The information I collect and how I use it
When you place an order I gather your name, email and postal address, which will be used to fulfill the order, for example to the Post Office, Royal Mail or another courier and which may include contacting you directly. I may collect your details through website sales, direct sales and through subscription to my newsletter or blog.
If you have signed up to my mailing list, either at checkout or through any other sign up form on the website I will only keep your name and email address, which will be used to update you on my news, events and special offers and never passed on or sold.
If an individual has provided their details to me at an exhibition or an event they have also opted into receiving my newsletter, information about events, my work in general and special offers.
These details are uploaded and stored on a mailing list using Mailchimp, a secure password protected service. You can update your preferences at any time.
My Website host is Shopify, which records information necessary to process orders, for example  name, address, telephone numbers, email address, but does not store payment details, which are handled by PayPal, an online, password protected service. I do not see or store any payment details through the payment gateway.
You may opt out of receiving mailings from us at any time, either by contacting me directly or unsubscribing through our newsletters.
I may record information about the number of visitors to this website or the number of purchases made in order to improve my products and services.
I may use personal information provided by you in order to fulfill necessary anti-fraud checks.  This information may be disclosed to a credit reference or fraud prevention agency, which may keep a record of that information. This is done only to confirm identity for security purposes.
