Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Shampoo. We respect the importance of personal privacy and are committed to handling personal information responsibly when customers visit shampoostores.com or use the features available through our website.

This Privacy Policy explains the general categories of information that may be collected, how such information may be used, the circumstances in which it may be shared, and the choices that individuals may have regarding their personal information.

By using our website, you acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to review this policy. Where consent is legally required for a particular processing activity, we will seek consent in accordance with applicable law. This policy does not replace any additional notice or consent requirement imposed by relevant privacy legislation.

2. Information We May Collect

The information collected may depend on how you interact with Shampoo and which website features you use.

Personal information may include details you provide when placing an order, creating an account, or using other available shopping functions. Depending on the transaction, this may include your name, billing details, delivery information, and information necessary to process your purchase.

We may also receive information about transactions, selected products, order status, and interactions with relevant website functions.

Certain technical information may be collected automatically when you visit the website. This may include your device type, browser characteristics, general usage information, pages viewed, and technical identifiers associated with your visit.

We aim to collect information that is reasonably necessary for legitimate business purposes and to handle it in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

3. How We Use Personal Information

Personal information may be used for purposes such as processing and managing orders, maintaining customer accounts, supporting website functionality, preventing fraudulent activity, and improving the shopping experience.

We may also use relevant information to maintain business records, respond to inquiries submitted through available website functions, address transaction-related issues, and comply with legal obligations.

Technical information may help us understand how visitors use the website, identify performance issues, maintain security, and improve the organization and usability of our online services.

Where consent is required for marketing or other optional activities, information will be used for those purposes only in accordance with applicable consent requirements.

Where privacy laws require a lawful basis for processing personal information, the applicable basis may depend on the circumstances.

Processing may be necessary to perform a contract, take steps requested before entering into a contract, comply with legal obligations, protect legitimate interests, or carry out activities for which valid consent has been provided.

Legitimate interests may include maintaining website security, preventing fraud, improving website performance, and managing ordinary business operations, provided those interests do not override rights protected by applicable law.

Individuals may have the right to withdraw consent where processing relies on consent. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Shampoo may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality, remember certain preferences, understand website usage, and improve the browsing experience.

Some cookies may be necessary for core website functions, while others may support analytics, personalization, or marketing where those features are used.

Depending on the applicable legal requirements, visitors may be able to manage cookie preferences through a consent interface or browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of some website features.

Where consent is required before non-essential cookies are used, the relevant consent requirements will apply.

6. Sharing Personal Information

Personal information may be shared with service providers that help operate the website or perform necessary business functions. These providers may support activities such as payment processing, website hosting, technical maintenance, security, analytics, and order administration.

Information may also be disclosed when necessary to comply with applicable laws, respond to valid legal requests, protect rights and safety, investigate suspected fraud, or enforce relevant contractual terms.

Where a business restructuring, merger, or similar transaction occurs, personal information may be handled as part of that transaction subject to applicable legal safeguards.

We do not intend this policy to authorize the unrestricted sale or disclosure of personal information. Any activity involving personal information will be governed by applicable privacy laws and relevant disclosures.

7. Data Security

We recognize that safeguarding personal information is important. Shampoo aims to use reasonable organizational, technical, and administrative measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, accidental loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

No online system or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. For this reason, we cannot promise absolute security, but we aim to manage personal information responsibly and take reasonable steps to reduce potential risks.

Customers can also help protect their information by using secure devices, maintaining strong passwords, and avoiding the disclosure of account credentials to unauthorized individuals.

8. Data Retention

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Retention periods may depend on the nature of the information, the purpose for which it was collected, legal recordkeeping obligations, the resolution of disputes, and the need to maintain appropriate business records.

When information is no longer required, we aim to delete it, anonymize it, or otherwise handle it in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

9. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and the laws that apply, you may have rights relating to your personal information. These rights may include requesting access to personal information, correcting inaccurate information, requesting deletion, restricting certain processing, objecting to certain uses, or receiving information in a portable format.

You may also have rights concerning targeted advertising, certain forms of profiling, or the sale or sharing of personal information as those terms are defined by applicable law.

These rights are subject to legal conditions and exceptions. We will assess applicable requests in accordance with the relevant legal requirements.

10. Children’s Privacy

Shampoo is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children in circumstances where such collection is prohibited by law. Where applicable, children should use online shopping services only with appropriate parental or guardian involvement.

If we become aware that personal information has been collected from a child in violation of applicable requirements, we will take appropriate steps as required by law.

11. Third-Party Services

Our website may rely on third-party services or include features that interact with external platforms. These services may have their own privacy policies and data-handling practices.

We encourage visitors to review the privacy information provided by relevant third parties before using their services. Shampoo’s Privacy Policy does not necessarily govern the independent practices of external providers.
