This policy applies in addition to our terms and conditions of use and sale, as applicable.
We sell in Canada only. This policy is intended to comply with applicable Canadian laws, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and, for Quebec residents, the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (as amended, including by Bill 25).
By using our website, creating an account, or placing an order, you consent to the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your personal information in accordance with this policy. You may withdraw your consent (to the extent permitted by law) by contacting us; however, this may limit your ability to use certain features or obtain certain services.
We collect only the information necessary for the purposes described in section 5.

Our online store is hosted in Quebec. However, some providers (e.g., Stripe, Google, and Meta) may process or host certain data outside Canada depending on their infrastructure. Where applicable, we take reasonable steps to ensure adequate protections are in place (contracts, security measures, and limited access).
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to achieve the purposes described in this policy or to comply with our legal and tax obligations. For example, billing and purchase information may be retained for record-keeping purposes. Once the retention period has expired, the information is securely destroyed or anonymized.
