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 Services. Information you submit through the Services will be transmitted to and shared with Shopify and with third parties that may be located in countries other than the one where you live, in order to provide and improve the Services.
In addition, to protect, grow, and improve our business, we use certain enhanced Shopify features that incorporate 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 your requests to exercise your rights relating to Shopify’s use of your personal information for these purposes.
To learn more about how Shopify uses your personal information and the rights you may have, please review the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy. Depending on where you live, you may also be able to exercise certain rights through the Shopify 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 sites not affiliated with or controlled by us, we encourage you to review their privacy and security policies and other terms. We are not responsible for the privacy or security of those sites, including the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information found on them.
Information you provide in public or semi-public areas, including information shared on third-party social media platforms, may be visible to other users of the Services and/or those third-party platforms without limitation on its use by us or by a third party. Our inclusion of such links does not, by itself, imply any endorsement of the content, owners, or operators of those platforms, unless stated otherwise 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 your jurisdiction. If you are a parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with personal information, you may contact us using the details below to request deletion.
As of the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we do not have actual knowledge that we “share” or “sell” (as those terms are defined under applicable law) personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.
Security and retention of your information
No security measure is perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee “perfect security.” In addition, information you send to us may not be secure while in transit. We recommend that you do not use unsecured channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information.
How long we retain your personal information depends on various 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.

Except for GPC, we do not recognize other “Do Not Track” signals that may be sent from your browser or device.

Managing communication preferences. We may send you promotional emails. You can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe option included in our emails. Even if you opt out, we may still send non-promotional messages, such as those about your account or orders.

-
Right to object and restrict processing. You may have the right to ask us to stop or restrict processing of your personal information for certain purposes.

You can exercise these rights through the mechanisms provided within the Services or by contacting us using the details below. To learn more about Shopify’s use of personal information and rights you may have (including rights relating to data processed by Shopify), please visit Shopify’s privacy site.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request, as permitted or required by applicable law. Where permitted, you may designate an authorized agent to exercise rights on your behalf. Before accepting such a request, we may require proof of authorization and may ask you to verify your identity directly with us. We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law.
