Our 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 on our behalf. Information you submit to the Services will be transmitted to and shared with Shopify, as well as third parties that may be located in other countries than the one you reside in, in order to provide and improve our and Shopify's services. Further, to help support, protect, and improve the Services, and where required, in accordance with applicable law, we and Shopify use certain Shopify enhanced features that integrate data and information across Shopify and other Shopify merchants. To provide these enhanced features, Shopify may use personal information collected from your interactions with our store, other merchants, and Shopify. In these circumstances, Shopify acts as a controller of your personal information, including with respect to your requests to exercise your rights in relation to this personal information. To learn more about Shopify's use of personal information, and your rights in relation to this processing, please review Shopify's Consumer Privacy Policy. Depending on where you live, you may be able to exercise certain rights related to your personal information via Shopify's Privacy Portal.
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 visible to 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 personal information about children under the applicable 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 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 under 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.
How long we retain your personal information depends on different factors, such as whether we need the information to maintain your account, to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce other applicable contracts and policies.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. We may need to verify your identity before we can process your requests, as permitted or required under applicable law. Pursuant to applicable law, you may designate an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf to exercise your rights. Before an agent can make a request on your behalf, we ask that the agent provide proof you have authorized them to act on your behalf, and we may need you to verify your identity directly with us. We will respond to your request in a timely manner as required under applicable law.

If we transfer your personal information outside of the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, we will rely on recognized transfer mechanisms like the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, or an equivalent contract issued by the appropriate UK authority, unless the data transfer is to a country that has otherwise been determined to provide an adequate level of protection.
