Privacy Policy

What Information We Collect

We collect information that helps us serve you better. This includes:

• Information you provide – like your name, email address, billing/shipping address, and payment information when you sign up for updates, submit inquiries, or purchase something from us.

• Information collected automatically – like your IP address, browser type, device information, and general location. This helps us understand how people use our site and keep things running smoothly.

We do not collect sensitive personal information such as racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, or health data.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information only when we have a clear reason. This includes:

• Fulfilling orders and delivering services

• Sending updates or marketing emails (only if you’ve opted in)

• Responding to your questions or support requests

• Analyzing how people use our site so we can make it better

• Keeping our services secure and preventing fraud

We never sell your personal data. And we don’t use it for automated decision-making or profiling.

Who We Share It With

We only share your information with trusted service providers that help us run our business. This includes:

• Payment processors like Stripe and PayPal

• Website platforms like Squarespace

• Email tools like Flodesk

• Analytics tools like Google Analytics

These companies must protect your information under strict privacy and security terms.

Cookies and Tracking Analytics

We use cookies to help our website run smoothly and understand how visitors interact with it.

• Essential cookies keep the site functional and remember basic interactions like navigation and preferences.

• Analytics cookies help us understand which pages people visit, how long they stay, and how they found us. This data is collected anonymously through tools like Google Analytics.

We don’t use cookies to advertise, retarget, or profile you. You can control cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling certain cookies may affect how the site performs.

How Long We Keep Your Information

We keep your personal information only for as long as needed—nothing more.

This includes:

• We retain contact information (like your name and email) to stay in touch, respond to your inquiries, or send updates if you’ve opted in.

• Payment and order records, which we’re required to keep for legal, tax, or accounting purposes.

• We keep form submissions, messages, and project details if we’ve interacted or collaborated with you directly.

If your information is no longer needed for its original purpose or we are no longer legally required to retain it, we will remove it from our systems or archive it securely.

If you have any questions or want us to delete your data, contact us at hello@rudeupart.com.

How We Protect Your Information

We treat your personal information with the same care and attention we give to the creative work we put into the world.

We use secure tools, platforms, and encrypted systems to manage all transactions, communication, and data storage. This includes secure hosting (via Squarespace), encrypted payment processing (via Stripe and PayPal), and trusted cloud-based email and document handling tools.

We limit access to personal data to only the people and systems that need it. When we no longer need your data, we remove it from our systems or archive it with restricted access.

We regularly review and update our practices to reduce risk, stay current, and act quickly if anything goes wrong. If we ever become aware of a breach that affects your information, we’ll notify you as soon as possible and explain the steps to fix it.
