PRIVACY POLICY
Owner: AVENA WORKS
ARTICLE 1 – PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTED
When you make a purchase from our store, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you provide to us, such as your name, address, and email address.
When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, which allows us to learn more about your browser and operating system.
Email marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products, and other updates.
ARTICLE 2 – CONSENT
How do you obtain my consent?
When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for delivery, or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting your information and using it for that specific purpose only.
If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, such as marketing, we will either ask you directly for your explicit consent or give you the opportunity to refuse.
How can I withdraw my consent?
If after giving your consent you change your mind and no longer consent to us contacting you, collecting your information, or disclosing it, you may notify us by contacting us at avenaworkspro@gmail.com.
ARTICLE 3 – DISCLOSURE
We may disclose your personal information if required by law or if you violate our Terms of Service.
ARTICLE 4 – SHOPIFY
Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.
Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage system, databases, and general Shopify application. Your data is stored on a secure server protected by a firewall.
Payment:
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify stores your credit card data. This data is encrypted according to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction information is stored only as long as necessary to complete your order. Once the transaction is completed, your purchase information is deleted.
All direct payment gateways adhere to PCI-DSS standards managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of companies such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.
For more information, please consult Shopify’s Terms of Service or Privacy Policy.
ARTICLE 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
Generally, the third-party providers we use will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to perform the services they provide to us.
However, some third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase transactions.
For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand how they will handle your personal information.
It is important to note that certain providers may be located in or have facilities located in a different jurisdiction than yours or ours. Therefore, if you choose to proceed with a transaction involving the services of a third-party provider, your information may then become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) where that provider or its facilities are located.
For example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, your personal information used to complete that transaction may be subject to U.S. legislation, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

ARTICLE 6 – SECURITY
To protect your personal data, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure it is not lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed inappropriately.
If you provide your credit card information, it will be encrypted using SSL security technology and stored with AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted security measures.
