Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website is Sherri Lea Art and is located at https://sherrileaart.com. We are an online art website featuring original artwork, fine art prints, digital downloads, and creative content.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information provided in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser information. This helps us detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available through the Automattic Privacy Policy. After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible publicly alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location information, such as GPS data in the image’s EXIF metadata. Visitors may be able to download images from the website and potentially access information contained within those files.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are provided for your convenience so you do not have to enter the same information again when leaving another comment.

If you visit our login page, we may set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, additional cookies may be used to save your login information and screen preferences. If you select “Remember Me,” your login may remain active for an extended period. Logging out removes the applicable login cookies.

If you edit or publish content on the website, an additional cookie may be saved in your browser. This cookie does not contain personal information and expires after a short period.

Our website also uses cookies to support features such as your shopping cart, customer account, login session, and other website functionality.

Embedded content from other websites

Pages on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or other material from third-party websites. Embedded content from other websites generally behaves in the same way as if you had visited that website directly.

These websites may collect information about you, use cookies or similar technologies, include additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content. This may occur if you are logged into an account with that third-party service.

Who we share your data with

When you place an order, information necessary to process and fulfill your purchase may be shared with trusted third-party service providers. These may include payment processors, shipping and fulfillment providers, website hosting providers, analytics services, spam protection services, and other technology providers that help us operate the website.

For example, payments made through our website may be processed by Stripe. We do not store your complete credit or debit card number on our website. Payment information is handled by the applicable payment provider according to its own privacy policy and security practices.

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email. We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect our rights, website, customers, or visitors.

Analytics

We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. Google Analytics may collect information such as pages visited, approximate location, device and browser information, referral information, and general website activity. We use this information to understand what content visitors find useful and to improve our website and shopping experience.

Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect this information. Google’s handling of information collected through Google Analytics is governed by Google’s own privacy policies. You can learn more about Google’s privacy practices through the Google Privacy Policy.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information, subject to information we may be required to retain for legal, administrative, security, accounting, or other legitimate business purposes.

We may also retain order and transaction information as necessary for customer service, accounting, tax, fraud prevention, and legal requirements.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including information you have provided to us.

You can also request that we erase personal information we hold about you. This does not include information we are required to keep for administrative, legal, security, accounting, tax, fraud prevention, or other legitimate business purposes.

If you would like to make a privacy request, please contact us through the Contact page on our website.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Information related to purchases may also be processed by third-party payment, shipping, fulfillment, hosting, analytics, or other service providers as necessary to complete transactions and operate the website. Some of these services may process information on servers located outside your state or country.

Email Newsletter

If you choose to subscribe to our email newsletter, we may use the information you provide, such as your name and email address, to send you newsletters, updates, new artwork, creative projects, promotions, and other information from Sherri Lea Art.

You can unsubscribe from our marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in our emails. We will continue to process your information as described in this Privacy Policy.
