The website is not meant for use by children under the age of sixteen years old, and children under that age are prohibited from creating an account or otherwise providing their personal data.

Who has access to your information?

We limit access to your information to employees who have a need to use the information and are obligated to protect that information and keep it confidential. We may also share your information with other companies in the Cimpress group. All Cimpress group companies have a contractual obligation to comply with the terms of this privacy policy and to protect your information.

We may also provide the information we collect about you to other third-party companies, who may, as a service provider, process the information on our behalf, including companies that assist us with:

• Fulfilling or delivering your order;
• Storing and securing data;
• Processing payments;
• Marketing, analytics, and fraud detection activities; or
• Customer service.

We may offer products or services that are provided by our partners. If you choose to engage in such offers, our partners may have access to and process your personal data. Our partners may also share with us certain personal data they collect about you. We suggest that you review their privacy policies for more information about how they process and share your personal data.

Cimpress Group companies, third-party service providers, or partners may be located inside or outside of the UK. In particular, our VistaPrint teams that provide Customer Care are based in Germany, the Netherlands, the United States, Tunisia, Jamaica, India and the Philippines.

The extent of our transfer of your information outside of the UK is governed by an agreement incorporating the standard contractual clauses in accordance with Article 46 of the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 (the ‘GDPR’).

We may also share your information as required or permitted by law, including to enforce our Terms and Conditions, or to protect our rights or property or those of others. We may also be required to respond to requests from law enforcement agencies, but only if those agencies meet the standards for obtaining personal data consistent with local laws and data protection requirements.

Finally, we may provide your information to one or more third parties in the event of a merger, acquisition, or corporate reorganisation involving us.

How long do we keep your information?

We only retain your personal data for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it is provided or because we are legally required to do so.

What happens when you submit a deletion request?

This is a permanent change that cannot be undone.

How do we protect your information?

We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards designed to help us protect your personal data.

In addition, we train the employees that are involved with the processing of your data such as our Customer Care agents, software developers, data analytics team and operators in our production facility about the importance of confidentiality and maintaining the privacy and security of your information. Our awareness training is tailored to the specific role of a team or department and their involvement with handling your information.

When you establish an account at VistaPrint, you choose a password to help protect your account information. You should select a strong password and keep it safe by not sharing it with others. You may change the password as often as you wish by going to 'My Account' and selecting 'Account Settings.'
