4. Cookies, Pixels, Analytics, and Interest-Based Advertising
Our Services may use cookies, pixels, tags, web beacons, local storage, and similar technologies for essential, functional, analytics, personalization, advertising, and social media purposes. These technologies may collect information about your device, browser, interactions, pages viewed, products viewed, cart activity, checkout activity, purchases, search terms, referring pages, and ad interactions.
We may use analytics and advertising services to help us understand how users interact with the Services, measure marketing campaigns, show ads, limit ad frequency, personalize ads, and understand whether ads led to website visits or purchases. These services may associate your activity on our Services with activity on other websites, apps, or platforms.
You can control cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through our cookie banner, privacy preference center, or “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” / “Your Privacy Choices” link. Some features of the Services may not function properly if cookies are disabled.
Some browsers or extensions allow you to send opt-out preference signals, including Global Privacy Control (“GPC”). Where required by applicable law, we will treat recognized opt-out preference signals as a request to opt out of sale, sharing, or targeted advertising for the browser or device sending the signal.
5. “Sale,” “Sharing,” and Targeted Advertising
We do not sell personal information for money. However, certain state privacy laws define “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising” broadly. Our use of advertising cookies, pixels, analytics tools, social media integrations, and marketing technologies may be considered a sale, sharing, targeted advertising, or cross-context behavioral advertising under some state laws.
You may opt out of these activities by using our “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” / “Your Privacy Choices” link where available, adjusting cookie preferences, enabling a recognized browser-based opt-out preference signal such as GPC, or contacting us using the information below.
We do not knowingly sell or share personal information of consumers under 16 years of age.

8. California Privacy Notice
This section applies to California residents and supplements the rest of this Privacy Policy. The California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”), requires specific disclosures about personal information we collect, use, disclose, sell, or share.
Categories of personal information collected. In the preceding 12 months, we may have collected the following categories of personal information: identifiers; customer records information; commercial information; internet or other electronic network activity information; geolocation information; audio, electronic, visual, or similar information when you contact us or interact with certain features; inferences; and sensitive personal information where necessary for permitted purposes.
Sources of personal information. We collect personal information from you, your device or browser, Shopify and ecommerce services, payment processors, shipping and returns providers, marketing and advertising partners, analytics providers, social media platforms, service providers, affiliates, business partners, and publicly available sources.
Business and commercial purposes. We use personal information for the purposes described in Section 2 of this Privacy Policy.
Disclosures for business purposes. In the preceding 12 months, we may have disclosed each category of personal information listed above to service providers, processors, contractors, affiliates, payment processors, shipping providers, returns providers, analytics providers, marketing providers, advertising partners, professional advisors, legal and compliance recipients, and business transfer recipients.
Sale or sharing.

We do not knowingly sell or share personal information of consumers under 16.

These rights may include access, correction, deletion, portability, opt out of sale, opt out of targeted advertising, opt out of certain profiling, and appeal.
We will process state privacy requests in accordance with applicable law. If a state law does not apply to us or to a particular request, we may still respond voluntarily or provide reasonable assistance, but doing so does not waive any legal position.
10. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Services, maintain customer accounts, process transactions, provide customer support, comply with legal, tax, accounting, and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud, maintain security, and support legitimate business operations.
Retention periods vary depending on the type of information, the purpose of collection, legal requirements, and business needs. When personal information is no longer reasonably necessary, we will delete, deidentify, aggregate, or otherwise handle it in accordance with applicable law.
11. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission, storage, or processing is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for using secure devices and networks.
12. Children’s Privacy
Our Services are intended for a general audience and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

You may opt out of participating in such programs as described in the applicable program terms.
17. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last Updated” date above shows when this Privacy Policy was last revised. Changes are effective when posted unless otherwise stated.
