Privacy Policy
SECTION 1 – WHAT DO WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION?
When you make a purchase from our store, we gather the personal details you provide, including your name, address, and email address.
Additionally, when you browse our store, we automatically collect your computer’s IP address to help us understand your browser and operating system.
Email Marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products, and other updates.
SECTION 2 – CONSENT
How is consent obtained?
By providing personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for delivery, or return an item, you consent to our use of that information for these purposes.
If we seek your personal information for additional reasons, such as marketing, we will either request your explicit consent or offer you the option to refuse.
How do I withdraw my consent?
If you decide to withdraw consent after opting in, you can do so at any time by contacting us at [email protected].
SECTION 3 – DISCLOSURE
We may disclose your personal information if required by law or if you breach our Terms of Service.
SECTION 4 – PAYMENT
When using a direct payment gateway to process your purchase, your credit card information is encrypted according to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Transaction data is retained only as necessary to complete the purchase and is deleted afterward.
All direct payment gateways comply with PCI-DSS standards, managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which includes Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.
PCI-DSS standards ensure secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.
Your data is stored on a secure server protected by a firewall.
SECTION 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
Third-party providers we use generally collect, use, and disclose your information only to the extent necessary to provide their services.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we provide. We recommend reviewing their policies to understand how your personal information is managed.
Some providers may be located in or operate from different jurisdictions. If you engage with third-party services, your information might be subject to the laws of those jurisdictions.
For instance, if you are based in Canada and your transaction is handled by a U.S.-based payment gateway, your information might be subject to U.S. laws, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party site, our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service no longer apply.
