Relationship with Shopify
The Services are hosted by Shopify. Shopify collects and processes personal information about your access to and use of the Services to provide and improve the Services. Information you provide through the Services will be transmitted to and shared with Shopify and third parties located outside your country of residence to provide services to you and to improve the Services. We also use certain advanced Shopify features that leverage data and information derived from your interactions with our Store, other merchants, and Shopify in order to protect, grow, and improve our business. To provide these advanced features, Shopify may use personal information collected about your interactions with our Store, other merchants, and Shopify. In these cases, Shopify is responsible for processing your personal information and for responding to your requests to exercise your rights regarding such use. For more information on how Shopify uses your personal information and the rights you may have, see Shopify’s Consumer Privacy Policy. Depending on where you live, you may exercise certain rights regarding your personal information via the Shopify Privacy Portal.
Third-Party Websites and Links
The Services may contain links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow links to sites that are not affiliated with or controlled by us, you should review those sites’ privacy and security policies and other terms and conditions. We do not guarantee, and accept no responsibility for, the privacy or security of such sites—including the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information on those sites. Information you provide in public or semi-public areas—including on third-party social media platforms—may be visible to other users of the Services and/or users of those third-party platforms, and may be used by us or third parties without restriction. Unless expressly stated on the Services, the presence of such links does not constitute our endorsement of those platforms or their owners/operators.
Children’s Data
The Services are not intended for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction. If you believe your child has provided personal information to us, you may contact us using the information below to request that it be deleted. As of the Effective Date of this Privacy Policy, we have no actual knowledge of “sharing” or “selling” personal information of individuals under 16 years of age as those terms are defined by applicable law.
Security and Retention of Your Information
Please note that no security measure is perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee “perfect security.” Information you transmit to us may also be insecure in transit. Accordingly, we recommend that you do not use insecure communication channels to send sensitive or confidential information to us.
How long we retain personal information depends on various factors, including whether we need the information to maintain your account, provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce other applicable agreements and policies.

If we can associate the device sending the signal with a specific Shopify account, we will apply the opt-out to that account as well. Learn more about GPC at: https://globalprivacycontrol.org/. Apart from GPC, we do not recognize “Do Not Track” signals sent by browsers or devices.
-
Managing Communication Preferences. You can opt out of promotional emails at any time by using the unsubscribe option in those emails. If you opt out, we may still send non-promotional emails, such as those about your account or orders you have placed.
If you reside in the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, and subject to the exceptions and limitations under local law, you may also have the following rights:
-
Right to Object/Restrict Processing. You may have the right to ask us to stop or limit processing of your personal information for certain purposes.
-
Right to Withdraw Consent. Where we process your personal information based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Your withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before it was withdrawn.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. To the extent permitted or required by law, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request. As permitted by applicable law, you may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf. Before we accept such a request from an agent, we will require proof that they are authorized to act for you, and we may require you to verify your identity directly with us. We will respond to your request within a reasonable time in accordance with applicable law.
Complaints
If you have a complaint about how we process your personal information, please contact us using the information below.

International Transfers
Please note that we may transfer, store, and process your personal information outside your country of residence.
When we transfer personal information outside the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we rely on recognized transfer mechanisms—such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent instruments issued by the competent UK authority—unless we transfer to a country deemed to provide an adequate level of protection.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will post the revised Privacy Policy on this website, update the “Last Updated” date, and provide any legally required notices.
