Section 2 - Consent

Section 4 – Shopify
Our store is hosted by Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.
Your information is stored through Shopify's data stores, databases, and the general Shopify application. It is stored on a secure server behind a firewall.
Payment:
When you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Shopify stores your credit card information. It is encrypted by the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Information related to your purchase transaction is retained only for as long as it is necessary to complete your purchase transaction and is deleted after the transaction is complete.
All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS, which is managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, a joint project of brands such as 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 information, please see Shopify’s Terms of Service (https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms) or Privacy Policy.
Section 5 - Third Party Services
In general, the third-party service providers we use will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to enable them to perform the services they provide to us.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment processing service providers, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them in connection with transactions related to your purchases.
We encourage you to read the privacy policies of those providers so you understand how they
handle your personal information. In particular, please note that certain providers may be located in a different jurisdiction than you or us, or may have offices located in a different jurisdiction than us. Therefore, if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its offices are located.
For example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used to complete that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States law, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store's website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website's Terms of Service.
