Your data is stored on secure cloud infrastructure (Supabase, hosted on AWS). We use industry-standard encryption for data in transit (TLS) and at rest. Access to your personal data is restricted to authorised personnel only.
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, we remove your personal information within 30 days, except where we are legally required to retain certain records (e.g., financial transactions for tax purposes).
6. Cookies & local storage
We use local storage (not cookies) to remember your cart, preferences, and login session on your device. This data stays on your browser and is not sent to our servers unless you place an order or log in. We do not use third-party advertising trackers.
