Terms of use

SECTION 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 provide — such as your name, address, and email address.

When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address to help us learn about your browser and operating system.

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

SECTION 2 – CONSENT

How do you get my consent?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit 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 purpose only.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason (such as marketing), we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent or provide you with an opportunity to opt out.

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, or for the continued collection, use, or disclosure of your information at any time, by contacting us at: aikathelabel2024@gmail.com

SECTION 3 – DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if required by law or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SECTION 4 – SHOPIFY

Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides us with the e-commerce platform that enables us to sell our products and services to you.

Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases, and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server protected by a firewall.

If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Shopify stores your credit card data. This data is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as necessary to complete the purchase; after that, it is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to PCI-DSS standards, managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. These standards help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

SECTION 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers we use will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform their services.

However, certain third-party service providers (like payment gateways, shipping partners, or analytics tools) have their own privacy policies regarding the information we must share with them for transaction-related services.

We recommend reading their policies to understand how your data will be handled.
For example, if your transaction is processed by a provider located outside India, your data may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction.

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

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

SECTION 6 – SECURITY

We take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure your personal information is not lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed.

If you provide us with your credit card information, it is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and stored with AES-256 encryption.

While no method of data transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we comply with all PCI-DSS requirements and apply additional, generally accepted industry standards for data protection.

SECTION 7 – COOKIES

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some website features may not function properly without them.

SECTION 8 – AGE OF CONSENT

By using this site, you confirm that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, or that you are the age of majority and have given us consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use this site.

SECTION 9 – CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy at any time. Changes and clarifications take effect immediately upon posting on the website.

If we make significant changes, we will notify you here so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we may disclose it.

If our store is acquired or merged with another company, your information may be transferred to the new owners to ensure uninterrupted service.
