2. How we use information
We use personal information to:
- Operate the online store, maintain your cart and account, process payments, fulfill orders, arrange delivery, and manage returns.

Where privacy law requires a specific legal basis for processing, we rely on the applicable basis, such as performing a contract, complying with law, legitimate interests where permitted, or consent.
3. Cookies and similar technologies
Our WooCommerce store uses technologies that support essential functions such as the shopping cart, checkout, account login, and security. Depending on the plugins and tools installed, we may also use analytics or advertising technologies. You can learn about categories, controls, and choices in our Cookie Policy. Where required, we request consent before placing nonessential cookies and honor applicable privacy preferences.

We may provide the minimum information reasonably necessary to vendors that help us operate our business, including hosting and website providers, payment processors, fraud-prevention partners, shipping carriers, fulfillment providers, customer-support platforms, email or SMS delivery platforms, and analytics or advertising providers if used. These recipients may process information for the services they provide, subject to applicable agreements and law. We may also disclose information to comply with legal obligations, protect rights and safety, or as part of an actual or proposed business transfer, subject to appropriate safeguards.
Mobile messaging privacy: We do not sell, rent, or share mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in information, or text messaging consent with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.
