The word 'Privacy' written in red, cursive font with an underline.

Look, the only thing I'm truly obsessed with is good typography, reading fantasy and the human condition. Your personal data is simply a necessary tool for sending you the exact products you ordered. I collect the bare minimum required to function, and I certainly aren't selling your anxieties to anyone else.

This policy details what minimal data I collect, why I need it, and what happens to it.

1. The Data I Collect

When you purchase a product from Messy Soul Prints, you are voluntarily providing me with the following data:

  • Identity Data: Your name (for addressing you properly).

  • Contact Data: Your email address (for sending order confirmations and tracking updates) and phone number (only used by couriers if they can't find your address).

  • Transaction Data: Details about the products you purchased.

  • Shipping Data: The physical address where your print or mug needs to be sent.

  • Payment Data: I do not store your full credit card details. All payment processing is handled securely by my third-party payment gateway (e.g., Stripe, PayPal, etc.). They handle the money; I handle the despair.

2. Why I Collect It

I use this data for the following strictly necessary purposes:

  • Order Fulfilment: To process your payment and send your information to my production partner (Printful) so they can create and ship your product. This is essential for the entire process to happen.

  • Communication: To update you on your order status (dispatch, tracking) and to respond to your queries.

  • Legal Compliance: To maintain business records for tax and legal purposes (because someone has to pay the government).

3. Third-Party Sharing

To deliver your product, I have to share your data with essential third parties:

  • My Production Partner: They require your name, shipping address, and the product details and, if express shipping, a mobile contact number to fulfil and dispatch your order. Without this, you get nothing.

  • Payment Processors: As noted above, they handle the secure financial transactions.

  • Couriers/Shipping Providers: They require your name and address to deliver the package.

I only work with partners I trust to treat your data with a modicum of respect. They only receive the data necessary for them to perform their specified function.

4. Cookies and Tracking

I use necessary cookies on my site to ensure the shop functions correctly (like keeping items in your cart).

I may also use basic, anonymous analytics tools (like Google Analytics) to understand how people use my site—for instance, which prints are causing the most psychological distress. This data is not personally identifiable and helps me improve the site (and judge humanity).

5. Security

I take reasonable technical and administrative steps to protect the minimal data I hold. However, because I am a highly critical and flawed person, I acknowledge that nothing online is ever 100% secure. If a security breach did occur, I would notify you as required by law.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to request access to the personal data I hold about you, request corrections, or request deletion. If you want me to delete your data, please email me, and I will comply, provided there is no legal requirement for me to retain it (e.g., past transaction records for tax audit purposes).

By using this website, you are confirming that you have read and accepted the necessary noise contained within this policy.

A Final Note: If you have actually read all these terms and conditions, then know that you truly are one of the world's most unique, detail-oriented, and likely slightly paranoid beings. Congratulations.
