Legal Bases for Processing

Where the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), UK GDPR or similar legislation applies, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases.

Performance of a Contract

We process information to accept and fulfill orders, process payments, arrange delivery, provide customer support and manage returns or refunds.

Consent

We may rely on your consent for optional cookies, marketing communications and other processing activities where consent is required. You may withdraw your consent at any time.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.

Legitimate Interests

We may process information where necessary for our legitimate interests, including:

• Operating and improving the store

• Understanding store performance

• Preventing fraud

• Protecting our systems and business

• Responding to customer questions

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small files placed on your browser or device when you visit a website. Our store and its service providers may use cookies, pixels, tags and similar technologies to operate the store, remember preferences, understand store usage and support permitted marketing activities.

The store may use the following categories of cookies:

Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for essential functions such as:

• Page navigation

• Shopping cart operation

• Secure checkout

• Fraud prevention

• Security

• Remembering privacy preferences

Because these cookies are necessary for the store to function, they generally cannot be disabled through the store’s privacy settings.

Functional Cookies

These cookies help remember choices such as language, region and other store preferences.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the store, which pages they visit and where technical or navigation improvements may be needed.

Advertising Cookies

Where enabled and permitted, these cookies may help measure advertising performance and provide advertisements that may be more relevant to visitors.

Depending on your location, we may ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies. You can accept, reject or manage available cookie categories through the store’s cookie or privacy settings.

You can also manage cookies through your browser. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect certain functions, saved preferences, the shopping cart or checkout.

Session cookies generally expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or are deleted. The exact cookies used may change when Shopify, installed applications or store features are updated.

For general information about managing cookies, visit All About Cookies.

Analytics and Advertising

We may use analytics technologies to understand store performance and how visitors interact with our pages.

Where advertising technologies are enabled, they may also be used to measure campaign performance or provide more relevant advertising. Depending on your location, these technologies may be used only after you provide consent.

You can manage optional cookies through the privacy or cookie settings available on the store.

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money. However, certain uses of advertising technologies may be treated as “sharing,” “targeted advertising” or a “sale” under some privacy laws. Where those laws apply, you may use the available store privacy settings or contact us to exercise your rights.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Retention periods may depend on:

• Order fulfillment requirements

• Tax, customs and accounting obligations

• Return, replacement and customer support needs

• Fraud prevention and security requirements

• Applicable limitation periods

• The need to establish, exercise or defend legal claims

When information is no longer required, we may delete or anonymize it unless continued retention is required or permitted by law.

If you request deletion, we may retain information that is necessary to comply with legal obligations, maintain transaction records, prevent fraud, resolve disputes or enforce agreements.

International Data Transfers

We operate from Ukraine and use Shopify and other service providers that may process information outside your country of residence.

When required by law, international transfers are supported by appropriate legal safeguards. Privacy and data protection laws in another country may differ from those in your country of residence.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect personal information.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If you believe that your personal information or an account connected with our store has been compromised, please contact us.

Fraud Prevention

Shopify, payment providers and fraud prevention services may use automated systems to identify potentially fraudulent or unauthorized transactions.

These systems may temporarily restrict a transaction or payment method when suspicious activity is detected. We do not independently use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects for customers.

Children’s Privacy

Our store is intended for a general audience and is not specifically directed to children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law. If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so that we can review and, where required, delete it.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Request access to personal information we hold about you

• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information

• Request deletion of personal information

• Request a portable copy of certain information

• Restrict or object to certain processing

Third-Party Websites

Our store may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.

We are not responsible for the privacy, security or content of third-party websites. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies before providing personal information.
