HobbleCreekQuilting respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share your personal data when you visit our website or interact with our services. We operate in South Africa and follow the principles of the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA).
When you fill in a contact form, sign up for a workshop, or send us an email, we collect the information you provide: your name, email address, phone number, and any message you write. We also automatically collect technical data such as your browser type, device information, IP address, and pages visited through cookies and analytics services.
We use your data to respond to your enquiries, process workshop registrations, send relevant updates about our services, and improve our website. We may also use aggregated analytics to understand how visitors use our site.
Our website uses cookies for basic functionality and analytics. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings. We do not use cookies for targeted advertising or third-party marketing.
We do not sell your personal data. We may share information with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate our website and manage communications (e.g., hosting providers, email services, analytics platforms). These processors are contractually bound to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.
We retain your personal data only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. If you have not interacted with us for two years, we will delete or anonymise your data.
You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data held by us. You may also request a copy of your data in a portable format, withdraw consent at any time, or object to certain processing activities. To exercise these rights, please contact us using the details below. We will respond within 30 days as required by POPIA.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data against loss, unauthorised access, and misuse. However, no online transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
HobbleCreekQuilting does not make false or misleading claims about its services, affiliations, or endorsements. We do not create fake urgency, fake testimonials, or imply official partnerships with brands or institutions unless explicitly stated and verifiable. All workshop descriptions and outcomes are presented honestly, and we do not guarantee specific results without clear context.
