Lawful Basis
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), if you are a resident of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), we process your personal information based on the following lawful bases:
- Your consent;
- Performance of a contract between you and the Website;
- Compliance with our legal obligations;
- Protection of your vital interests;
- Performance of a task 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 Website, we will retain your personal information for our records unless and until you ask us to delete this information. For more information on your right to deletion, please see the “Your Rights” section below.
AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING
If you are a resident of the EEA, you have the right to object to processing based solely on automated decisions (including profiling) when the decision has legal effects on you or significantly affects you.
We do not use customer data for fully automated decisions that have legal or other significant effects on you.
Our processor WordPress uses limited automated decision-making to prevent fraud that does not have legal or other significant effects on you.
Services that contain elements of automated decision-making include:
- Temporary deny list of IP addresses associated with repeated failed transactions. This deny list persists for a few hours.
- Temporary deny list for credit cards associated with deny-listed IP addresses. This deny list lasts for several days.

We use several different types of cookies, including functional, performance, advertising, social media, or content cookies. Cookies improve your browsing experience by allowing websites to remember your actions and preferences (such as logins and region selections). This means you don’t have to re-enter this information every time you return to the website or browse from one page to another. Cookies also provide information about how people use the website, such as whether they are first-time visitors or frequent visitors.
We use the following cookies to optimize your experience on our website and to provide our services.
COOKIES REQUIRED FOR THE STORE, REPORTING AND ANALYTICS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY
The length of time a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” cookie or a “session” cookie. Session cookies stay until you stop browsing, while persistent cookies stay until they expire or are deleted. Most cookies we use are persistent and will expire between 30 minutes and two years from the date they were downloaded.
You can control and manage cookies in a number of ways. Please keep in mind that deleting or blocking cookies may have a negative impact on your user experience and that some parts of our website may no longer be fully accessible.
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can choose whether to accept cookies through your browser controls, which are usually located in the “Tools” or “Preferences” menu on your browser. For more information on how to modify your browser settings or block, manage or filter cookies, please refer to your browser’s help files or through websites such as www.allaboutcookies.org.
In addition, please note that blocking cookies may not completely prevent information from being shared with third parties, such as our advertising partners. To exercise your rights or opt out of having certain of your information used by these parties, please follow the instructions in the “Behavioral Advertising” section above.
