Section 2 – Consent

How do you obtain my consent?

When you provide us with your personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or make a return, you consent to our collection and use for that specific reason only.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, such as marketing, we will either ask you directly for your express consent, or give you the opportunity to say no.
How can I revoke my consent?

If after you have accepted you change your mind, you can withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the collection, use or disclosure of your information, at any time, by contacting us at info@hawtsw.com

Section 3 – Disclosure

We may disclose your personal information if we are required to do so by law or if you violate our terms of service.

Section 4 – Shopify

Our store is hosted on Shopify inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.

Your data is stored through Shopify's data warehouse, databases, and the general Shopify application. Your data is stored on a secure server behind a firewall.

Pay:

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 Standard Data Security (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only to the extent necessary to complete the purchase transaction. After it is completed, your purchase transaction information is deleted.

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

PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by retailers and their service providers.

Section 5 – Third Party Services

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to enable them to perform the services they provide to us.
However, certain 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 to them for your purchase-related transactions.

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

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

Once you leave our store website or are redirected to a third-party site or application, you are no longer governed by this privacy policy or our website's terms of service.

Section 6 – Security

To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure that it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed.

If you provide us with your credit card information, your credit card information is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and stored with AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional industry-accepted standards.
