PRIVACY POLICY

ARTICLE 1 – PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you purchase something from our store, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us, such as your name, address, and email address.

When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.

Email Marketing: During your visit, we may offer you the option to enter your email address to receive updates about our store, new products, and other news. We will only send emails if you explicitly agree while shopping in our store or in any other justified context.

To improve our service, we use tools like Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel. These help us understand visitor behavior and provide key insights so we can offer you the best possible experience. We also use cookies to analyze traffic and customize our content and advertising based on your interests. Information from your visit may be shared with our partners in social media, advertising, and analytics.

Google Analytics
This tool helps us analyze customer navigation on our website. It collects data via cookies such as:

  • Traffic volume on our site (number of visitors, pages viewed, etc.)
  • Statistics related to visited sections and navigation paths

These cookies help us continuously improve our products, ads, and website. They also allow us to present personalized offers based on your interests.

Both third-party vendors and we use first-party cookies (like Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (like Google advertising cookies). You can disable Google Analytics advertising features via your ad settings, mobile app ad settings, or other available tools.

If you don’t want Google Analytics to collect your data, you can add a browser extension here. Please note that certain site features may no longer function properly if you disable this. Also, content, offers, or ads may not fully match your interests.

More information is available in Google’s Privacy Policy regarding Google Analytics data collection and processing.

Facebook Pixel
This tool helps us analyze customer navigation and better target our audience.

We inform you that third parties, including Facebook, may use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from our website and elsewhere on the internet. This information may be used for measurement services and targeted advertising.

If you don’t want your information used for advertising, you can disable this directly in your Facebook settings. Additionally, www.aboutads.info/choices and www.youronlinechoices.eu provide more information and tools to limit this usage.

For more details, see Facebook’s Cookie Policy and Data Use Policy regarding Facebook Pixel.

ARTICLE 2 – 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 return a purchase, we assume you consent to our collecting and using it for that purpose only.

If we ask for your personal information for another reason, like marketing, we will ask you directly for your explicit consent or provide you with the option to decline.

How can I withdraw my consent?
If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, or for the continued collection, use, or disclosure of your information, by contacting us at team.pixelworld@gmail.com.

ARTICLE 3 – DISCLOSURE
We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

ARTICLE 4 – SHOPIFY & IONOS
Our website Pixel World is hosted by Ionos. This hosting ensures our site functions properly and allows our customers to benefit from optimal protection, including SSL (https://) security.

To provide you with our products and services, our store uses the Shopify e-commerce platform, powered by Shopify Inc.

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 us.

However, some 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 for your purchase-related transactions.

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

Keep in mind that certain providers may be located or have facilities in a different jurisdiction than you or us. So if you proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) where that provider or its facilities are located.

For example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway in the United States, your personal information used to complete the transaction may be subject to disclosure under U.S. laws, including the Patriot Act.

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 Terms of Service.

Links
When you click on links in our store, they may direct you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy policies.

ARTICLE 6 – SECURITY

To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure it is not lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed inappropriately. Please note that internet transmission can have security flaws, and we cannot guarantee 100% protection against unauthorized access. We recommend using a secure connection and active firewall when shopping on our site.

If you provide us with your credit card information, it is encrypted using SSL technology and stored with AES-256 encryption. While no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional industry-recognized safeguards.

COOKIES
Here is a list of cookies we use so you can decide whether to opt-out or not:

  • _session_id, unique session identifier, allows Shopify to store session information (referrer, landing page, etc.)
  • _shopify_visit, no data held, persists for 30 minutes from the last visit
  • _shopify_uniq, no data held, expires at midnight (visitor’s local time) the next day
  • cart, unique identifier, persists for 2 weeks, stores information about your cart contents
  • _secure_session_id, unique session identifier
  • storefront_digest, unique identifier, used to determine if the current visitor has access when the store is password-protected

ARTICLE 7 – AGE OF CONSENT

By using this site, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, or that you have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use this site.

ARTICLE 8 – CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon posting on the website.

If our store is acquired or merged with another company, your information may be transferred to the new owners so that we may continue to sell products to you.
