Does Squffy sell my data to third parties?

No. We only share data with partners necessary for delivery and service, under a data processing agreement.

Is data stored outside Europe?

Our main servers are in the EU. Some analytics services partially process data in the US, under Standard Contractual Clauses or the Data Privacy Framework.

Your dog's name, font, thread color, and dog pin choices are stored on the order so we can produce it correctly and reorder it later if you want. We don't use these details for marketing.
