PrintableLabelMaker.com (“PrintableLabelMaker,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides online tools for creating, customizing, and printing labels and stickers, together with template directories, educational content, and links to third-party products (collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you visit or use our website at printablelabelmaker.com (the “Site”).
By using the Site, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy. Please also review our Terms of Use.
1. Information we collect
We may collect or process the following categories of information, depending on how you interact with the Site:
- Information you provide: Your name (if provided), email address, message, issue category, and other information you choose to submit through a contact or issue-report form.
- Technical and usage information: Browser type, device information, operating system, pages viewed, approximate location derived from an IP address, referring pages, and interactions with Site features. Our hosting provider and configured analytics services may process some of this information automatically.
- Shopping-link information: When you select a retailer link, we may record the merchant, product or template identifier, location of the link on the Site, and whether a referral link or redirect was used.
- Browser-stored information: Certain settings, temporary designs, and interface preferences may be retained in your browser through local storage, IndexedDB, or similar technologies where those features are enabled.
We do not require a user account to use the current label-making tools. Please do not include confidential personal information in contact messages, issue reports, or label designs unless you are comfortable handling that information in your browser.
2. Label designs, text, and uploaded images
Our label and sticker tools are designed to perform the normal editing, previewing, and file-export workflow in your browser. You may enter text, upload images, create QR codes, and generate files such as PDF, SVG, or PNG.
We do not intentionally transmit the contents of your label artwork, uploaded images, or typed label text to our analytics services. However, your browser, device, extensions, and any third-party features you choose to use are outside our direct control. Some editor features may retain data in your browser; you can generally remove browser-stored information using the applicable reset controls or your browser settings.
If you voluntarily include label content or an image in a contact message or issue report, that submitted information may be received and processed as part of the message.
3. How we use information
We use information as reasonably necessary to:
- Operate, maintain, secure, and troubleshoot the Site and its tools.
- Respond to questions, support requests, and reports of inaccurate templates or other issues.
- Understand aggregate traffic, feature usage, and website performance.
- Measure interactions with links to Avery, Amazon, and other third-party websites.
- Detect abuse, prevent fraud, and comply with applicable legal obligations.
- Improve our tools, templates, documentation, and other content.
We do not use information you submit through a contact form to send unrelated marketing emails unless you separately agree to receive them.
4. Cookies and similar technologies
The Site and third-party services may use cookies, browser storage, pixels, or similar technologies for essential functionality, analytics, and measurement. The technologies used depend on the services configured and enabled at the time of your visit.
For example, we may use Google Tag Manager to manage website tags and Google Analytics 4 to understand Site traffic and interactions. These services may collect device and browser information, online identifiers, and usage data and may set or read cookies. Read how Google uses information from sites and apps that use its services.
Some optional typefaces may be loaded from Google Fonts, which can result in your browser connecting to Google-operated services. Our hosting provider may also process ordinary server logs for security, troubleshooting, and delivery of the Site.
You can manage or delete cookies and website data through your browser settings. Where required by applicable law, additional consent or opt-out choices may be available. Disabling certain technologies may affect some Site features. Browser controls alone may not prevent every form of measurement.
5. Analytics and outbound-link measurement
When analytics is configured, we may measure page views, navigation, tool use, and clicks on shopping or template links. An outbound-link event may include a retailer name, a public template or product number, the page section where the click occurred, and a general link category.
We do not intentionally include the contents of label designs, uploaded images, contact messages, or affiliate tracking codes in these analytics events. Third-party analytics providers process data according to their own policies and our applicable configurations.
6. Advertising and affiliate links
Some pages contain links to products offered by retailers or manufacturers, including Avery and Amazon. We may receive compensation for qualifying purchases or other actions when an affiliate arrangement applies. This generally does not change the price you pay.
When we participate in the Amazon Associates program, the required disclosure may appear near eligible product links. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. This statement applies only when we are participating in that program.
When you follow a shopping link, the destination website may collect information under its own privacy policy. Referral parameters may be included in a link to identify the source of a visit. We do not control the privacy practices of third-party retailers.
We may introduce advertising in the future. If we do, we will update this policy as needed to reflect material changes in data collection, advertising partners, and privacy choices.
7. Contact forms and issue reports
If you send a message or report a problem, we may process the details you submit, including any optional email address and the URL of the page you are reporting. Forms may be processed by our hosting or form-submission provider and may use spam-prevention technologies.
We use these submissions to respond, investigate technical problems, improve the Site, and maintain records where necessary. Please do not send passwords, payment-card data, government-issued identifiers, or sensitive label contents through our forms.
8. Service providers and information sharing
We may share limited information with service providers acting on our behalf, such as hosting companies, website analytics providers, spam-prevention services, and form processors. These providers may need access to information to deliver their services, maintain security, or provide support.
We may also disclose information when required by law, to respond to valid legal requests, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a business transfer or reorganization.
We do not operate the Site as a data brokerage service or intentionally sell your contact-form submissions for money. Certain disclosures to analytics or advertising providers may nevertheless be treated as a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising under some privacy laws. Where those laws apply, we will address the applicable notice and choice requirements.
9. Retention of information
We retain information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy, including operating the Site, resolving requests, maintaining security, and meeting legal obligations. Retention periods may vary based on the category of data, the applicable service provider, and legal requirements.
Information stored only in your browser is generally controlled through your browser’s storage settings or the Site’s available reset functionality. Removing browser data does not necessarily delete information previously submitted through a form.
10. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures appropriate to the nature of the information we handle. However, no website, transmission, storage system, or security measure can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You are responsible for using a secure device, keeping appropriate backups of important work, and reviewing files before sharing or printing them.
11. Your privacy rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or information about certain personal data. You may also have rights to object to or restrict certain processing, withdraw consent when consent is the legal basis, or opt out of qualifying sales, sharing, or targeted advertising.
To make a request, please use our contact page and identify the request as a privacy inquiry. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests, and exceptions may apply under the law.
You can also adjust cookie and tracking settings in your browser, subject to the limitations described above. If we provide a dedicated consent or privacy-preferences control, you may use it to update eligible choices.
12. International visitors
The Site may be accessed from different countries. Information processed by our hosting, analytics, and other service providers may be transferred to or stored in countries other than your own. Applicable safeguards and rights depend on the services used and the laws that apply to the processing.
13. Children’s privacy
The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through the Site. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us so that we can review the situation and take appropriate action.
14. Third-party websites and services
The Site may link to manufacturers, retailers, font providers, and other websites not operated by us. Their content, terms, and privacy practices are separate from ours. We encourage you to review their policies before providing personal information or making a purchase.
15. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our tools, service providers, legal requirements, or business practices. The “Last updated” date shown at the top of this page indicates when it was most recently revised. Material changes may be communicated through the Site or another appropriate channel.
