Use of Personal Data

We use your Personal Data to provide our services to you, which includes: offering products for sale, processing payments, shipping and fulfilling your order, and informing you about new products, services, and offers.


Legal Basis

In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), if you are a resident of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), we process your personal data on the following legal bases:

Your consent;

Performance of a contract between you and the Site;

Compliance with our legal obligations;

Protection of your vital interests;

Performance of a task carried out in the public interest;

Our legitimate interests, which do not infringe upon your fundamental rights and freedoms.


Storage

When you place an order through the Site, we will store your Personal Data in our records unless and until you ask us to delete it. For more information about the right to deletion, see the “Your Rights” section below.


Automated Decision-Making

If you are an EEA resident, you have the right to object to processing based solely on automated decision-making (including profiling) when such decision-making has legal or otherwise significantly affects you.

We engage in fully automated decision-making that has a legal or otherwise significant effect by using customer data.

Our processor, Shopify, uses limited automated decision-making to prevent fraud, which does not have a legal or otherwise significant effect on you.

Services that include elements of automated decision-making include:

Temporary blacklisting of IP addresses associated with repeated failed transactions. This blacklist lasts for a small number of hours.

Temporary blacklisting of credit cards associated with blacklisted IP addresses. This blacklist lasts for a small number of days.

The amount of time a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies last until you close your browser, while persistent cookies last until they expire or are deleted. Most cookies we use are persistent and expire between 30 minutes and two years from the date they are downloaded to your device.

You can control and manage cookies in various ways. Please note that deleting or blocking cookies may negatively affect your user experience, and some parts of our website may no longer be fully accessible.

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can choose whether to accept cookies using your browser settings, often found in the browser’s “Tools” or “Preferences” menu. More information about changing your browser settings or blocking, managing, or filtering cookies can be found in your browser’s help file or on sites such as: https://allaboutcookies.org.

Additionally, please note that blocking cookies may not completely prevent us from sharing information with third parties, such as our advertising partners. To exercise your rights or opt out of certain ways these parties use your information, follow the instructions in the “Behavioral Advertising” section above.


Do Not Track

Please note that because there is no consistent industry understanding of how to respond to “Do Not Track” signals, we do not change our practices for collecting and using data when we detect such a signal from your browser.


Changes

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


Complaints

As mentioned above, if you wish to file a complaint, contact us by email or post using the contact details provided in the “Contact” section above.

If you are not satisfied with our response to your complaint, you have the right to file a complaint with the appropriate data protection authority. You can contact your local data protection authority or our supervisory authority here:
