Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 1, 2026
Souvenir Pixels ("we," "us," "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Souvenir Pixels is a photography business operated by James Wheeler in Courtenay, British Columbia, Canada. This policy applies to information collected through souvenirpixels.com and any related services we provide.
Information We Collect
We collect personal information in a few ways:
Information you give us directly. When you contact us, place an order, or sign up for updates, you may provide your name, email address, shipping address, billing details, and any message you send. When you order a print, we also receive details necessary to fulfill that order.
Information collected automatically. When you visit our site, certain information is collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies. This includes your IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, and how you arrived at the site. This information helps us understand how people use the site and improve it over time.
We don't ask for personal information that isn't necessary to deliver our products and services or improve your experience.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Process and fulfill your print orders
- Communicate with you about orders, inquiries, or service issues
- Send updates or newsletters if you've signed up to receive them
- Understand how the site is used and improve our products and content
- Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights
We do not sell your personal information for money. We do use analytics and advertising cookies — Google Analytics and the Pinterest tag — as described in the "Cookies and Tracking" section below, and you can accept, reject, or change these at any time through the consent choices described there.
How We Share Your Information
To run our business, we work with trusted service providers who may access limited personal information to perform their services. These include:
- Cloudflare Pages — our website host. Cloudflare Pages provides the technical infrastructure and content delivery for souvenirpixels.com. Cloudflare's privacy practices are described in their own privacy policy at cloudflare.com.
- Stripe — our payment processor. Credit card and payment information is handled securely by Stripe. We do not store your full credit card details. Stripe's privacy practices are described at stripe.com.
- Pictorem — our print fulfillment partner. When you order a print, your name and shipping address are shared with Pictorem, who produces and delivers your order. Pictorem operates in Canada and the United States.
- Google — analytics. We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used (aggregated traffic, pages viewed, and how visitors arrive). Google's privacy policy is at policies.google.com/privacy.
- Pinterest — advertising and measurement. The Pinterest tag helps us measure conversions and improve our Pinterest advertising. Pinterest's privacy policy is at pinterest.com/privacy-policy.
We may also disclose information if required by law, court order, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.
Cookies and Tracking
We use a few categories of cookies and similar technologies:
- Essential. Required for core functions like keeping your shopping session active and processing payments securely (Stripe). These are always on.
- Analytics — Google Analytics 4. Sets cookies (such as _ga) to measure aggregated traffic: pages viewed, how visitors arrive, and how the site is used, so we can improve it.
- Marketing — the Pinterest tag. Sets advertising cookies used to measure conversions and improve our Pinterest advertising. This is a cross-site advertising technology.
Your choices depend on where you are. Visitors in the EU, EEA, UK, and Switzerland see a consent banner on arrival, and analytics and marketing cookies are not set until you accept. Visitors in the United States, Canada, and elsewhere have these enabled by default and can opt out at any time using the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer. We also honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal automatically as an opt-out of advertising cookies.
You can change or withdraw your consent whenever you like via those footer links. Most browsers also let you refuse or delete cookies through their settings, though some parts of the site may not function properly if you block essential cookies.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Request that we correct inaccurate information
- Request that we delete your information, subject to certain legal exceptions
- Opt out of marketing emails (every email we send includes an unsubscribe link)
To exercise any of these rights, please use the Contact link at the top of this page. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
US privacy rights — Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information. If you are a US resident (for example under California's CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not sell your information for money, but our use of advertising cookies (the Pinterest tag) may be considered "sharing" under some state laws. To opt out, use the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer, or turn on a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal in your browser — we honor GPC automatically, with no click required.
Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. This includes using secure HTTPS connections for our website and working with reputable service providers who maintain their own security standards. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to minimize risk.
Children's Privacy
Our site and products are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
International Visitors
Our business operates from Canada, and the service providers we work with operate in Canada, the United States, and other regions. If you visit from elsewhere — including the European Union, the United Kingdom, or other regions with their own privacy laws — your information may be transferred to and processed in Canada, the United States, or other countries where our providers operate. By using the site, you consent to that transfer.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time as our practices evolve or as required by law. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. Material changes will be noted prominently on the site.
