Sources of Personal Information

We may collect personal information:

  • Automatically through your use of our website and Services.
  • From Shopify and service providers that help us process orders, payments, shipping, analytics, fraud prevention, and customer communications.
  • From marketing, advertising, or analytics partners, where used and where permitted by law.

How We Use Personal Information

We may use personal information to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve our Services.
  • Process orders, payments, shipping, returns, exchanges, and customer support.

  • Personalize site content, advertising, or shopping features where applicable.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and Shopify may use cookies, pixels, tags, scripts, and similar technologies to support site functionality, analytics, fraud prevention, and advertising or retargeting activities. Depending on where you live and the settings we use on our store, certain non-essential data collection or tracking may occur only after consent.

Where available, you can manage your privacy and cookie preferences through the tools provided on our site. Where legally required and where our platform or settings support it, we may also honor browser-based privacy preference signals in connection with data sale, sharing, or targeted advertising choices.

How We Share Personal Information

We may disclose personal information:

  • To Shopify and service providers who support payment processing, website hosting, analytics, fraud prevention, fulfillment, shipping, communications, and related services.
  • To marketing, advertising, and analytics partners, where used and where permitted by law.
  • When you direct us to do so or consent to it.
  • In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, bankruptcy, or sale of assets.
  • To comply with law, legal process, or governmental requests.
  • To protect our rights, our customers, or others.

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money in the ordinary sense of that phrase. Depending on where you live, however, some data-sharing for advertising or analytics purposes may be treated as a "sale" or "sharing" under applicable privacy law.

Relationship with Shopify

Our store is powered by Shopify. Shopify may collect and process personal information about your interaction with our store in order to provide and improve the services that support our storefront, checkout, and related functions.

Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide Services, complete transactions, maintain business and legal records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and comply with legal obligations.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information. No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information; to opt out of certain targeted advertising, profiling, or data sharing; to withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing; and to appeal a denial of a privacy request where applicable.

Where available, you can exercise certain privacy choices using the tools provided on our site, including any cookie-preference controls or data-sharing opt-out page we make available. We may need to verify your identity before responding to a request, and we may decline a request where permitted by law.

You may opt out of promotional emails by using the unsubscribe link in the message or by contacting us. Even if you opt out of marketing communications, we may still send transactional or service-related communications.

Children's Privacy

Our Services are not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children in a manner prohibited by law. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information improperly, contact us and we will review the request.

International Transfers

If you access our Services from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States or other countries where we or our service providers operate.
