8. Shopify

Our store is powered by Shopify.

Shopify processes personal information in connection with providing ecommerce technology and services to Vellarden.

Depending on the circumstances and Shopify service involved, Shopify may process personal information on our behalf or process certain information for purposes described in Shopify's own privacy notices.

For example, when customers interact with Shopify-powered stores or use Shopify consumer services such as Shop or Shop Pay, Shopify may receive information about customer accounts, devices, purchases, browsing activity, preferences, and transactions.

Customers may have separate privacy rights and choices concerning information processed directly by Shopify.

9. International Transfers

Vellarden is based in the United Kingdom, while Shopify and other service providers may operate or process information in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and other countries.

As a result, personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in a country different from the country in which you live.

Privacy and data-protection laws in those countries may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

Where applicable law requires safeguards for an international transfer of personal information, we use or rely on legally permitted transfer mechanisms, which may include:

  • Applicable adequacy regulations or decisions;

  • Contractual safeguards;

  • Approved data-transfer agreements or addenda; or

  • Other mechanisms permitted by applicable data-protection law.

Where United Kingdom data-protection law applies, restricted international transfers will be handled using an applicable lawful transfer mechanism.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and as required or permitted by applicable law.

Retention periods may depend on factors including:

  • The type of information;

  • The purpose for which it was collected;

  • Whether an account remains active;

  • The duration of our customer relationship;

  • Tax and accounting requirements;

  • Fraud-prevention requirements;

  • Legal or regulatory obligations;

  • Warranty or return periods;

  • Dispute resolution; and

  • The need to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

When personal information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, anonymize, aggregate, or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal obligations.

We use reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical safeguards designed to protect personal information against:

  • Unauthorized access;

  • Unauthorized disclosure;

  • Loss;

  • Misuse;

Email: lapeyrousebroberg222@hotmail.com

Please use “Privacy Request” in the subject line where possible.

Include sufficient information for us to understand and process your request.

Depending on the request and applicable law, we may need to verify your identity before fulfilling the request.

Where permitted by law, an authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf.

We may require reasonable evidence that the agent has authority to act for you and may also require identity verification.

If we deny a request in whole or in part, we will provide any explanation and appeal information required by applicable law.

We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right.

15. Marketing Communications
