Where consent is required by law, we will rely on consent before using information for such purposes. You may withdraw your consent or opt out of marketing communications where applicable.
Security and fraud prevention. We use personal information to provide a secure shopping and payment experience, authenticate accounts where applicable, detect or investigate suspected fraud, abuse, unlawful activity or security incidents, and protect our Services, customers and business.

Where the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") or similar data protection laws apply, we process personal information on one or more of the following legal bases:

Performance of a contract, including processing and fulfilling your order, accepting payment, arranging delivery and handling returns.
Compliance with legal obligations, including accounting, tax, consumer protection and other regulatory requirements.
Our legitimate interests, including operating and securing our business, preventing fraud, providing customer support and improving the Services, where those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.

How We Disclose Personal Information

We may disclose personal information to third parties where reasonably necessary to operate our business, provide the Services, comply with legal obligations or otherwise for purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

This may include disclosure:

To Shopify and service providers that help us operate the Services, including payment processors, ecommerce and IT providers, analytics providers, customer support providers, printing and fulfilment providers, shipping carriers and cloud service providers.
To marketing and advertising partners where we use such services and where permitted by applicable law. Depending on your location, you may have rights to object to or opt out of certain targeted advertising or related data processing.
Where you direct, request or consent to the disclosure, including where disclosure is necessary to fulfil an order or provide a feature you have requested.
In connection with a business transaction, such as a reorganisation, sale, transfer or similar transaction involving all or part of our business.
Where necessary to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests from authorities, enforce our terms or policies, establish or defend legal claims, or protect our rights or the rights and safety of customers or others.

Relationship with Shopify

The Services are hosted by Shopify. Shopify collects and processes personal information about your access to and use of the Services in order to provide and improve the ecommerce services that support our store.

Information you submit through the Services may be transmitted to and processed by Shopify and other service providers, including providers located in countries other than the country where you reside.

We may also use Shopify features that use information obtained from interactions with our store, other Shopify merchants and Shopify's services to provide, protect, personalise or improve certain features. In circumstances where Shopify determines the purposes and means of such processing independently, Shopify is responsible for that processing and for responding to applicable requests concerning that processing.

To learn more about Shopify's privacy practices, please review the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy. Depending on where you live, you may also exercise certain rights relating to Shopify's processing through the Shopify Privacy Portal.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Services, remember preferences, understand how the Services are used, maintain security and, where permitted, support analytics, marketing and advertising.

Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies and similar technologies will only be used after you have provided the required consent. You may be able to manage your preferences through the cookie or privacy controls available on the Services.

Third-Party Websites and Links

The Services may contain links to websites or online services operated by third parties. If you follow a link to a third-party service, you should review that third party's privacy and security practices and terms.

We are not responsible for the privacy, security, accuracy or practices of third-party websites or services that we do not control. The inclusion of a third-party link does not necessarily imply that we endorse that third party or its content.

Children's Data

The Services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children in circumstances prohibited by applicable law. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us using the details below so that we can review the matter and take appropriate action.

Security of Your Information

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Please avoid sending sensitive or confidential information to us through unsecured communication channels unless it is necessary to resolve your request.

Retention of Personal Information

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Services, maintain appropriate business and transaction records, comply with legal, accounting and tax requirements, resolve disputes, prevent fraud and enforce our agreements.

The applicable retention period may therefore vary depending on the type of information, the nature of our relationship with you and our legal obligations.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights in relation to your personal information. These rights may be subject to conditions, limitations and exceptions under applicable law.

Right of access. You may have the right to request access to personal information that we hold about you.
Right to correction. You may have the right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information.

Right to restriction. You may have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.
Withdrawal of consent. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
Managing marketing preferences. You may unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time using the unsubscribe option included in those communications. Even if you opt out of promotional communications, we may continue sending non-promotional messages relating to orders, transactions, security or customer service.

Complaints

If you have a concern about how we process your personal information, please contact us using the details below so that we can review your concern.

Where applicable, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority responsible for your location.

If you are located in the European Economic Area, a list of supervisory authorities is available through the European Data Protection Board.

International Transfers

We and our service providers may transfer, store or process personal information outside the country in which you live.

Where personal information is transferred from the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom to a country that has not been recognised as providing an adequate level of data protection, we rely on appropriate safeguards where required by applicable law. These may include the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent transfer mechanisms recognised by the relevant authority.
