How We Use Your Personal Information — and Our Legal Basis

For EU, UK, and EEA residents: under the General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR / UK GDPR), we are required to have a lawful basis for each purpose for which we process your personal information. The table below sets out each purpose and the lawful basis we rely on.

Providing and improving the Services — Lawful basis: Performance of a contract.
We use your personal information to process your payments, fulfil your orders, manage your account, arrange shipping, facilitate returns and exchanges, and send notifications related to your account. This processing is necessary to perform our contract with you.

Marketing and promotional communications — Lawful basis: Consent.
We send marketing, advertising and promotional communications by email only where you have actively opted in to receive them. You may withdraw your consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any marketing email. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. We do not send marketing communications on the basis of legitimate interests.

Personalised advertising (cookies and pixels) — Lawful basis: Consent.
We may use advertising and tracking technologies such as Meta Pixel or Google Ads to show you relevant advertisements on third-party platforms based on your interactions with our store. This processing only occurs where you have given your consent via our cookie consent tool. You may withdraw consent at any time through your cookie preferences.

Security and fraud prevention — Lawful basis: Legitimate interests.
We use your personal information to authenticate your account, detect and investigate potentially fraudulent, illegal, or malicious activity, and secure our services. We have assessed that these legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.

Communicating with you (customer support) — Lawful basis: Performance of a contract / Legitimate interests.
We use your personal information to provide customer support, respond to enquiries, and maintain our business relationship with you.

Legal compliance — Lawful basis: Legal obligation.
We use your personal information to comply with applicable law, respond to valid legal process, and enforce or investigate potential violations of our terms or policies.

How Long We Keep Your Personal Information

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to our legal obligations. Specifically:

  • Order and transaction data: retained for 7 years to comply with Czech and EU accounting and tax law obligations.

  • Account data: retained for as long as your account is active, and for 2 years after account closure or last interaction, after which it is deleted or anonymised.

Our 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. Information you submit may be transmitted to and processed by Shopify and its sub-processors, who may be located in countries other than where you reside. Where Shopify processes personal information for its own purposes (such as fraud detection across its merchant network), Shopify acts as an independent data controller. To learn more, visit the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy at privacy.shopify.com.

International Transfers

We may transfer, store, and process your personal information outside the country where you reside. If we transfer your personal information out of the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we will rely on recognised transfer mechanisms such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, or any equivalent contracts issued by the relevant UK competent authority, unless the transfer is to a country that has been determined to provide an adequate level of protection.

The Services may include links to third-party websites or platforms. We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of those sites. Information you share on public or semi-public venues, including third-party social networking platforms, may be viewable by other users without limitation.

Children’s Data

The Services are not intended for use by children under the age of majority in your jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it. As of the date of this Privacy Policy, we do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.

Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information. However, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We recommend you do not use unsecured channels to communicate sensitive information to us.
