Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 27, 2026

This policy explains what information baysidekeepsake.com collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. Bayside Keepsake is a small business run by Kels in Daphne, Alabama. If you have a question about this policy, please reach out through the contact page.

Purchases happen on Etsy

Every Bayside Keepsake order is placed and paid for on Etsy. When you buy, Etsy collects and processes your payment and shipping details under the Etsy Privacy Policy. I never see or store your card information. Etsy shares the details needed to make and ship your order, and those details are used only to fulfill it.

Information you choose to share

  • Contact form: your name, email address, and message, so I can reply to you.
  • Email list: your email address, if you join the Keepsake List. Emails are sent through Hostinger Reach, my email service provider. Every email includes a link to unsubscribe at any time.
  • Comments: if comments are open on a post, the name, email, and comment you submit, plus your IP address to help prevent spam.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, this site and its hosting provider (Hostinger) keep basic server logs, such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited, to keep the site secure and running well. The site uses essential cookies for things like remembering comment details. If I add website analytics in the future, I will update this policy to say which service is used.

Links, embeds, and affiliate links

This site links to Etsy and other websites, and some posts may include embedded content such as Pinterest pins. Those sites have their own privacy policies and may collect data when you visit them or interact with their content. Some links may be affiliate links; see the Affiliate Disclosure for details.

How your information is used

Your information is used only to reply to you, send the emails you signed up for, and run this website. I do not sell your personal information.

How long information is kept

Contact messages are kept as long as needed to answer you. Email list details are kept until you unsubscribe. Comments and their details are kept as long as the comment is published.

Your choices

You can unsubscribe from emails at any time using the link in any email. You can also ask to see, correct, or delete the personal information this site holds about you by sending a message through the contact page.

Children

This website is not directed to children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new date at the top.
