This is sometimes referred to as personal data.

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 and using it for that specific reason only. You may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at any time, by contacting us at hello@mariandfatou.com.

WHAT DO WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION?

When you purchase something from our store, as a part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information that you give us such as your name, address, and email address. When you browse our website, 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.

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party service providers we use will only collect, use and disclose your personal information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide us. However, certain third-party service 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. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers. In particular, certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than you or us. So, if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this privacy policy or our website’s Terms of Use.
