ShayMarie Unfiltered LLC (“ShayMarie Unfiltered,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect personal information when you visit shaymarieunfiltered.com, leave comments, subscribe to emails, submit a story, contact us, create an account, or purchase merchandise.

By using the website, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information you voluntarily provide, including:

• Your name, email address, telephone number, billing address, and shipping address.
• Account usernames and profile information.
• Comments and information entered in comment forms.
• Newsletter subscription information and communication preferences.
• Contact-form messages and correspondence.
• Stories, photographs, biographical details, and other content submitted through Her Voice.
• Order details, product selections, transaction information, and customer-service communications.

Information Collected Automatically

When you use the website, certain information may be collected automatically, including:

2. Comments and Gravatar

When visitors leave comments, we collect the information entered in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent information to assist with spam detection and website security.

An anonymized string created from an email address, sometimes called a hash, may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether the commenter uses that service. After a comment is approved, the commenter’s Gravatar profile picture may be publicly visible with the comment.

Comments and their associated metadata may be retained indefinitely so that we can recognize follow-up comments, maintain discussions, enforce our policies, and preserve published content.

3. Her Voice and Other Content Submissions

When you submit a story or other material through Her Voice, we may collect your name, contact information, story, photographs, background information, and any other details you choose to provide.

Stories may contain personal or sensitive information about you or other people. Submit only information that you are authorized and comfortable sharing with us for review and possible publication.

We use submitted information to:

• Review and respond to submissions.
• Communicate with contributors.
• Edit, format, and prepare approved content.
• Publish and promote approved stories as described in our Terms and Conditions.
• Maintain records of permissions and editorial decisions.

Submitting a story does not guarantee publication. Information included in a published story may become publicly accessible and may be copied or shared by website visitors.

4. Contact Forms and Communications

When you contact us, we may collect your name, email address, message, attachments, and other information you provide. We use this information to respond, provide support, maintain business records, and protect the website and our legal rights.

We may retain correspondence for as long as reasonably necessary for customer service, administrative, security, or legal purposes.

5. Email Subscriptions

When you subscribe to ShayMarie Unfiltered emails, we collect your email address and any other information requested on the subscription form.

We use this information to send requested blog updates, announcements, and related communications. Our email service may also process delivery status, opens, link interactions, unsubscribe requests, and similar information used to operate and improve email communications.

You may unsubscribe at any time through the link included in an email. We may retain a limited record of an unsubscribe request to ensure that your preference continues to be honored.

6. Customer Accounts and Merchandise Orders

When you create an account or place an order, we may collect:

Payments are processed through third-party payment providers, including WooPayments and its payment partners.

Payment providers may receive information needed to authorize and process a transaction, such as your name, email address, billing address, shipping address, telephone number, purchase amount, and payment identifiers.

WooPayments uses hosted payment fields provided through a PCI DSS-validated payment environment. Complete card numbers and security codes are processed by the payment provider rather than stored directly on our website.

Payment providers process information under their own privacy policies and legal obligations. WooCommerce advises merchants to disclose the sharing of billing and transaction information with payment providers.

This information may include:

• Customer name.
• Shipping address.
• Email address or telephone number when required for delivery.
• Product, size, color, quantity, and design selections.
• Order identifiers and shipping information.

These providers may use the information to produce merchandise, arrange delivery, provide tracking, address order problems, prevent fraud, and comply with legal requirements. Printify handles personal information according to its own Privacy Policy.

9. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Operate essential website functions.
• Maintain shopping carts and checkout sessions.

If you leave a comment and choose to save your information, cookies may remember your name and email address for future comments.

A temporary cookie may be used on the login page to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. Login and account cookies may remember your session, display settings, and “Remember Me” selection.

WooCommerce may use cookies to maintain cart contents, determine when cart information changes, and assign a unique code that allows cart information to be retrieved.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect website, account, cart, or checkout functionality.

10. Analytics and Website Performance

We may use Google services, Jetpack, WordPress tools, or similar services to understand website traffic, page performance, referrals, device information, and visitor interactions.

These providers may collect or receive cookie identifiers, IP addresses, device details, browsing activity, and related usage information according to their own privacy policies.

We use this information to maintain the website, understand which content is helpful, identify technical problems, and improve website performance.

11. Embedded Content and External Links

Articles may include embedded videos, images, social-media posts, or other content from third-party websites. Embedded content may behave as though you visited the third-party website directly.

Those websites may collect data, use cookies, embed tracking technologies, and monitor your interaction with their content, particularly when you have an account with that service and are logged in.

Our website may also link to external websites. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

12. How We Share Information

We may share personal information with service providers that help us operate the website and business, including:

• To protect the rights, safety, and property of ShayMarie Unfiltered, our users, or others.
• In connection with a merger, sale, financing, restructuring, or transfer of all or part of the business.
• With your consent or at your direction.

13. Legal Bases for Processing

Where applicable law requires a legal basis, we process personal information based on one or more of the following:

• Your consent, such as when you subscribe or voluntarily submit a story.
• Performance of a contract, such as processing an order.
• Our legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the website and business.
• Compliance with legal, tax, accounting, and regulatory obligations.
• Protection of our rights and the rights of others.

You may withdraw consent for future processing when consent is the applicable basis. Withdrawal does not affect processing completed before the withdrawal.

14. How Long We Retain Information

• Comments and associated metadata may be retained indefinitely.
• Account information may be retained while an account remains active and for a reasonable period afterward.

To submit a privacy request, email contact@shaymarieunfiltered.com. We may take reasonable steps to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

WordPress also provides tools that allow verified users to request an export or erasure of certain personal information associated with an account or comments.

16. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards designed to protect personal information.

Payment-card information is processed through third-party payment providers using secure payment technology. We limit access to personal information to parties that need it to provide services, operate the website, or meet legal obligations.

No website, internet transmission, or electronic-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You are responsible for protecting your account credentials and notifying us if you suspect unauthorized account activity.

17. International Processing

Our website and service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. These locations may have privacy laws that differ from those in your country.

When required, service providers may use legally recognized safeguards for international transfers of personal information.

18. Children’s Privacy

The website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can review and address the request.
