  • Certain customer profile information
  • Eligible support or communication records

Deletion rights are subject to applicable law and lawful retention requirements.

Before processing a deletion or account request, we may take reasonable steps to verify your identity.

This helps prevent unauthorized persons from:

  • Deleting another customer’s account
  • Accessing private information
  • Changing account details without permission

We may request information reasonably necessary to confirm your identity or order history.

Closing an account does not always mean that every record can be deleted immediately.

We may retain information where reasonably necessary for:

  • Completed order records
  • Payment reconciliation

  • Fraud prevention
  • Returns and refunds
  • Legal or regulatory requirements
  • Dispute resolution
  • Establishing or defending legal claims

These records may include:

  • Order number
  • Purchase details
  • Payment status
  • Refund information
  • Delivery records
  • Relevant customer communications

Such information will not be retained longer than reasonably necessary for the applicable purpose.

6. Marketing Data

We may retain limited suppression information where necessary to ensure that your marketing opt-out preference is respected.

Where appropriate and legally required, relevant deletion or restriction requests may be passed to service providers that process data on our behalf.

Independent third parties may also be subject to their own legal retention obligations.

A request may be refused, delayed, or limited where permitted by applicable law, including where:

  • Identity cannot reasonably be verified
  • Information must be retained by law
  • The request is fraudulent or abusive
  • Records are required for an ongoing dispute
