Privacy Statement

- 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 to us, including but not limited to your name, address, and email address. This information is essential for processing your order and ensuring proper delivery. When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer's internet protocol (IP) address, which provides us with valuable information that helps us learn about your browser type and operating system. This technical data allows us to optimize your browsing experience and improve our website's functionality.

Email marketing (if applicable): With your explicit permission, we may send you emails about our store, new product launches, special promotions, seasonal collections, and other relevant updates. You can opt out of these communications at any time through the unsubscribe link provided in every email.

- 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 process a return, we imply that you consent to our collecting and using this information specifically for that particular purpose. We take this implied consent seriously and ensure that your information is used solely for the purpose you intended. This includes processing your payment, fulfilling your order, and communicating with you about your purchase.

 If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, such as marketing purposes or newsletter subscriptions, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent or provide you with a clear opportunity to decline. We respect your right to privacy and ensure transparency in how we collect and use your information.

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, for the continued collection, use, or disclosure of your information, at any time. This can be done easily by contacting us at sales@mymoroccantile.com or mailing us at: my-moroccan-artisan

- DISCLOSURE

 We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service. This includes compliance with legal obligations, law enforcement requests, and court orders. We will only share the minimum necessary information required by law.

- THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

 In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the essential services they provide to us. These services may include payment processing, shipping, and website analytics. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

 For these providers, we strongly recommend that you carefully read their privacy policies to understand how your personal information will be handled by these providers. This is particularly important because these policies may differ from ours. In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

 As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act. This means your data may be subject to different privacy protections than those in your home country.

 Once you leave our store's website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website's Terms of Service. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any external websites you visit through links on our site, as they may have different privacy practices and policies in place.

Links

 When you click on links on our store, they may direct you away from our site. We want to inform you that once you navigate away from our website through these external links, you'll be subject to different privacy practices and policies. While we carefully select the external links we provide, we are not responsible for the privacy practices, data collection methods, or content of other sites. We strongly encourage you to read their respective privacy statements and terms of service before providing any personal information or engaging with their services. This helps ensure you understand how your data will be handled on these third-party platforms.

- SECURITY

 To protect your personal information, we implement comprehensive security measures and follow industry best practices to ensure your data remains safe and confidential. Our security protocols are regularly updated to address emerging threats and vulnerabilities. We employ multiple layers of protection, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular security audits to make sure your information is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed. Our team continuously monitors our systems for potential security breaches and maintains strict access controls to your data.

 If you provide us with your credit card information during checkout, we ensure maximum security through industry-standard encryption methods. Specifically, the information is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with AES-256 encryption, which represents one of the strongest encryption standards available. Our payment processing systems are regularly tested for security compliance and vulnerabilities. Although we implement these advanced security measures, it's important to note that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We continuously work to enhance our security measures to provide the highest possible level of protection for your data.
