Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit or make a purchase from jessicakathrynart.com (my website).
Personal information that is collected
When you visit my website, certain information about your device (including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device) is automatically collected. Additionally, as you browse, information is collected about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you here, and information about how you interacted here. This automatically-collected information is referred to as “Device Information”.
[Device Information is collected using the following technologies:
- “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
- “Log files” track actions occurring on my website, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.
- “Web beacons”, “tags”, and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about how you browse my website.]
Additionally when you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase on my website, certain information is collected from you, including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information (including credit card numbers, Paypal, Shop Pay), email address, and phone number. This information is referred to as “Order Information”.
When “Personal Information” is addressed in this Privacy Policy, I'm talking both about Device Information and Order Information.
How is your personal information used?
The Order Information that is collected generally to fulfil any orders placed through my website (including processing your payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, this Order Information is used to:
- Communicate with you
- Screen my orders for potential risk or fraud; and
- When in line with the preferences you have shared here, provide you with information or advertising relating to my products.
The Device Information that is collected to help screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimise my website (for example, by generating analytics about how my customers browse and interact here, and to assess the success of any marketing and advertising campaigns).

Finally, I may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information I receive, or to otherwise protect my rights as a small business owner.
