Privacy Policy

​

​

I know privacy policies can be a bit boring (and honestly, I’d rather be making art than writing one). But keeping your personal information safe matters — so here’s the important stuff, explained as clearly as possible.

Who I Am

This policy applies to my website, EllieDonnelly.com, run by me, Ellie Donnelly.

Information I Collect

When you visit my website, a few types of information might be collected:
   •    Personal details — like your name, email address, or payment info (but only if you choose to share them, e.g., when buying art or signing up for updates).
   •    Technical info — like your IP address, browser type, and device details (this mostly comes from cookies and analytics tools).
   •    Usage data — like which pages you view and how you use the site (so I can make it better).

How It’s Collected
   •    Directly from you (if you contact me, join my mailing list, or purchase artwork).
   •    Automatically, through cookies and website analytics.
   •    From third-party services I use, like payment processors and email services.

Why I Use Your Information

I use your information to:
   •    Fulfill orders and provide services you’ve asked for.
   •    Respond to messages and questions.
   •    Send updates or newsletters (if you’ve subscribed).
   •    Improve the website and my art services.
   •    Comply with any legal requirements.

Sharing Your Information

I don’t sell your data — ever.
I may share it only with trusted third-party services I use, such as:
   •    Payment providers (to process orders securely).
   •    Email services (to send updates if you’ve subscribed).
   •    Website analytics tools (to see how people use my site).

Cookies & Tracking

My site uses cookies (small files stored on your device). They help with things like keeping the site running smoothly and understanding how visitors interact with it. You can disable cookies in your browser settings if you prefer.

Data Security & Retention

I keep your personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described here. I take reasonable steps to protect it — but no system is 100% secure.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live (like the UK, EU, or California), you may have the right to:
   •    Access, update, or delete your personal data.
   •    Opt out of newsletters or marketing emails (unsubscribe links are included in emails I send).
   •    Request a copy of the personal information I hold about you.

Children’s Privacy

This website is not aimed at children under 13, and I don’t knowingly collect data from them.

Changes to This Policy

If I update this policy, I’ll post the new version here on the site.
