By providing us with your personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery, or process a return, you imply your consent for us to collect and use that information solely for the specified purpose.

SECTION 3 - DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if required by law or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SECTION 4 - SHOPIFY

Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides the online e-commerce platform enabling us to sell our products and services to you. Your data is stored through Shopify's data storage, databases, and general Shopify application. They maintain your data on a secure server protected by a firewall. All direct payment gateways adhere to PCI-DSS standards set by the PCI Security Standards Council, a collaborative effort among major brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. These requirements ensure secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers. For more information, you can read Shopify's Terms of Service and Privacy Statement.

Payment: If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Shopify securely stores your credit card data. It is encrypted in accordance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is retained only as long as necessary to complete the transaction, after which it is deleted.

SECTION 5 - THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, third-party providers we utilize will collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to perform the services they provide. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information required for your purchase-related transactions. We recommend reading their privacy policies to understand how they handle your personal information.

Keep in mind that certain providers may be located in or have facilities located in a jurisdiction different from yours or ours. If you proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that provider or its facilities are located.

For example, if you reside in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway based in the United States, your personal information used in that transaction may

 be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Links: Once you leave our store's website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, this Privacy Policy and our website's Terms of Service no longer apply. Clicking on links on our store may lead you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other websites and recommend reviewing their privacy statements.

SECTION 6 - SECURITY

We take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to protect your personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. If you provide us with your credit card information, it is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is entirely secure, we adhere to all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional accepted industry standards.
