Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy and understand how your information is collected, used and disclosed as described below.

Personal Information We Collect or Process

When we use the term “personal information”, we mean information that identifies you or another person, or that can reasonably be linked to you or another person.

Personal information does not include information that has been collected anonymously or de-identified so that it cannot reasonably be used to identify or be linked to you.

  • Automatically through the Services, including from your device when you use our products or Services or visit our website, and through cookies and similar technologies.

How We Use Your Personal Information

Depending on how you interact with us and which Services you use, we may use your personal information for the following purposes:

Providing, Personalising and Improving the Services

We use your personal information to provide the Services to you and perform our agreement with you. This may include processing payments, fulfilling orders, remembering your preferences and products you are interested in, sending account-related notifications, processing purchases, returns, exchanges or other transactions, creating and managing your account, arranging shipping and facilitating returns and exchanges.

We may also use your personal information to personalise and improve your shopping experience, including recommending products that may be relevant to you.

Marketing and Advertising

We may use your personal information for marketing and promotional purposes, such as sending marketing or promotional communications where permitted by applicable law.

We may also use information about your activity on the Services to show you relevant advertisements on our Services or other websites, subject to your applicable privacy rights and choices.

Security and Fraud Prevention

We use your personal information to verify accounts, provide a secure payment and shopping experience, and detect, investigate or take action regarding potentially fraudulent, illegal, unsafe or malicious activity.

If you create an account, you are responsible for keeping your login details secure. We recommend that you do not share your password or other account access information with anyone.

Communicating With You

We use your personal information to provide customer support, respond to your enquiries, provide effective Services and maintain our relationship with you.

Legal Reasons

We may use your personal information to comply with applicable laws and legal obligations, respond to valid legal requests, investigate or participate in legal proceedings, enforce our terms and policies, and protect our Services, rights and the rights of our users or others.

How We Disclose Personal Information

In certain circumstances, we may disclose your personal information to third parties for legitimate purposes and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

This may include:

  • Shopify and other service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as IT services, payment processing, data analytics, customer support, cloud storage, production, fulfilment and shipping.
  • Business and marketing partners that help us provide marketing services and advertising, where permitted by applicable law.
  • Third parties when you direct us, request us or otherwise consent to us sharing certain information, such as when necessary to deliver your order or when you use third-party integrations.
  • Our affiliates or other companies within our corporate group, where applicable.
  • Third parties in connection with a business transaction, such as a merger, acquisition or insolvency, or where necessary to comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms or policies, or protect our Services and rights.

Our Relationship With Shopify

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

Information you submit through the Services may be transmitted to and shared with Shopify and third parties that may be located in countries other than the country in which you live.

We may also use certain enhanced Shopify features that use information obtained from your interactions with our store, other merchants and Shopify to help protect, grow and improve our business.

In certain circumstances, Shopify is responsible for processing your personal information for its own purposes, including responding to requests concerning your privacy rights in relation to such processing.

For more information about how Shopify processes personal information and the privacy rights available to you, please refer to Shopify's customer privacy information.

Third-Party Websites and Links

The Services may contain links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties.

If you follow links to websites that are not affiliated with or controlled by us, you should review their privacy policies, security practices and terms and conditions.

We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of third-party websites or platforms, including the accuracy, completeness or reliability of information available through them.

Information that you provide in public or semi-public areas, including information shared on third-party social media platforms, may also be visible to other users and may be used by those third parties in accordance with their own policies.

The inclusion of a third-party link does not in itself imply that we endorse the content, owners or operators of that platform.

Children's Data

The Services are not intended for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children below the age at which they can legally consent to the processing of their personal information in their jurisdiction.

If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with personal information, you may contact us using the details below to request that the information be deleted.

As of the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we are not aware that we “sell” or “share” personal information relating to individuals under the age of 16, as those terms may be defined under applicable law.

Security and Retention of Your Information

Please be aware that no security measure is perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Information transmitted to us may not always be secure while in transit. We recommend that you do not use unsecured channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us.

How long we retain your personal information depends on several factors, including whether we need the information to maintain your account, provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes or enforce applicable agreements and policies.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights regarding your personal information. These rights are not absolute and may only apply in certain circumstances.

Right of Access

You may have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you.

Right to Deletion

You may have the right to request that we delete personal information we hold about you.

Right to Correction

You may have the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information we hold about you.

Right to Data Portability

In certain circumstances and subject to applicable exceptions, you may have the right to receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you and request that it be transferred to a third party.

Managing Communication Preferences

We may send you promotional emails where permitted by applicable law. You can unsubscribe from these communications at any time by using the unsubscribe option included in our emails.

If you unsubscribe from marketing communications, we may still send you non-promotional communications, such as messages relating to your account or orders.

Additional Rights for EEA and UK Residents

If you live in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the United Kingdom, you may also have the following rights, subject to applicable legal exceptions and limitations:

  • Objection to processing and restriction of processing: You may have the right to ask us to stop or restrict the processing of your personal information for certain purposes.
  • Withdrawal of consent: Where we rely on your consent to process personal information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before your consent was withdrawn.

You may exercise your rights through the options provided through the Services or by contacting us using the contact details below.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights. We may need to verify your identity before processing a request, as permitted or required by applicable law.

Where permitted by applicable law, you may appoint an authorised representative to submit a request on your behalf. We may require proof that the representative has been authorised to act for you and may ask you to verify your identity directly with us.

We will respond to valid requests within the time periods required by applicable law.

Complaints

If you have a complaint about how we process your personal information, please contact us using the details below.

Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

International Transfers

Please note that we may transfer, store and process your personal information outside the country in which you live.

Where personal information is transferred outside the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we rely on recognised transfer mechanisms where required, such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent mechanisms issued by the relevant UK authorities, unless the information is transferred to a country recognised as providing an adequate level of data protection.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, including to reflect changes to our practices or for operational, legal or regulatory reasons.
