Information Sharing & Disclosure


We do not sell, rent or lease your personal identifiable information to any third parties for commercial purposes. We may share your information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our e-commerce platform and providing our services, and these third parties are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and may only use your information to perform the services they are contracted for. These third parties include:

  • Payment processors: To process your payments securely (we do not store your full payment details on our servers).
  • Logistics and shipping partners: To fulfill and track your orders.
  • Customer service platforms: To assist with managing your inquiries and support requests.

We may disclose your personal information if required by law, such as in response to a court order, subpoena or other legal request, or to protect our rights, property and safety, as well as the rights and safety of our users and the public.

Data Protection & Security


We implement a range of technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These measures include:

  • Encryption of sensitive data (e.g., account passwords, payment information) using industry-standard encryption technology.
  • Secure servers and firewalls to protect our data storage systems.
  • Regular security audits and updates to our website and systems to address potential vulnerabilities.
  • Restricted access to personal information—only authorized team members have access to your data, and they are required to follow strict confidentiality policies.

While we take all reasonable steps to protect your information, no electronic storage or transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we commit to continuously improving our security measures to minimize any potential risks.
