Using Personal Information 

We use your Personal Information to provide our services to you, which  include: offering products for sale, processing payments, shipping and  fulfillment of your order, and keeping you up to date on new products,  services, and offers. 

Lawful basis 

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), if you are a  resident of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), we process your personal  information under the following lawful bases: 

  • Your consent; 
  • The performance of the contract between you and the Site; • Compliance with our legal obligations; 
  • To protect your vital interests; 
  • To perform a task carried out in the public interest;
  • For our legitimate interests, which do not override your fundamental  rights and freedoms. 

Retention 

When you place an order through the Site, we will retain your Personal  Information for our records unless and until you ask us to erase this  information. Please see the ‘Your rights’ section below for more information on your right of erasure. 

Automatic decision-making 

If you are a resident of the EEA, you have the right to object to processing  based solely on automated decision-making (which includes profiling), when  that decision-making has a legal effect on you or otherwise significantly  affects you. 

Using customer data, we engage in fully automated decision-making that has a legal or otherwise significant effect. 

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

Services that include elements of automated decision-making include: 

  • Temporary blacklist of IP addresses associated with repeated failed  transactions. This blacklist persists for a small number of hours. 
  • Temporary blacklist of credit cards associated with blacklisted IP  addresses. This blacklist persists for a small number of days. 

GDPR 

If you are a resident of the EEA, you have the right to access the Personal  Information we hold about you, to port it to a new service, and to ask that your  Personal Information be corrected, updated, or erased. If you would like to  exercise these rights, please contact us through the contact information  above. 

Your Personal Information will be initially processed in Ireland and then will be  transferred outside of Europe for storage and further processing, including to  Canada and the United States. For more information on how data transfers  comply with the GDPR, see Shopify’s GDPR Whitepaper: https:// help.shopify.com/en/manual/your-account/privacy/GDPR. 


CCPA 

If you are a resident of California, you have the right to access the Personal  Information we hold about you (also known as the ‘Right to Know’), to port it  to a new service, and to ask that your Personal Information be corrected,  updated, or erased. If you would like to exercise these rights, please contact  us through the contact information above. Please contact us at the address above if you would like to designate an authorized agent to submit these requests on your behalf.

The length of time that a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device  depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies  last until you stop browsing, and persistent cookies last until they expire or are  deleted.

Most of the cookies we use are persistent and will 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 keep in mind  that removing or blocking cookies can negatively impact your user experience  and parts of our website may no longer be fully accessible. 

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can choose whether or  not to accept cookies through your browser controls, often found in your  browser’s “Tools” or “Preferences” menu. For more information on how to  modify your browser settings or block, manage or filter cookies can be found in your browser’s help file or through such sites  

as: www.allaboutcookies.org. 

Additionally, please note that blocking cookies may not completely prevent  how we share information with third parties such as our advertising partners.  To exercise your rights or opt-out of certain uses of your information by these  parties, please follow the “Behavioural Advertising” instructions above. 

Do Not Track 

Please note that because there is no consistent industry understanding of  responding to “Do Not Track” signals, we do not alter our data collection  and usage practices 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 to our practices or for other operational, legal, or  regulatory reasons.

As noted above, if you would like to make a complaint, please contact us by  e-mail or mail using the details provided under “Contact” above.

If you are dissatisfied with our response to your complaint, you have the right  to lodge your complaint with the relevant data protection authority.
