Privacy Policy
Part 1 - How Do We Process Your Information?
When you purchase items from our store, as part of the sales process, we collect the personal information you provide, such as your name, address, and email address.
When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address to provide us with information that helps us understand your browser and operating system.
Email Marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products, and other updates.
Part 2 - Consent
How Do You Obtain My Consent?
When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for delivery, or return an item, you consent to our collection and use of that information solely for that specific purpose.
If we need your personal information for a secondary purpose (such as marketing), we will either ask for your explicit consent directly or provide you with the opportunity to opt out.
How can I withdraw my consent?
If you change your mind after opting in, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you or to continue collecting, using, or disclosing your information at any time.
Part 3 - Disclosure of Information
We may disclose your personal information if required by law or if you violate our Terms of Service.
Part 4 - Shopline
Our online store is hosted on the Shopline platform. They provide us with an online e-commerce platform that enables us to sell products and services to you.
Your data is stored through Shopline’s data storage systems, databases, and Shopline applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall.
Payment:
If you choose to complete your purchase through a direct payment gateway, Shopline will store your credit card information. This data is encrypted in accordance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only for as long as necessary to complete the transaction. Once the transaction is complete, your purchase transaction information will be deleted.
All direct payment gateways comply with the PCI-DSS standard administered by the PCI Security Standards Council, which was jointly established by brands such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure that our store and its service providers handle credit card information securely.
Part 5 - Third-Party Services
Generally, the third-party service providers we use will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary for them to provide services to us.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we must provide to them in connection with your purchase transactions.
For these service providers, we recommend that you review their privacy policies to understand how they will handle your personal information.
Please note in particular that certain service providers may be located in a jurisdiction different from yours or ours, or may have facilities located in a different jurisdiction. Therefore, if you choose to proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction where that service provider or its facilities are located.
For example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, the personal information you use to complete that transaction may be subject to disclosure under U.S. law (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.
Part 6 - Security
To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure that your personal information is not improperly lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed.
If you provide us with credit card information, that information will be encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology and stored using AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, we comply with all PCI-DSS requirements and implement other generally accepted industry standards.
Article 7 - Age of Consent
By using this website, you represent that you have reached the legal age of majority in your state or province, or that you have reached the legal age of majority in your state or province and have consented to our allowing any of your minor dependents to use this website.
Section 8 - Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time, so please review it periodically. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you on this page that the policy has been updated so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances (if any) we may use and/or disclose it.
If our store is acquired or merges with another company, your information may be transferred to the new owner so that we can continue to sell products to you.
