ARTICLE 1 – PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTED

When you make a purchase on our store, as part of our buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you provide, such as your name, address, and email address.

When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, which allows us to obtain more details about the browser and operating system you are using.

Email Marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products, and other updates.

 

ARTICLE 2 – CONSENT

How do you obtain my consent?

When you provide us with your personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, schedule a delivery, or return a purchase, we assume that you consent to our collection and use of your information for that purpose only.

If we ask you to provide your personal information for another reason, such as for marketing purposes, we will ask for your explicit consent or provide you with the option to decline.

How can I withdraw my consent?

If, after providing your consent, you change your mind and no longer consent to us contacting you, collecting your information, or disclosing it, you may notify us by contacting us at contact@ninesconcept.com or by mail at: Nines Concept: Rue de Linthout 230, 1040 Etterbeek 

ARTICLE 3 – DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or if you violate our Terms and Conditions of Sale and Use.

 

ARTICLE 4 – SHOPIFY

Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our services and products.

Your data is stored in Shopify's data storage system and databases, and within the Shopify application itself. Your data is maintained on a secure server protected by a firewall.

Payment:

If you make a purchase through a direct payment gateway, Shopify will store your credit card information. This information is encrypted in accordance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). The details of your purchase transaction are retained only as long as necessary to complete your order. Once your order is finalized, the transaction details are deleted.

All direct payment gateways comply with PCI-DSS, which is managed by the PCI Security Standards Council and is the result of the joint effort of companies like Visa, MasterCard, American Express et Discover.

The requirements of the PCI-DSS ensure the secure handling of credit card data by our store and its service providers.

For more information, please refer to Shopify's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

 

ARTICLE 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers we use will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to perform the services they provide to us.

However, some third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we are required to provide them for your purchase transactions.

Regarding these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies carefully so that you understand how they will handle your personal information.

It is important to note that some providers may be located in or have facilities in a different jurisdiction than yours or ours. Therefore, if you decide to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party provider, your information may then be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction in which that provider is located or the jurisdiction in which their facilities are situated.

For example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway based in the United States, the information you provided to complete the transaction may be disclosed under U.S. legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Once you leave our store’s site or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or by the Terms and Conditions of our website.

ARTICLE 6 – SECURITY

To protect your personal data, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure that it is not lost, misappropriated, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed inappropriately.

If you provide us with your credit card information, it will be encrypted using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol and stored with AES-256 encryption. While no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) requirements and implement additional industry-recognized standards.
