At AcuArtistry, we are committed to protecting your personal information and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or make a purchase from us.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We only share necessary data with trusted third-party service providers required to operate our business and deliver our services to you.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information in several ways depending on how you interact with our website:

• Contact Forms: When you submit an inquiry through our contact form, your provided details—such as your name, email address, and message—are processed and stored securely on our website’s own server/database so we can respond to your message. The software developer of the plugin does not receive or have access to your submitted data.
• Email Subscriptions (MailPoet): If you subscribe to our newsletter or email updates, we collect your email address (and name, if provided) to send you marketing communications via MailPoet. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of any email.
• E-Commerce Orders: When you make a purchase on our store, we collect personal details necessary to fulfill your order, including your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, and order details.
• Analytics Data (Google Analytics): We automatically collect non-personal, statistical data about how visitors navigate our site. This includes IP addresses, browser types, referring pages, pages visited, and time spent on the site.

2. How We Process Payments

Payment processing for orders placed on www.acuartistry.com is handled securely by Square via WooCommerce.

We do not collect, store, or process your credit card or payment account details on our servers. All payment information is entered directly into Square’s encrypted system. Square uses and protects your financial information in accordance with their own policies, which you can review at Square Privacy Policy.
