The Services are hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes personal data about your access to and use of the Services in order to provide and improve the Services for you. Information you submit to the Services will be transmitted to and shared with Shopify, as well as third parties that may be located in countries other than the one in which you reside, in order to provide and improve the Services for you.

To provide these enhanced features, Shopify may make use of personal data collected about your interactions with our store, along with other merchants and with Shopify. In these circumstances, Shopify is responsible for the processing of your personal data, including for responding to your requests to exercise your rights over the use of your personal data for these purposes.

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 that are not affiliated with 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 the information found on these sites. Information you provide in public or semi-public places, 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 stated in the Services.

Children’s data

The Services are not intended to be used by children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal data 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 data, 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 have no actual knowledge that we ‘share’ or ‘sell’ (as those terms are defined in applicable law) personal data of individuals under 16 years of age.
