What personal data we collect

We collect only the personal data that you voluntarily provide to us through our contact form or by email. This may include:

• Your name
• Your email address
• The content of your message or inquiry

We do not collect or process payment data on this Website. All product purchases are handled externally through the Etsy platform, which operates under its own privacy policy and terms of service.

When you visit our Website, our hosting provider and third-party services (such as Google Fonts) may automatically process technical data including your IP address, browser type, and device information. See our Cookie Policy for further details.

Legal basis for processing

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Spanish data protection law, we process your personal data on the following legal bases:

• Consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR): when you submit a contact form or send us an email, you consent to us processing your data to respond to your inquiry.
• Legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR): we may process technical data necessary to operate, secure, and improve the Website, provided such interests are not overridden by your rights.

How we use your data

We use your personal data solely to:

• Respond to your inquiries and communications

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling.

Data retention

We retain contact form submissions and email correspondence for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which the data was collected, and for a maximum of three (3) years from the date of your last communication, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

Technical log data processed by our hosting provider is retained according to their own policies, typically for a short period necessary for security and diagnostics.
