Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By accessing or using our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

- Personal identifiers such as name, email address, shipping address, billing address, and phone number
- Payment information (processed securely through Stripe)
- Order history and product preferences
- Device and usage information when you interact with our website

Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal data based on the following legal grounds:

- To comply with our legal obligations
- For our legitimate business interests
- With your consent, where applicable
Payment Processing
We use Stripe for payment processing. When you make a purchase, your payment information is processed directly by Stripe. We do not store your full credit card details on our servers.
The payment information you provide is encrypted and transmitted directly to Stripe. This process is protected by encryption technology that prevents your information from being read by unauthorized parties.
Stripe's use of your personal information is governed by their Privacy Policy. We recommend you review their policy at https://stripe.com/privacy.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Order information is typically kept for 7 years to comply with tax and accounting regulations.
When we no longer need to process your personal data, we will delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
Data Security
We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information. These measures include encryption, access controls, and secure networks.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please contact us immediately.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:
- Access and receive a copy of your personal data
- Rectify inaccurate personal data
- Request deletion of your personal data
- Object to or restrict processing of your personal data
