We are committed to protecting your information.

SECTION 1 - WHY DO WE NEED YOUR INFORMATION?

When you choose to purchase from our online store, we need to collect specific personal information to complete the transaction. This list contains information about your name, address, telephone number, and email address. Rest assured, this information is vital for processing your order efficiently and ensuring its timely delivery.

Additionally, we may offer you the option to subscribe to our email and SMS marketing communications. Please let us know if you would like us to send you updates about our store, new products, or other relevant information if you have given us your explicit permission. These communications can be opted-in or opted-out at any time.

SECTION 3 - DISCLOSURE

In the unlikely event that you violate our Terms of Service or if we are compelled by law to disclose your personal information, we will do so.

SECTION 4 - SHOPIFY

The Shopify Inc. platform powers our online shop, enabling us to provide seamless shopping experiences to our customers. Shopify stores your data securely, including your payment information, through their data storage, databases, and general applications, all protected by robust security measures.

We take security very seriously when it comes to your payment information. If you use a direct payment gateway, Shopify follows the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). This data is retained only as long as necessary to complete your transaction, and your entire credit card information is never visible to Lost Mary Direct unless specifically requested by you.

The direct payment gateways used by our store and its service providers are PCI-DSS compliant, ensuring that the information about your credit card is handled securely.

The Terms of Service and Privacy Statement of Shopify provide additional insights into security.

SECTION 5 - THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

Third-party service providers may enhance our shopping experience. Your information is collected, used, and disclosed by these third parties only to the extent necessary to perform their services on our behalf. Please be aware, however, that there may be privacy policies specific to the third-party service providers you use, such as payment gateways.

Make sure you read the privacy policies of these providers so that you can understand how your data will be handled. The laws of these countries may differ from yours and ours, so it is essential to keep that in mind.

A U.S.-based payment gateway may process your transaction in compliance with U.S. legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Leaving our website or being redirected to a third-party site will change our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. These external websites have privacy statements that you can review.

SECTION 6 - SECURITY

Protecting your personal information is our priority. You can be assured that your data will never be inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed due to our data security procedures.

Secure socket layer technology (SSL) encrypts credit card information if provided. The transactions are encrypted using AES-256 encryption. Despite the insecurity of internet transmissions, we follow PCI-DSS requirements to ensure the security of your information during secure transmission.
