How does Shopify keep your personal information secure?
Shopify follows industry standards on information security management to safeguard sensitive information, such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details and any other personal information entrusted to them. Shopify’s information security systems apply to people, processes and information technology systems on a risk-management basis.
Shopify performs annual audits to ensure that their handling of your credit card information aligns with industry guidelines. Shopify is certified as a PCI DSS Level 1 compliant service provider, which is the highest level of compliance available, and the Shopify platform is audited annually by a third-party qualified security assessor.
SECTION 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to 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 by which your personal information will be handled.
In particular, remember that certain providers may be located, or have facilities that are located, in 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 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.
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, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store’s 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 Service.
