Unsubscribing from marketing communications will not prevent us from sending transactional or service-related communications, such as order confirmations, shipping notifications, refund information, or responses to customer service requests.

4. Shopify

Our online store is hosted on Shopify.

Shopify provides the ecommerce technology that enables us to operate our storefront, checkout, order management, customer accounts, and related ecommerce services.

When you visit or make a purchase through our store, Shopify may collect and process personal information in connection with providing these services to AURESTAR and, depending on the Shopify services and features being used, for other purposes described in Shopify's privacy documentation.

Information submitted through our store may therefore be processed by Shopify and its service providers in countries other than the country in which you reside.

For additional information about Shopify's processing of consumer personal information, please review the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy.

Their handling of personal information may also be governed by their own privacy policies and terms.

We do not intentionally store complete payment card numbers on systems directly controlled by AURESTAR.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website and service providers may use cookies, pixels, local storage, tags, and similar technologies.

These technologies may be used to:

  • improve security
  • prevent fraud
  • understand how visitors use our website
  • measure website performance
  • measure marketing performance
  • provide or measure advertising where applicable

Some cookies and technologies are necessary for our website to function. Others may be used for analytics, personalization, or advertising depending on our current website configuration and your applicable privacy choices.

Where required by applicable law, we provide appropriate controls relating to non-essential cookies or similar technologies.

8. Analytics, Advertising, and Data Sharing

We may use analytics technologies to understand how visitors interact with our website and to improve store performance and customer experience.

We may also use advertising and marketing technologies where enabled.

AURESTAR does not sell personal information for monetary payment.

However, certain disclosures of personal information to analytics, advertising, or technology partners may be considered a “sale,” “sharing,” or use for “targeted advertising” under the privacy laws of certain U.S. states, even when no money is exchanged.

Where applicable law provides such rights, eligible users may request to opt out of covered sale, sharing, or targeted advertising activities through privacy controls made available on our website or by contacting us.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to:

  • complete and document transactions
  • provide customer service
  • manage returns and refunds
  • comply with tax, accounting, legal, and regulatory requirements
  • resolve disputes
  • prevent fraud and abuse
  • enforce our agreements and policies

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the purpose for which it is processed, and applicable legal requirements.

When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of it in accordance with applicable law and our operational requirements.

10. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, alteration, or disclosure.

We also rely on service providers that maintain their own security measures.

However, no Internet transmission, electronic storage system, or security measure can provide absolute security.

11. Your Privacy Rights and Choices

Depending on where you reside and applicable law, you may have rights relating to your personal information, which may include the right to:

Our website and products are not directed to children under the age of 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can review the matter and take appropriate action.

13. International Data Transfers

AUREN STAR LIMITED is incorporated in Hong Kong, and AURESTAR works with service providers and fulfillment, ecommerce, payment, technology, logistics, and other business partners that may operate in different countries or regions.

As a result, personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in jurisdictions outside your state or country of residence, including jurisdictions whose privacy laws may differ from those in your location.

Where required by applicable law, we take reasonable steps intended to ensure that international transfers of personal information are handled using appropriate safeguards.

14. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to websites, applications, or services operated by third parties.
