1. Customer-Uploaded Photos & Personalization Content
Our products are handmade and custom-printed using the personal photographs and text that you upload during the checkout process. We treat these uploads with the highest level of confidentiality and care:
- We use your uploaded photos and personalization text strictly to produce, print, quality-check, and ship your specific order.
- We do not use customer-uploaded family or personal photos for marketing, social media, website examples, or any other public purpose unless you give us separate, explicit, and written consent.
- Uploaded images are processed securely through our product personalization application, NINEMAGS, and our e-commerce platform, Shopify, solely to fulfill your requested items.
- Photo Retention Period: To ensure we can handle any potential transit damage or remake requests, your image files are securely retained in our production storage for **30 to 60 days** after delivery. Once this remake window closes, your photos are automatically and permanently deleted from our active production servers.
2. Notice at Collection (U.S. State Privacy Laws — CCPA / CPRA)
We collect the following specific categories of personal information from our visitors and customers:

- Internet & Network Activity: Pages viewed on our store, time spent, cookies, analytical identifiers, and browser information.
