We comply with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) and obtain the consent required for commercial electronic communications.

For example, when you place an order, we use the information necessary to process payment, fulfill your purchase, and arrange delivery.

Additional consent may be required for purposes such as promotional communications or certain tracking technologies.

You may withdraw your consent to certain uses of your personal information by contacting us.

Withdrawal of consent is subject to applicable legal or contractual restrictions. In some circumstances, withdrawing consent may limit our ability to provide requested services.

We will explain any relevant consequences when necessary.

5. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to support essential website functions and, where enabled, analytics and advertising services.

Cookies are small data files stored on your device when you visit a website.

They can help us maintain shopping-cart functionality, remember preferences, support account sessions, and understand website activity.

We may also use cookies, tracking pixels, or similar technologies to measure the effectiveness of advertising and provide more relevant marketing, where permitted.

Certain tracking technologies may involve third-party service providers, including Shopify and advertising or analytics platforms.

Cookie preferences

You can manage certain cookies through your browser settings and any privacy preference tools made available on our website.

Where required by applicable law, we will request your consent before activating non-essential tracking technologies.

Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of some website features.

We encourage customers to review the privacy settings available through their browsers and our website.

6. Sharing Personal Information

We do not disclose personal information to third parties without an appropriate business purpose, legal authorization, or required consent.

We may share information with trusted service providers when reasonably necessary to operate our business.

Shopify

Our website is hosted by Shopify.

Shopify provides our e-commerce platform, shopping-cart functionality, checkout infrastructure, and related services.

Shopify may collect and process personal information in connection with your use of our store.

Depending on the Shopify features enabled for our business, Shopify may also process information to support security, analytics, personalization, and enhanced services.

For more information, please consult the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy.

Payment Providers

Payment information may be shared with the payment providers necessary to process transactions, verify payments, and issue refunds.

Shipping and Delivery Companies

We share necessary delivery information with shipping carriers, including Purolator, Canpar, UPS, or other carriers used to fulfill customer orders.

This information generally includes the recipient's name, delivery address, telephone number, and any other details required to complete delivery.

Business Service Providers

We may share information with service providers assisting with website operations, technical support, data storage, analytics, customer service, marketing, and fraud prevention.

Such information is shared only for appropriate purposes and subject to applicable privacy requirements.

Legal Obligations

We may disclose personal information where required or permitted by law, including in response to valid legal proceedings or regulatory requests.

Business Transactions

If our business undergoes a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable legal requirements.

We do not authorize service providers to use information entrusted to them for unrelated purposes.

7. Storage and International Processing of Information

C&C Royal Cosmetics Ltd. is located in Ontario, Canada.

However, our website operates using Shopify and other technology providers that may store or process personal information in Canada or other countries.

As a result, customer information may be transferred to, stored in, or accessed from jurisdictions outside Ontario or Canada.

Information processed outside Canada may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction where it is processed, including lawful access requests by authorities in that jurisdiction.

We take reasonable steps to ensure that service providers handle personal information appropriately and that any required privacy assessments, contractual protections, and other legal safeguards are implemented.

Where applicable, we comply with requirements governing the transfer of personal information outside Quebec.

8. Protection of Personal Information

Protecting customer information is important to us.

We use appropriate administrative, technical, and organizational measures to safeguard personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, misuse, alteration, loss, or destruction.

These measures may include restricted access to customer information, account security controls, secure technology services, and appropriate safeguards provided by our service providers.

Access to personal information is limited to individuals and service providers who require it for legitimate business purposes.

Although we take reasonable precautions, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Customers are encouraged to protect their account credentials and avoid sharing sensitive information through unsecured communications.

If a privacy or security incident occurs, we will investigate and take appropriate action, including notifying affected individuals and relevant authorities when required by applicable law.

9. How Long We Keep Your Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or as otherwise required or permitted by law.

Retention periods depend on the nature of the information and the reasons it is needed.

For example, certain purchase and transaction records may need to be retained to comply with Canadian accounting, taxation, and recordkeeping requirements.

Customer-service information may be retained for an appropriate period to resolve inquiries or disputes.

Once personal information is no longer required, we will take appropriate steps to securely delete, destroy, or anonymize it, subject to applicable legal obligations.

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your province of residence and applicable privacy legislation, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information.

These may include the right to:

  • Request access to personal information we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
  • Withdraw consent to certain uses or disclosures of personal information.
  • Request deletion or anonymization of information where permitted by law.
  • Request information about how your personal information is collected, used, stored, or disclosed.
  • Request a portable copy of eligible information where applicable law provides this right.
  • Raise concerns or submit complaints about our privacy practices.

We may need to verify your identity before responding to a request.

We will review and respond to privacy requests within the timeframes required by applicable law.

Certain requests may be subject to legal exceptions or record-retention obligations.

Additional rights for Quebec residents

Residents of Quebec may have additional rights under Quebec's private-sector privacy legislation, including rights relating to data portability and, in certain circumstances, the cessation of dissemination or de-indexing of personal information.

We will respect these rights where applicable.
