Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 20, 2016

At Chiragh Apparel, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect, how we use it, and the steps we take to protect it.

SECTION 1 - What Do We Do With Your Information?

When you make a purchase from our store, we collect personal information such as your name, address, and email address to complete the transaction and process your order.

We also automatically receive information from your browser, including your IP address, to help us understand your browsing preferences, operating system, and browser type.

If you’ve opted into email marketing, with your permission, we may send you updates about our store, new product launches, promotions, and other relevant news.

SECTION 2 - Consent

How Do You Get My Consent?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your payment, place an order, arrange for delivery, or return a purchase, we assume you consent to us collecting and using that information for those specific purposes.

If we ask for your personal information for additional reasons (such as marketing), we will either ask directly for your consent or provide you with an option to opt-out.

How Do I Withdraw My Consent?

If you change your mind after opting in, you can withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, simply contact us at chiraghapparel@gmail.com.

SECTION 3 - Disclosure

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

SECTION 4 - Shopify

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

Your data is stored securely through Shopify’s servers, and they comply with stringent security measures to protect your information.

Payment:

If you choose to complete a purchase via direct payment gateway, Shopify will store your credit card details, encrypted using PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) to protect your data. Transaction data is stored only as long as necessary to complete your purchase and is deleted once the transaction is complete.

All direct payment gateways follow PCI-DSS standards, managed by the PCI Security Standards Council.

For further details, you can refer to Shopify’s Terms of Service and Privacy Statement.

SECTION 5 - Third-Party Services

We use third-party services to process your transactions and provide additional services. These third-party providers only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to perform the services they offer.

Certain third-party providers, such as payment processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we provide for your transaction. We encourage you to review their policies to understand how your information will be handled.

Some third-party providers may operate in jurisdictions different from your own. If your transaction involves services from a provider located in another jurisdiction, your personal information may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction.

Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party website, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy.

Links:

If you click on links from our site, they may direct you to other sites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, so we encourage you to review their policies.

Google Analytics:

We use Google Analytics to monitor and understand site traffic, and how visitors interact with our website.

SECTION 6 - Security

We take reasonable precautions to safeguard your personal information. We use SSL encryption to secure any credit card details you provide, and your data is stored using AES-256 encryption to ensure its security.

While no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, we adhere to PCI-DSS standards and take additional steps to ensure the safe handling of your information.
