Last updated: 14/11/2025

At Peaceful Next Steps, your privacy matters. This policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have under UK data protection law (UK GDPR).

Information you provide directly

  • Payment details (processed securely by PayPal)

  • Contact form submissions (such as questions or requests for support)

Information collected automatically

Our website may use cookies or similar tools to help it function.
You indicated that you're not sure if tracking tools are used.
Because of this, we will include a default statement:

  • Basic functional cookies may be used to ensure the site works properly

PayPal may process your data according to their own Privacy Policy.
We recommend reviewing their policy for more information.

4. Sharing Your Information

We only share your information with:

  • Payment processors (PayPal) — to process your order

  • Service providers — only where necessary to operate the website (e.g., hosting providers)

We do not share your information with advertisers or unrelated third parties.

5. Cookies

Our website may use basic cookies to ensure it works correctly.
If we introduce analytics, tracking, or marketing cookies in the future, this policy — and our cookie banner — will be updated to reflect those changes.

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary:

  • Order information: up to 6 years (for tax and accounting requirements)
