Privacy Policy

How Eighteen Craft collects, uses and protects the information you share through this website. Last updated September 18, 2026.

In short: we collect the business contact and sourcing details you submit, use them to quote and run your order, never sell them, process them in China, and delete them on request. Questions go to info@eighteencraft.com.

1. Introduction and scope

Eighteen Craft is a bag and luggage OEM and ODM manufacturer based in Huaibei, Anhui, China. This privacy policy explains what data we collect through this website, how we use it, and what rights you have over it.

It covers every part of the site: the inquiry and quotation forms, the bag cost calculator, and general browsing. Our visitors are overseas business buyers — brand owners, e-commerce sellers, wholesalers, retailers and trading companies — submitting sourcing and quotation requests, so the data we handle is business contact information rather than consumer profiles.

You can read about the company behind this policy on our about page, and about the services that generate this data on our OEM and ODM services page.

2. Information we collect

Eighteen Craft collects only the information you voluntarily submit, plus standard technical data generated by visiting a website.

Information you provide

  • Business contact details: name, company name, work email address and phone number
  • Sourcing details: country, bag category of interest, estimated order quantity, target unit price and customisation type
  • The free-text message you write, including any product descriptions or specifications you choose to include
  • Any selections you carry over from the bag cost calculator into an inquiry

Information collected automatically

  • IP address and approximate country, recorded with inquiry submissions for security and spam prevention
  • Browser type, device type, pages visited and referring source
  • Cookie and analytics identifiers where analytics tools are enabled

3. How we use your information

We use your information to respond to you and to run the business relationship you initiated — nothing else.

Purposes

  • Responding to sourcing inquiries and preparing quotations
  • Developing samples, proposals and specifications for your project
  • Managing production, shipping and order communication once a project starts
  • Preventing spam and abusive submissions
  • Understanding which pages are useful so we can improve the website

Lawful bases (GDPR)

  • Performance of a contract or steps taken at your request prior to a contract — quotations, samples and orders
  • Legitimate interest — responding to business-to-business inquiries and protecting the site from abuse
  • Consent — where you have opted in to receive marketing communications

Eighteen Craft does not sell or share your personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising, as those terms are defined under the CCPA and CPRA.

4. Cookies and analytics

This website uses a limited set of cookies, grouped into three categories.

Cookie categories

  • Essential cookies — required for the site to function, including form security and spam protection
  • Analytics and performance cookies — aggregate usage statistics where an analytics tool is enabled by the site owner
  • Functional cookies — remembering preferences such as a dismissed cookie notice

You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time; essential functions such as form submission may be affected. Where your browser or extension sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as a valid opt-out request for sale or sharing of personal information.

5. How we share information

Eighteen Craft does not sell your data and does not share it with unrelated advertisers.

We share information only with service providers that make the website and our correspondence work — website hosting and infrastructure, email delivery, spam protection and, where enabled, web analytics. These providers process data on our instructions and only for those purposes.

We may also disclose information where we are legally required to do so, or where necessary to establish or defend a legal claim.

Because we are a manufacturer in China serving overseas buyers, inquiry data is received and processed in China. See the next section for what that means for you.

6. International data transfers

When you submit an inquiry from Europe, North America, Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia or the Middle East, your data is transmitted to and processed in China, where Eighteen Craft operates.

We handle that transfer on the basis that it is necessary to perform the contract or to take pre-contractual steps you have requested — you are asking a Chinese factory to quote your product, which cannot happen without the data reaching us. Where appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses are required for a particular arrangement, we will put them in place.

We limit transferred data to what is needed to respond to you and run your order. If you would prefer not to transmit certain details, you can omit them from the form and provide them later through a channel you are comfortable with.

7. Data retention and security

We keep inquiry and quotation data only as long as it serves the business relationship or a legal obligation.

In practice, that means active inquiries and order records are retained while the relationship is live and for a reasonable period afterwards for warranty, accounting and legal purposes. Inquiries that never progress are deleted once they are clearly no longer relevant.

We protect data with access controls limited to staff who need it, secure hosting infrastructure and encrypted transmission. We make no claim to hold any security certification or third-party audit — we hold none, and we will not imply otherwise. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

8. Your privacy rights

You have rights over the data we hold about you, and exercising them costs nothing.

If you are in the EU, UK or EEA (GDPR)

  • Right of access to the personal data we hold about you
  • Right to rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data
  • Right to erasure of your data
  • Right to restrict or object to processing
  • Right to data portability
  • Right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

If you are in California (CCPA / CPRA)

  • Right to know what personal information is collected, used and disclosed
  • Right to delete personal information we hold about you
  • Right to correct inaccurate personal information
  • Right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information — we do not sell or share it
  • Right to non-discrimination for exercising any of these rights

To exercise any right, email info@eighteencraft.com with the request and the email address or company name you used. We will verify the request — usually by confirming details from the original correspondence — and respond within the timeframe required by the applicable law, generally within 30 days. If a request is unusually complex we will tell you and explain the delay.

9. Children's privacy

This website and our services are intended for business buyers and are not directed to children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a minor has submitted information through this site, contact us and we will delete it.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our practices or the applicable law change.

Any revised version is posted on this page with an updated date at the top. Where a change materially affects how we use data you have already provided, we will notify affected contacts directly where we are required to do so. This version was last updated on September 18, 2026.

Privacy questions and rights requests go to the same address as everything else — we are a small team and there is no separate department to route around.
