Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit or make a purchase on peterharrisonseabirds.com (the “Site”). It is our policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating this Site.
PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
This Site is hosted by Squarespace. Squarespace automatically collects data when you visit this Site, including information about your browser, network and device, and your IP address. Squarespace needs this data to run this Site, and to protect and improve its platform and services. Squarespace analyzes the data in a de-personalized form. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information”.
This Site uses cookies and similar technologies, which are small files or pieces of text that download to a device when a visitor accesses a website or app. These functional and required cookies allow Squarespace, our hosting platform, to securely serve this Site to you. Analytics and performance cookies are used on this Site to view site traffic, activity, and other data.
Additionally, when you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase through the Site, we collect certain information including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information (including credit card numbers, email address, and phone number). We refer to this information as “Order Information”.
When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Order Information.
HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We use the Order Information that we collect generally to fulfill any orders placed through the Site (including processing your payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, we use this Order Information to communicate with you, and when in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with information relating to our products or services.
We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site).
SHARING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We share your Personal Information with third parties to help us use your Personal Information, as described above. For example, we share this information with Squarespace, our online store hosting provider, so that they can provide website services to us. We may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our rights.
YOUR RIGHTS
If you are a European resident, you have the right to access personal information we hold about you and to ask that your personal information be corrected, updated, or deleted. If you would like to exercise this right, please contact us through the contact information below. Additionally, if you are a European resident we note that we are processing your information in order to fulfill contracts we might have with you (for example if you make an order through the Site), or otherwise to pursue our legitimate business interests listed above. Additionally, please note that your information will be transferred outside of Europe, including to the United States.
DATA RETENTION
When you place an order through the Site, we will maintain your Order Information for our records unless and until you ask us to delete this information.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to our practices or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Your continued use of this Site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
