Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.

Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases, and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.

Payment:

If you complete your purchase through a direct payment gateway, then Shopify stores your credit card information. It is encrypted according to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as necessary to complete your transaction. Once completed, the information is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, a joint effort of companies like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.

PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we must provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend you read their privacy policies to understand how they will handle your personal information.

Remember that some providers may be located or have facilities in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. Therefore, if you elect to proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which the provider is located or has facilities.

For example, if you are located in Belgium and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in France, your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under French legislation.
