Privacy notice

For our waiting list. Last updated 9 November 2026.

Who we are

Me in Colour is run by Monica Restrepo as a sole trader, based in Suffolk, England. For anything about your information, email hello@meincolour.co.uk.

What we collect on this page

When you join our waiting list we collect your email address and, if you choose to give them, your first name and who your book would be for. We do not collect any photos on this page.

Why we use it

We use your details only to email you when Me in Colour opens for orders, to send your founding family discount, and to send a few Christmas reminders. Our lawful basis is your consent, which you give by ticking the box on the form. You can withdraw it at any time by replying to any of our emails or emailing us, and we will remove you.

Who can see it

Your details are stored by Netlify, the company that hosts our website, and in our business email account with Google. These providers act on our instructions and may store information outside the UK, protected by the safeguards UK data protection law requires. We never sell your details or share them with anyone for their own marketing.

How long we keep it

We keep your details until you unsubscribe, or for 12 months after we open for orders if you have not ordered, then we delete them.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you, or object to how we use it. Email us and we will reply within one month. If you are unhappy with how we handle your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.

Photos, when we open

Before we open for orders we will publish a full privacy notice explaining exactly how we look after the photos you send us, including our promise to delete your original photos as soon as you approve the drawings.
