Shopify
Our store is hosted by Shopify.
Shopify processes personal information on our behalf and may also process information for its own legitimate purposes as described in Shopify's privacy documentation.
Your use of our store may therefore involve personal information being processed through Shopify's systems and service providers.
Sharing Personal Information
We may disclose personal information to service providers and business partners when reasonably necessary to operate our business.
These may include:
- Shopify
- Payment processors
- Shipping carriers
- Fulfillment providers
- Email and communication providers

- Analytics providers
- Advertising providers
- Fraud-prevention services
- Professional advisers
- Technology vendors
We may also disclose information where required by law, legal process, governmental request, or when reasonably necessary to protect our rights, customers, property, or safety.
Sale or Sharing of Personal Information
ByAnyMeans does not knowingly sell personal information in exchange for money.
However, certain privacy laws may define some disclosures involving advertising, analytics, cookies, or cross-context behavioral advertising as a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising.
Where applicable, customers may have the right to opt out of these activities.
Where required by law and technically supported, we may recognize legally valid browser-based opt-out preference signals.
Marketing Communications
Where permitted, we may send promotional emails or other marketing communications.
You can unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe link included in the message.
Even if you opt out of marketing, we may still send transactional communications relating to purchases, returns, account activity, or customer support.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to:
- Provide services
- Maintain business and tax records
- Resolve disputes
- Prevent fraud
- Enforce agreements
- Meet legal and regulatory requirements
Retention periods vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical measures intended to protect personal information.
No electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Children's Privacy
Our services are not intended for children under the age required to consent to online data processing in their jurisdiction.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.
If you believe a child has provided personal information improperly, contact us at info@byanymeansshop.com.

These rights are subject to applicable legal exceptions.
We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.
Authorized agents may submit requests where permitted by law, but additional verification may be required.
International Data Processing
Because we use Shopify and other service providers operating internationally, personal information may be processed in countries other than the country where you live.
Where required, appropriate safeguards are used for international transfers of personal information.
Third-Party Websites
Our website may contain links to third-party websites.
ByAnyMeans is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party services.
