When you buy something on this website, we collect personal information from you to fulfil the order. We may collect information like your:
Name
Email address
Billing address

Details relating to your purchase
We provide this information to Squarespace, our online store hosting provider, so that they can provide website services to us.
As you go through checkout, this site may auto-complete your billing address by sharing what you type with the Google Places API and returning suggestions to you, to improve your checkout experience.
Our products are digital downloads, so we do not collect or use shipping addresses or share your details with any shipping provider.
7. Payments
When you make a purchase from us on this website, we use Squarespace Payments as our payment solution. Squarespace Payments is a fully integrated payment solution provided to us by our online store service provider, Squarespace.
We do not collect or store your card details ourselves.
Squarespace Payments makes use of the following third-party service providers, which will also receive your personal information and process it in accordance with their privacy policies:

8. Emails we send you
We may email you with messages about your order. For example, we may email you to confirm that you've made a purchase, or to deliver the product you've bought.
It is not possible to unsubscribe from these messages, as they are necessary to fulfil your order.
We provide your contact information to Squarespace, our website hosting provider, so they can send these emails to you on our behalf.
We do not send marketing emails or newsletters. If this changes in future, we will only do so with your explicit consent, and every marketing email will include an unsubscribe link.
9. How we use your data
We use your data to:
Fulfil and deliver your order
Respond to questions or enquiries sent through our contact form
Keep records for accounting and tax purposes, as required by UK law
Understand how visitors use the Site, so we can improve it
10. Our legal basis for processing
Contract — processing your order and delivering what you've paid for
Legitimate interests — responding to enquiries, keeping the Site secure, and understanding site usage
Legal obligation — keeping financial records for tax purposes
Consent — non-essential analytics and performance cookies, where you've acknowledged our cookie banner
11. Who we share your data with
As set out above, we share data with Squarespace (hosting, store, analytics, email delivery), Squarespace Payments and its providers Stripe and Sift, and Google Fonts and Adobe Fonts.
We may also share limited information with HMRC or our accountant for tax and accounting purposes.
We do not sell your data to any third party.
Some of these providers may store or process data outside the UK/EEA. Where this happens, they are required to provide an adequate level of protection for your data, for example via UK International Data Transfer Agreements or equivalent safeguards.
12. How long we keep your data
We keep order and contact records for as long as needed to fulfil our legal, accounting, and tax obligations — typically up to 6 years — and delete or anonymise data we no longer need.
13. Keeping your data secure
We take reasonable steps to protect your personal data. The Site is served over an encrypted connection (HTTPS), payment details are handled entirely by our payment providers rather than by us, and access to order and enquiry records is limited to those who need it to run the business.
14. Automated decision-making
