We use the Order Information that We collect generally to fulfill any orders placed through the Site (including processing your payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, We use this to communicate with you about your order and screen orders for potential risk or fraud.
We use the Device Information that We collect to help Us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize Our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how Our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of Our marketing and advertising campaigns).
We share your Personal Information with third parties such as Shopify to power Our online store (Please read more about how Shopify uses your Personal Information here: https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy).

As part of the user account functionality on Our services, you may have the ability to access and update many categories of Personal Information that you provide to Us by logging into your account and accessing your account settings. If you wish to amend or erase any other Personal Information that you have provided to Us, or that may have been collected from you by Us, please send us an email with your full name, the email which you are being solicited at, and (if applicable) the order number of the last order that you received. We acknowledge Our customer’s “Right to Erasure”. If you request that We delete information associated with your orders, We will do so within a reasonable period of time, but We may need to retain some of your Personal Information in order to satisfy Our legal obligations, or where We reasonably believe that We have a legitimate reason to do so.
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting or other legal requirements). No purpose in this policy will require Us keeping your personal information for longer than the period of time in which users have an account with Us. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, We will either delete or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then We will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
Upon your request to terminate your account, We will deactivate or delete your account and information from Our active databases. However, some information may be retained in Our files to prevent fraud, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce Our Terms of Use and/or comply with legal requirements.
Please note that We reserve the right to and may disclose personally identifiable information about you in response to requests from local, state or federal law enforcement officials; any judicial, administrative or similar proceeding or order, such as subpoena; if required by law; or to investigate suspected fraud, harassment, physical threats, or other violations of any law, rule or regulation, the Service rules or policies, or the rights of third parties or to investigate any suspected conduct which We deem improper. We would share your Personal Information to enforce Our Terms of Service, and to exercise or defend Our legal rights. We may disclose your information where We are legally required to do so in order to comply with applicable law, governmental requests, a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process, such as in response to a court order or a subpoena (including in response to public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements). We may disclose your information where We believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding potential violations of Our policies, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person and illegal activities, or as evidence in litigation in which We are involved.
Finally information about Our users, including Personal Information, may be disclosed as part of any merger, acquisition, debt financing, sale of company assets, or similar transaction, as well as in the event of insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership in which Personal Information could be transferred to third parties as one of Our business assets.
