Privacy Policy

What we collect, what we don't, and who to email if you want it gone. Short version: we collect almost nothing.

01

Who we are

The Handbag Collective is an editorial and shopping publication. For any privacy question or request, email hello@thehandbagcollective.com and we will respond.

02

What we collect

Bag contents. The handbags you add to your bag are stored in your browser's local storage so your bag survives a refresh. This stays on your device; we do not receive a copy until you choose to check out.

Checkout data. Payments, addresses and order details are collected by our partner store's checkout, not by us. We never see or store your card details.

Basic technical records. Like most websites, our hosting records standard technical logs (such as page requests and approximate location at country level) to keep the site running and secure.

03

What we don't collect

No accounts, no passwords, no mailing-list sign-ups, no advertising trackers, no sale of data to anyone. We do not ask for your name unless you email us first.

04

The AI Stylist

When you request a look, the words you type are sent to our AI systems to generate the styled photograph and recommendations. Your input is used to produce that one result and is not used to build a profile of you. The recommended bags come from our own curated product list.

05

Cookies and local storage

We use browser local storage for your bag contents and for a random visitor number that lets us count visits and page views on our own site. That number is not linked to your name, email or IP address and is never shared. We do not run advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

06

Your rights

You can clear your bag contents at any time by clearing your browser's site data for this site. If you have emailed us and want your correspondence deleted, or you have any other request about your data, email hello@thehandbagcollective.com and we will act on it.

07

Changes

If this policy changes, the date at the top will change with it. Material changes will be called out plainly.
