We use this content only to create and fulfill your order, unless you give us separate permission to feature it in our gallery, social media, or marketing. You may withdraw marketing permission by contacting us.

5. Sharing of Information

We may share information only as needed with:

  • Service providers — such as hosting, database, and storage providers (for example, Google Firebase) that help us operate the website and manage orders.

  • Courier partners — name, phone number, and delivery address required to ship your order.
  • Payment partners — limited information needed to confirm or process payment.
  • Legal authorities — when required by law, regulation, or to protect our rights and customers.

Third-party platforms have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.

6. Cookies & Website Technology

Our website may use essential cookies or similar technologies required for basic functionality, security, and hosting. We do not use personal information from cookies to sell advertising.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how some parts of the site work.

7. Data Storage & Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as needed to fulfill orders, provide customer support, maintain business records, resolve disputes, and meet legal requirements.

Order and customer records may be kept for a reasonable period after fulfillment for accounting, warranty, refund, and service purposes. Customization files may be retained as needed to complete or support your order.

8. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. However, no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
