Disclosure
We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so, or if you violate our Terms of Service.
Shopify
Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc. Shopify provides us with the e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.
Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases, and general Shopify application. Shopify stores your data on secure servers protected by security measures.
Payments
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, your payment information is handled securely through Shopify and/or our payment providers.
Payment information is encrypted according to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, also known as PCI-DSS. Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After the transaction is complete, your purchase information is handled according to applicable security and privacy standards.
All direct payment gateways follow PCI-DSS standards managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which includes brands such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.

Some third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and payment processors, have their own privacy policies. We recommend reading their privacy policies so you understand how your personal information is handled by them.
Certain providers may be located in a different country or jurisdiction than you or us. If you proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the location where that provider operates.
Once you leave our 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.
