Privacy Policy — Food Sex & Art

Last updated: January 2026

Food Sex & Art (“we”, “our”, “the site”) values your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have. We do not sell your personal information.

Information we collect

Information you provide directly. This includes your email when you subscribe to the newsletter or send a contact form, and your name, shipping address, billing details, and order contents when you make a purchase.

Information collected automatically. Server logs (IP address, browser, referrer, pages visited) and, if you’ve opted in via the cookie banner, anonymized analytics data via Google Analytics.

How we use it

To fulfill orders and communicate about them (transactional email).
To send the newsletter — only if you’ve explicitly opted in.
To prevent fraud and abuse.
To improve the site (aggregate analytics, with your consent).

We do not use your data for behavioral advertising and we do not sell or rent your information.

We share the minimum data required to operate the site:

Stripe — payment processing. Card details go directly to Stripe and never to us. Stripe is GDPR-compliant. Stripe’s privacy notice.
Printful — fulfillment. We share your name, shipping address, and order contents so they can produce and ship your order. Printful’s privacy notice.
Amazon Web Services (SES) — transactional email delivery (order confirmations, contact-form responses). Hosted in us-east-1.
Sendy (hosted by us, on AWS) — newsletter delivery if you opt in. We retain your email and subscription state until you unsubscribe.
Google Analytics — only if you’ve granted analytics consent via the cookie banner. IP anonymization is enabled.
Cloudflare Turnstile — bot protection on forms. Only loaded after marketing consent.

No data is sold to anyone, ever.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies:

Necessary — keep the site functioning (your cart, your cookie preference). Always on.
Analytics — Google Analytics, off by default. Requires your consent.
Marketing — Cloudflare Turnstile, off by default. Required to submit forms; consent prompted at point of use.

You can change your choices any time via the Cookie Preferences link in the footer.

Your rights

You have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you.
Rectify inaccurate data.
Erase (“right to be forgotten”) — within legal retention obligations.
Restrict or object to processing.
Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
Lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority (e.g., the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, or your country’s data protection authority).

California (CCPA / CPRA)

If you’re a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we have, to delete it, to correct it, and to opt out of sale (we don’t sell data, but the right exists). To exercise these rights, contact us via the form below.

To exercise any of these rights, write to hello@foodsexandart.com or use the contact form.

Data retention

Order records: kept for seven years for tax and accounting purposes.
Newsletter subscribers: retained until you unsubscribe.
Contact form messages: retained for one year, then deleted.
Analytics: Google Analytics retention is set to 14 months.

Children

This site is not intended for users under 16. We don’t knowingly collect data from minors.

Security

We use HTTPS site-wide, encrypted storage, principle-of-least-privilege access controls, and verified payment processors. No system is perfectly secure; in the unlikely event of a breach affecting your data, we’ll notify you per the relevant law.

Changes to this policy

If we make material changes we’ll bump the “Last updated” date and, if your consent is affected, re-prompt via the cookie banner.
