Who we share your data with
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. We also use Google Analytics, Google Adwords, Facebook Ads, Mailchimp and Stripe as third party services. If you send us a message or a comment via our website the information is stored on our website server which is hosted with Siteground.

All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
We retain order information for up to 5 years and we delete all contact form entries that are stored on the website server at least once a year.
