Data we collect
- Essential website data: Our website stores only the technical information required to make the site function properly (such as session cookies). These are always active and do not require consent.
- Analytics (optional): With your consent, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how our website is used. Google Analytics sets cookies that measure visits, device type, and pages viewed. This data is anonymized and processed in aggregate form. Analytics cookies are only loaded after you have accepted them.
- Affiliate disclosure: Some links on this site lead to our products on Zazzle. If you purchase after following one of these links, Zazzle may credit us with a referral commission under their Ambassador program. This process uses the standard browser referrer (the URL of our site) and does not set cookies on your device from our website.
- Contact by email: If you email us directly, we receive the personal data you include in your message (such as your name, email address, or other details you provide). We use this information only to respond to your request.
How we use your data

We do not sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
