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 e-commerce platform allowing us to sell our products and services to you.
Your data is stored securely on Shopify’s servers, protected by a firewall.
Payment:
If you use a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Shopify stores your credit card data, which is encrypted according to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your transaction data is stored only as long as needed to complete your purchase, after which it is deleted.
All direct payment gateways comply with PCI-DSS, ensuring secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.
For more details, you can review Shopify’s Terms of Service or Privacy Policy.
SECTION 5 - THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
Third-party providers we use will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary for them to perform their services.
However, specific providers, such as payment gateways, have their own privacy policies regarding the information required for your transactions. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies to understand how your personal information will be handled.
Some third-party providers may operate in different jurisdictions, meaning your information could be subject to the laws of those jurisdictions.
For example, if you’re in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway in the U.S., your personal information may be subject to U.S. legislation, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party site or application, this Privacy Policy and our website’s Terms of Service no longer apply.
