This policy describes how Redbarn Wood Turning (Michael Cedoz, Mount Vernon, Ohio) handles information related to redbarnwoodturning.com. It is written for a small craft website: no ad network, no marketing pixels, and no user accounts.

Who is responsible

Redbarn Wood Turning is operated by Michael Cedoz in Mount Vernon, Ohio. For privacy questions, email michael@redbarnwoodturning.com.

What this site does not do

  • It does not require accounts or logins.
  • It does not run third-party advertising or retargeting networks.
  • It does not embed social media tracking pixels on the site itself.
  • It does not knowingly sell personal information.

Information you send on purpose

Contact form

If you use the form on the Contact page, you may submit your name, email address, interest category, and message. That form is processed by a third-party service, FormSubmit (formsubmit.co), which delivers the message to the workshop email inbox.

We use that information only to respond to your inquiry and, if you ask, to discuss commissions, pricing, lead times, or related workshop matters. We do not put form submissions on a public mailing list.

Email

If you write directly to michael@redbarnwoodturning.com, we keep the correspondence as needed to answer you and manage any project that follows. Domain email is delivered through the domain registrar’s mail-forwarding service (Porkbun) to the workshop inbox.

Information collected automatically

Hosting and security (Cloudflare)

This site is hosted and delivered through Cloudflare (Workers / CDN). Like most hosts and CDNs, Cloudflare may process technical request data such as IP address, approximate location derived from IP, browser or device type, requested URL, referrer, and timestamps. Cloudflare uses that data to operate the network, provide security and performance features, and maintain service reliability. See Cloudflare’s own privacy materials for how they process data as a service provider.

Fonts

This site loads fonts from Google Fonts. Your browser may request font files from Google’s servers, which can receive standard technical data (for example IP address and user agent) as part of that request.

Local preference storage

The site may store a light/dark palette choice in your browser’s localStorage under the key redbarn-palette. That value stays on your device and is not sent to us as a profile. You can clear it anytime by clearing site data in your browser.

Cookies

This website does not set first-party analytics cookies. Third-party infrastructure you connect to (for example Cloudflare when loading the site, FormSubmit when you submit the contact form, or Google when fonts load) may use cookies or similar technologies according to their own policies. We do not use those tools to build advertising profiles.

How long information is kept

  • Contact and email messages: kept as long as needed to respond, complete a commission or sale discussion, meet ordinary business record needs, or resolve a dispute, then deleted or archived in the ordinary course of mail handling.
  • Hosting/security logs: retained according to Cloudflare’s standard infrastructure practices; we do not operate a separate long-term visitor tracking database.
  • Palette preference: remains in your browser until you clear it.

Who we share information with

We share information only as needed to run the site and respond to you:

  • Cloudflare — website hosting, content delivery, and security.
  • FormSubmit — contact form delivery when you submit the form.
  • Porkbun — domain registration and email forwarding for the workshop address.
  • Service providers or professionals we engage if necessary (for example an accountant or attorney) under ordinary confidentiality expectations.
  • Legal requirements — if we are required to disclose information by law, court order, or to protect rights, safety, or property.

Links to third-party sites (for example Facebook) leave this website. Those services have their own privacy policies.

Security

We use HTTPS and reputable infrastructure providers. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure. Please avoid sending sensitive financial details through the contact form; use normal secure payment or private channels if a project requires them.

Children

This site is directed at adults interested in woodwork and commissions. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted information through the contact form, email us and we will delete it.

Your choices

  • Do not use the contact form if you prefer not to send name, email, or a message through FormSubmit.
  • Email us instead, or do not contact us at all.
  • Clear browser site data to remove the palette preference.
  • Use browser or network controls to limit third-party requests where available.

If you want us to delete a message you previously sent, email michael@redbarnwoodturning.com and we will make a reasonable effort to remove it from the workshop inbox, subject to ordinary backup and legal retention limits.

U.S. state privacy notices

This is a small, non-tracking craft website. We do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to or deletion of personal information we hold about you (for example messages you sent). To make a request, email michael@redbarnwoodturning.com. We will respond as required by applicable law.

Changes

We may update this policy when the site’s tools or practices change (for example if analytics were added later). The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the site after an update means the revised policy applies to new visits and new messages.
