Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 12th of December 2023

1. What do we do with your information?

When you purchase something from our store, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, address and email address.

When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.

Email marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products and other updates.

 

2. Consent

How do you get my consent?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

How do I withdraw my consent?

If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at anytime, by contacting us at elenglowshop@gmail.com

 

3. Disclosure

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

Payment:

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

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands 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.

4. Third party services

In the general context, the external providers we engage will only access, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary for the services they render to us.

Nevertheless, specific third-party service providers, like payment gateways and transaction processors, maintain their own privacy policies concerning the information we must share with them for your purchase-related transactions.

We strongly advise reviewing their privacy policies to comprehend how these providers will handle your personal information. It's crucial to note that certain providers may be situated in jurisdictions different from yours or ours. Therefore, opting for a transaction involving a third-party service provider means your information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) where the provider or its facilities are located.

For instance, if you are in Canada and your transaction is processed by a U.S.-based payment gateway, your personal information used in that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, such as the Patriot Act.

Once you navigate away from our store's website or are directed to a third-party website or application, you are no longer bound by our Privacy Policy or website Terms of Service.
