Store and Payment Process
Our store is hosted on WooCommerce. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.
Your data is stored through WooCommerce’s data storage, databases and the general Woo Commerce application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.
Payment Process
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then WooCommerce temporary stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.
All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.
For more insight, you may also want to read WooCommerce’s Terms and Conditions or Privacy Statement.
WooCommerce sends payment information to Square Inc. to process your payment to our company. Square Inc. keeps only the transaction data (date, payment method including last 4 digits of card, card holder name, batch number, amount paid, and fee.) This information is stored by Square Inc. on a secure server behind a firewall like all processing companies.

Where we send your data
Visitor comments and contact forms may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
