Privacy Policy:
Last updated: March 2026
My Upside-down Umbrella (“My Upside-down Umbrella”) operates myupsidedownumbrella.com and related websites, including our online store and membership sites. We are committed to respecting your privacy and protecting the personal information you share with us.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, we collect non-personally-identifying information automatically provided by web browsers and servers, such as browser type, language preference, referring site, and date/time of each visitor request. This helps us understand how visitors use our websites. Aggregate information may occasionally be published to report trends, but it does not identify individual users.
We may also collect potentially personally-identifying information such as IP addresses for logged-in users and those leaving comments on our blog. Commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible to site administrators only.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Visitors may interact with My Upside-down Umbrella in ways that require personal information. The amount and type of information collected depends on the nature of the interaction:
Email Sign-Ups: We may ask for a username and email address. If you provide your email, we may send emails about your purchase, product updates, or occasional newsletters. You may unsubscribe at any time via the link included in our emails. Email subscriptions are processed by a trusted third-party provider.
Transactions & Purchases: If you purchase a product, we may collect additional information necessary to process the transaction, including name, email, billing and shipping addresses, payment information, IP address, and purchase history. Payment transactions are processed by secure third-party providers. We do not store or have access to your full credit card information.
All personal information is collected only as needed to fulfill the purpose of your interaction with us. You may refuse to provide information, but this may limit your ability to use certain features of the website.
Digital Products
Some products offered on this website are digital downloads. When you purchase a digital product, we collect only the information necessary to process your order and deliver the product. Your information is used solely for the transaction, delivery, and customer support. Purchase records may be retained for accounting, legal, and support purposes.
Aggregated Statistics
We may collect statistics about website usage. Aggregated statistics may be displayed publicly or shared with third parties. No personally-identifying information is included in these reports.
Protection of Personal Information
We disclose personal information only to employees, contractors, and trusted service providers who need the information to provide services on our behalf. Some of these may be located outside of your home country; by using our websites, you consent to such transfers. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Personal information may only be disclosed in response to a subpoena, court order, government request, or when reasonably necessary to protect our property, rights, or the public.
Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of information stored on your device by your browser each time you visit our site. We use cookies and similar technologies for analytics, website functionality, and marketing purposes. Visitors can manage cookie preferences through browser settings or a cookie consent banner. Certain website features may not function properly without cookies. By using our website, you consent to our use of cookies in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Third-Party Services
We may use trusted third-party services to help operate our website, including analytics, payment processing, and email communications. These providers only access information necessary to perform their services.
Payments on our store are processed through secure third-party payment providers. We do not store or have access to your full credit card information. Payment processors handle payment information in accordance with their own privacy policies.
Ads
Ads on our websites may be delivered by advertising partners who may set cookies. These cookies help ad servers recognize your computer to deliver targeted advertisements. This Privacy Policy does not cover cookies set by advertisers.
Business Transfers
In the event My Upside-down Umbrella or its assets are acquired, or if we go out of business or enter bankruptcy, personal information may be transferred to the new owner. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and the acquiring party may continue to use your information as described here.

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the rights listed below in relation to your personal information. However, these rights are not absolute, may apply only in certain circumstances and, in certain cases, we may decline your request as permitted by law.

You can exercise your rights to opt-out of those uses here. Please note that if you visit our website with the Global Privacy Control opt-out preference signal enabled, depending on where you are, we will automatically treat this as a request to opt-out for the device and browser that you use to visit the website. If we are able to associate the device sending the signal to a Shopify account, we will apply the opt out request to the account as well.

Other than the Global Privacy Control, we do not recognize other “Do Not Track” signals that may be sent from your web browser or device.
- Managing Communication Preferences. We may send you promotional emails, and you may opt out of receiving these at any time by using the unsubscribe option displayed in our emails to you. If you opt out, we may still send you non-promotional emails, such as those about your account or orders that you have made.
If you reside in the UK or European Economic Area, and subject to exceptions and limitations provided by local law, you may exercise the following rights in addition to the rights outlined above:
- Objection to Processing and Restriction of Processing: You may have the right to ask us to stop or restrict our processing of personal information for certain purposes.
- Withdrawal of Consent: Where we rely on consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw this consent. If you withdraw your consent, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing based on your consent before its withdrawal.
You may exercise any of these rights where indicated on the Services or by contacting us at: aretta@myupsidedownumbrella.com
