ARTICLE 4 - SHOPIFY
Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell you our services and products.
Your data is stored in Shopify's data storage system and databases, and in the general Shopify application. Your data is kept on a secure server protected by a firewall.
Payment:
If you make your purchase through a direct payment gateway, in that case Shopify will store your credit card information. This information is encrypted in accordance with the data security standard established by the payment card industry (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction information is retained for as long as necessary to complete your order. Once your order is finalized, your purchase transaction information is deleted.
Please note that the information is not retained for any length of time.
All direct payment gateways comply with the PCI-DSS standard, managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is the result of a joint effort by companies such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.
The PCI-DSS requirements ensure the secure processing of credit card data by our store and its service providers.

ARTICLE 5 - SERVICES PROVIDED BY THIRD PARTIES
In general, the third party vendors we use will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to be able to perform the services they provide to us.
However, some third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase transactions.
With respect to these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies carefully so that you can understand how they will handle your personal information.
Keep in mind that some providers may be located or have facilities located in a different jurisdiction than you or us. So if you decide to proceed with a transaction that requires the services of a third party provider, then your information may be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which that provider is located or the jurisdiction in which its facilities are located.
As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed through a payment gateway located in the United States, your information that was used to complete the transaction could be disclosed under United States law, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store site or are redirected to a third party's website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website's Terms and Conditions of Sale and Use.
