SHOPIFY
Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.
Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.
PAYMENT
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card IndustryData Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.
All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.
For more insight, you may also want to read Shopify’s Terms of Service (https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms) or Privacy Statement (https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy).
BUSINESS SALES OR TRANSFERS
In the event that our company or our Site is sold or transferred, or in the event that substantially all of our assets are sold or transferred to a third party, any personally identifiable information collected by us, will be among the transferred assets. By using the Site, you hereby agree to such transfer or assignment of this information.
LINKS
When you click on links on our store, they may direct you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.
DATA SECURITY
We use commercially reasonable security measures to safeguard your personally identifiable information in our possession against loss, theft and unauthorized use, disclosure or modification.
To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed.
If you provide us with your credit card information, the information is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with a AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.
IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO PROVIDE PERSONAL INFORMATION
We do not require registration or submission of personally identifiable information to obtain basic access to the Site; however, you may not be able to access all areas and functions of the Site or purchase products or participate in activities.
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
The Site complies with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). For more information about COPPA and children’s privacy, please visit http://www.ftc.gov/privacy/privacyinitiatives/childrens.html. When we use the term “parent” below, we mean to include legal guardians.
CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 13
If you are under the age of 13, please be sure to read this Privacy Policy with your parent and ask questions about things you do not understand. Some areas of the Site may have special rules for children under the age of 13. When you are in those areas, you must follow those rules.
If a child under age 13 wants to use the Site for services or activities requiring registration, the only information we would collect from such child during our registration process is the child’s first name, parent’s e-mail address, child’s birth date, screen name, and password. We collect birth dates to validate the ages of our Site visitors and customers, including children. We do not collect any other personally identifiable information from children during our registration process. We may collect a child’s e-mail address from a parent for the purpose of sending the child e-mail related to the Site or services or activities. For example, we would send a Site newsletter to a child directly at the request of the child’s parent.
We send parents an e-mail requesting affirmative consent to the child’s participation when their child registers on the Site, registers for services and activities or enters a sweepstakes or contest. Before allowing a child under age 13 to participate in any such activity, we send an e-mail to the child’s parent requesting the parent’s affirmative consent to the child’s participation. If the parent gives such consent, we then follow that communication with an e-mail confirmation to the parent and allow the child to participate in the activity. If the parent refuses to allow the child’s participation, or if we do not hear back from the parent within 72 hours, the child’s personally identifiable information will be flagged for deletion from our database. Once a parent affirmatively permits a child to participate, the child will be able to participate in such services or activities without any further notification to the parent. If a child wins a sweepstakes or contest, we notify the parent at the parent’s e-mail address provided to us during the registration process, and the parent will have to mail or fax us a signed note at the address or fax number listed in the rules for the specific contest that says it was permissible for the child to enter, and tells us they will accept the prize for the child. We may publish a winner’s first name, first initial of last name, city, and state of residence on our Site.
CHILDREN BETWEEN THE AGES OF 13 AND 18
If you are between the ages of 13 and 18, please be sure to read this Privacy Policy with your parent and get his or her permission before you give us any of your personally identifiable information, before you participate in any activity or contest or before you buy anything from the Site. Do not post your real name on a web site or forum, and never tell anyone online anything private about yourself or your family, including your phone number and address. Use screen names at all times. If you win a sweepstakes that has a prize, your parent will have to mail or fax us a signed note at the address or fax number listed in the rules for the specific contest that says it was permissible for you to enter, and tells us they will accept the prize for you. Some areas of the Site may have special additional rules for children under the age of 18. When you are in those areas, you must follow those rules.
INFORMATION FOR PARENTS
Parents should regularly oversee their children’s use of e-mail and website participation. Control tools are available from online services and software manufacturers that can help provide a safe online environment for kids.
We do not require a child to disclose more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in an activity or service as a condition of participation. Parents may request a review and/or removal of their child’s information at any time by sending an e-mail to moc.snoitavonniainrofilac@ycavirp, which must include the same screen name, password, and e-mail address that their child submitted. To protect the child’s privacy and security, we will take commercially reasonable steps to verify the parent’s identity before granting him or her access to the child’s information.

By using the Site, you signify your assent to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, you are not authorized to use the Site. We reserve the right to make changes in this Privacy Policy, provided that we give notice to you of any such changes via e-mail and/or by posting the amended Privacy Policy on the Site.
