Our Service is intended for individuals 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18.

CONSENT
We will obtain your consent to collect, use or disclose personal information, unless we are permitted or required by law to do so without consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice; withdrawing consent may affect our ability to provide certain services, such as processing an order already placed.
We do not sell your personal information.
MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS
We may send marketing or promotional communications only where permitted by applicable law, including Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL), and only where appropriate consent has been obtained. You may withdraw consent to marketing communications at any time using the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us directly.
LOG DATA AND COOKIES
We may collect information that your browser sends when you visit the Service ("Log Data"), which may include your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit, and the time and date of your visit. We use cookies and similar technologies to operate, improve, and analyze the Service; you can set your browser to refuse cookies, though some parts of the Service may not function properly without them.
We may use third-party services, including analytics and advertising tools, to help us understand how the Service is used. These providers have their own privacy policies governing how they use such information.
SERVICE PROVIDERS
We may employ third-party companies, including our e-commerce platform, payment processor, and shipping carriers, to facilitate the Service on our behalf. These providers may access personal information only to perform tasks for us and are required to protect it and not use it for any other purpose.
CROSS-BORDER PROCESSING
Some of our service providers may store or process personal information outside Ontario or outside Canada. Where this occurs, that information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction where it is stored or processed. We use reasonable contractual and security measures to protect personal information handled by our service providers.
RETENTION AND DESTRUCTION
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes it was collected for, or as required for legal, regulatory, or business purposes. When no longer required, we securely destroy, delete, or anonymize it.
SAFEGUARDS
We use reasonable physical, organizational and technical safeguards to protect personal information against loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification.
BREACH NOTIFICATION
If a privacy breach creates a real risk of significant harm, we will notify affected individuals and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada where required by law, and keep records of the breach as required.
