- Shop, cart, order, payment, shipping and customer service: Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.

5. Newsletter, waitlist and referrals
When you sign up, we store your email address, language, timestamp, source, preferred flavour, referral code and proof of consent. We use this data to send launch information, discounts, availability and relevant product updates. You can unsubscribe at any time through the unsubscribe link or by email.
6. Cookies, analytics and advertising
Essential cookies provide the shop, cart, security, consent management and language settings. Optional analytics and marketing cookies are used only with consent. You can withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future.
7. Recipients and service providers
We use service providers for hosting, Shopify storefront operations, payment processing, shipping, email delivery, analytics, consent management, customer support, accounting and fraud prevention. These providers process data under data processing agreements or their own statutory responsibility. Payment data is generally processed directly by the relevant payment provider.
8. International transfers
Some providers may process data outside the EU/EEA, in particular in the United States, Canada or the United Kingdom. Where required, we use adequacy decisions, EU Standard Contractual Clauses, transfer impact assessments and additional safeguards.
9. Retention
We retain personal data only as long as needed for the relevant purposes. Order and accounting records are typically retained for up to ten years. Support data is typically retained for up to three years after the request is closed. Newsletter and waitlist data is retained until withdrawal or until it is no longer needed for the launch purpose. Technical logs are usually deleted after a short period unless security checks require longer retention.
10. Your rights
You have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection to processing based on legitimate interests and withdrawal of consent. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.
11. Required data
For orders, we need the data required for contract performance, payment, delivery and statutory documentation. Without this data we cannot fulfil an order. Newsletter and analytics data are voluntary.
12. Automated decisions
We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you. Fraud and risk checks may use automated signals, but relevant effects are reviewed.
