Privacy Policy

Effective date: August 30, 2026

Introduction

Art Built From Struggle ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

This policy applies to all information collected through our website and any related services. By using our site, you agree to the practices described here.

Effective date: August 30, 2026.

Information we collect

Account registration: When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and a hashed password. We never store your password in plain text.

Purchases: When you place an order, we collect your name, billing address, and shipping address. Payment card details are processed directly by our third-party payment processor — we do not store your card number, CVV, or expiration date on our servers.

Contact form: When you reach out through our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message.

Newsletter: If you sign up for our email list, we collect your email address.

Automatically collected data: When you visit our site, we automatically collect your IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs. This data is collected through cookies and similar tracking technologies.

How we use your information

Process and fulfill your orders, including sending order confirmations and shipping updates.

Create and manage your account, and provide customer support.

Send you marketing emails about new work, events, and promotions — only if you have opted in. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send.

Respond to your contact form inquiries.

Analyze how visitors use our site so we can improve the experience.

Detect and prevent fraud or unauthorized access.

Cookies and tracking

We use cookies — small text files stored on your device — to keep you logged in, remember your cart, and understand how visitors use our site.

Essential cookies are required for the site to function (login sessions, cart). Analytics cookies help us understand traffic patterns; these can be disabled without affecting core functionality.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that disabling essential cookies may prevent you from logging in or completing a purchase.

Sharing your information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.

We share data only with service providers who help us operate the site — including our payment processor, email delivery provider, and shipping carriers. These providers are contractually required to protect your data and may only use it to perform services for us.

We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of our users or the public.

Data retention

We retain your account and order information for as long as your account is active or as needed to fulfill the purposes described in this policy.

If you request deletion of your account, we will remove your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or tax purposes (such as order records, which we keep for up to 7 years).

Newsletter subscribers who unsubscribe are removed from our mailing list promptly, though we may retain a record of the unsubscribe request.

Your rights

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, correct inaccurate data, or request deletion of your account and associated data.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at info@artbuiltfromstruggle.com. We will respond within 30 days.

You can update your account information at any time by logging into your account. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link in any email we send.

Children's privacy

Our site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13, please contact us at info@artbuiltfromstruggle.com and we will delete it promptly.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page.

For significant changes, we will notify registered users by email or by placing a prominent notice on our site before the change takes effect.
