Relationship with Shopify

The Services are hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes personal information about your access to and use of the Services in order to provide and improve the Services for you.

Cookies, Pixels, and Tracking Technologies

What we use. The Services use cookies, web beacons, pixels, tags, software development kits, session identifiers, local storage, and similar technologies (collectively, "Tracking Technologies") that collect information about your device, your browser, your IP address, and your interactions with the Services. Some Tracking Technologies are strictly necessary to operate the Services — for example, to maintain your session, remember the contents of your cart, and secure the checkout process. Others support analytics, personalization, and advertising.

Who receives this information. We use Tracking Technologies provided by third parties, which may include Shopify, Meta Platforms, Inc. (including the Meta Pixel and Conversions API), Google LLC (including Google Analytics and Google Ads), Klaviyo, and other analytics and advertising providers. Some of these providers act as our service providers or processors and use the information only to perform services for us. Others act as independent controllers or third parties and may use the information for their own purposes, including to build profiles, measure advertising performance across websites, and serve advertising to you on other services. Their handling of your information is governed by their own privacy policies.

Information may be transmitted directly to third parties. You acknowledge and understand that when you interact with the Services, Tracking Technologies may transmit information — including your IP address, device and browser characteristics, pages viewed, items viewed or purchased, and actions taken on the Services — directly to these third parties at the time of your interaction, and that this transmission occurs contemporaneously with your use of the Services.

Consent. By accessing or using the Services, and where applicable by accepting the cookie or consent notice presented to you, you expressly consent to the use of these Tracking Technologies, to the collection and recording of your interactions with the Services, and to the transmission of that information to and its use by the third parties described above. You further consent to our service providers and partners acting as parties to and participants in your communications with us for the purpose of providing, securing, analyzing, and improving the Services. This consent is given knowingly and voluntarily, and applies at the time you access the Services and each time thereafter.

Withdrawing consent. You may withdraw or modify your consent at any time by adjusting your preferences through the cookie or consent notice on our website, by using our opt-out mechanism described below, by adjusting your browser settings to refuse or delete cookies, or by enabling a Global Privacy Control or similar opt-out preference signal. Disabling strictly necessary Tracking Technologies may prevent parts of the Services from functioning.

Opting out of targeted advertising. You may opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for targeted advertising through the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link on our website. Additional industry opt-out tools are available through the Digital Advertising Alliance at optout.aboutads.info and the Network Advertising Initiative at optout.networkadvertising.org.

No recording of communications content. We do not record telephone calls, and we do not use session replay or similar technologies that capture keystrokes or the content of information you enter but do not submit to us, except to the extent necessary to secure the checkout process and prevent fraud.

Third Party Websites and Links

The Services may provide links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow links to sites not affiliated or controlled by us, you should review their privacy and security policies and other terms and conditions. We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy or security of such sites, including the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information found on these sites. Information you provide on public or semi-public venues, including information you share on third-party social networking platforms may also be viewable by other users of the Services and/or users of those third-party platforms without limitation as to its use by us or by a third party. Our inclusion of such links does not, by itself, imply any endorsement of the content on such platforms or of their owners or operators, except as disclosed on the Services.

Children's Data

The Services are not intended to be used by children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information about children under the age of majority in your jurisdiction. If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with their personal information, you may contact us using the contact details set out below to request that it be deleted.As of the Effective Date of this Privacy Policy, we do not have actual knowledge that we "share" or "sell" (as those terms are defined in applicable law) personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.

Security and Retention of Your Information

Please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee "perfect security." In addition, any information you send to us may not be secure while in transit. We recommend that you do not use unsecure channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us.

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. In determining retention periods, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information; the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure; the purposes for which we process it; whether those purposes can be achieved by other means; and applicable legal, tax, accounting, and reporting requirements. Generally: transaction and order records are retained for seven (7) years to meet tax and accounting obligations; account information is retained while your account remains active and for two (2) years thereafter; marketing contact information is retained until you unsubscribe and for a reasonable period thereafter to honor your opt-out; and website usage and analytics data is generally retained for twenty-six (26) months. We may retain information longer where required by law or where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
