You may control cookies through:

  • Our cookie-consent banner
  • Your browser settings
  • Applicable privacy preference tools

Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

Unsubscribing from promotional emails does not prevent us from sending necessary transactional communications, such as order confirmations, delivery information, or responses to customer-support requests.

8. TARGETED ADVERTISING

Where permitted, we may work with advertising and analytics providers to:

  • Understand how visitors use the website
  • Measure advertising performance
  • Show advertisements that may be relevant to visitors

  • Attribute purchases or website visits to campaigns

These providers may collect information through cookies, pixels, device identifiers, or similar technologies.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to opt out of certain uses of personal information for targeted advertising, selling, or sharing.

California privacy law may grant covered consumers rights involving access, deletion, correction, and opting out of the sale or sharing of personal information, although whether these obligations apply depends on the business and legal thresholds involved.

9. SALE OR SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Choose only one version below and delete the other.

Version A — when you do not use data for targeted advertising

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money.

We do not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as defined by applicable law.

Version B — when Shopify or advertising pixels are used for targeted advertising

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money.

However, certain uses of advertising cookies, pixels, Shopify features, or advertising partners may be considered “selling,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising under some privacy laws.

Where required, eligible visitors may opt out through our:

  • Cookie banner
  • Privacy settings
  • “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” page
  • Global Privacy Control signal, where supported and legally required

Do not use Version A without first checking whether you have enabled Meta Pixel, Google Ads, TikTok Pixel, Shopify Audiences, Shopify Network Intelligence, or another advertising integration.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:

  • Fulfill the purposes described in this policy

  • Meet legal, tax, and accounting obligations
  • Resolve disputes
  • Prevent fraud
  • Enforce agreements

Retention periods may vary depending on:

  • The type of information
  • The nature of the customer relationship
  • Legal requirements
  • Whether an unresolved complaint or dispute exists

When information is no longer required, we may delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it, subject to technical and legal limitations.

11. DATA SECURITY

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information.

However, no website, transmission method, storage system, or electronic transaction can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Customers should:

  • Protect account credentials
  • Use a strong and unique password
  • Avoid sharing account access
  • Contact us if unauthorized account activity is suspected

12. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

We and our service providers may process personal information in countries other than the country where you live.

These countries may have privacy laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction.

Where required, we take appropriate steps to support lawful international transfers, which may include:

  • Contractual safeguards
  • Adequacy decisions
  • Approved data-transfer mechanisms
  • Other legally recognized protections

Because Shopify and other service providers may operate internationally, customer information may be processed across multiple jurisdictions.
