Legal Basis for Processing (for users in Canada and other applicable jurisdictions)

We process your personal information based on the following legal grounds: your consent (which you can withdraw at any time), necessity for the performance of a contract (e.g., to process a purchase), compliance with a legal obligation, or our legitimate interests (e.g., improving our services) provided that your rights do not override those interests. For users in Quebec and other Canadian provinces with specific privacy laws, we adhere to the principles of consent, purpose limitation, and data minimization.

Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share your information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the Site, processing payments, delivering orders, sending emails, analyzing data, or providing customer support. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify. We may also disclose your information if required by law, such as in response to a court order, subpoena, or other legal process, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or the rights of others.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing activities. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences, understand how you use the Site, and improve your experience. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Site. We also use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, which may set their own cookies. For more information on how Google Analytics collects and processes data, please visit Google's privacy policy.

Third-Party Links

The Site may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. For example, we may retain your transaction records for tax or accounting purposes. When we no longer need your information, we will securely delete or anonymize it.

Data Security

We implement reasonable technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include encryption, secure servers, and access controls. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
