Privacy Policy

PRIVACY STATEMENT

SECTION 1 – WHAT DO WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION?

When you purchase something from our store, we collect personal information you provide such as your name, address, and email address.

When you browse our store, we automatically receive your computer’s IP address to help us understand your browser and operating system.

Email marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products, and other updates.

SECTION 2 – CONSENT

How do you get my consent?

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

If we request your information for a secondary reason (such as marketing), we will ask directly for your expressed consent or give you an opportunity to decline.

How do I withdraw my consent?

If you change your mind after opting in, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you or use your information. You can do this anytime by emailing hello@biggsandfeather.com or calling (410) 225-3345.

SECTION 3 – DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if required by law or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SECTION 4 – SHOPIFY

Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell products and services to you.

Your data is stored through Shopify’s databases and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.

Payment:

If you choose a direct payment gateway, Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). Transaction information is stored only as long as needed to complete your purchase and is then deleted.

All direct payment gateways follow PCI-DSS standards managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which includes Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.

SECTION 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

Third-party providers used by us will only collect and use your information as needed to perform the services they provide.

Certain third-party providers, such as payment processors, have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to read them to understand how they handle your information.

Some providers may be located in different jurisdictions than you or us. Your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction where the provider or its facilities are located.

Once you leave our store or are redirected to a third-party website or application, this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service no longer apply.

Important: Text messaging opt-in data and consent will not be shared with third parties.

SECTION 6 – SECURITY

We take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to protect your personal information from being lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed.

Credit card information is encrypted using SSL (secure socket layer technology) and stored with AES-256 encryption. While no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, we follow PCI-DSS requirements and widely accepted industry standards.
