Privacy Policy

HappyASP LLC
Effective date: November 13, 2026

1. Who we are

HappyASP LLC operates happy-asp.com, a California creative studio offering design, websites, print production, custom products, and digital resources. This policy explains how we handle personal information through our website and related client communications.

Contact: happyaspllc@gmail.com. Location: Sacramento, California, United States.

Artisan Alley is a community initiative of HappyASP LLC. This policy covers information collected through its pages on this website. Additional notices and terms will be provided before new donation, volunteer, or event programs begin collecting information.

2. Information we collect

Depending on your interaction, we collect contact information (name, email, telephone number, business name, billing or delivery address); order and project details (purchases, payment status, invoices, preferences, approvals, messages, and support requests); materials you provide (artwork, photographs, website content, and print files); and account information and download-access records. Guest checkout is available, and an account may be created during checkout.

We also collect information you choose to post in comments or community features, such as display names, profile information, and submissions. Public submissions may be visible to other visitors. Technical information may include IP addresses, browser and device information, server logs, cookie identifiers, and website activity, depending on enabled services. We may use publicly available business information from websites, directories, and social media for research and project preparation.

Please provide only information needed for your request. Do not send identity documents, financial credentials, health information, passwords, or other sensitive information unless we have specifically agreed on an appropriate process. You are responsible for having authority to provide materials relating to other people.

3. Contact and project forms

Our Contact form collects your name, email address, selected topic, and message. Our Start Your Project form collects your name, email address, service selection, and project description, with optional business name, website, budget range, and preferred timing. These forms send inquiries; they do not place paid orders or subscribe you to a newsletter. They do not accept file uploads.

We use Elementor Forms to store submissions in the website administration area and email them to happyaspllc@gmail.com. Submission records may include the submission date and time, page URL, IP address, and browser or user-agent information for administration, troubleshooting, and spam prevention. A hidden honeypot field helps detect automated submissions. Access to inquiry records is limited to authorized people who need them to handle requests or maintain the website.

Website notifications are sent from hello@happy-asp.com through our authenticated IONOS mailbox using WP Mail SMTP. IONOS and Google process inquiry details as part of email delivery and storage. Replying to a notification may use the email address supplied in the form. Do not use a form to submit card details or confidential account credentials.

4. How we use information

We use information to answer inquiries, prepare estimates, perform projects, process and fulfill orders, arrange production and shipping, deliver digital purchases, maintain accounts, provide support, keep business records, protect the website, and meet legal obligations. If we offer marketing messages, signup and unsubscribe choices will be explained when you subscribe. Sending an inquiry or placing an order does not itself subscribe you to a third-party newsletter.

5. Service providers and disclosures

We disclose information as needed to providers supporting our business: website hosting and security, payment processing, email and file storage, project tools, printing and manufacturing partners, shipping carriers, and professional advisers. For example, a printing partner receives the print file and necessary production or delivery details.

Our active checkout payment provider is Stripe. Stripe processes payment details, billing information, transaction information, and relevant device or fraud-prevention information under its own privacy policy. If you choose to save a payment method, the payment provider maintains payment credentials; the store may retain a reference token and limited payment-method details. Do not send card numbers by email.

We use IONOS for website hosting and domain email, Google email to receive and manage inquiries, and may use Google Drive to exchange files or provide alternative download access. We also use ChatGPT and Manus for research and creative assistance, frequently with publicly available business information. Information entered into these tools is processed by their providers under applicable service terms and account settings. A private conversation does not guarantee information remains solely on our own systems.

We use WordPress and WooCommerce for website, account, and order functions, and Jetpack/Automattic for connected website services and visit statistics. Google for WooCommerce connects product listings and store features with Google Merchant Center and supplies Google Ads measurement. Enhanced Conversions, which can send hashed customer contact identifiers to Google Ads, is currently disabled. Google Customer Reviews invitations are configured to be offered after purchase where the store is enrolled; an invitation depends on customer opt-in. Reviews may also be displayed through Trustindex and Google store features.

We may disclose information to comply with law, address fraud or security concerns, protect legal rights, or in connection with a business transfer subject to applicable safeguards. Advertising measurement and third-party services may involve disclosures of online identifiers and activity that qualify as sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising under applicable law. Optional advertising disclosures are subject to the choices below. Provider notices include IONOS, Google, Automattic, and Trustindex.

6. Cookies, embedded content, and tracking

Essential technologies support shopping carts, sign-in, security, checkout, and saved privacy preferences. WPConsent offers Accept All, Reject Optional, and Preferences. The floating Cookie Preferences button lets you revisit your choice. The wpconsent_preferences cookie currently lasts 30 days.

Optional categories include Statistics (Jetpack Stats) and Marketing (Google Ads). Our consent manager is configured for opt-in, to block recognized optional scripts and supported embedded content before consent, and to communicate choices through Google Consent Mode. Essential checkout and payment functions remain available.

Google tags may still make limited requests without advertising cookies under Consent Mode. Rejecting optional cookies does not mean no requests reach any provider: hosting, security, payments, and embedded review or store features can still process technical connection information. Third-party providers may recognize you across websites through their own services, subject to applicable choices and their notices.

The consent manager is configured to recognize Global Privacy Control (GPC) as an opt-out of non-essential categories. The older Do Not Track (DNT) signal is not separately configured to control all third-party services; use Cookie Preferences or GPC instead. Browser settings can also restrict cookies, although some features may not work correctly. For privacy or opt-out requests you cannot complete through these controls, email happyaspllc@gmail.com.

7. Portfolio use

Our project terms reserve permission to display business names, logos, and completed designs in our portfolio and promotional channels, subject to any separate written confidentiality agreement. In portfolio examples, we obscure faces, personal surnames, private contact details, and other personal information. This permission does not authorize disclosure of confidential project information or override third-party rights.

8. Retention and security

We keep information for as long as reasonably needed to handle inquiries, complete projects, maintain business and tax records, support purchases, meet legal obligations, and resolve disputes. The appropriate period depends on the record and applicable requirements. We use reasonable safeguards appropriate to the information, but no online system is completely secure.

No fixed automatic deletion period is currently configured for inquiry submissions, inactive accounts, or pending, failed, cancelled, refunded, and completed orders. Records may remain until manually reviewed or deleted or another applicable process requires action. Deletion requests are reviewed individually and do not automatically erase every order or revoke download access. Email, project files, backups, and provider-held records can have separate retention cycles and obligations. We do not promise immediate deletion from every backup or third-party system.

9. Your choices and requests

Email happyaspllc@gmail.com to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your information or ask about our practices. We may need to verify your identity. Some records must be retained for legal, accounting, security, or contractual reasons. Available rights and response deadlines depend on the laws that apply to you and our business. Where applicable, you may also have rights concerning portability, targeted advertising, sale or sharing, or appeals, without unlawful discrimination for exercising them.

10. Children and international visitors

Our commercial services and checkout are intended for adults and authorized business representatives. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action. Any future child-focused Artisan Alley program will require its own review and notices before launch.

Our business is based in the United States. Information may be processed in the United States and other countries where our providers operate, subject to applicable requirements.

11. Changes

We will post updates on this page and revise the effective date. Where legally required, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent for material changes.
