Who we are

The Rustic Compass operates therusticcompass.com and its related brand sites. Mailing address: [business mailing address]. Effective date: [effective date].

Information we collect

We keep collection to the minimum needed to answer you and to run the site.

  • Information you send us: your name, email address and the content of your message when you use a contact or enquiry form.
  • Purchase information: if you buy a digital product, our payment processor handles your card details. We never see or store full card numbers.
  • Technical information: standard server and analytics data such as pages requested, referring page, approximate region, browser and device type.

How we use it

We use the information above to:

  • Reply to your message and provide support
  • Deliver products you purchase and handle refunds
  • Send updates you asked to receive, which you can stop at any time
  • Keep the site secure and understand which pages are useful

What we do not do

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. We do not share your email address with other marketers. We do not send unsolicited bulk mail, and we do not buy contact lists.

Service providers

We use third parties to send email, host the site, and process payments. Each one receives only what it needs to perform its function and is not permitted to use your information for its own marketing.

Cookies and analytics

The site may use cookies and similar technology to remember preferences and measure aggregate traffic. You can block or delete cookies in your browser; core pages will still work.

Retention

Enquiries are kept as long as needed to handle the conversation and any follow-up. Purchase records are kept as long as tax and accounting rules require. Everything else is deleted when it is no longer useful.

Your choices

You can ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. You can unsubscribe from any email we send using the link in that email. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under local privacy law; we honour those requests regardless of where you are.

Questions about this policy can be sent to info@therusticcompass.com.

Children

This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted here with a new effective date.
