Where consent is required by applicable law for cookies or similar technologies, we will ask for consent before using them for those purposes.

We may process your personal information where necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes or lawful requests from public authorities.


How We Share Your Personal Information

We may disclose personal information to third parties where necessary to operate our business and provide our Services.

These may include:

  • Shopify, which provides the ecommerce platform used to operate our store.
  • Payment service providers, which securely process payments and related transaction information.
  • Shipping and fulfilment providers, where necessary to deliver your orders and process returns.

Shopify

Our store is hosted on Shopify, which provides the ecommerce infrastructure used to operate our Services.

Shopify may collect and process information about your access to and use of our store in order to provide and improve its services. Information submitted through our store may also be processed in countries outside the country where you live.

Shopify may process certain information independently for its own purposes in accordance with its privacy practices.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our website, remember preferences, understand website usage and, where applicable, support analytics and advertising.

Some cookies are necessary for the website and checkout to function correctly. Other cookies may be used for analytics, advertising or other purposes.

Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies or similar technologies. You can manage your cookie preferences through the options provided on our website and through your browser settings.

Third-party services used on our website may also place cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own privacy policies.


Third-Party Websites and Links

Our Services may contain links to websites, platforms or services operated by third parties.

We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of third-party websites. If you follow a link away from our Services, we recommend reviewing the relevant third party’s privacy policy and terms.


Children's Data

Our Services are not intended for children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children where prohibited by applicable law. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at info@ciesempre.com so that we can review the information and take appropriate action.


Security and Retention

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure.

However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to provide our Services, fulfil orders, comply with legal and accounting obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements and policies.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it is held.

  • Deletion: You may have the right to ask us to delete your personal information in certain circumstances.

  • Objection or Restriction: You may have the right to object to or ask us to restrict certain types of processing.
