Who we are
This policy explains what Averlin Ltd. does with your personal information when you visit averlin.com, buy from us, or write to us.

- Monogram text, where you've asked for personalisation.

California residents. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA/CPRA, and we do not use sensitive personal information for inferring characteristics. You will never be treated differently for exercising a privacy right.
Security & transfers
The site runs over TLS. Payment data is tokenised by our processor and never touches our servers. Access to customer records is limited to the people who need it to do their job, and protected by two-factor authentication.
Where data moves between the United States, the United Kingdom and the EU, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or an equivalent approved safeguard.
Children
The site is not directed at anyone under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has given us information, write to us and we will delete it.
Changes & contact
If this policy changes materially, we'll post the new version here and update the date at the top. Anyone on the newsletter will be told by email.
