How should I save to the database? - html

Question

I have created a Customer model in Django and am not able to save the data to the database table and when I click the signup button it just redirects me back to the home page.
I have attached below the customer model and the signup function.
...please help me resolve the issue.
customer.py
from django.db import models
class Customer(models.Model):
first_name= models.CharField(max_length=50)
last_name= models.CharField(max_length=50)
phone=models.CharField(max_length=15)
email=models.EmailField()
password=models.CharField(max_length=500)
def register(self):
self.save()
views.py
def signup(request):
if request.method == 'GET':
return render(request, 'signup.html')
else:
postData=request.POST
first_name=postData.get('firstname')
last_name=postData.get('lastname')
phone=postData.get('phone')
email=postData.get('email')
password=postData.get('password')
print(first_name,last_name,phone,email,password)
customer=Customer(first_name=first_name,last_name=last_name,phone=phone,email=email,password=password)
customer.register()
return HttpResponse("Signup success")
signup.html
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% block content %}
