PRIVACY POLICY

Hi there! At Stonemeld, your privacy matters just as much as the perfect accessory. We’re here to be transparent about how we collect, use, and keep your info safe when you browse our site, shop for hats, belts, hair accessories, or join our community. By using our services, you’re cool with us handling your info as laid out below.

7.1 What Info Do We Collect?

We only grab what we need to make your shopping smooth and fun—no extra fluff:

Personal deets: Your name, email, phone number, and shipping/billing address (we ask for these when you make an account, check out, or sign up for updates).

Payment info: Credit card details, PayPal/Apple Pay/Google Pay info (we use trusted processors like Stripe or PayPal to handle payments securely—we never store your full payment info on our servers, promise!).

Marketing picks: Whether you want to get our emails with styling tips, new arrivals, or exclusive deals (totally optional!).

7.2 How Do We Use Your Info?

We use your data to make your Stonemeld experience awesome—here’s exactly how:

Get your order to you: Process payments, ship your accessories, and send tracking updates so you know when your new favorite piece is on the way.

Help you out: Answer questions about sizing, styling, shipping, or returns; fix any issues with your order fast.

Personalize your browse: Suggest accessories you might love (like a belt that matches the hat you looked at) based on what you’ve checked out.

Send you fun stuff: Share newsletters with seasonal trends, exclusive offers, or outfit ideas—only if you said “yes” to marketing emails.

Make Stonemeld better: Figure out what works (like which hair accessories are fan faves) to improve our site, add more of what you love, and tweak designs.

Follow the rules: Comply with taxes, anti-fraud checks, and other legal stuff we have to do.

7.3 How Do We Keep Your Info Safe?

Your privacy is our priority—we use industry-standard tricks to protect your data:

Encryption for all your info (like when you check out or log in) so no one sneaks a peek.

Secure servers and firewalls to block unauthorized access.

Only a tiny team has access to your personal info—no random folks digging around.

We only share your info with trusted partners who help get your order to you (like USPS/UPS for shipping, or payment processors) or if the law says we have to. All these partners have to keep your info secret and can’t use it for anything else.

7.4 What Are Your Rights?

You’re in control of your info—here’s what you can do:

See, correct, or update your personal data (email support@stonemeld.com to ask).

Unsubscribe from marketing emails anytime (just click “unsubscribe” in the email or hit up our team).

Ask for a copy of your data in a format you can use easily.

Say “no” to data processing (where we need your permission for specific things).

Request to delete your personal data (we might have to keep some for legal reasons, but we’ll let you know).

We keep your info only as long as we need it (like to fulfill your order) or as the law requires. If you delete your account, we’ll anonymize your data—we might keep non-identifiable stuff (like “people loved this hair clip”) for analytics, but no one will know it’s you.

7.5 What About Cookies?

We use cookies (tiny, harmless text files) to make your site experience better:

Remember your shopping cart and favorite accessories so you don’t have to re-add them.

Save your login info for faster visits next time.

Suggest personalized products based on what you’ve looked at.

Fix site issues and make browsing smoother.

You can turn off cookies in your browser settings, but heads up—this might mean you can’t save favorites or get personalized suggestions, and some site features might not work as well.
