Sky Marcano, operating as Eat Something Pretty, runs https://eatsomethingpretty.ca. This page explains what personal information we collect through the site, why, who we share it with, and what you can ask of us.

Who is responsible

Sky Marcano, operating as Eat Something Pretty, is responsible for privacy on this site. Contact: [email protected].

What we collect

  • Join the Mail Club: your full name, email, street address, city, province and postal code, and a newsletter consent box. The details go to our membership records and to PayPal. We use the street address to mail your monthly art card.
  • Newsletter signup: your email and a consent box. The details go to our newsletter list.
  • Payments: PayPal takes your payment details. The site never sees your card number. We keep the records PayPal sends us about your membership payments.
  • Analytics: Google Analytics 4 records the pages you visit and details about your device and browser.
  • Server logs: your IP address, browser and the pages requested, kept to run and protect the site.
  • Email you send us: your address and whatever you write.

Why we use it

  • Your name, email and address let us mail your monthly art card, run your membership and write to you about it.
  • Payment records let us bill the membership and answer questions about a charge.
  • Your newsletter email lets us send the newsletter.
  • Analytics show which pages are read, so we can improve the site.
  • Server logs keep the site running and protected.
  • Email you send us lets us reply.

Consent

You give consent by ticking the box on the Join the Mail Club form or the newsletter form. You may withdraw consent at any time by writing to [email protected].

Newsletter

We send it only to people who ticked the consent box on the newsletter or Mail Club form. To stop the emails or have your details removed, write to [email protected] and we will take you off the list.

Who we share it with

We do not sell personal information. We use these service providers:

  • PayPal (United States and Canada): payments and membership billing.
  • Google (United States): Google Analytics and Google Fonts. Your browser contacts Google to load the site's fonts.
  • Gmail (United States): holds the email you send us and sends the newsletter. Gmail is run by Google.
  • Cloudflare (United States): delivers the site to your browser.

Where it is stored

Our server is in British Columbia, Canada. PayPal processes some data in the United States. Google processes some data in the United States. Gmail may process email outside Canada, including in the United States. Information processed there is subject to the laws of that country.

How long we keep it

  • Email messages you send us are deleted within 12 months.
  • Order and payment records are kept for 6 years.
  • Unpaid signups are deleted after 48 hours.

How we protect it

The site is served over HTTPS.

Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to count visits, with two properties, one for each of our two domains. It sets two cookies that are not essential to the site:

  • _ga tells returning visitors apart.
  • _ga_* keeps session state, with one cookie per property.

Both come from Google Analytics. You can block them in your browser settings or with Google's opt-out browser add-on.

Your choices and rights

You may ask to see the personal information we hold about you, have it corrected, or have it deleted, and you may withdraw consent. Write to [email protected]. We will answer as soon as we can.

Concerns and complaints

Please contact us first. We handle personal information under BC PIPA. If you are not satisfied, you may complain to the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia (oipc.bc.ca).
