Third Party Services

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

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

For example, you may be located in Canada but your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States. Because of this, your personal information used to complete the transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

When you leave our online store or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

When you click on links on our store, they may direct you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. For clarification, we cannot erase any data that we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time and request that you review it frequently for changes and modifications. Changes and modifications will take immediate effect once published on this website.
