HOW WE DISCLOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION

In certain circumstances, we may disclose your personal information to third parties for legitimate reasons, in accordance with this Privacy Policy. These circumstances may include:

  • With Shopify, service providers and other third parties that provide services on our behalf, such as IT management, payment processing, data analytics, customer service, cloud storage, order processing and shipping.
  • With business and marketing partners to provide marketing services and advertisements. For example, we use Shopify to support personalized advertising through third-party services based on your online activity across different merchants and websites. Our business and marketing partners will use your information in accordance with their own privacy policies. Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask us not to share information about you for the purpose of showing you targeted advertising and marketing content based on your online activity across different merchants and websites.
  • When you instruct us, make a request or otherwise consent to the disclosure of certain information to third parties, for example to ship products to you or through your use of social media widgets or login integrations.
  • With our affiliates or more generally within our group of companies.
  • In connection with a business transaction such as a merger or bankruptcy, to comply with applicable legal obligations, to enforce applicable terms of service or policies, or to protect or defend the Services, our rights and the rights of our users or third parties.

RELATIONSHIP WITH SHOPIFY

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

Information you submit through the Services may be transmitted to and shared with Shopify, as well as with third parties that may be located in countries other than the country where you reside, in order to provide and improve the Services.

In addition, in order to protect, develop and improve our business, we use certain enhanced Shopify features that integrate data and information from your interactions with our store, other merchants and Shopify. To provide these enhanced features, Shopify may use personal information collected from your interactions with our store, other merchants and Shopify.

In these circumstances, Shopify is responsible for processing your personal information, including responding to requests to exercise your rights concerning the use of your personal information for these purposes.

For more information about how Shopify uses your personal information and the rights you may have, you can consult Shopify’s Consumer Privacy Policy. Depending on where you live, you may exercise certain rights through Shopify’s privacy portal.

THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES AND LINKS

The Services may provide links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow links to websites that are not affiliated with us or that we do not control, we recommend reviewing their privacy and security policies and their other terms and conditions.

We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy or security of these websites, including the accuracy, completeness or reliability of the information found on them.

Information you provide in public or semi-public spaces, including information you share on third-party social media platforms, may also be visible to other users of the Services and/or users of those third-party platforms, without restriction on how we or a third party may use it.

The inclusion of these links does not in itself imply any endorsement of the content of these platforms or their owners or operators, unless otherwise indicated on the Services.

CHILDREN’S DATA

The Services are not intended for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children who have not reached the age of majority in their jurisdiction.

If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with their personal information, you may 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” personal information relating to individuals under 16 years of age, as those terms are defined under applicable law.

SECURITY AND RETENTION OF YOUR INFORMATION

Please note that no security measure is perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee “perfect security.” In addition, information you send to us may not be secure during transmission. We recommend that you do not use unsecured channels to provide us with sensitive or confidential information.

The length of time we retain your personal information depends on various factors, such as whether we need the information to manage your account, provide the Services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes or enforce any other applicable contract or policy.

YOUR RIGHTS AND CHOICES

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights regarding your personal information. However, these rights are not absolute, may apply only in certain circumstances and, in some cases, we may refuse your request to the extent permitted by law.
