Your data is stored through Shopify's data storage, databases, and the general Shopify application, all of which are secured by a firewall and stored on a secure server.
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Shopify stores your credit card data.

Your purchase transaction data is retained only as long as necessary to complete the transaction, after which it is deleted. Direct payment gateways used by our store comply with the PCI-DSS standards, which are jointly established by brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we must provide to them for transaction-related purposes. We recommend that you review their privacy policies to understand how these providers handle your personal information.
Please note that some providers may be located in or have facilities located in different jurisdictions than you or us. Therefore, if you choose to proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. For example, if you are in Canada 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 store's website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by our Privacy Policy or our website's Terms of Service.
