Relationship with Shopify
The Services are supported by Shopify, which collects and processes personal information related to your access to and use of the Services to offer and improve the Services for you. In order to offer and improve the Services for you, the data you submit to the Services will be transmitted and shared with Shopify and third parties who may reside in countries other than your own. Furthermore, to help you protect, grow, and improve your business, we use certain advanced Shopify features that incorporate data and information received from you through your interactions with our store, as well as with other merchants and Shopify. To provide such advanced features, Shopify may use personal information collected from your interactions with our store, as well as with other merchants and Shopify itself. In such circumstances, Shopify is responsible for the processing of your personal information, including responding to your requests to exercise your rights regarding the use of your personal information for such purposes. For more information on how Shopify uses your personal information and the rights you may have, you can consult the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy.

Third-party websites and links
The Services may feature links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you click on links to sites not affiliated with or controlled by us, you may need to accept their privacy and security policies and other terms and conditions. We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy and security of such sites, nor for the accuracy, truthfulness, and reliability of the information contained therein. Information you provide in public or semi-public contexts, including that which you share on third-party social platforms, may also be viewed by other users of the Services and/or users of said third-party platforms, without restrictions on their use by us or third parties. The fact that we include such links does not imply any endorsement by us of the content of such platforms or their owners or operators, except as disclosed in the Services.
Data of minors

If you are a parent or guardian of a minor who has provided us with their personal information, you may contact us using the contact details provided below to request its deletion. As of the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we are not aware of the "sharing" or "selling" (depending on how those terms are defined in applicable laws) of personal information of individuals under the age of 16.
Data security and retention
Please note that no security measure is perfect or impenetrable and that we cannot guarantee "absolute security." Furthermore, data you send to us may not be secure during transit. We recommend that you use only secure channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us.
The retention period for personal information depends on several factors, such as whether we need such data to maintain your account, provide you with the Services, fulfill legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce other contracts and policies.
