Privacy Policy

At The Kind Path, your privacy is important. This policy explains what personal data I collect, why I collect it, and how it’s kept safe. It complies with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).

What is Collected During Your Visit

I collect your name, email address, postal address, and order details when you place an order, use the contact form, or sign up for the mailing list.

How Your Information is Used

I use your information to:

  • Process and post your orders.

  • Get in touch, if needed about your order.

  • Send occasional email updates (if you’ve opted in).

Your data is never sold. I only share it with trusted third parties when necessary to run the business.

Third-Party Services

To help with payments, deliveries, and emails, I use the following trusted services:

  • Stripe and PayPal for secure payments.

  • Royal Mail for delivery.

  • Squarespace for managing the email newsletter.

These services only receive the data needed to carry out their role and have their own privacy policies in place.

If we are made aware of any security breeches through any of our third party platforms, that being Squarespace, Stripe or Paypal, then we will let those affected know.

Unsubscribing

If you've signed up for emails and change your mind, you can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the link in any newsletter emails or by contacting me directly.

Cookies

The site uses cookies to help it function and to understand how people use it. A pop up will appear at the bottom of the site, where you can accept or decline these cookies, or you can control cookies through your browser settings.

Your Rights

Under the UK GDPR, you have the right to access, update, or delete your personal data at any time. To make a request, email me at thekindpathco@gmail.com.

Data Retention

I only keep your data as long as needed to complete your order or meet legal and tax requirements.

Security

Your data is stored securely. Payments are handled through secure third-party providers—I never see your full card details.
