Security and fraud prevention. We use your personal information to detect, investigate, or take action regarding possible fraudulent, illegal, or harmful activities. If you choose to use the Services and register an account, you are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure. We strongly recommend that you do not share your username, password, or other access details with anyone else. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately.

Cookies

Like many websites, we use cookies on our site. For specific information about the cookies we use in connection with managing our store with Shopify, see https://www.shopify.com/legal/cookies. We use cookies to manage and improve our Site and Services (including to remember your actions and preferences), to perform analytics and better understand user interaction with the Services (in our legitimate interest to administer, improve, and optimize the Services). We may also allow third parties and service providers to use cookies on our Site to better personalize services, products, and advertising on our Site and other websites.

Most browsers automatically accept cookies by default, but you can choose to set your browser to remove or reject cookies through your browser controls. Please note that removing or blocking cookies may negatively impact your user experience and may cause some Services, including some general features and functionalities, to not work properly or be unavailable. Additionally, blocking cookies may not completely prevent how we share information with third parties, such as our advertising partners.

Our website also recognizes the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, which allows you to opt out of certain uses or disclosures of your information. If you communicate your preference to us via GPC, we will treat that signal as a valid request to opt out of sharing/targeted advertising for the associated browser or device, and if we are able to associate the device sending the signal with your Shopify account, we will apply the opt-out request to the account as well. To learn more about Global Privacy Control, you can visit https://globalprivacycontrol.org/. In addition to Global Privacy Control, we do not recognize other “Do Not Track” signals that may be sent by your web browser or device.

How we disclose your personal information

In certain circumstances, we may disclose your personal information to third parties for contractual fulfillment purposes, legitimate purposes, and other reasons subject to this Privacy Policy. Such circumstances may include:

with vendors or other third parties who perform services on our behalf (e.g., IT management, payment processing, data analysis, customer support, cloud storage, order fulfillment, and shipping).
With business and marketing partners to provide services and advertise to you. Our business and marketing partners will use your information in accordance with their privacy policies.
When you direct us, request us, or otherwise consent to our disclosure of certain information to third parties, such as to ship products to you or through the use of social media widgets or login credential integrations, with your consent.
With our affiliates or otherwise within our corporate group, in our legitimate interest to run a successful business.
In connection with a business transaction, such as a merger or bankruptcy, to comply with any applicable legal obligations (including responding to subpoenas, search warrants, and similar requests), to enforce any applicable terms of service, and to protect or defend the Services, our rights, and the rights of our users or others.

Third-party websites and links

Our Site may provide links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow links to sites not affiliated with or controlled by us, you should review their privacy and security policies and other terms and conditions. We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy or security of such sites, including the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information found on these sites. Information provided in public or semi-public places, including information shared on third-party social network platforms, may also be visible to other users of the Services and/or users of such third-party platforms without limitations regarding their use by us or a third party. The inclusion of such links by us does not imply, by itself, any endorsement of the content of such platforms or their owners or operators, except as disclosed on the Services.

Children’s data

The Services are not intended for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with their personal information, you can contact us using the contact details below to request its deletion.

As of the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we are not aware that we “share” or “sell” (as defined by applicable law) personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.

Security and retention of your information

Please note that no security measure is perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee “perfect security.” Additionally, any information you submit to us may not be secure during transmission. We advise against using unsecured channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us.

How long we retain your personal information depends on several factors, such as whether we need the information to maintain your account, provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce other applicable contracts and policies.
