Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how The Christmas Tree collects, uses and shares personal information when you visit our store, make a purchase, contact us or otherwise interact with us. Our store is hosted by Shopify, which processes personal information to provide the online store and related services. See Shopify's privacy information for details about Shopify's own practices.

Information we collect

Depending on how you interact with the store, we may collect contact details, billing and delivery addresses, order and transaction details, communications, and technical information such as device, browser, IP address and interactions with the store. Payment details are generally processed by the payment provider; we do not intend to store full payment card numbers.

How we use information

We use information to process and fulfil orders, arrange delivery and tracking, provide customer support, prevent fraud, manage returns, operate and improve the store, comply with legal obligations, and send marketing messages where permitted and, when required, with your consent.

Sharing information and international transfers

We may share necessary information with Shopify and service providers that operate the store, process payments, detect fraud, provide analytics, support customers and fulfil or deliver orders. Because this is a dropshipping store, order details such as recipient name, delivery address, contact details and ordered items may be shared with fulfilment partners, including CJdropshipping where used, and carriers so they can ship the order. Providers may process information in countries other than yours.

Cookies

Shopify and service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the store, remember preferences, understand performance and, where enabled, support advertising. You can manage cookies through your browser and any consent controls we make available.

Retention and security

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for fulfilment, records, resolving disputes and meeting legal requirements. We use reasonable safeguards, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to certain processing, receive a copy of information, withdraw consent, or complain to a data protection authority. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link in the message. To make a privacy request, email arshmalkh@outlook.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Children

This store is not intended for children to make purchases independently, and we do not knowingly collect children's personal information in violation of applicable law.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy as our services or legal obligations change. Questions or privacy requests: arshmalkh@outlook.com.

Before launch: Review this notice against the apps, analytics, advertising tools, markets and data practices actually enabled on the store.
