Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 3, 2025
Summer Skye Studio operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services, in order to provide you with a curated shopping experience (the “Services”). Summer Skye Studio is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.
This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information when you visit, use, or make a purchase using the Services, or otherwise communicate with us. If there is a conflict between our Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy, this Privacy Policy controls with respect to the collection, processing, and disclosure of your personal information.
By using and accessing the Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

Transaction details: orders, returns, exchanges, wishlists.

Contract – to provide the Services you request (e.g. fulfilling orders).
Consent – where you have given us permission (e.g. email marketing).
Legal obligation – to comply with laws such as tax or consumer protection.
Legitimate interests – to improve Services, prevent fraud, or communicate with you in ways that do not override your rights.
