Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

We may collect information you provide directly, information generated through your use of the website, and information needed to process purchases and provide customer support. This may include your name, email address, phone number, billing address, shipping address, order details, payment status, support messages, IP address, browser information, device information, cookie identifiers, and analytics or advertising data where those tools are enabled.

How We Use Personal Information

  • To process payments, fulfill orders, arrange shipping, and provide tracking updates.
  • To respond to customer support questions, returns, refunds, product sizing, and order issues.
  • To operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the website and checkout experience.
  • To send transactional emails and, where you opt in or where allowed by law, marketing communications.
  • To help detect fraud, prevent misuse, comply with legal obligations, and enforce store policies.

Payment Information

Paws in Awe does not store full payment card details. Payments are processed by Shopify-supported payment providers and other enabled checkout services. Available payment methods are shown at checkout.

Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to keep the store working, remember preferences, understand website performance, support checkout, prevent fraud, and measure marketing performance where enabled.

Some privacy laws may define certain advertising, analytics, cookie-based measurement, or data-sharing activities as a “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising,” even when personal information is not sold for money as a standalone business.

How We Share Information

We may share personal information with service providers and partners that help us operate the store and serve customers, including Shopify, payment providers, shipping carriers, fulfillment partners, fraud-prevention tools, analytics services, marketing tools, customer support tools, and professional advisers where needed.

We do not sell customer personal information as a standalone business. Where applicable law treats certain advertising, analytics, or cookie-based data use as a sale or sharing of personal information, you may have the choices described below.

Your Privacy Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the right to request access to personal information, ask us to correct or delete certain information, opt out of certain marketing communications, or ask about privacy rights available under applicable law.

You may also ask to opt out of activities that may be considered a sale, sharing, or targeted advertising under certain U.S. state privacy laws. To submit a privacy request, email support@pawsinawe.com with your name, email address, request type, and enough information for us to understand and process your request.

We may need to verify your identity or request details before taking action. Opting out of certain sale, sharing, or targeted advertising activities does not prevent you from browsing products, using the website, or placing orders.

Global Privacy Control

If you visit our website with a Global Privacy Control opt-out preference signal enabled, we will treat that signal as a request to opt out of activities that may be considered a sale, sharing, or targeted advertising where required by applicable privacy law.

Marketing Communications

If you subscribe to marketing emails or messages, you may unsubscribe using the instructions in the message or by contacting us. Transactional messages related to orders, shipping, returns, refunds, account activity, or support may still be sent when needed.

Retention

We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide services, keep business records, comply with legal obligations, prevent fraud, resolve disputes, and support store operations. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it is used.

Minors

The website is not intended for individuals under the age of 18. We do not intentionally collect personal information from children.

Third-Party Links and Services

Our website may include links, embedded tools, or services from third parties. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect operational, legal, or regulatory changes. The updated version will be posted on this page.
