Privacy Policy

Last updated: 25 October 2026.

AETHERION operates this store and related website, content, features, products and services (the “Services”). Our store is powered by Shopify. This policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, transfer and protect personal information when you visit the website, purchase products, interact with us or use the Services. If these provisions conflict with our Terms of Service about the processing of personal information, this Privacy Policy governs.

Personal information we collect

Depending on how you interact with us and the law applicable to you, we may collect: your name and contact details; shipping and billing addresses; email and telephone numbers; payment and transaction information; account credentials and preferences; items viewed, added to carts, ordered, returned or cancelled; messages you send us; device, browser, network and IP information; identifiers and data about your interactions with our store. Personal information does not include data irreversibly anonymized so it cannot reasonably identify someone.

Sources of information

We receive information directly from you when you browse, order or contact us; automatically from your device and through cookies and similar technologies; and from Shopify, payment, shipping, analytics, marketing and other service providers as legally permitted.

How we use personal information

• To provide and improve the Services, fulfill contracts, process payments and orders, arrange shipping and returns, manage customer accounts and respond to service requests.
• To remember preferences and provide relevant content or recommendations.
• To send marketing or promotional messages, where permitted by law and in line with your choices, and to measure advertising performance.
• To authenticate users, protect accounts, detect suspected fraud or unlawful conduct and maintain service security.
• To meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements and respond to lawful requests.

Where applicable, processing relies on performance of a contract, compliance with law, legitimate interests, or consent. You can withdraw consent when processing relies on it, without affecting earlier lawful processing.

When we disclose information

We may share necessary personal information with Shopify, payment processors, shipping companies, hosting, IT and customer-support providers, analytics and marketing partners, affiliated businesses, and professional advisers. We may disclose information when you direct us to do so, for a lawful transaction or business transfer, or to comply with a legal obligation or defend rights. Depending on your jurisdiction, sharing data for targeted advertising may be considered a sale or sharing of personal information; applicable opt-out rights are described below.

Our relationship with Shopify

Shopify hosts the Services and processes information to operate and improve its commerce platform. Information may be shared with Shopify and its providers across borders. Certain enhanced Shopify features use information about how customers interact with this and other merchants' stores; Shopify may be independently responsible for those activities. Details on Shopify's processing and consumer rights can be found at privacy.shopify.com and Shopify's privacy information.

Third-party websites

Our Services can link to independent websites or social-media services. We do not control their privacy or security practices. Please review their notices before sharing information. Content you post in public or semi-public areas may be visible to others.

Children's data

Our Services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect information from children below the applicable age of majority. Parents or guardians can contact us to request deletion where applicable. We do not knowingly sell or share the personal data of children younger than 16.

Security and retention

We use appropriate measures to protect personal information, but no method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure. Do not send sensitive details over insecure channels. We keep information only for as long as necessary to provide the Services, comply with accounting and legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce agreements, taking applicable retention requirements into account.

Your privacy rights and choices

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may request access to or information about your data, correction, deletion, portability or restriction, and you may object to some processing. You may withdraw consent when it is the legal basis for processing. You may opt out of marketing messages using the unsubscribe link, while still receiving essential transactional communications. Some jurisdictions give the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of data for targeted advertising; visit Your Privacy Choices or contact us. We respect applicable Global Privacy Control signals where required. These rights are subject to applicable legal exceptions. We may verify your identity or the authority of a representative before acting, and will respond within applicable legal deadlines. We will not discriminate against you for exercising protected privacy rights.

Additional rights in the EEA and UK

Where applicable, you may object to processing, request restriction, withdraw consent and complain to a supervisory authority. An EEA authority list is available at the European Data Protection Board.

Complaints

Contact us first with concerns. Depending on your jurisdiction, you may appeal a decision or lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.

International transfers

Your information may be processed outside your country. For transfers outside the EEA or UK where required, appropriate legal transfer mechanisms, including recognized standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards, are used unless another valid legal ground applies.

Policy updates

We may revise this policy to reflect changes to our services, practices or law. The revised policy and its updated date will be posted here, and further notice will be given where required.
