Pattern and its security?

[Beau2stitch]

Thank you for inviting me. A question about 'Pattern' with its own domain name and its security?

I'm not sure what you are asking about, however, I'm not on Pattern.  I cannot afford another website.

Pattern is a service that Etsy offers for a small amount.

I know Pattern is a service through Etsy, however, I can't afford another payment - not making much as it is.  About 1/3 of my sales go to Etsy, and I still have to cover my production costs.  I usually break even or lose by the end of the year.  Spending more money on another site does not seem affordable.
