Privacy Policy

Welcome to bFunky, the website and online store of independent artist Bailey Funk. Your privacy matters to me. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, store, and protect personal information when you visit my website (the “Site”), explore my artwork, or purchase products through my online store. By using this Site, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information I Collect
I may collect personal information when you visit my website, contact me, create an account, or place an order. This may include your name, email address, phone number, billing and shipping addresses, order details, purchase history, and messages you send through the Site. Certain technical information may also be collected automatically, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referring websites, and cookie or session information. This information helps me operate my website, process orders, and improve your shopping experience.

2. How I Use Your Information
I use personal information to process and fulfill orders, communicate about purchases and shipping, respond to inquiries, manage customer accounts, prevent fraud, maintain website security, improve website functionality, and comply with applicable legal and tax obligations. I may also send updates about new artwork, releases, or special offers when you have opted in or when otherwise permitted by law. I do not sell your personal information.

3. Orders and WooCommerce
My online store uses WooCommerce to manage products, shopping carts, checkout, and orders. When you make a purchase, information such as your name, contact details, billing and shipping addresses, and purchased items may be stored in the website’s order management system. This information is used to fulfill your purchase, provide customer support, and maintain necessary business records.

4. Payment Information
Payments are handled by third-party payment processors. I do not directly store complete credit card numbers or card security codes on my website. I may receive limited transaction information, such as payment status, transaction identifiers, and partial card details, when provided by the payment processor. Payment providers process information according to their own privacy and security policies.

5. Shipping and Order Fulfillment
When you purchase physical artwork, prints, or merchandise, I may share necessary information with shipping carriers, printing partners, or fulfillment providers. This may include your name, shipping address, contact details, and purchased products. Information is shared as reasonably necessary to prepare, produce, and deliver your order.

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
My website may use cookies and similar technologies to remember shopping cart contents, maintain checkout sessions, support customer accounts, save preferences, and improve website functionality. Some cookies are essential for the online store to operate properly. You can manage cookies through your browser settings, although disabling certain cookies may affect shopping cart, checkout, or account functionality.

7. Website Analytics
I may use analytics tools to understand how visitors discover and interact with my website. Depending on the tools enabled, information collected may include page views, approximate geographic location, device type, traffic sources, and general browsing activity. This information helps me improve the website and how my artwork is presented. Analytics providers may use cookies or similar technologies and process information according to their own privacy policies.

8. Marketing Communications
If you subscribe to my mailing list or otherwise agree to receive updates, I may occasionally send emails about new artwork, upcoming releases, exhibitions, or special offers. You may unsubscribe from promotional communications at any time using the unsubscribe link in an email or by contacting me. Unsubscribing will not prevent necessary transactional emails related to purchases or customer service.

9. Third-Party Services
My website may use third-party providers for hosting, payment processing, shipping, print production, email communications, analytics, security, and other operational functions. These providers may receive information necessary to perform their services and may operate under their own privacy policies and legal obligations. I do not authorize service providers to use customer information for unrelated purposes on my behalf.

10. Information Retention
I retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or comply with applicable laws. Order records may be retained for accounting, tax, customer service, and dispute resolution purposes. When information is no longer needed, I will take reasonable steps to delete or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal requirements.

11. Information Security
I take reasonable precautions to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or loss. These measures may include secure website connections, access controls, software updates, and established payment processing services. However, no website or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and I cannot guarantee absolute security.

12. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location and applicable privacy laws, you may have the right to request access to personal information I maintain about you, request corrections, request deletion of certain information, or opt out of promotional communications. Some requests may be subject to legal exceptions, including requirements to retain transaction records. To make a privacy-related request, please contact me using the contact information provided on my website.

13. California Privacy Rights
California residents may have additional privacy rights under applicable California law. Depending on whether the relevant laws apply to my activities, these rights may include requesting access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information, as well as information about certain data disclosures. I do not sell personal information. Where applicable, I will respond to qualifying requests in accordance with California law.

14. Children’s Privacy
My website is not specifically directed toward children under the age of
13. I do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 without appropriate parental consent where required by law. If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate authorization, please contact me so I can review the situation and take appropriate action.

15. External Links
My website may contain links to social media platforms, third-party websites, or other online services. These websites operate independently and may have their own privacy policies. I am not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or security of external websites. I encourage visitors to review the privacy policies of any third-party services they use.

16. International Visitors
bFunky is operated from the United States. If you visit my website from another country, your information may be processed or stored in the United States or other locations where service providers operate. Privacy laws may differ between countries, and I will handle personal information in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

17. Changes to This Privacy Policy
I may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes to my website, services, technology, or legal obligations. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised date. Material changes will be communicated when required by applicable law. I encourage visitors to review this page occasionally to stay informed about how personal information is handled.
