At EkSeHandcrafted, we value your privacy as much as we value the craft. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you join our waitlist or acquire a piece from our collection.

1. Information We Collect

We only collect the information necessary to provide you with a luxury experience:

 * Identity Data: Your name (for personalizing your Founder’s Note).

 * Contact Data: Your email address (for Batch notifications) and your shipping address.

 * Transaction Data: Details of payments made via our secure third-party processors (Stripe/PayPal/Apple Pay). We do not see or store your full credit card details.

2. How We Use Your Data

Your information is used exclusively to:

 * Deliver the Larchsmith Collection to your door.

 * Notify you of upcoming Batch Drops (only if you have opted into the waitlist).

 * Provide Stewardship advice and workshop updates.

3. Data Retention & Security

 * Exclusivity: We do not sell, trade, or leak your data to third-party marketing firms.

 * Security: As we use Squarespace to host our workshop’s digital home, your data is protected by industry-standard encryption (SSL).

 * Duration: We keep your information only as long as necessary to fulfill your orders and provide customer support.

4. Your Rights (UK GDPR)

Under UK law, you have the following rights:

 * Access: You can request a copy of the data we hold on you at any time.

 * Erasure: You can ask us to "forget" you (delete your data) by unsubscribing or contacting the workshop directly.

 * Correction: You can update your details if they change.
