Using Personal Information
We rely on your Personal Information to supply our services to you, which involves: displaying products for sale, securely processing payments, handling shipping and fulfillment for your order, and keeping you informed about new products, services, and exclusive offers.
Lawful basis
Pursuant to the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), if you reside in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), we process your personal information under the following lawful bases:
- Your consent;
- The performance of the contract between you and the Site;
- Compliance with our legal obligations;
- To protect your vital interests;
- To perform a task carried out in the public interest;
- For our legitimate interests, which do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.
Retention
When you place an order through the Site, we will keep your Personal Information in our records unless and until you request us to erase this data. For further details on your right of erasure, please review the ‘Your rights’ section below.
Automatic decision-making
If you reside in the EEA, you have the right to object to processing based solely on automated decision-making (which includes profiling), when that decision-making has a legal impact on you or significantly affects you otherwise. We do not engage in fully automated decision-making that has a legal or significant effect using customer data. Our processor Woocommerce uses limited automated decision-making to prevent fraud that does not have a legal or otherwise significant impact on you. Services that involve elements of automated decision-making include:
- Temporary blacklist of IP addresses tied to repeated failed transactions. This blacklist persists for a small number of hours.
- Temporary blacklist of credit cards tied to blacklisted IP addresses. This blacklist persists for a small number of days.
Selling Personal Information
We strictly do not sell your personal information.

The duration a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies stay active until you stop browsing, whereas persistent cookies remain until they expire or get deleted. A majority of the cookies we utilize are persistent and will expire anywhere between 30 minutes and two years from the time they are downloaded to your device. You can control and manage cookies in multiple ways. Please be aware that removing or blocking cookies can negatively affect your user experience, and certain parts of our website may no longer be entirely accessible. Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can configure your browser to decline them, typically through your browser’s “Tools” or “Preferences” menu. For additional guidance on how to adjust your browser settings or how to block, manage, or filter cookies, please consult your browser’s help file or visit platforms such as: www.allaboutcookies.org. Additionally, blocking cookies might not fully prevent how we share information with third parties, including our advertising partners. To exercise your rights or opt-out of specific uses of your data by these parties, please follow the steps outlined in the “Behavioural Advertising” section above.
