Privacy Policy

SECTION 1 – WHAT DO WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION?

When you make a purchase from our store, we collect certain personal information that you provide to us, such as your name, address, and email address. This information is necessary for the buying and selling process.

During your visit to our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address. This information helps us gather data about your browser and operating system, which enables us to improve your browsing experience.

If you give us your consent, we may also send you emails about our store, new products, and other updates. You have the option to opt out of receiving such emails at any time

SECTION 2 – CONSENT

How do you get my consent?

When you provide us with personal information for the purpose of completing a transaction, verifying your credit card, placing an order, arranging delivery, or processing a return, you are giving your implied consent for us to collect and use that information solely for the specific reason it was provided.

If we require your personal information for a secondary reason, such as marketing purposes, we will either directly ask for your explicit consent or provide you with an opportunity to decline.

How do I withdraw my consent?

If you have previously opted in and later change your mind, you have the right to withdraw your consent for us to contact you or continue collecting, using, or disclosing your information. You can do so at any time by contacting us at [email protected].

SECTION 3 – DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SECTION 4 – PAYMENT

If you opt for a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, rest assured that your credit card information is encrypted according to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as necessary to process your transaction and is subsequently deleted.

Direct payment gateways employed by our store comply with the standards established by PCI-DSS, which is managed by the PCI Security Standards Council—a collaborative effort of major credit card brands such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.

These PCI-DSS requirements ensure the secure handling of your credit card information by our store and its service providers.

Your data is stored on a secure server protected by a firewall.

SECTION 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers we utilize will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies governing the information we must provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. We recommend that you review their privacy policies to understand how these providers handle your personal information.

It’s important to note that some providers may be located in or have facilities located in a different jurisdiction than you or us. 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 service provider or its facilities are located.

For example, if you are in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway in the United States, the personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Once you navigate away from our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by our Privacy Policy or website’s Terms of Service

SECTION 6 – SECURITY

To ensure the security of your personal information, we employ reasonable precautions and adhere to industry best practices to prevent its loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

When you provide us with your credit card information, it is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with AES-256 encryption. While no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, we comply with all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards to safeguard your information.
