The Little Black Cat Jewellery Privacy Policy
The Little Black Cat is based in the United Kingdom, and has been selling jewellery since 2016. I sell to buyers Worldwide.
This Privacy Policy describes how I collect, use, and share information when you purchase from The Little Black Cat Jewellery, contact me, or otherwise use my services.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control.
Personal Information I Collect (and how I use it)
When you place an order with me, contact me, or otherwise use my services, I ask you to provide me with certain information such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information (including the email address associated with PayPal) and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom piece of jewellery or commission, for example), if you contact me directly.
Your personal information is collected primarily for the purpose of fulfilling any orders placed through the Site. I may also use this information to communicate with you; screen my orders for potential risk or fraud; and when in line with the preferences that you have shared with me in order to provide you with information or advertising relating to my products or services.
In addition to this, when you visit the Site, certain information is automatically collected about the device that you are using, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. In addition to this, as you browse the Site, information about the individual web pages or products that you view is collected, as well as websites or search terms that referred you to the Site. This automatically collected information is collected using the following technologies:
‘Cookies’, which are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include a unique identifier. For more information, or to learn how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

How I Collect Personal Information
I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use and share your information, including:
Those needed to provide my services such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
When you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list;
If necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
Those necessary for the purpose of providing and improving my services, where those are not overridden by your rights and interests.
Sharing Your Personal Information
Information about my customers is integral to my business. I will only ever share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, such as:
I share information with PayPal as necessary to provide you with my services and to comply with my obligations under both the PayPal Seller Policy and PayPal’s Terms of Use.
I share information with Stripe as necessary to provide you with my services and to comply with my obligations under both the Stripe Seller Policy and Stripe’s Terms of Use.
I share information with Customer Reviews Ltd as necessary to send an email reminder to my customers to review their purchase.
In order to offer you Klarna’s payment methods, I might in the checkout pass your personal data in the form of contact and order details to Klarna, in order for Klarna to assess whether you qualify for their payment methods and to tailor those payment methods for you. Your personal data transferred is processed in line with Klarna’s own privacy notice.
I engage certain trusted third parties (such as Royal Mail) to perform functions and provide services to my shop. I will share your personal information with these third parties but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
I may collect, use, retain and share your information in order to be in compliance with laws.
I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services described within this Privacy Policy. I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce my agreements.
