Third-Party Websites and Links

We are not responsible for third-party sites you visit via links on the Services. Review their privacy and security policies.

Children’s Data

The Services are not intended for children. We do not knowingly “sell” or “share” personal information of individuals under 16.

Security & Retention

No security is perfect, and data in transit may not be fully secure. Retention depends on account needs, provision of Services, legal obligations, dispute resolution, and enforcement of policies.

Your Rights and Choices

  • Access/Know, Delete, Correct, Portability (subject to law and exceptions).
  • Opt-out of sale/sharing or targeted advertising where applicable. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we will treat it as an opt-out where required.

If you reside in the UK/EEA you may also object to or restrict processing and withdraw consent where relied upon. Requests may require identity verification or an authorized agent authorization. Learn more about Shopify’s processing at privacy.shopify.com.

International Transfers

When transferring personal information outside your country, we rely on appropriate safeguards (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent) unless the destination offers an adequate level of protection.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. We will post the revised version here and update the “Last updated” date above.
