5. Shopify and Payment Processing

Our store is powered by Shopify. Shopify may process personal information to provide website, checkout, payment, and store-operation services. Information submitted through our website may be processed by Shopify and other service providers located in countries other than your own.

Payment transactions are processed by third-party payment providers. Their use of information is governed by their own privacy policies and applicable terms.

We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels, tags, analytics tools, and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, maintain security, understand website performance, and, where permitted, provide relevant advertising.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect certain website functions, including cart functionality, checkout, account access, saved preferences, and security features.

7. Marketing Communications

You may opt out of marketing emails at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in the email.

Even if you opt out of marketing communications, we may still send non-promotional messages relating to orders, shipping, payments, product safety, returns, account security, policy updates, or customer-support matters.

8. Data Retention and Security

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and maintain business records.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Our website is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of majority in their jurisdiction without appropriate authorization.

If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us at zircorncirkne@gmail.com so that we can review and address the request.
