-
Contractual necessity (e.g., to process orders and payments, deliver products, provide support).

We do not sell your personal information for money. Depending on your jurisdiction, certain data sharing (e.g., for cross-context behavioral ads) may be considered a “sale” or “sharing.” See Your Rights and Choices for opt-out options where applicable.
Relationship with Shopify
The Services are hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes personal information about your access to and use of the Services in order to provide and improve the Services for you. Information you submit to the Services will be transmitted to and shared with Shopify, as well as third parties that may be located in countries other than where you reside, in order to provide and improve the Services.
To help protect, grow, and improve our business, we may use certain Shopify enhanced features that incorporate data and information obtained from your interactions with our store, with other merchants, and with Shopify. In these circumstances, Shopify is responsible for the processing of your personal information for those features, including responding to requests to exercise rights over use of your personal information for those purposes. To learn more about how Shopify uses your personal information and any rights you may have, please see the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy and the Shopify Privacy Portal (where you may exercise applicable rights).
Third-Party Websites and Links
The Services may provide links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow links to sites not affiliated or controlled by us, you should review their privacy and security policies and other terms and conditions. We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy or security of such sites, including the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information found on those sites. Information you provide on public or semi-public venues, including information you share on third-party social networking platforms, may be viewable by other users of the Services and/or users of those third-party platforms without limitation as to its use by us or by a third party. Our inclusion of such links does not, by itself, imply any endorsement of the content on such platforms or of their owners or operators, except as disclosed on the Services.
Children’s Data
The Services are not intended to be used by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information about children under the age of majority in your jurisdiction. If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with their personal information, you may contact us using the details set out below to request deletion. As of the Effective Date of this Privacy Policy, we do not have actual knowledge that we “share” or “sell” (as those terms are defined in applicable law) personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.
Security and Retention of Your Information
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information; however, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee “perfect security.” Any information you send to us may not be secure in transit. Please avoid using unsecured channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information.
How long we retain your personal information depends on different factors, such as whether we need the information to maintain your account, provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce contracts and policies. We will retain personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
Automated Decision-Making and Profiling
We may use automated systems (including via our service providers and advertising partners) to help personalize content and offers, prevent fraud, and improve our Services. Where such processing produces legal or similarly significant effects and is conducted in the EEA/UK, we will implement safeguards and, where required, obtain your consent or provide an avenue to request human review, express your point of view, and contest the decision.
International Transfers
We may transfer, store, and process your personal information outside the country where you live. If we transfer your personal information out of the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we will rely on recognized transfer mechanisms such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or the UK’s International Data Transfer Addendum, as relevant, unless the data transfer is to a country that has been determined to provide an adequate level of protection.

SMS Marketing
Aurilaya (“we,” “our,” or “us”) collects phone numbers when you voluntarily sign up to receive SMS communications. These messages may include promotional offers, order updates, cart reminders, and other informational or marketing content.
Consent to receive SMS messages is optional and is not a condition of purchase.

By opting in, you agree to receive recurring automated marketing and informational text messages. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. To opt out, reply STOP at any time. For help, reply HELP. After you opt out, you may receive a one-time message confirming your request.
We may change any short code or telephone number used to operate the Service and will notify you of these changes. Messages sent to a number we no longer control may not be received, and we are not responsible for honoring requests made in such messages.
Supported carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. You agree to provide a valid mobile number and to re-enroll if your number changes.
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for failed, delayed, or misdirected delivery of any information sent through the Service, any errors in such information, and/or any action you may or may not take in reliance on the information or Service.
We respect your right to privacy. For details on how we collect and use your data, see this Privacy Policy and our cookie/consent settings on the site.
