Relationship with Shopify

 The Services are hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes personal information regarding your access to and use of the Services to provide and enhance the Services for you.
Any information you submit to the Services will be transmitted to and shared with Shopify, as well as with third parties that may be located in countries other than your country of residence, in order to provide and improve the Services for you.

 Furthermore, to help protect, expand, and improve our business, we utilize certain advanced Shopify features that incorporate data and information obtained from your interactions with our store, with other merchants, and with Shopify itself.
 To provide these enhanced features, Shopify may use personal information collected about your interactions with our store, with other merchants, and with Shopify.
 In such cases, Shopify acts as the data controller for the processing of this personal information, including for responding to your requests regarding the exercise of your rights concerning the use of your information for these purposes.

Third-Party Websites and Links

 The Services may contain links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you access these links to websites that are neither affiliated with nor controlled by us, we recommend that you review the privacy and security policies, as well as the terms and conditions, of those third parties.
 We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of such websites, including the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of the information they make available.
 Information you share in public or semi-public environments, such as third-party social media networks, may also be viewable by other users of the Services and/or those platforms, without any limitation on its use by us or by third parties.
 The inclusion of these links within the Services does not, in itself, represent any endorsement of the content on those platforms or of their owners and operators, unless expressly indicated within the Services.

Children’s Information

 The Services are not intended for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information from minors, as defined by the applicable legislation in your jurisdiction.
 If you are a parent or legal guardian of a child who has shared personal information with us, you may contact us through the channels indicated below to request the deletion of such data. As of the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we have no actual knowledge that we "share" or "sell" (as those terms are defined under applicable law) the personal information of individuals under the age of 16.

Security and Retention of Your Information

 Although we implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information, no system is completely infallible. Therefore, we cannot guarantee "absolute security."
 Furthermore, data transmitted to us may not be secure during transit. For this reason, we recommend that you avoid sending sensitive or confidential information through insecure means.
 The period for which we retain your personal information may vary based on several factors, including the need to keep your account active, provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce applicable contracts and policies.
