Plain-language privacy
Your family’s details are not marketing data.
This site is designed to help families discover ThinkieInkies while keeping personalization and sensitive checkout details out of advertising tools.
What this site handles
ThinkieInkies does not create customer accounts or receive card or bank details. Etsy remains available for every listed product. For selected approved configurations, this site may send a server-verified products, bounded quantities, option codes and prices to a hosted Stripe or PayPal checkout. Those providers collect payment details and, for physical products, a US shipping address under their own policies. For a small approved personalized cohort, Stripe-hosted Checkout can also collect the required name fields. Those values remain in the verified Stripe order for fulfillment; products with unresolved fields or private photo workflows remain Etsy-only.
The optional direct cart stores only product slugs, bounded quantities and approved option codes in this device's browser storage. It contains no name, email, address or personalization. At checkout the server ignores browser prices, revalidates every item, and applies one owner-approved flat US shipping rate to the combined order.
A product page may let you type a name for an on-screen preview. That text stays in the current browser session and is never included in analytics, direct checkout or Etsy automatically.
Before an enabled Stripe checkout opens, the site stores a minimized order record needed for payment integrity and reconciliation. It contains an opaque order and attempt ID, provider, product slug and SKU, immutable per-line quantities/prices, option codes and non-personal required-field keys, catalog version, currency, item/shipping/tax/total amounts, payment and fulfillment states, and timestamps. The event ledger stores only provider event/object IDs, type, mode, timestamps and a one-way payload hash. It does not store names, email, phone, delivery address, card or bank data, personalization, IP address, browser identifier, raw provider payload or webhook signature. Customer and shipping details remain with the payment provider except during an owner-authorized shipping export.
To prepare a physical paid order for shipping, an authorized owner can ask the site to retrieve the recipient name, email and delivery address from the matching Stripe Checkout Session. The site validates that session against the paid order and returns those details in a protected CSV together with every SKU, selected option identity and an exact measured parcel profile for that single variant or cart composition. The application does not write the recipient details or CSV to D1 or its logs. The owner temporarily downloads the CSV to a trusted device, uploads it to Pirate Ship to review rates and buy a label, and must delete the local file after use. Pirate Ship processes the uploaded data under its own privacy and data terms.
Query-bearing checkout success pages, cancellation pages and owner admin pages keep optional measurement tags inactive, so payment references and shipping-export credentials are not used for analytics or advertising measurement. After a Stripe order is confirmed paid in the ledger, the site can set a host-only HttpOnly receipt marker with a five-minute maximum lifetime and move the browser to a query-free confirmation page. That page rechecks the paid order before any conversion event is eligible, then the response clears the marker.
Why order records are kept
The minimized ledger is necessary to prevent duplicate charges, verify signed provider updates, keep a paid order from being changed by a later catalog edit, and support manual reconciliation. It is independent of the optional advertising choice. Direct checkout remains disabled until the owner approves and publishes a concrete retention and deletion schedule; provider records follow the provider’s own legal and account settings.
Optional analytics and advertising tags
If you select Allow, this site may load configured analytics or advertising tags from Google, Meta, TikTok, Pinterest and Microsoft Advertising. They can receive page views, a non-personal product identifier, price, currency and standard browser or device information. If you allow tags and a Stripe payment passes both receipt checks, configured providers can also receive quantity, verified item/shipping/tax/total amounts and one-way transaction and event identifiers. The site does not send the internal order ID, Stripe references, names, email addresses, personalization text or free-form searches to these services.
Campaign parameters such as UTM values or advertising click IDs can be remembered in your browser after you allow analytics. Before that choice, they can be held only in the current page’s memory so your decision can be applied; they are not stored or sent to advertising vendors. Declining removes stored campaign attribution and prevents optional tags from loading. After a verified conversion is dispatched, the browser can retain up to 64 one-way event identifiers to prevent a refresh from counting the same payment twice; declining removes that deduplication record too.
Advertising providers and choices
After you choose Allow, configured providers may use cookies, pixels, web beacons or similar browser storage to measure visits and product actions, attribute advertising, build audiences and help show or limit relevant ads. ThinkieInkies controls the event fields intentionally sent by this site, while each provider separately handles standard browser, device and network data under its own policy.
- Meta: Privacy Policy and Ad preferences
- TikTok: TikTok for Business Privacy Policy
- Google: Privacy Policy and My Ad Center
- Pinterest: Privacy Policy
- Microsoft Advertising: Microsoft Privacy Statement and advertising settings
You can also use industry opt-out tools from YourAdChoices or the Network Advertising Initiative. These controls complement, rather than replace, the ThinkieInkies Privacy choices button below.
Your choices
The site stores your Allow or Decline selection so it can respect that choice on later visits. You can reopen the controls at any time. If you withdraw a previous Allow choice, the page reloads so already-loaded vendor scripts are cleared from the active page.
External links and questions
Links to Etsy, hosted Stripe or PayPal checkout, Pirate Ship, and sharing services open third-party services. Their own privacy terms apply there. For a privacy question or an order placed on this website, use the independent store contact page. For an Etsy order, use Etsy's Help with order flow so the question stays attached to that marketplace order. Do not include card or bank details in a message.
