Privacy PolicyEffective date: April 22, 2026

Privacy, in plain language.

This Privacy Policy explains how SoftiesByPekki collects, uses, and shares information when you visit this website or contact me through linked social media channels. This site is a simple landing page that showcases handmade crochet work and links to SoftiesByPekki social media profiles.

1. Information I collect

Depending on how you use the site, I may collect or receive the following categories of information:

  • Technical and usage information: page views, browser type, operating system, approximate location, referring page, and similar device or request data generated when someone visits the site.
  • Messages you choose to send: if you contact me through Instagram or Facebook after following a link from this site, I may see your handle, name, and whatever information you include in your message.
  • Business records: if a conversation turns into a custom request or purchase discussion off-site, I may keep the details needed to respond and manage that request.

I do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information through this landing page, and I ask that you do not send highly sensitive information through social media messages.

2. How information is collected

Information is collected in a few straightforward ways:

  • Automatically when you load or navigate the website.
  • Through my hosting and analytics providers, which help run and measure the site.
  • Directly from you if you choose to contact me on Instagram or Facebook.

3. Why I use information

I use the information above to:

  • Operate, host, secure, and improve the website.
  • Understand which pages or content are useful to visitors.
  • Respond to questions, custom requests, or messages you send.
  • Keep basic business records when needed.
  • Comply with legal obligations or protect against misuse.

4. Analytics, hosting, and cookies

This site is hosted on Vercel and includes Vercel Web Analytics. According to Vercel, its Web Analytics product stores anonymized data, does not use cookies, and reports aggregated page-usage information. That helps me understand general traffic without building customer profiles for advertising.

This site does not use a newsletter signup, advertising trackers, or an on-site checkout. If you visit Instagram or Facebook from links on this site, those third-party platforms may use their own cookies or tracking technologies under their own privacy policies.

5. Sharing

I do not sell or rent personal information.

I may share limited information with these categories of third parties when necessary:

  • Hosting and analytics providers that help me run and measure the website.
  • Social media platforms if you choose to contact me or follow my profiles there.
  • Authorities or advisers if disclosure is required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or the site.

6. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a Do Not Track setting. There is no universal standard for how websites must respond to that signal, and this site does not currently change its practices in response to it. That said, this landing page is not set up to profile visitors across different websites for targeted advertising.

7. Retention and security

I keep information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purposes described above, such as responding to a message, maintaining basic records, or reviewing site traffic trends. I use reasonable measures to protect information I control, but no website or platform can guarantee absolute security.

8. Your choices and privacy requests

You can choose not to contact me through social media, and you can use your browser or device settings to control some forms of tracking or stored data.

If you believe I hold personal information about you from a direct conversation and you want to request access, correction, or deletion, contact me through one of the profiles linked below. I will review reasonable requests in line with applicable law.

9. Children's privacy

This site is not intended to collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information directly to me, please contact me so I can review and remove it when appropriate.

10. Changes to this policy

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as the site or legal requirements change. If I make a material change, I will post the updated version here and revise the effective date at the top of the page.
