This policy explains how Goldsun TJ handles personal information in connection with our online store, purchases of physical products, customer accounts, and communications with us. It applies to information processed through our website and related order and support activities. It does not cover the independent privacy practices of third-party websites or services you may choose to use.

The information we process depends on how you interact with our store and which services you use. It may include:
- Contact details: Your name, email address, telephone number, and billing or delivery address, as needed to respond to inquiries or fulfill orders.
- Order and delivery information: Products purchased, order details, delivery instructions, shipping status, and information relating to returns, refunds, or warranty requests.
- Account information: If you create an account, your login credentials, saved details, and account activity.
- Payment-related information: Information needed to arrange payment, such as the selected payment method, transaction reference, and payment status. The payment information handled by us or a payment provider depends on the checkout service used.
- Communications: Messages, requests, and other information you provide when contacting us. Please avoid including sensitive personal information unless it is necessary for your request.
- Device and technical information: Depending on the services and settings in use, the website may process information such as an IP address, browser type, device details, pages visited, and technical logs.
Some information is necessary to process a purchase, deliver an order, or respond to a request. If you do not provide that information, we may be unable to complete the relevant service.

Where applicable law requires a legal basis for processing, the relevant basis may include performing a contract with you, complying with legal obligations, pursuing legitimate interests where permitted and balanced against your rights, or obtaining your consent where required.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
The website may use cookies and similar technologies to support shopping features, remember preferences, maintain sessions, and help protect the site. Depending on the services enabled and your choices, these technologies may also help us understand website use and improve performance.
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through the choices provided on the website. Where required by applicable law, nonessential technologies are subject to your consent. Blocking certain cookies may affect features such as the shopping cart, checkout, or account sign-in. Browser settings generally apply only to the browser and device on which you make them.
When Information May Be Shared
We may share relevant information with third parties where reasonably necessary to provide services or meet applicable obligations. Depending on the services used, these recipients may include:
- Payment service providers: To process payments, refunds, and related transaction checks.

- Analytics providers: Where such services are enabled and permitted by applicable law and your choices, to help understand website use and performance.
- Professional advisers or public authorities: Where necessary to obtain advice, comply with legal requirements, protect rights and safety, or address disputes.
We seek to limit disclosures to information relevant to the purpose. Some providers may process information under their own privacy policies, particularly when you interact directly with their services.
International Processing
Depending on the providers involved in operating the store or fulfilling an order, your information may be processed in a country other than the one where you live. Where applicable law requires safeguards for an international transfer, we will use the safeguards required for that transfer.
How Long Information Is Kept
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including fulfilling orders, providing support, maintaining required records, resolving disputes, and meeting applicable legal obligations. Retention periods depend on the type of information, the nature of our relationship with you, and relevant requirements. Information is deleted or anonymized when it is no longer needed, subject to applicable retention obligations.

Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have the right to:
- Request access to the personal information held about you.
- Ask for inaccurate or incomplete information to be corrected.
- Request deletion of your personal information.
- Request that certain processing be restricted or object to certain processing.
- Receive certain information in a portable format, where applicable.
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
- Raise a concern with the relevant data protection authority.
These rights are subject to applicable conditions and exceptions. For example, some information may need to be retained to meet legal obligations or resolve a dispute. To make a request, please use the contact link below. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request and will respond within the period required by applicable law.
Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. The measures appropriate to particular information depend on its nature and the risks involved. No website, storage system, or method of transmission can be guaranteed completely secure. If you have an account, keep your login details confidential and notify us if you suspect unauthorized use.
Third-Party Websites and Services
Our website may contain links to external websites or direct you to third-party services, such as a payment service during checkout. Their handling of information is governed by their own policies. Please review those policies before providing personal information directly to them.
