Privacy Policy
What we collect when you shop with us, why, and what we do with it.
Last updated: 26 August 2026
Who we are
Un Pedacito De Ella sells handmade candles, soaps and clay pieces at unpedacitodeella.com. We are based in Los Angeles, California.
For anything in this policy, reach us through our contact page or on Instagram at @unpedacitodeella.
We trade as Un Pedacito De Ella, a home-based handmade business in Los Angeles, California. We do not publish a street address; the contact routes above reach us directly. If you need our details for a formal request under the CCPA or any other law, ask through the contact page and we will provide them.
What we collect
When you place an order
- Your name and email address
- Your shipping and billing address
- Your phone number, if you give one — used only for delivery updates
- What you bought and what you paid
We never see or store your card details. Payments are handled by WooPayments, and your card information goes straight to the payment processor. We receive only confirmation that the payment succeeded.
When you browse
Our shop runs on WordPress and WooCommerce, which set a small number of cookies needed to keep your basket working and to keep you signed in if you have an account. These are necessary for the site to function and cannot be switched off.
We do not run Google Analytics, advertising pixels, or any third-party tracking. We do not build profiles of visitors, and we do not sell or share your information for advertising.
When you contact us
If you use our contact form we keep your message and your details so we can reply. If you message us on Instagram, that conversation lives on Instagram and is governed by their privacy policy, not ours.
Why we use it
- To take, make and deliver your order
- To reply when you get in touch
- To meet our tax and accounting obligations
- To prevent fraud
We do not send marketing email. If we ever start a newsletter it will be opt-in, and every message will carry an unsubscribe link.
Who we share it with
Only the services needed to run the shop:
- WooPayments — to take payment
- USPS — to deliver your order
- Hostinger, our hosting provider — the site and its database sit on their servers
We do not sell your personal information.
How long we keep it
Order records are kept for seven years, which is what tax record-keeping requires. Contact form messages are kept for two years and then deleted.
Your rights
You can ask us for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Some records we may have to keep for legal reasons — tax records in particular. To make a request, contact us using the details above.
If you live in California
California residents have specific rights under the CCPA and CPRA: to know what personal information we collect and why, to request a copy of it, to request deletion, and not to be discriminated against for exercising those rights.
We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by California law, and we do not use it for cross-context behavioural advertising. To make a request, contact us and we will respond within the time the law allows.
Children
This shop is not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If you believe a child has given us their information, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
The site runs over HTTPS, so information sent between your browser and our shop is encrypted. No method of transmission is completely secure, but card details never touch our servers at all.
Changes
If this policy changes we will update this page and change the date at the top.
