Privacy policy

Who is responsible. Ionel Ilie, Walsall, West Midlands, United Kingdom (designstudioalin@gmail.com) is the data controller under UK GDPR.

What we collect. Your name, email, phone, delivery address and order details. For personalised books: the name, age and other details you give us for the book. Please only give a child's details with the parent's or guardian's permission.

Why. To make, print and deliver your order and to contact you about it (lawful basis: contract). To keep accounting records (legal obligation). We do not send marketing emails and we do not sell your data.

Who we share it with. Stripe (payments), our print and delivery partners (Cloudprinter.com and Lulu Press) (to print and post your book; they may use couriers), and our email and hosting providers — only what each needs. Some of these may process data outside the UK with legal safeguards in place.

How long. Order records are kept for 6 years for tax reasons. Personalised book files are deleted within 12 months of delivery.

Cookies. We only use one essential cookie to keep forms secure. No tracking or advertising cookies.

Your rights. You can ask for a copy of your data, to correct it, or to delete it (where we don't need to keep it by law). Email us. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
