Privacy Policy
Last Updated: April 17, 2026
SweetandSalty operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and services, to offer you, as a customer, a curated shopping experience ("the Services"). SweetandSalty is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and disclose your personal data when you visit, use, or make a purchase or other transaction via the Services, or otherwise communicate with us.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using and accessing any of the Services, you confirm that you have read this Privacy Policy and understand how your information is collected, used, and disclosed as described herein.
Personal Data We Collect or Process

How We Use Your Personal Data
Depending on how you interact with us or which of the Services you use, we may use your personal data for the following purposes:
-
Provide, Personalize, and Improve the Services: We use your personal data to provide the Services, including to fulfill our agreement with you, manage your payments, process your orders, remember your preferences, send account-related notifications, manage purchases, returns, and exchanges, create and manage your account, arrange shipping, enable you to leave reviews, and create a personalized shopping experience (e.g., by recommending relevant products). This also includes using the data to improve the Services generally.

Security and Fraud Prevention: We use your data to authenticate your account, provide a secure payment and shopping experience, detect and investigate suspected fraudulent or illegal activity, and protect our services. If you register an account, you are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure. We strongly recommend that you do not share your password with anyone.

How We Share Your Personal Data
Under certain circumstances, we may share your personal data with third parties for legitimate purposes in accordance with this Privacy Policy. These include:
-
With Shopify, suppliers, and other third parties who perform services on our behalf (e.g., IT management, payment processing, data analytics, customer service, cloud storage, inventory management, and shipping).
-
With business and marketing partners to offer marketing services and advertise to you. For example, we use Shopify to support personalized advertising via third-party services. Our partners use your information in accordance with their own privacy policies. Depending on where you reside, you may have the right to ask us not to share your data for targeted advertising.
-
When you request or consent to us sharing certain information (e.g., to send products to you or via social media integrations).
-
With our affiliates or within our corporate group.
-
In connection with a business transaction (such as a merger or bankruptcy), to comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms of purchase, or to protect the Services and our customers' rights.
Our Relationship with Shopify
The Services are hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes personal data about your access to and use of the Services to provide and improve them for you. Information you provide is sent to Shopify and to third parties who may be located in countries other than your residence. To protect and develop our business, we use certain extended features of Shopify, which may use data collected from your interaction with our store, in combination with other merchants. In these cases, Shopify is responsible for the processing of your personal data. To learn more about how Shopify uses your personal data, you can visit [Shopify's Consumer Privacy Policy]. You can also exercise certain rights via Shopify's privacy portal.
Third-Party Websites and Links
The Services may contain links to websites operated by third parties. If you click on these, you should read their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the security or privacy of these sites. Information you publicly share on, for example, social networks may also become visible to other users without restriction from our side.
Children's Information
The Services are not intended for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of majority. If you are a parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with their personal data, you can contact us to request its deletion. We do not "share" or "sell" (as defined by law) data from individuals under 16 years of age.
Security and Storage of Your Information
Please note that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We cannot guarantee "perfect security," and information sent over the internet is always at your own risk. How long we retain your personal data depends on several factors, such as whether we need the information to maintain your account, provide the Services, comply with legal obligations (e.g., accounting law), or resolve disputes.
Your Rights and Choices (GDPR)
Depending on where you reside, you have several rights related to your personal data. We never discriminate against customers who exercise their rights:
-
Right to Access (Right to Know): You have the right to request an extract of the personal data we hold about you.
-
Right to Erasure (Right to Be Forgotten): You have the right to request that we delete your personal data, with certain statutory exceptions.
-
Right to Rectification: You have the right to request that inaccurate data be corrected.

International Transfers
Please note that we may transfer, store, and process your personal data outside the country you reside in (e.g., outside the EEA/UK). In such transfers, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as through the EU Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC), to guarantee that your information is secure.
