Privacy policy

Last updated: September 4, 2026

Busy Bee Ts and More operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services, in order to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (the "Services"). Busy Bee Ts and More is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information when you visit, use, or make a purchase or other transaction using the Services or otherwise communicate with us. If there is a conflict between our Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy, this Privacy Policy controls with respect to the collection, processing, and disclosure of your personal information.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using and accessing any of the Services, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy and understand the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Personal Information We Collect or Process

When we use the term "personal information," we are referring to information that identifies or can reasonably be linked to you or another person. Personal information does not include information that is collected anonymously or that has been de-identified, so that it cannot identify or be reasonably linked to you. We may collect or process the following categories of personal information, depending on how you interact with the Services:

  • Contact details including your name, address, billing address, shipping address, and email address.
  • Financial information including payment card information, transaction details, and payment confirmation, processed on our behalf by Shopify Payments.
  • Account information including your username, password, preferences and settings.
  • Transaction information including the items you view, put in your cart, or purchase, and your past orders.
  • Custom order content, including any design, image, logo, text, or photo you upload for us to print. See "How We Use Custom Order Content" below.
  • Communications with us, including the information you include in customer support inquiries or design requests.
  • Device and usage information including your IP address and how you interact with the Services, collected automatically through the Services and through cookies.

Personal Information Sources

We may collect personal information from the following sources:

  • Directly from you, including when you create an account, place an order, upload a design, or contact us.
  • Automatically through the Services, including from your device when you use our website, and through cookies and similar technologies.
  • From our service providers, including Shopify and the payment, shipping, and fulfillment partners we use to run the store.

How We Use Your Personal Information

  • Provide and fulfill your order. We use your personal information to process payment, produce and fulfill your order, arrange shipping or local pickup, communicate with you about your order's status, and handle any returns or exchanges under our Refund Policy.
  • Account and customer support. To create and maintain your account, respond to your questions, and provide customer support.
  • Security and fraud prevention. To authenticate your account, provide a secure checkout, and detect or prevent fraudulent or unsafe activity.
  • Order-related communication. To send you confirmations, shipping and pickup updates, and respond to messages you send us. If you opt in, we may also send you occasional updates about new designs or the shop; you can unsubscribe from these at any time using the link in the email.
  • Legal reasons. To comply with applicable law, respond to valid legal process, and enforce our Terms of Service.

We do not currently run targeted or personalized third-party advertising, and we do not sell your personal information. If that changes, for example if we begin running ads that use website visitor data, we will update this policy first and provide the opt-out choices required by law at that time.

How We Use Custom Order Content

Some of our products let you upload your own design, image, or photo for us to print. We use that content only to produce your order; we do not use it for any other purpose without telling you.

We often photograph finished pieces for our own marketing, including posts in our Facebook group and on the website, the same way we've always shown off finished work. If your order includes a photo of a person (including a child), a name, or other content you'd rather we not feature publicly, let us know when you order and we won't include it in anything we post. Absent that request, we may photograph and share the finished item.

How We Disclose Personal Information

We disclose personal information only where necessary to run the store:

  • With Shopify and the vendors who perform services on our behalf, such as payment processing, shipping and fulfillment, and website hosting.
  • When you direct us to, for example to ship your order or respond to a support request.
  • To comply with a legal obligation, such as a subpoena or court order, or to enforce our Terms of Service.
  • In connection with a sale or transfer of the business, in which case your information would transfer with it under the same protections described here.

Relationship with Shopify

The Services are hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes personal information about your access to and use of the Services in order to provide and improve the Services for you. Information you submit to the Services will be transmitted to and shared with Shopify, which may be located in a different location than where you reside, in order to provide the Services to you. To learn more about how Shopify uses your personal information, you can visit the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy. Depending on where you live, you may exercise certain rights with respect to your personal information at the Shopify Privacy Portal.

Third-Party Websites and Links

The Services may provide links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow links to sites not affiliated with or controlled by us, you should review their own privacy and security policies. We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of those sites.

Children's Data

The Services are not intended to be used by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information about children under the age of majority in your jurisdiction. If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with personal information, contact us using the details below to request that it be deleted.

Security and Retention of Your Information

No security measures are perfect, and we cannot guarantee "perfect security." We recommend that you do not use unsecure channels to send us sensitive or confidential information. We retain personal information for as long as needed to fulfill your order, maintain your account, and meet our legal and tax obligations.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights in relation to your personal information, including the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold about you. These rights are not absolute and may apply only in certain circumstances. You can exercise any of these rights by contacting us using the details below. We will not discriminate against you for exercising them, and we may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

You may opt out of promotional emails at any time using the unsubscribe link in the email. We may still send you non-promotional messages about your account or an active order.

Complaints

If you have concerns about how we handle your personal information, contact us using the details below. Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices or for legal or operational reasons. We will post the revised policy here and update the "Last updated" date above.
