6. Shopify and Third-Party Services
Our online store is hosted on Shopify. Shopify may process personal information to provide the storefront, checkout, security, fraud-prevention and other commerce services. Shopify and other service providers may process information in India or in other countries where they or their service providers operate.
Where information is transferred outside India, we take reasonable steps to ensure that the transfer is necessary and subject to safeguards required under applicable law.
Third-party websites, applications, payment services or social-media platforms may have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies, as we are not responsible for their independent privacy practices.

You can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe option in a communication, changing available account preferences or contacting us. You may still receive essential messages relating to orders, payments, delivery, security or customer support.

We and our service providers use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no online transmission or storage system is completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and should contact us promptly if you suspect unauthorised use of your account.
