Privacy policy

Last updated: 31 May 2026

Welcome to Jaziz Studio — I take your privacy seriously and want you to feel confident when shopping with me.

This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit my website, make a purchase, or otherwise interact with me. My store is powered by Shopify, which helps me provide a safe and reliable online shopping experience.

By using my website or making a purchase, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at jamila@jazizstudio.com.

1. Who I Am

I'm Jamila Aziz, the owner and designer behind Jaziz Studio, based in the United Kingdom. For data protection purposes, I am the data controller, meaning I am responsible for the personal information you share with me.

2. Information I Collect

When you visit my shop, browse products, or place an order, I may collect certain personal details to help process your purchase and improve your experience.

This may include:

  • Contact information – such as your name, billing and shipping address, phone number, and email address.
  • Order and payment information – such as your chosen payment method and transaction details (Shopify and PayPal process payments securely on my behalf).
  • Account details – if you create an account, I collect your login information and preferences.
  • Communications – any messages you send me (e.g., order questions or feedback).
  • Technical data – such as your IP address, browser type, device, and how you use my site (Shopify collects this automatically).

I don't collect sensitive personal data (e.g., health or biometric information).

3. How I Collect Your Information

Your information may be collected in several ways:

  • Directly from you when you place an order, sign up for an account, or contact me.
  • Automatically through cookies and analytics when you browse my website.
  • From my service providers, such as Shopify (for payments and order fulfilment) and Gelato (for print-on-demand production and delivery).

4. How I Use Your Information

I use your personal information for legitimate business purposes, including:

  • To process and deliver your orders and provide customer support.
  • To send order confirmations, updates, or issue refunds when applicable.
  • To customise your experience, such as showing relevant products or remembering your preferences.
  • To communicate with you, including responding to messages or customer service requests.
  • To comply with legal obligations, such as tax and accounting requirements.
  • To protect my website and customers against fraud or misuse.

I may also send you occasional marketing emails about new designs or updates — but only if you've opted in. You can unsubscribe at any time.

5. Sharing Your Information

I only share your personal information with trusted partners who help me run my business. These include:

  • Shopify, which hosts my online store and processes transactions securely.
  • Gelato, which prints and ships your order directly to you.
  • Payment processors, such as PayPal or Shopify Payments.
  • Delivery companies, who need your name and address to deliver your order.

These partners only use your information for the services they provide to me — never for their own marketing.

I do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties.

6. International Transfers

As I use Shopify and Gelato, your personal data may be transferred and stored outside the UK or EEA — for example, in countries like the US, Canada, or the EU. Whenever your information is transferred internationally, I ensure that it is protected by appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

7. How Long I Keep Your Data

I only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose it was collected for — typically:

  • For completed orders, up to 6 years (to comply with tax and legal obligations).
  • For marketing (if you subscribe), until you unsubscribe or ask me to delete your data.

Once your data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

8. Your Rights (Under UK GDPR)

You have several important rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right to access – you can ask for a copy of the personal data I hold about you.
  • Right to correction – you can ask me to correct or update inaccurate information.
  • Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") – you can request deletion of your data where it's no longer needed.
  • Right to restrict or object – you can object to certain types of processing, such as marketing.
  • Right to data portability – you can request to receive your data in a structured format or transfer it to another provider.

To exercise any of these rights, simply email me at jamila@jazizstudio.com. If your request relates to Shopify's handling of data, you can visit Shopify's Privacy Portal.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you believe your data has been mishandled: https://ico.org.uk/

9. Cookies

My website uses cookies (small text files stored on your device) to help Shopify run the site, remember your basket, and improve your browsing experience. You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings at any time.

10. Children's Privacy

My website is not directed at children, and I do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18 years of age. If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact me immediately and I will delete it.

11. Security

I take reasonable steps to protect your data from loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. However, please note that no online system is completely secure, and I cannot guarantee absolute protection. For security, I recommend avoiding sending sensitive information by email.

12. Changes to This Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in my business or legal obligations. The most recent version will always be published here, with the date clearly shown at the top.
