Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 13, 2026
1. Who We Are
Patchwork Sisters ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website at patchworksisters.com and the Patchwork Sisters Snail Mail Quilt Club, as part of LollysStitches. The club is run by two young quilters with the involvement and supervision of a parent or guardian. If you have questions about your information, you can reach us through our Etsy shop, LollysStitchesShop, using the contact details at the end of this policy.
2. Information We Collect
We only collect what we need to run the interest list and, later, the club. This includes:
- Information you give us directly. When you join the interest list, we collect your first and last name, email address, and optionally your phone number and city/state. We also collect your quilting experience level and the interest options you select (for example, joining for yourself, gifting, comfort-quilt donations, or community updates).
- Shipping and payment information (later). When the club opens for paid membership, we will collect your mailing address so we can send your monthly envelope, and payment details will be handled by our payment processor (we do not store full card numbers ourselves).
- Basic technical information. Like most websites, our site and our email tools may automatically receive standard information such as your browser type, device, and general location, along with basic analytics about how the site is used.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Add you to the interest list and let you know when club spots open.
- Send you the updates you signed up to receive.
- Process memberships, payments, and mail your monthly envelope once the club launches.
- Respond to your questions and provide support.
- Understand what's working on our site so we can improve it.
- Keep the club safe and comply with legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal information.
4. How We Share Information
We share information only in these limited ways:
- Service providers. We use trusted third-party tools to run the club — for example, an email/CRM platform to manage the interest list, a payment processor to handle subscriptions, and shipping tools to mail your envelope. These providers may access your information only to perform services for us.
- Legal reasons. We may share information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of Patchwork Sisters, our members, or others.
We do not sell or rent your personal information to advertisers or data brokers.
5. Email and Text Messages
By joining the interest list, you agree that we may contact you at the email address (and, if provided, the phone number) you gave us, about the club and your membership. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in any email, or by contacting us. If we send text messages, you can opt out by replying STOP.
6. Cookies and Analytics
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to make the site work, remember preferences, and understand how visitors use it. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Turning off some cookies may affect how the site works.
7. Children's Privacy
The Patchwork Sisters club is created by young people, but it is intended for adult quilters and members who can enter into a membership. Our website and interest list are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has given us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
8. Your Choices and Rights
You have choices about your information:
- Access and updates. You can ask us what information we have about you, or ask us to correct it.
- Deletion. You can ask us to remove you from the interest list and delete your information.
- Unsubscribe. You can opt out of marketing messages at any time.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) or the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. To make any request, contact us using the details below.
9. Data Retention and Security
We keep your information for as long as needed to run the interest list and the club, or as required by law. We take reasonable steps to protect your information, but no method of storage or transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll change the "Last updated" date at the top. If the changes are significant, we'll do our best to let interest-list members know.
