I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. I only share information with trusted service providers necessary to operate the Site, such as:

  • Email Service Providers: (e.g., Mailchimp) to manage my mailing list.

  • Payment Processors: (e.g., Stripe, PayPal) to securely process transactions.

  • Hosting Providers: To keep the website running securely.

I may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety and rights of the artist or others.

My Site may contain links to other websites (such as galleries like Maison 10 or 1stDibs, or social media like Instagram). I am not responsible for the privacy practices of those external sites and encourage you to read their policies.

6. Security

I take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
