Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy – Furendi

Section 1 – What do we do with your information?
When you purchase something from our store, we collect the personal information you provide as part of the buying and selling process — such as your name, address, and email address.
When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s IP address to learn more about your browser and operating system.
If applicable, we may send you emails about our store, new products, and other updates — only if we have your explicit permission.

Section 2 – Consent
When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for delivery, or return a purchase, we assume that you consent to our collecting and using it for that specific purpose only.
If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason — like marketing — we will either ask you directly for your express consent or provide you with the opportunity to decline.
If you change your mind after giving consent, you may withdraw your permission for us to contact you or continue collecting, using, or disclosing your information at any time by contacting us at support@furendi.com.

Section 3 – Disclosure
We may disclose your personal information if we are required to do so by law or if you violate our Terms of Service.

Section 4 – Shopify
Our store is hosted on Shopify. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.
Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases, and the general Shopify application on a secure server behind a firewall.
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as necessary to complete your transaction and is then deleted.
All direct payment gateways adhere to the PCI-DSS standards managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.
For more details, see Shopify’s Terms of Service or Privacy Policy.

Section 5 – Third-Party Services
In general, third-party providers used by us will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to perform their services.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we are required to provide to them for purchase-related transactions.
We recommend that you read their privacy policies so you understand how your personal information will be handled by them.
Some providers may be located in or have facilities in a different jurisdiction than you or us. So if you proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your data may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) where the provider or its facilities are located.
For example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway in the United States, your personal information 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 application or website, this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service no longer apply.
Our store uses Google Analytics to learn more about who visits our website and what pages are viewed.

Section 6 – Security
To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed.
If you provide us with your credit card information, the information is encrypted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology and stored with AES-256 encryption.
Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.
