Privacy policy

This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit or make a purchase from shopnoteworthy.ca / shopnoteworthy.com (the “Site”).

OUR STORE IS POWERED BY SHOPIFY

Our online store is hosted by Shopify Inc. When you visit our Site or make a purchase, Shopify processes your personal information to enable us to provide our services. This includes using your data to support services based on your interactions with other merchants and with Shopify itself. By using our Site, you acknowledge that your information will be shared with Shopify and other third parties (which may be located in other countries) in order to facilitate our services, process payments, fulfill orders, and improve the overall shopping experience.

PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies installed on your device. As you browse the Site, we collect information about the web pages or products you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and how you interact with the Site. We call this automatically-collected information “Device Information.”

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

“Cookies” are data files placed on your device that often include an anonymous unique identifier. Learn more about cookies and how to disable them at http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
“Log files” track actions on the Site, collecting data such as your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and timestamps.
“Web beacons,” “tags,” and “pixels” are electronic files used to record browsing information.

When you make (or attempt to make) a purchase through the Site, we collect personal information from you, including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment details (e.g., credit card numbers), email address, and phone number. This is referred to as “Order Information.”

When we mention “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we mean both Device Information and Order Information.

HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We use Order Information to:

Fulfill orders placed through the Site (process payments, arrange shipping, and provide invoices or order confirmations).
Communicate with you.
Screen orders for potential risk or fraud.
Provide you with information or advertising (if aligned with your preferences).

Device Information is used to screen for potential risk and fraud (especially IP addresses) and to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by analyzing how customers browse and interact with the Site or assessing the effectiveness of marketing campaigns).
