Privacy Policy

Effective Date: March 30, 2025

Welcome to www.markmacha.com! I, Mark Macha, am the sole owner and operator of this website. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit my site, purchase artwork or prints, or interact with me. Your privacy matters to me, and I’m committed to safeguarding it.

Information I Collect

  • Personal Information: When you make a purchase, I collect your name, email address, billing/shipping address, and payment details through my payment processors (Squarespace Payments, Stripe, and PayPal). This helps me process orders and deliver your items.

  • Website Usage: I may collect non-personal data like your IP address, browser type, and pages visited via cookies or analytics tools (e.g., Squarespace Analytics) to improve my site.

  • Contact: If you email me at mm@markmacha.com, I’ll keep your message and contact details to respond.

How I Use Your Information

  • Order Fulfillment: To process payments, ship artwork, and send order confirmations.

  • Communication: To reply to inquiries or provide updates about your purchase.

  • Site Improvement: To analyze how visitors use my site and enhance your experience.

  • Legal Compliance: To meet tax, shipping, or other legal obligations.

Sharing Your Information

I don’t sell or rent your data. I only share it when necessary:

  • Payment Processors: Squarespace Payments (powered by Stripe), Stripe, and PayPal handle your payment details securely. They have their own privacy policies (linked below).

  • Shipping: I share your name and address with carriers to deliver your order.

  • Legal Requirements: If required by law, I may disclose data to authorities.

Cookies & Tracking

My site uses cookies for basic functionality (e.g., cart management) and analytics. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling them might affect site features.

Your Rights

  • Access & Update: Email me at mm@markmacha.com to see or correct your data.

  • Opt-Out: Reply “unsubscribe” to any email to stop non-essential messages (order updates will still go through).

  • Deletion: Request data removal, though I may retain some info for legal or tax purposes.

Security

I use Squarespace’s secure platform and trusted processors to protect your data. However, no online system is 100% secure, and I’m not liable for breaches beyond my control.

Third-Party Links

My site may link to Stripe, PayPal, or other services. Their privacy practices differ from mine—check their policies:

Children’s Privacy

My site isn’t intended for anyone under 13. I don’t knowingly collect data from children.

Changes to This Policy

I may update this policy as needed. Changes take effect when posted here. Check back occasionally for the latest version.
