Crafter Story (“we,” “us,” or “our”) publishes real stories submitted by marketplace sellers at crafterstory.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
When you submit a story through our “Submit Your Story” form, we collect the information you provide: your name (or the byline you’d like used), email address, the marketplace(s) you sell on, your story text, and any photos you choose to include. We use your email address only to communicate with you about your submission — to ask follow-up questions, confirm details, or let you know when (or whether) your story is published.
Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically log standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited, in order to operate and secure the Site.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies and similar local-storage technology to run this Site. These include cookies needed for basic functionality (such as remembering that you’ve responded to our cookie banner) and, where enabled, analytics cookies that help us understand which pages are read and how visitors navigate the Site.
When you first visit the Site, a banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored in your browser so we don’t ask again on future visits. You can clear this choice at any time by clearing your browser’s site data for crafterstory.com, or by using your browser’s cookie controls to block or delete cookies generally, which may affect how parts of the Site function.
How We Use Information
- To review, edit, and publish story submissions
- To contact submitters about their story
- To operate, maintain, and improve the Site
- To understand which content is useful to readers
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
Third-Party Tools and Links
Stories published on this Site may reference or link to marketplaces (like Etsy, eBay, Amazon, or TikTok Shop) and other third-party tools. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third-party sites — please review their own privacy policies before providing them with information.
Your Choices
You are never required to submit a story to browse the Site. If you’d like us to correct, update, or remove information you’ve submitted (including a previously published story), contact us at hello@crafterstory.com.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
