1. ABOUT THIS PRIVACY POLICY

House of Ellory operates this website and online store, including the information, content, features, tools, products, and services made available through it (collectively, the “Services”).

House of Ellory respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information thoughtfully, transparently, and in accordance with applicable law.

7. ADVERTISING & YOUR PRIVACY CHOICES

House of Ellory may use advertising and analytics technologies to understand how customers interact with our Services and, where permitted, to provide advertising that may be more relevant to customer interests.

Depending upon where you reside, certain disclosures of personal information for cross-context behavioral or targeted advertising may be legally characterized as “selling,” “sharing,” or processing for “targeted advertising,” even when House of Ellory does not receive money in exchange for the information.

Where applicable, you may have the right to opt out of these activities.

You may exercise available opt-out rights through the Your Privacy Choices link provided on our website.

Where required by applicable law, House of Ellory and/or Shopify may also recognize supported browser-based opt-out preference signals, including Global Privacy Control.

Opting out of targeted advertising does not necessarily mean that you will stop seeing advertisements. You may continue to receive advertisements that are not personalized based upon your activity across businesses or websites.


8. RELATIONSHIP WITH SHOPIFY

The House of Ellory online store is hosted and powered by Shopify.

Shopify collects and processes certain personal information relating to your access to and use of the Services in order to provide, support, secure, personalize, and improve Shopify-powered commerce services.

Information submitted through our Services may therefore be transmitted to and processed by Shopify and other service providers, which may operate in countries other than the country in which you reside.

House of Ellory may also use Shopify features that rely upon information concerning interactions with our store and, in certain circumstances, interactions with other merchants using Shopify.

For certain processing activities carried out by Shopify for its own purposes, Shopify may be independently responsible for responding to requests concerning that processing.

You may learn more through Shopify's Consumer Privacy Policy and may exercise certain Shopify-related privacy rights through the Shopify Privacy Portal.


9. DATA RETENTION

House of Ellory retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed, including to:

  • maintain your account;
  • provide Services;
  • complete transactions;
  • maintain appropriate business and financial records;
  • comply with tax, accounting, regulatory, and other legal obligations;
  • resolve disputes;
  • prevent fraud;
  • enforce agreements; and
  • establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

Retention periods vary depending upon the nature of the information, the purpose for which it is processed, applicable legal requirements, and legitimate business needs.

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


10. SECURITY

House of Ellory and its service providers use administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, destruction, or loss.

However, no system, website, electronic transmission, or storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Customers are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials and should not share passwords or other authentication information with others.

If you believe your account or interaction with House of Ellory may have been compromised, please contact us promptly.


11. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

The Services are intended for a general audience and are not directed toward children.

For purposes of California law, certain uses of advertising technologies may constitute “sharing” even where personal information is not exchanged for money.

House of Ellory's categories of information collected and the business purposes for which information is used are described in Sections 2 and 4 of this Privacy Policy. Categories of recipients are described in Section 6.

House of Ellory does not knowingly sell or share personal information of individuals under 16 years of age where prohibited by applicable law.

14. EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA & UNITED KINGDOM

If you reside in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom (UK), applicable data-protection law may provide additional rights concerning your personal data.

  • receive certain personal data in a portable format;
  • withdraw consent where consent is the legal basis for processing; and
  • exercise applicable rights concerning certain automated decision-making and profiling.

These rights are subject to the conditions, limitations, and exemptions provided by applicable law.

Where we rely upon consent, withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing undertaken before consent was withdrawn.

Where applicable, processing may be undertaken because it is necessary to perform a contract with you, comply with a legal obligation, pursue legitimate interests that are not overridden by your rights and interests, or because you have provided consent.

Complaints

We encourage you to contact House of Ellory first if you have concerns about how we process your personal information.

You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the data-protection supervisory authority responsible for your jurisdiction. EEA residents may generally complain to the competent supervisory authority in the relevant Member State, and UK residents may have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.


15. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS & INTERNATIONAL PRIVACY RIGHTS

House of Ellory serves customers internationally. As a result, personal information may be transferred to, stored in, accessed from, or processed in countries other than the country in which you reside.

Those countries may have privacy and data-protection laws that differ from the laws in your jurisdiction.

Where applicable law restricts international transfers of personal information, House of Ellory and/or the relevant service providers will use recognized mechanisms intended to provide appropriate protection for those transfers.

Depending upon the applicable jurisdiction, these mechanisms may include:

  • an adequacy decision or adequacy regulation;
  • approved standard contractual clauses;
  • the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses;
  • applicable UK international data-transfer mechanisms;
  • other approved contractual safeguards; or
  • another lawful transfer mechanism recognized under applicable data-protection law.

International transfer requirements can include not only physically sending data abroad but, in some circumstances, allowing an independent organization in another country to access it remotely.

International Privacy Rights

If you reside outside the United States, EEA, or UK, you may have additional privacy rights under the laws of your country, province, state, territory, or other jurisdiction.

Depending upon applicable law, these rights may include rights concerning:

  • access to personal information;
  • correction;
  • deletion;
  • withdrawal of consent;
  • restriction or objection to processing;
  • data portability;
  • direct marketing;
  • targeted or behavioral advertising;
  • automated decision-making;
  • international transfers;
  • complaints to a privacy or data-protection regulator; and
  • other rights established by applicable law.

House of Ellory will honor privacy rights that apply to our processing of your personal information in accordance with applicable law.

Because privacy rights differ by jurisdiction, the availability and scope of a particular right may depend upon where you reside, the nature of our relationship with you, and whether the applicable law applies to House of Ellory.

Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to limit a privacy or data-protection right that cannot lawfully be limited.


16. THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES & LINKS

Our Services may contain links to websites, platforms, or services operated by third parties.

If you follow a link to a third-party service, its privacy practices are governed by its own policies rather than this Privacy Policy.
