I care about your privacy and take care to adhere to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) standards.

All direct payment gateways offered by Wix.com and used by my website adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by my store and its service providers.

Joining/ Subscribing to Mailing List

My sole purpose in collecting your email address when you join my mailing list is to gain your consent to receiving offers and occasional updates. I don't bombard subscribers with news and updates so by 'occasional updates' I mean approximately once per month.

​

It is easy to unsubscribe by clicking on 'unsubscribe' which appears at the bottom of every subscriber email message. 

​

As already outlined above, I never share personal data, including email addresses with any third party, except payment providers.

​

Additional cookies (e.g., Functional, Analytics, Marketing) are used only with your consent. It is quick and easy to choose and change cookie settings. Cookie settings can be permanently accessed from the bottom left of the screen.
