Privacy Policy
Last updated: 4 June 2026
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Martin Bekkhus, a sole trader established in Sweden and trading as Butikk (“Butikk”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects personal data when you use butikk.app and related services (the “Service”) — a platform that lets creators and businesses build a storefront page to share links, sell products, and take bookings.
We are committed to protecting your personal data and processing it in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Swedish data protection law.
2. Who we are (Data Controller)
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Controller | Martin Bekkhus (sole trader, Sweden), trading as Butikk — butikk.app |
| Privacy contact | hello@butikk.app |
We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer; privacy enquiries are handled by the contact above.
3. Who this policy applies to — and our role
This policy covers three groups:
- Account holders (“Sellers”) — people who register and build a storefront.
- Customers (“Buyers”) — people who buy products or book sessions through a Seller’s page.
- Visitors — anyone who views a public Butikk page.
Our role. We are the data controller for operating the platform, billing Sellers, securing the Service, and our own analytics and marketing. When a Buyer purchases from or books with a Seller, that Seller is an independent controller of their customer relationship, and we act as a data processor on the Seller’s behalf for storing that order and booking data. Each Seller is responsible for their own privacy practices toward their customers.
4. Personal data we collect
From Sellers:
- Identity & account: name, email address, and authentication credentials (passwords are stored hashed by our authentication provider — we never see them).
- Profile content you publish: display name, handle, bio, avatar image, social links, and the products, prices, and images you upload.
- Billing data: your subscription and payment details, processed by Stripe (see §7). We receive confirmation of payment and limited billing metadata, not your full card number.
- Usage data: how you interact with the dashboard.
From Buyers:
- Name, email address, and the details of your order or booking (item, quantity, booking time, amount).
- Payment is processed directly by Stripe (including Klarna). Butikk does not store your full card number.
From Visitors (automatically):
- Device and usage data: IP address, browser type, pages viewed, referring page, and approximate location.
- Cookies and similar technologies (see §6).

8. International data transfers
Some recipients process data outside the EU/EEA (e.g., in the United States). Where they do, we rely on appropriate safeguards: the EU-US Data Privacy Framework where applicable, and the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses with supplementary measures. You can request a copy of these safeguards via our privacy contact.

10. Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to: access your data; rectify inaccurate data; request erasure; restrict or object to processing; data portability; and withdraw consent at any time.
To exercise any right, email hello@butikk.app. We respond within one month. For requests about data held by a Seller about you as their customer, please also contact that Seller directly.
You may lodge a complaint with the Swedish supervisory authority: Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten (IMY) — Box 8114, 104 20 Stockholm — imy.se
11. Security
We use technical and organisational measures including encryption in transit, access controls, row-level security on our database, and hashed credentials. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your data and will notify you and the authorities of a qualifying breach as required by law.
12. Children
The Service is intended for users aged 18 and over and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.
13. Third-party links
Seller storefronts contain links to external sites and social platforms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties; review their policies separately.
14. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version here with an updated date and, for material changes, notify Sellers by email.
