THIRD PARTY SERVICES
We partner with three third-party services to collect information that you manually provide by making a purchase or signing up for our mailing list. When making a purchase on kindseas.ca, Squarespace utilizes Stripe, a third-party payment processor that securely processes all purchases so that we never learn or have access to your credit card information. When signing up for our mailing list, your name and email are transferred to MailChimp, a third-party email marketing platform.
Squarespace, Stripe, and MailChimp transfer any inquiries made through the contact form, purchase notifications, and marketing campaign activity to us through Google servers to our gmail account. This may include your name, email address, and shipping address; this information is not saved or stored for longer than necessary for the purpose it is required. Payment information is always handled by a secure payment gateway, Stripe, and never disclosed to us in any form.
