  • Order information: products purchased, order history, transaction details, delivery details, and customer support records.
  • Account information: login details, saved preferences, and account activity if you register on the site.
  • Technical information: IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and approximate usage data.
  • Cookies and similar tools: information used to keep the website functional, remember preferences, and understand basic site performance.

How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to operate our business and provide customer service. This may include:

  • Processing and fulfilling orders.

Payment Handling

Payments may be processed through third-party payment service providers. We may receive limited transaction details needed to confirm payment, handle orders, and maintain records. We do not claim to store full sensitive payment card information on our own systems where payment is handled externally, except as necessary for transaction confirmation and business recordkeeping.

Cookies and Basic Analytics

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to keep the site working properly, remember cart or session activity, understand user preferences, and measure basic traffic or performance. These tools help us improve the website and customer experience.

You may be able to control cookies through your browser settings, but disabling some cookies may affect site functionality.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information as part of ordinary store operations. We may share information only as reasonably necessary for business purposes, such as:

  • Payment providers to process transactions.
  • Courier and shipping partners to deliver your orders.
  • Technology and hosting providers to operate the website and store systems.
  • Analytics or support tools to understand performance and provide service.
  • Authorities or advisors where necessary to protect rights, investigate fraud, resolve disputes, or respond to lawful requests.

Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill orders, provide customer service, maintain business records, resolve disputes, enforce store policies, and meet operational or accounting needs. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and purpose for which it was collected.

Data Security

We take reasonable administrative and technical steps to help protect personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, loss, or disclosure. However, no method of online transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your circumstances and applicable business practices, you may request to review, update, or correct certain personal information we hold about you. You may also ask questions about how your information is used or request deletion of account-related data where appropriate and feasible for our operations.

To make a request, contact us at [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

Children’s Privacy

Our website is intended for general audiences and is not knowingly directed to young children for independent purchasing activity. If you believe information has been submitted to us in error, please contact us so we can review the matter.

Third-Party Services

Our website may rely on third-party services for payments, shipping, analytics, or hosting. Those providers may process information under their own policies and operational requirements. We encourage customers to use the website carefully and contact us with any questions about order-related data handling.

Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in store operations, technology, or customer service practices. The updated version will apply from the date it is posted on this page.
