Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10/16/26

Cat V. Atelier LLC ("Cat V. Atelier," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit or make a purchase on catvatelier.com (the "Site"), how we use it, and the choices you have.

1. Information We Collect

Information you give us directly:

  • Name, email address, shipping and billing address, and phone number when you place an order or contact us
  • Payment information when you make a purchase — this is collected and processed directly by our payment processor, Stripe; we do not store your full card number on our own systems
  • Information you provide when booking a consultation, appraisal, or custom design session (name, email, and any details you share about your request)

Information collected automatically:

  • Standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, and pages visited, collected through cookies and similar technologies via our platform provider, Squarespace, and any analytics tools we use (e.g., Google Analytics, if enabled)

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Process and fulfill your orders, including shipping and customer service
  • Send order confirmations, shipping updates, and respond to inquiries
  • Schedule and manage appointments (appraisals, custom design consultations)
  • Calculate applicable sales tax
  • Improve our Site and understand how visitors use it
  • Comply with legal and tax obligations

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Marketing emails: We will only send you promotional or marketing emails if you've opted in to receive them (e.g., by checking a signup box). You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any marketing email we send.

3. Who We Share Information With

We share information only as needed to operate the Site and fulfill your order:

  • Squarespace — our website and e-commerce platform host
  • Stripe — our payment processor
  • Shipping carriers (UPS, FedEx, USPS) — to deliver your order, we share your name and shipping address
  • Calendly — if you book a consultation or appraisal through our scheduling tool
  • Tax authorities, where required by law (e.g., Georgia Department of Revenue)

We do not share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

4. Cookies

Our Site uses cookies — small data files stored on your device — to keep your cart working, remember your preferences, and understand site traffic. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the Site (like checkout) may not work properly without them.

5. Data Retention

We keep your order and account information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose it was collected for, including to meet our legal, tax, and accounting obligations (typically several years for financial records, per Georgia/federal requirements).

6. Your Rights and Choices

You can:

  • Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate information
  • Ask us to delete your information, subject to our legal obligation to retain certain records (e.g., tax/financial records)
  • Opt out of marketing emails at any time

To make any of these requests, contact us at info@catvatelier.com.

California residents: You may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information is collected and to request deletion. Contact us using the information above to exercise these rights.

7. Children's Privacy

Our Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at info@catvatelier.com.

8. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including relying on Squarespace's and Stripe's security infrastructure for hosting and payment processing. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent changes. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
