This policy explains what personal data we collect when you visit or shop at global.magpie-and-tiger.com, why we collect it, and what rights you have over it.
2. What Personal Data We Collect
- Contact & account info: name, email address, phone number, shipping/billing address
- Order info: items purchased, order history, payment confirmation (we do not store full card numbers — payments are processed by Shopify Payments and PayPal; additional payment methods may be added in the future)
- Communications: messages sent via the Contact form, customer service emails
- Browsing data: pages viewed, device/browser type, IP address, via cookies and similar technologies
- Marketing preferences: newsletter sign-up status, email engagement, if you opt in
3. How We Collect It
Directly from you (checkout, account creation, the Contact form, newsletter sign-up), and automatically via cookies and analytics tools when you browse the site.
4. Why We Use It
To process and fulfill orders, respond to inquiries, send marketing emails (only if you've opted in), improve the site and prevent fraud, and comply with tax, customs, and other legal obligations.
5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
We use cookies for core store functionality (cart, checkout, login) and Shopify's own built-in storefront analytics. At this time, we do not use any third-party marketing or analytics cookies beyond Shopify's built-in platform analytics. If we add tools such as Google Analytics or Meta Pixel in the future, we will update this policy accordingly.
6. Who We Share Data With
- Shopify Inc. — our e-commerce platform provider, processes data to operate the store and checkout
- Payment processors — Shopify Payments, PayPal
- Shipping carrier — Korea Post International (EMS) for international fulfillment
- STOQ (Artos Software) — processes your email and/or phone number if you sign up for a back-in-stock or preorder notification
We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
7. International Data Transfers
We are based in South Korea and ship internationally. If you are located outside Korea, your data will be transferred to and processed in Korea and other countries where our service providers (e.g., Shopify) operate.
8. Data Retention
We keep your personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Order and payment records are retained for 5 years, and consumer complaint/dispute records for 3 years, in line with Korean e-commerce law. Website visit logs are retained for 3 months. All other personal data (such as account or marketing information) is deleted promptly once its purpose has been fulfilled — for example, when you unsubscribe from marketing emails or close your account.
9. Your Rights
You may have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of the personal data we hold about you, and to withdraw marketing consent at any time (unsubscribe link in every email). EU/UK visitors may object to or restrict certain processing and lodge a complaint with their local data protection authority. California visitors may request disclosure of data collected under CCPA (we do not sell data). To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@maginot.kr.
10. Children's Privacy
Our store is not directed at children under 14, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them.
11. Security
We use industry-standard measures (including those provided by Shopify's infrastructure) to protect your data. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected with an updated "Last updated" date.
