Distressed Works
Website: https://distressedworks.com/privacy-policy/
Effective date: October 12, 2026

1. About this policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Distressed Works ("we," "us," or "our") handles information when you visit distressedworks.com, including its Millions. Billions. Trillions. collection and related articles. The website showcases T-shirt designs and links to third-party shopping pages. This policy applies to the Distressed Works website, not to websites operated by Amazon or other third parties.

The business operating this website is Niko Stanford, operating as Distressed Works. For privacy questions, contact us at distressedworks@gmail.com.

2. Information we may receive

Information generated by a visit. To deliver and protect the website, our hosting platform, web server, and WordPress installation may process technical information such as an IP address, browser or device details, requested pages, referral information, access times, and error or security logs. The precise information retained depends on the hosting and security settings in use.

Information you voluntarily send. If you email our published contact address, we receive your email address, any name you provide, and the contents of your message so we can respond.

Current website features. The initial website does not include customer accounts, direct checkout, public comments, a newsletter signup, or a visitor contact form. If these features change, we will update this policy.

3. How information is used

We use information as reasonably necessary to display the website, maintain its functionality, protect it from abuse, diagnose errors, respond to inquiries, understand website usage, improve our content, comply with legal obligations, and operate the service.

4. Cookies and analytics

WordPress, hosting services, or security functionality may use essential cookies or similar technology for site operation, administration, or protection. Any administrator login cookies are used for authorized site management rather than customer shopping accounts.

Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics through Google Site Kit to understand website traffic and improve our content. Analytics may collect cookie identifiers, pages viewed, referral sources, browser and device information, approximate location, and on-site interactions. Your browser sends information to Google when the tag loads; the information collected depends on the Analytics configuration and your browser settings.

Google processes this information under its applicable terms and privacy policies. Processing may take place outside your country. Learn more at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and Google’s Privacy Policy.

You can manage or delete cookies in your browser. For supported browsers, Google also offers a Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. Browser restrictions and add-ons may affect how analytics functions; they do not necessarily stop essential hosting or security logs.

You can accept or reject optional analytics through our cookie banner and change your choice using the Cookie settings icon. The Google Analytics tag remains blocked until you permit analytics. An essential cookie named wpconsent_preferences remembers your cookie choices for 30 days.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings, although blocking essential cookies may affect certain website functions.

5. Shopping links and Amazon

When you choose to view or buy a T-shirt on Amazon, you leave our website. Amazon controls its own product pages, checkout, account requirements, payment collection, shipping, returns, and related data practices. Distressed Works does not collect payment-card details through this website. Review Amazon's privacy notice and shopping terms before placing an order.

6. When information may be shared

Technical information may be processed by service providers that help host, secure, or maintain this site, including Hostinger and Google Analytics. We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with legal obligations, address suspected misuse, or protect legitimate rights and safety. We do not use the current site as a customer-information brokerage service.

7. Retention and security

We keep information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes above, including operational security, responding to inquiries, or meeting legal obligations. Actual technical-log retention depends on the hosting and security tools selected. We use reasonable safeguards, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.

8. Your privacy choices

You may contact distressedworks@gmail.com to ask what information we hold about you, request correction or deletion when applicable, or raise a privacy concern. We will evaluate requests under applicable law and may need to verify your identity before acting.

9. Children's privacy

This website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not intentionally solicit personal information from children through the features currently offered by the site. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us so we can review the matter.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the website, our providers, or applicable requirements change. The effective date at the top will indicate when the updated policy takes effect.
