How do you obtain my consent?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange a delivery or return a purchase, we assume that you consent to our collecting your information and using it for that specific purpose only.

If we ask you to provide personal information for another reason, such as marketing, we will either ask you directly for your express consent or give you the opportunity to decline.

ARTICLE 3: DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our General Terms and Conditions of Sale and Use.


ARTICLE 4: SHOPIFY

Our store is hosted by Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our services and products to you.

Your data is stored in Shopify's data storage system and databases, and in the general Shopify application. Your data is kept on a secure server protected by a firewall.


Payment:

If you make your purchase through a direct payment gateway, Shopify will store your credit card information. This information is encrypted in accordance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Information relating to your purchase transaction is retained for as long as necessary to complete your order. Once your order is complete, the information relating to the purchase transaction is deleted.

All direct payment gateways comply with PCI-DSS, managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is the result of a joint effort by companies such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.

The PCI-DSS requirements help ensure that credit card data is handled securely by our store and its service providers.

ARTICLE 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 perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies concerning the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies carefully so that you can understand how they will handle your personal information.

Please remember that certain providers may be located, or have facilities located, in a jurisdiction different from yours or ours. Therefore, if you decide to proceed with a transaction that requires the services of a third-party provider, your information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction in which that provider is located or in which its facilities are located.

Once you leave the Gifties-fr.com website or are redirected to a third party's website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or by our website's General Terms and Conditions of Sale and Use.
