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 the services they provide. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we must provide for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies.
If you proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. For example, if you are in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway in the United States, your personal information may be subject to disclosure under U.S. legislation, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party site or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

If you provide us with your credit card information, it is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with AES-256 encryption.
