  • Platform providers – Etsy (where applicable) for order fulfilment

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, or destruction.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your information (subject to legal requirements)
  • Opt out of marketing communications

Analytics

We run our own first party analytics to see how the site is used. It records the pages you view, clicks on phone number links, how you found us (the referring site and any campaign tags in the link, such as the codes Google and Microsoft add to ad clicks), your approximate location (country, state and city, taken from your connection) and your device type, operating system and browser. We store the page address without any other part of the link, and we never store your IP address or your full browser details. When you send an enquiry we count that a form was sent, but nothing you type into it is part of analytics.

This analytics is provided by Pagecog, the company that looks after our website, which processes it for us as our service provider. The data is held on Pagecog's own servers, which run on Cloudflare and Railway and may be outside Australia. It is used only to report to us on how the website performs, and it is deleted automatically after 25 months.

This site also uses Google Analytics, which uses cookies to record how visitors use the site (such as pages viewed). Google explains how it uses this data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Cookies

Our own analytics sets two first party cookies: pc_v, a random visitor identifier that lasts about 400 days, and pc_s, a random session identifier that expires after 30 minutes without activity. They contain no personal details and are used only to count visits and follow a visit through the site. Google Analytics sets its own cookies, as described above. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings and the site will still work.
