Shopify maintains its own privacy policies describing how it processes personal data.
Because Shopify operates internationally, personal data may be processed in countries outside Romania and outside the European Economic Area in accordance with applicable data-protection safeguards.

We require processors acting on our behalf to process personal data in accordance with applicable contractual and data-protection requirements.
We do not disclose personal data to third parties simply for unrelated purposes without an appropriate lawful basis.
17. SALE OR SHARING OF PERSONAL DATA
Bonechoir does not sell personal data for money.
Certain privacy laws may define terms such as "sale", "sharing", or "targeted advertising" more broadly than an exchange of personal data for money.
For example, the use of advertising technologies may, in some jurisdictions, constitute "sharing" or processing for targeted advertising even where no monetary payment is received in exchange for personal data.
Where applicable, we provide required consent, opt-out, or privacy-control mechanisms.
You may also manage relevant advertising and cookie choices through the privacy settings available on the Website.
18. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
Some of our service providers operate internationally.
As a result, personal data may be transferred to or processed in countries outside Romania or outside the European Economic Area ("EEA").
These countries may have privacy laws that differ from those in your home country.
Where personal data subject to the GDPR is transferred outside the EEA, we seek to ensure that appropriate safeguards are used as required by applicable law.
These safeguards may include:
- European Commission adequacy decisions;
- Standard Contractual Clauses;
- approved Binding Corporate Rules;
- legally recognized transfer frameworks; or
- other lawful transfer mechanisms.
For example, Shopify uses mechanisms including Binding Corporate Rules and Standard Contractual Clauses for certain international transfers.
Printful also states that it uses appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable, for international transfers.
19. HOW LONG WE KEEP PERSONAL DATA
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and to meet applicable legal, regulatory, accounting, tax, security, and dispute-resolution requirements.
Retention periods depend on the type of information and why it is processed.
For example:
Order and transaction information
May be retained for the period necessary to comply with:
- Romanian accounting requirements;

- we determine that continued retention is no longer appropriate.
We may retain limited suppression information after an unsubscribe to ensure that your marketing preference continues to be respected.
Analytics information
Retention depends on the settings and policies of the relevant analytics services.
Where information is no longer required, we may delete or anonymize it.
