Privacy Policy
Last updated November 10, 2026
This website is run by Faith Perkins, an independent Cutco sales representative doing business as Traveling Knife Gal ("Faith," "we," "us"). It is not run by Cutco Corporation or Vector Marketing. This policy explains what information the website collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.
Information you give us
- Requests and forms: your name, phone, email, city and anything you write when you ask for a quote, a sharpening, or an event time.
- Your My Cutco account: your email address and, if you set one, your password (stored only in scrambled, one-way form, never as the password itself). If you turn on an authenticator app, we store the secret it needs in encrypted form.
- Your profile: anything you choose to add, such as your birthday, special dates, wish list, saved block builds and gift plans.
- Photos: if you use "Snap your knives," the photo you upload.
- The Cutco Entrance Exam: your answers, and your name and contact information if you choose to send your results to Faith or enter a drawing.
- Leaderboard: only if you opt in, the display name you pick.
Signing in with Google or Apple
If you choose "Continue with Google" or "Continue with Apple," we receive your name, your email address and an account ID from that company so we can sign you in. We never receive your Google or Apple password, and we do not ask for access to your contacts, files, calendar or anything else in that account.
Information collected automatically
- Sign-in cookies: one cookie keeps you signed in, and a short-lived cookie protects a Google or Apple sign-in while it is in progress. They are needed for the site to work.
- Security details: when you sign in, we record your IP address and browser type with your session to help protect your account. When you finish the Entrance Exam, we record your IP address to help stop fake drawing entries.
- Your browser: the site may briefly remember an item you were saving to your wish list while you sign in. This stays in your browser.
This website does not use advertising cookies or tracking pixels, and it does not use analytics services.
How we use your information
- To answer your requests, schedule sharpenings and events, and help with orders.
- To keep your client record with Faith, including the Cutco pieces you own and your order history, so your My Cutco page shows them.
- To send emails you ask for, such as sign-in links and password resets.
- If Faith turns them on, to send occasional messages such as a birthday note, an anniversary note, a sharpening reminder or a holiday message. Every one of these includes an unsubscribe link.
- To track referral credit when friends you share with become clients.
- To run drawings you choose to enter, under the official rules for that drawing.
- To identify the Cutco pieces in a photo you upload.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your information, and we do not share it for advertising. We share it only with:
- Service providers that run parts of this website for us: our web host, our email delivery service, and an AI image service that looks at photos you upload to "Snap your knives" so it can name the pieces. Each uses your information only to provide that service. Photos are not saved by this website after they are checked.
- Google or Apple, only if you choose to sign in with them.
- Cutco, when Faith places an order for you, so it can be filled and shipped. Cutco's own privacy policy applies to the information it receives.
- Other club members, only if you join the leaderboard: your display name, how many pieces you own and how many friends you brought in. Nothing else.
- Anyone we are required to share with by law.
Your choices
- Update your name, phone and dates any time on your My Cutco page.
- Unsubscribe from website emails with the link at the bottom of any of them.
- Leave the leaderboard any time from your My Cutco page.
- Ask Faith to see, correct or delete the information we have about you, or to close your account, using the contact details below.
How long we keep it
We keep your information while you are a client or have an account, and for as long as needed for orders, warranty and service history, or as the law requires. If you ask us to delete your information, we will, except for records we have to keep.
Security
The site uses an encrypted connection, passwords are stored only in scrambled form, and you can add an authenticator app for extra protection. No website can promise perfect security, so please use a password you don't use anywhere else.
Children
This website is meant for adults. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. Drawings are open only to people 18 and older.
Changes
If we change this policy, we will post the new version here with a new date.
