Relationship with Shopify

The Services are hosted by Shopify, who collects and processes personal information 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 shared with Shopify and third parties as necessary to provide and improve the Services for you, who may be located in countries other than where you live. In order to protect, grow, and improve our business, we also use certain enhanced Shopify features, which incorporate data and information from your interactions with our store, other merchants, and Shopify. In order to provide these enhanced features, Shopify may use personal information collected about your interactions with our store, other merchants, and Shopify. In these circumstances, Shopify is responsible for processing your personal information, including responding to your requests to exercise your rights related to their use of your personal information for these purposes.

Depending on where you live, you may be able to exercise certain rights related to your personal information described here via the Shopify privacy portal.

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 not affiliated 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 information found on these sites. Information you provide on public or semi-public venues, including information you share on third-party social networking platforms, may also be viewable by 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 disclosed on the Services.

Children's data

The Services are not intended for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information about children under the age of majority in your jurisdiction.

Security and retention of your information

Please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee "perfect security." In addition, any information you send to us may not be secure while in transit. We recommend that you do not use insecure channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us.
