PRIVACY POLICE
These days any personal information on a computer has to be treated with great care, I appreciate your trust and want you to feel confident in my services and security as it relates to your personal information. This is my personal promise to you: - 

- The only personal information I have for you is your address to send the goods ordered - and your email to contact you.  At no time do I have any banking information.

- I only sell my craft items. I do not sell e-mail addresses or share them with any third party in any form, ever, under any circumstances.  I respect your privacy and appreciate your business. At no time do I ever provide your account contact or payment information to any third party. 

- The information that you provide is used for such purposes as responding to your requests, fulfilling orders, customizing my site to make it easier for you, improving my store features, and communication with you. I do not receive or store any personal financial information. If you use Pay Pal – their normal security conditions apply and I am not privy to the information.  The same applies when you send a cheque.

- If you have any concern about privacy of your personal information as used and collected within our website, please send me a thorough description and I will do my utmost to resolve it.
  
I do ask you to also respect my personal privacy too.  The kitten and The Goat often work from home - this is a private address and home to our loved ones.  Please do not pass on my personal details for any other reason than a friendly one.  You are welcome to collect from the house - please contact me first.  

The GDPR rules of 2018 are what I have been doing for years.  Any data you give me is used to process your order or answer your query - I don't store - and I don't share.
 
SHIPPING AND RETURNS
I charge a flat rate of £2 on all orders to contribute towards the postage charges.  This covers the stamp cost, the packaging as well as the fee I have to pay to PayPal to process your payment   I aim to package your purchase with great care, and dispatch normal orders within 48 hours of payment. Cheque paid orders will obviously take a little longer.  Please be aware - we are a recycling house hold and packaging will be reused.

Returns Policy
In the unlikely event that your purchases arrive damaged I offer a 14 day refund policy. Please contact me within 24 hours of receipt to inform of the damage. When the products have been returned to me I will assess the item/s and if I find the damage has occurred during transit or as a result of a problem during manufacture I will either provide a replacement product or where possible repair the item. This will then be returned to you at no cost.

If the goods arrive and you have changed your mind - you have 14 days to return them to me for a refund.  Goods must be returned in the original condition, still packaged and undamaged.

Special and bulk order may take a little longer - I will advise when you place the order.
I always get a Proof of Posting, which covers the parcel up to £30.  The Post Office requires that has to be late by 15 working days before being reported as lost.  I will of course handle all this and will refund your payment or supply something else of the same value, at no extra cost.
