that you provide to us. It covers information that could identify you (“personal information”) and information that could not. In the context of the law and this notice, “process” means collect, store, transfer, use or otherwise act on information. This privacy policy is specific to My Pretty Week and is in addition to any privacy policy you may have agreed to in using Etsy’s website.
2. We take seriously the protection of your privacy and confidentiality. We understand that all visitors to our website are entitled to know that their personal data will not be used for any purpose unintended by them and will not accidentally fall into the hands of a third party.
3. We undertake to preserve the confidentiality of all information you provide to us, and hope that you reciprocate.
4. Our policy complies with UK law accordingly implemented, including that required by the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
5. The law requires us to tell you about your rights and our obligations to you in regard to the processing and control of your personal data. We do this now, by requesting that you read the information provided at www.knowyourprivacyrights.org
6. Except as set out below, we do not share, or sell, or disclose to a third party, any information collected through our website.
The bases on which we process information about you
The law requires us to determine under which of six defined bases we process different categories of your personal information, and to notify you of the basis for each category.
If a basis on which we process your personal information is no longer relevant, then we shall immediately stop processing your data.
If the basis changes then if required by law, we shall notify you of the change and of any new basis under which we have determined that we can continue to process your information.
1. Information we process because we have a contractual obligation with you.
When you buy a product or service from us, or otherwise agree to our terms and conditions, a contract is formed between you and us.
So that we can carry out our obligations under that contract we must process the information you give us. Some of this information may be personal information.
We may use it in order to:
1.1. verify your identity or confirm your shipping address
1.2. sell products to you
1.3. provide you with our services (such as posting your order to the address provided to us).
We process this information on the basis there is a contract between us, or that you have requested we use the information before we enter into a legal contract.
We shall continue to process this information until the contract between us ends or is terminated by either party under the terms of the contract.
2. Information we process with your consent
Through certain actions when otherwise there is no contractual relationship between us, such as when you browse our website or ask us to provide you more information about our business, including our products and services, you provide your consent to us to process information that may be personal information.
Sometimes you might give your consent implicitly, such as when you send us a message by e-mail to which you would reasonably expect us to reply.
Except where you have consented to our use of your information for a specific purpose, we do not use your information in any way that would identify you personally.
We continue to process your information on this basis until you withdraw your consent, or it can be reasonably assumed that your consent no longer exists.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by instructing us at customer.service@myprettyweek.com. However, if you do so, you may not be able to use our services further.
3. Information we process because we have a legal obligation
We are subject to the law like everyone else. Sometimes, we must process your information in order to comply with a statutory obligation or for the purposes of taxation.
For example, we may be required to give information to legal authorities if they so request or if they have the proper authorisation such as a search warrant or court order.
This may include your personal information.
Specific uses of information you provide to us
4. Information sent to third parties.
4.1. My Pretty Week uses Royal Mail’s click and drop service to print shipping labels. Your address information is securely transmitted to the click and drop portal via Etsy.
4.2. If your order is to be sent via courier, your name and address information will be passed on to the courier company.
4.3. We will never pass on or otherwise send your information to third purposes for marketing purposes (including signing you up to mailing lists) without your consent.
5. Information relating to your method of payment
Payment information is never taken by us or transferred to us either through our website or otherwise. My Pretty Week never has access to it.
6. Sending a customer service message to us
When you contact us, whether by telephone, through the Etsy conversation system or by e-mail, we collect the data you have given to us in order to reply with the information you need.
We keep personally identifiable information associated with your message, such as your name and email address so as to be able to track our communications with you to provide a high-quality service.
7. Complaining
When we receive a complaint, we record all the information you have given to us.
We use that information to resolve your complaint.
If your complaint reasonably requires us to contact some other person or organisation (such as Royal Mail if your complaint is with regards to an order that has not arrived, or has arrived damaged), we may decide to give to that other person some of the information contained in your complaint. We do this as infrequently as possible, but it is a matter for our sole discretion as to whether we do give information, and if we do, what that information is.
We may also compile statistics showing information obtained from this source to assess the level of service we provide, but not in a way that could identify you or any other person.
Disclosure and sharing of your information
8. Information we obtain from third parties
Although we do not disclose your personal information to any third party (except as set out in this notice), we sometimes receive data that is indirectly made up from your personal information from third parties whose services we use.
We also receive your contact information when you place an order with us or contact us via Etsy conversations or email.
9. Data may be processed outside the European Union
My Pretty Week is based in the UK.
We may also use outsourced services in countries outside the European Union from time to time in other aspects of our business.
Accordingly data obtained within the UK or any other country could be processed outside the European Union.
For example, some of the software we use for administrative or data storage purposes may have been developed in the United States of America or in Australia.
We use the following safeguards with respect to data
transferred outside the European Union:
9.1. the data protection clauses in our contracts with data processors include transfer clauses written by or approved by a supervisory authority in the European Union.

You may also wish to contact Etsy support to have your data removed from the site.
