Privacy Policy
SECTION 1 - HOW WE HANDLE YOUR INFORMATION
When you make a purchase from our online store, as part of the transaction process, we gather personal details you provide such as your name, postal address, and email address. While browsing our store, we also automatically receive your computer's internet protocol (IP) address, which helps us gain insights about your browser type and operating system. Email communications (where applicable): With your consent, we may periodically send you emails regarding our store, product launches, and important updates.
SECTION 2 - YOUR CONSENT
How do we obtain your consent?
When you supply personal information to complete a transaction, verify payment details, place an order, arrange shipping, or process a return, we understand this as your implicit consent for us to collect and use this information exclusively for that specific purpose. Should we require your information for secondary purposes, such as marketing activities, we will either directly request your explicit consent or provide an option for you to decline.
How can you withdraw consent?
If you initially opt-in but later change your mind, you can withdraw your consent for us to contact you or continue collecting, using, or disclosing your information at any time by sending an email to info@phosuadetailed.com
SECTION 3 - INFORMATION DISCLOSURE
We may disclose your personal information if legally required to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.
SECTION 4 - E-COMMERCE PLATFORM
Our online store operates on the Shopify Inc. platform. They provide the e-commerce infrastructure that enables us to sell our products and services to you. Your data is stored through Shopify's data storage systems, databases, and general application framework. They maintain your information on secure servers protected by firewalls.
Payment Processing:
When you select a direct payment gateway to finalize your purchase, Shopify securely stores your credit card information. This data is encrypted according to Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) protocols. Your purchase transaction data is retained only for the duration necessary to complete your transaction, after which it is deleted. All direct payment gateways adhere to PCI-DSS standards, which are managed by the PCI Security Standards Council—a collaborative effort between payment card brands including Visa, MasterCard, Mobile Money, American Express, and Discover. These PCI-DSS requirements ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers. For further understanding, you may wish to review Shopify's Terms of Service (https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms) or their Privacy Statement (https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy).
SECTION 5 - THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS
Generally, third-party providers we utilize will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to deliver the services they provide to us. However, certain service providers, particularly payment gateways and transaction processors, maintain their own privacy policies regarding the information we must provide for your purchase transactions. We recommend reviewing these providers' privacy policies to understand how they will handle your personal information. It's important to note that some providers may operate in jurisdictions different from yours or ours. If you proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) where that provider or its facilities are located. For example, if you're located in Ghana and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway in the United States, your personal information used in that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act. Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party site or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Service.

SECTION 6 - DATA SECURITY
To safeguard your personal information, we implement reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to prevent inappropriate loss, misuse, access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. When you provide credit card information, this data is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with AES-256 encryption. While no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.
