Style Escape Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

What we do with your information

Thank you for taking the time to read our Privacy Policy. Style Escape values its customers. We are entirely committed to protecting your privacy.

The information you provide us during the shopping experience is used to process orders, to assist us in delivering emails for administration and order delivery, as well as promotions and the newsletter if you signed up for both. We also use it to provide you with a more efficient and enjoyable future shopping experience. We also monitor site usage and customer traffic patterns to help us develop the design, content, and layout of The Style Escape website. We use all available technology to ensure that your confidential information remains secure.

When you place an order, we ask you for your name, email address, billing address, mailing address, and credit card number, including the expiration date. If you are using PayPal, the credit card information is not required, and you will be redirected to the PayPal site. This information is used to process and fulfill your order and to notify you of your order status. We keep your email address confidential. We do not give away or sell any of your contact information to any third party.

You cannot opt out of administrative type emails such as order confirmation messages, but you do not have to sign up for the newsletter or promotional emails, and can opt out of those at any time.

The Style Escape releases personal account information, in good faith, when it is believed to be reasonably necessary, for example, to comply with the law; or to enforce or apply the terms of any of our user agreements; or to protect the rights, property, and safety of The Style Escape, our customers, or impacted third parties.

How we get consent

When you give us your personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for delivery or to return a purchase, it is implied that you consent to us collecting it and using it for that specific reason.

If we ask for your personal information for another reason, such as marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

Shopify

Shopify.com hosts our website. They provide us with an online e-commerce platform to sell our products and services to you.

We store your data through Shopify's data storage, databases, and their general application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.

Payment

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

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard and American Express.

PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

Third-party services

In general, the third-party providers we use will only collect, use and disclose your information to the degree necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, some third-party providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have separate privacy policies concerning the information we must provide to them for any purchase-related transactions.

We recommend that you read these providers' privacy policies, so you understand how they handle your personal information.

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

For example, if you live in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, such as PayPal, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Once you leave our store’s website or redirect to a third-party site or application, this privacy policy or our website’s terms and conditions are no longer applicable.
