Shopify
Shopify hosts and powers our store. In connection with providing its platform and related services to us, Shopify processes personal information in support of website hosting and store operation. Payment transactions are not processed by Shopify.
Since Shopify may process information about your interactions with Shopify powered stores, its own privacy practices also govern its handling of certain personal information.
More information is available in Shopify's Privacy Policy.
Secure Payment Processing
Payments made through Swing By Shop are handled entirely by secure third party payment processors. Security measures designed to protect payment information during transaction processing are used by these providers.
Complete credit or debit card details are generally not stored directly by Swing By Shop. The applicable payment processor handles payment information in accordance with its security practices, terms, and applicable legal obligations.
Third Party Websites and Services
Links to websites, platforms, or services operated by third parties may appear within our Services. When you follow a third party link, that third party's privacy and security practices will apply to your interactions with its services.
Before providing personal information to third party websites or services, we encourage you to review their privacy policies. The privacy practices, security, accuracy, or content of third party websites or services outside our control are not our responsibility.
Advertising and Analytics
We may use analytics services to understand how customers interact with our store and to improve the performance and shopping experience of our Services.
Customer personal information is not provided to third parties for their own marketing or advertising purposes without the customer's consent. Consent will be obtained where required by applicable law when advertising or marketing technologies are used.
Depending on the technologies used on our store and applicable law, certain analytics or advertising activities may involve the collection or disclosure of information through cookies or similar technologies. Customers will be provided with choices regarding these uses of their personal information where required.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to process and support your orders, provide the Services, maintain required business and transaction records, comply with legal and regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and enforce our agreements.
Retention periods for particular information may vary depending on the type of information, the reason it was collected, and applicable legal requirements.
Security
Reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures are used to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. Secure payment processing providers designed to protect transaction information handle payment transactions.
That said, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
When it is not necessary to do so, please avoid sending sensitive or confidential information through unsecured communication methods.
Children's Privacy
The Services are not intended for children, and personal information is not knowingly collected from children in violation of applicable law.
Parents or legal guardians who believe that a child has provided us with personal information inappropriately should contact us using the information provided below so that the request can be reviewed and appropriate action taken.
Your Privacy Rights
Subject to applicable law and depending on where you live, you may hold certain rights regarding your personal information. These may include the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information, as well as the right to receive a copy of certain information or to opt out of certain processing activities.
Eligible residents may also receive additional rights under certain U.S. state privacy laws concerning particular uses or disclosures of personal information, including rights relating to targeted advertising or the sale or sharing of personal information as those terms are defined under applicable law. [BUSINESS NAME] does not sell customer personal information.
You may exercise applicable privacy rights through privacy controls made available on our website, where available, or by contacting us using the information below.
Verification of your identity may be required before certain privacy requests are processed. An authorized agent may also be used to submit a request on your behalf where permitted by applicable law. Exercising an applicable privacy right will not result in unlawful discrimination against you.
Marketing Communications
Customer personal information is not shared with third parties for their own marketing purposes without the customer's consent.
Promotional emails you receive from us include an unsubscribe option you can use at any time. Opting out of promotional communications does not prevent us from sending non-promotional messages necessary to service your account, fulfill your orders, respond to your requests, or otherwise administer our relationship with you.
