Privacy Policy

Last updated: 6/23/25

Hi there! I’m Megan, the founder, creator, and everything-in-between here at Made By Megan. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit my website madebymegan.co, make a purchase, or get in touch with me. By using my site or placing an order, you're agreeing to the terms in this policy. If anything feels unclear, don’t hesitate to reach out.

Updates to This Policy

Things change sometimes—whether it's how I run my business or how the internet works. I may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. When I do, I’ll update the date at the top of this page so you always know what’s current.

What I Collect and Why

Depending on how you interact with my site, I may collect some personal information to make sure everything runs smoothly and you have a good experience.

When you place an order or contact me:

You might share:

- Your name, email, shipping & billing addresses

- Your payment info (which is securely processed through trusted third-party services)

- What you’ve ordered, added to your cart, or saved for later

- Any messages, questions, or special requests you send my way

I use this information to:

- Pack and ship your jewelry safely

- Stay in touch about your order

- Handle any returns or questions

- Send updates or promotions (only if you’ve signed up)

When you browse my site:

I may automatically collect a few things like:

- Your IP address or browser type

- Which pages you visited or clicked on

- How long you stayed on the site

This helps me see what’s working, what needs improving, and how to keep things running smoothly.

Cookies

My site uses cookies (the digital kind—not chocolate chip!) to remember things like what you put in your cart, your preferences, and how you interact with the site. Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but you can adjust your settings if you’d rather not.

If you're curious about cookies used by Shopify (which powers my site), you can read more here: https://www.shopify.com/legal/cookies

Third-Party Services

Even though it's just me running things, I work with a few trusted services to help keep everything running. This includes:

- Shopify, which powers my website and checkout

- Payment processors, like Stripe or PayPal

- Shipping providers, to get your order to your door

- Email platforms, for newsletters or order updates

- Analytics tools, to help me understand how people use the site

They only access your info to help me fulfill your orders or improve the shop—nothing shady or spammy.

Your Info Is Safe With Me

I never sell your personal information. I only use it to fulfill your orders, keep in touch, or send things you’ve signed up for. If I ever need to share it with a third-party service (like USPS or Shopify), it’s only to help you get what you ordered or improve your experience.

Your Rights

If you ever want to:

- See what info I have on you

- Update or delete your information

- Opt out of marketing emails

- Or ask questions about any of this

Just shoot me an email at madebymeganco@gmail.com. I’m happy to help, no questions asked.

Data Storage & Security

I do my best to keep your information secure, but no system is perfect. Most data is stored through Shopify or trusted services that use secure protocols. I won’t keep your info any longer than I need to—just enough to complete your order or meet legal requirements.

For Parents

I don’t knowingly collect info from anyone under 13. If you’re a parent or guardian and think your child has shared their information with me, please reach out and I’ll delete it right away.

Reach Out Anytime

If you have any questions or concerns about your privacy or this policy, I’d love to hear from you. You can reach me at:

Thanks so much for trusting me with your info—and for supporting a small handmade business.

With love,

Megan
