The Services are hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes personal information about your access to and use of the Services in order to provide and improve the Services.

Shopify may process personal information in accordance with its own privacy policies and applicable data protection obligations.
To learn more about how Shopify processes personal information and the rights available to you, please review the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy.
Depending on where you live, you may also exercise certain rights in relation to information processed by Shopify through the Shopify Privacy Portal.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our website, remember preferences, understand how visitors use our Services and, where permitted, support marketing and advertising activities.
Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent before placing or accessing non-essential cookies or similar technologies on your device.
You may manage your cookie preferences through our cookie consent tools or through your browser settings.
Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality or availability of some parts of the Services.
Third-Party Websites and Links
The Services may contain links to websites or online platforms operated by third parties.
If you follow a link to a website that is not affiliated with or controlled by us, you should review that website's privacy policy, cookie policy and terms and conditions.
We are not responsible for the privacy, security or content practices of third-party websites or platforms.
Information that you share on public or semi-public platforms, including social networking platforms, may be visible to other users and may be used by those platforms in accordance with their own privacy policies.
Children's Data
The Services are not intended for children who are below the applicable age of consent in their jurisdiction.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children where prohibited by applicable law.
If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us using the contact details below so that we can review the situation and, where appropriate, delete the information.
Security and Retention of Your Information
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no security measure is completely secure or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
The length of time we retain information depends on factors including:
-
whether we need the information to provide our Services;
-
whether we need to maintain your account;
-
whether we are required to retain the information for legal or regulatory purposes;
-
whether the information is necessary to resolve disputes; and
-
whether we need the information to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
Your Rights Under the GDPR
If you are located in the EU or EEA, you have certain rights regarding your personal information under the GDPR. These rights may be subject to specific conditions and exceptions under applicable law.
You may have the right to:
-
Right to be informed – to receive clear information about how and why your personal information is processed.
-
Right of access – to request access to the personal information we hold about you.
-
Right to rectification – to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information.
-
Right to erasure – to request deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances.
-
Right to restriction of processing – to request that we restrict the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.
-
Right to data portability – to receive certain personal information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and, where technically feasible, request that it be transmitted to another controller.
-
Right to object – to object to certain processing activities, including processing based on legitimate interests and direct marketing.
-
Right to withdraw consent – where we rely on your consent as the legal basis for processing, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
-
Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling – in certain circumstances, you may have rights concerning decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
You may exercise these rights by contacting us using the contact details provided below.
We may need to verify your identity before processing your request, as permitted or required by applicable law.
We will respond to valid requests without undue delay and, in principle, within one month of receiving the request. Where permitted by law, this period may be extended where a request is particularly complex or where you have made multiple requests. If an extension is required, we will inform you of the reason for the delay.
You will generally not be charged for exercising your data protection rights. However, applicable law may allow us to charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act on a request that is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
International Transfers
Your personal information may be transferred to, stored or processed in countries outside the EU or EEA.
Where we transfer personal information outside the EU or EEA, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that your personal information continues to receive an adequate level of protection as required by applicable data protection law.
Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:
-
an adequacy decision adopted by the European Commission;
-
the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses;
-
other legally recognised transfer mechanisms; or
-
applicable derogations permitted under the GDPR.
Where appropriate, you may request further information about the safeguards we use for international transfers.
