with your information?

something from our store, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect

When you browse our store,
we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in

If we ask for your

you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to
say no.

Section 4 - Shopify
Our store is hosted on
Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us
to sell our products and services to you.
Your data is stored
through Shopify’s data storage, databases and the general Shopify application.
They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.
Payment
If you choose a direct
payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify stores your credit card
data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard
(PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is
necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your
purchase transaction information is deleted.
All direct payment
gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security
Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard,
American Express and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help
ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its
service providers.

Section 5 - Third-party
services
In general, the
third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your
information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they
provide to us.
However, certain
third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment
transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the
information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related
transactions.
For these providers, we
recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner
in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.
In particular, remember
that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a
different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a
transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then
your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which
that service provider or its facilities are located.
As an example, if you are
located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway
located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing
that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation,
including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store’s
website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no
longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.
