We respect your privacy. This policy explains what we collect, how we use and share it, the legal bases for processing, and your rights. This policy applies to your interactions with our Etsy shop 12 Tribes On Earth by LeesaCrafts (“we,” “us,” “our”) through Etsy’s website and apps (the “Services”).

Important: Etsy is a separate, independent platform. Etsy’s own Privacy Policy, Cookies & Similar Technologies Policy, and regional notices also apply to your use of Etsy.

For users outside the UK/EEA

If you access our shop on Etsy or otherwise interact with us via the Etsy platform, you agree to this Privacy Policy, and to Etsy’s policies on cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies, including their use for interest-based advertising. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

For U.S. users (including California)

You may have additional rights under certain U.S. state laws. Please review Etsy’s United States Regional Privacy Policy (add Etsy link here). Our shop follows those disclosures to the extent they apply to processing we perform as an Etsy seller.

1) What Information We Collect and Receive

We receive data from Etsy as needed to fulfill orders and provide support, such as:

Order & account info: name, email, shipping/billing address, phone (if provided), items purchased, price, and order dates.

Payment details: processed by Etsy/PayPal/other providers; we do not receive your full card numbers.

Messages & custom requests: content you send via Etsy Messages.

Public interactions: your reviews, photos you choose to post, or other content you share on Etsy.

Technical/cookie data: collected by Etsy to run and improve its Services (see Etsy’s Cookies & Similar Technologies Policy).

If you purchase as a Guest, Etsy still shares essential order details with us so we can fulfill your order.

2) How We Use Your Information & Our Legal Bases (GDPR)

Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)): process and fulfill orders, provide customer service, handle returns/exchanges.

Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)): maintain records for tax, accounting, and compliance.

Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)): shop operations, fraud prevention, improving service quality, and protecting our rights.

Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)): optional marketing messages or non-essential communications (only if you opt in; you may withdraw consent any time).

3) How We Share Your Information

We share only what’s necessary:

With Etsy: to operate within the platform and comply with Etsy’s Seller Policy/Terms.

Service providers: shipping/delivery carriers, printing/fulfillment (if used), bookkeeping or tax tools (if used).

Legal & safety: to comply with laws, enforce policies, respond to lawful requests, prevent fraud or harm.

We do not sell your personal information.

4) International Transfers

Etsy operates globally. Your data may be processed in the U.S. or other countries. Etsy uses recognized safeguards for international transfers. Our shop relies on Etsy’s transfer mechanisms; see Etsy’s privacy documentation for details.

5) How We Protect Your Information

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards (limited access, secure records, platform encryption via Etsy). No online system is 100% secure, but we aim to protect your data consistent with industry practices.

6) How Long We Store Your Information

Orders & support records: retained only as long as necessary for fulfillment, customer service, and our legal/tax obligations (often up to 7 years under applicable laws).

Marketing consent records: kept while consent is active (and longer if required by law to document consent).
We delete or anonymize data when no longer needed.

7) Your Rights & Choices

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

Access, correct, delete, or port your data;

Restrict or object to certain processing;

Withdraw consent for marketing at any time (does not affect prior lawful processing).

8) Your Responsibilities

If you provide us with another person’s information (e.g., a gift recipient’s address), you represent that you have authority to do so and that the information is accurate.

9) Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as our practices or laws change. The Published and Effective dates at the top show when updates occur. Material changes will be noted on our Etsy policy page.
