Bee the Light Art Studio
Effective date: October 28, 2026

This policy explains how Bee the Light Art Studio handles personal information collected through beethelightartstudio.org and related order or inquiry interactions.

Information we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect: your name, email address, telephone number, and shipping or billing address; order details, communications, and information you provide about a commission, class, or inquiry; and payment status and transaction details needed to process or administer an order.

Online orders are processed through Shopify's secure checkout. In-person purchases at events, markets and the studio are processed by Square. Payment-card information is handled by these payment processors; the Studio does not store full payment-card details. Each processor's own privacy terms also apply to its handling of payment information.

How we use information

We use information to respond to inquiries, process and fulfill orders, arrange delivery, provide customer support, administer commissions or bookings, maintain business and accounting records, protect against fraud, and meet legal obligations. If you have opted in or the law otherwise permits, we may also send occasional studio news or marketing messages. You can opt out of marketing emails using the unsubscribe link or by contacting us.

When information may be shared

We do not sell your personal information. We may share relevant information with service providers that help operate the website or fulfill an order, such as website hosting, payment processing, email, shipping, rewards-program or analytics providers. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or safety, or in connection with a transfer of business, where permitted by law.

Cookies and similar technologies

The website or its service providers may use cookies or similar technologies to operate the site, remember preferences, process transactions, or understand site usage. You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect website features.

Your choices and requests

You may ask us to correct or delete personal information by emailing bee.the.light.art.studio@gmail.com. We will respond as required by applicable law. We may need to retain information for completed transactions, accounting, legal compliance, dispute resolution, or other lawful purposes.

Security and retention

We use reasonable measures to protect information, but no website or electronic transmission can be guaranteed completely secure. We retain information as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described above and for applicable legal or business requirements.

Children's information

Our classes may be available to people of different ages. A parent or legal guardian should provide booking information for a minor where appropriate. Please contact us if you believe a child's personal information was submitted to us inappropriately.

Third-party websites

Our website may link to other websites or services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this one.
