ARTICLE 1 – PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTED

When you make a purchase on Boutique Sonic, as part of our buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, address, email address or phone number.

When you browse Boutique Sonic, we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.

As part of email marketing, with your permission, we may send you emails about Boutique Sonic about new products and other updates or your uncompleted orders.

ARTICLE 2 - CONSENT

How do we get your consent?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it.

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

How can you withdraw your consent?

If after you have given us your consent, you change your mind and no longer consent to us contacting you or collecting your information, you can notify us by contacting us at contact@boutique-sonic.com .

ARTICLE 3 – DISCLOSURE

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

ARTICLE 4 – SHOPIFY

Boutique Sonic is hosted on Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online commerce platform that allows us to sell Boutique Sonic products and services to you.

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

For payment, if you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Shopify will store your credit card information. This information is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction information is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your order. After that, your purchase transaction information is deleted. We therefore do not have direct access to the information you used to complete your order. This information travels through Shopify and payment processors.

Indeed, all direct payment gateways comply with the PCI-DSS standard. This payment card industry security standard, PCI-DSS in English for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, is established by the five major card networks (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover Card and JCB). These standards ensure the secure processing of credit card data during your purchases on Boutique Sonic and by its service providers.

For more information, please see Shopify's Terms of Service here.

ARTICLE 5 – SERVICES PROVIDED BY THIRD PARTIES

In general, the services provided by third-party providers that we use will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us, such as payment processing.

However, some of these providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions at Boutique Sonic.

For these third-party providers, we recommend that you carefully review their privacy policies so you can understand how they will handle your personal information. You can find Visa's privacy policies here, American Express's privacy policies here, MasterCard's privacy policies here, JCB's privacy policies here, and Stripe's privacy policies here.

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

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

Once you leave the Boutique Sonic website or are redirected to a third-party website or application for payment, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or the Boutique Sonic Terms of Service.
