Shopify may also process certain information for its own services. You can read the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy for further information.
8. Custom Orders and Measurements
Custom-order information may include body measurements, size preferences, design instructions, reference images, and other specifications.
We use this information to assess, manufacture, adjust, and support your requested product. Because these details may be personal, please submit only the information reasonably required for your order.
Custom-order details may be retained where reasonably necessary to complete the order, resolve issues, support a requested future reorder, or meet legal requirements.
9. Reviews and Public Content
Information included in a product reviewâsuch as your display name, rating, written comments, or uploaded photographsâmay become publicly visible on the Site.
Do not include contact details, order numbers, or other confidential information in a public review. We may moderate or remove content that violates our policies or applicable law.
10. Marketing Communications
If you subscribe to marketing, we may send product announcements, offers, and other promotional communications.
You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in an email or by contacting us. Service communications concerning orders, payments, security, or important policy changes are not promotional and may still be sent when necessary.
11. International Data Transfers
We serve customers internationally and use service providers that may process information outside the United Kingdom or your country of residence.
Where required, we rely on recognised legal safeguards, such as adequacy regulations, approved contractual protections, or other lawful transfer mechanisms.
12. Data Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy.
The retention period depends on the type of information, the nature of our relationship with you, legal and accounting obligations, fraud-prevention needs, dispute-resolution periods, and whether the information remains necessary for a custom order or customer request.
When information is no longer required, we may delete, anonymise, or securely isolate it, subject to technical and legal limitations.
13. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against loss, misuse, alteration, unauthorised access, or disclosure.
However, no online transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Customers are responsible for keeping account credentials confidential and should contact us if they suspect unauthorised account activity.
14. Automated Processing
We and our service providers may use automated tools to help identify potentially fraudulent transactions, protect the Site, measure marketing performance, or personalize content.
We do not intend to make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects on individuals unless permitted by law and accompanied by appropriate safeguards.

-
Request access to personal information held about you.

Where legally required, you may use our available privacy controls, send a recognised Global Privacy Control signal, or contact us to exercise an opt-out right.
We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising a privacy right. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request and may retain limited information needed to record and fulfil it.
