Certain information is necessary for us to process and fulfil a purchase contract.

Personal data may be processed for purposes including:

Operating our online store; processing orders; administering payments; arranging delivery; communicating about transactions; providing customer service; handling returns and refunds; maintaining customer accounts; preventing fraud; protecting website security; complying with legal obligations; maintaining accounting and transaction records; improving services; and conducting marketing where legally permitted.

5. Legal Bases Under GDPR

Where GDPR applies, processing is carried out on an appropriate legal basis.

Processing may be necessary to perform a contract or take steps requested by the customer before entering into a contract.

Processing may also be required to comply with legal obligations, including accounting, taxation, consumer-protection, and regulatory requirements.

We may rely on legitimate interests where appropriate, such as fraud prevention, cybersecurity, customer service, business administration, service improvement, and the establishment or defence of legal claims.

Where consent is legally required, including for certain marketing communications or non-essential tracking technologies, processing will be based on consent.

Consent may be withdrawn at any time for future processing.

6. Shopify

Our ecommerce store is powered by Shopify.

Shopify provides technology supporting hosting, checkout, order management, customer accounts, transaction processing, security, and other ecommerce functionality.

Shopify and other providers may process personal data to provide these services.

7. Payment Processing

Payments may be processed by Shopify Payments or other payment providers available through checkout.

Payment providers may receive information necessary to authorise transactions, prevent fraud, process refunds, and comply with financial or regulatory obligations.

We do not intentionally request customers to send complete card numbers or security codes through ordinary customer-service email.

Warehouses, fulfilment providers, carriers, logistics providers, and other delivery partners.

Such information may include a customer's name, address, telephone number, email address, order number, and shipment information.

9. Customer Service

When you contact us, we may process the information contained in your communication.

This may include:

Such information may be retained where necessary for customer support, legal compliance, fraud prevention, and dispute resolution.

10. Marketing Communications

Where permitted by law, we may send information about products, promotions, or services.

Where prior consent is legally required, marketing communications will only be sent after appropriate consent has been obtained.

You may unsubscribe using an available unsubscribe function or contact:

info@signoraware.shop

Opting out of marketing does not prevent necessary transactional communications relating to an existing order.

11. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and comparable technologies.

Some technologies are necessary for functions such as:

Shopping carts, checkout, customer authentication, security, fraud prevention, and website operation.

Where consent is legally required, non-essential technologies will be used only after appropriate consent.

Where our website provides a privacy or cookie preference interface, customers may use it to manage applicable choices.

Users may also manage cookies through their browser settings.

Blocking necessary cookies may affect checkout, shopping-cart, account, authentication, or other website functionality.

13. Service Providers

We may use external service providers to support:

Ecommerce infrastructure, hosting, payments, logistics, fulfilment, communications, customer support, security, fraud detection, analytics, and other legitimate business operations.

Personal information will only be disclosed where an appropriate lawful basis exists.

14. Legal Disclosures

We may disclose personal data where required by:

Applicable law, legal process, court orders, regulatory requirements, or lawful governmental requests.

Personal information may also be processed where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims or investigate suspected fraud or security incidents.

15. International Data Transfers

Some service providers may process personal data outside Germany or the European Economic Area.

Where GDPR restrictions apply to international transfers, appropriate safeguards will be used, such as adequacy decisions, approved Standard Contractual Clauses, or another legally recognised transfer mechanism.

16. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with applicable legal obligations.

Relevant retention considerations may include:

Tax, accounting, contractual, consumer-protection, fraud-prevention, recordkeeping, and dispute-resolution requirements.

When information is no longer required, it may be deleted or anonymised in accordance with applicable law.

17. Data Security

We maintain reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal data against:

Unauthorised access, unlawful disclosure, accidental destruction, loss, alteration, or misuse.

No internet-based system can guarantee absolute security.

Customers should protect their passwords and notify us if they believe their account has been compromised.

• Access personal data;
• Correct inaccurate information;
• Request deletion;
• Restrict processing;
• Receive qualifying data in a portable format;
