Our utilization of third-party services is guided by certain principles. These service providers are allowed to gather, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to carry out the services they offer to us.
However, it’s crucial to note that specific service providers, particularly those dealing with payment gateways and payment transaction processing, possess their unique privacy policies. These policies govern the use of information we must provide for your purchasing transactions.
