Privacy Policy

Christos.Fashion ("Christos.Fashion," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit christos.fashion or place an order, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

When you browse our site, sign up for updates, or place an order, we may collect:

Contact & order information — name, email address, shipping address, and order details you provide at checkout.
Payment information — payments are processed directly by Stripe. We do not collect or store your full card number, CVC, or other card details on our servers.
Account & browsing data — items you add to your cart (stored locally in your browser), pages you visit, and general device/browser information (such as IP address and browser type) collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies.
Communications — messages you send us through our contact form or email, and your email address if you subscribe to our newsletter.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

Process and fulfill your orders, including sending them to our print-on-demand partner for production and shipping.
Send order confirmations, shipping updates, and respond to customer service requests.
Send marketing emails and updates about new drops — only if you opt in, and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Understand how visitors use our site, measure the performance of our advertising, and improve the shopping experience.
Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security issues.

Third Parties We Work With

We share the minimum information necessary with trusted service providers who help us run the store:

Stripe — processes all payments on our behalf. Stripe's use of your information is governed by the Stripe Privacy Policy.
Printify — our print-on-demand fulfillment partner. We share your name and shipping address with Printify solely to produce and ship your order.
Netlify — hosts our website and processes newsletter/contact form submissions.
Google (Analytics & Ads) — we use Google tools to measure site traffic and the performance of our advertising campaigns, including conversion tracking and, where enabled, remarketing. Google may set cookies or similar identifiers on your device for these purposes. You can learn more about how Google uses this data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites, and you can opt out of personalized advertising at adssettings.google.com.
Meta (Facebook & Instagram) — if you accept analytics and advertising cookies, we load the Meta Pixel, which places identifiers on your device and reports the pages you view and actions you take on this site (such as viewing a product, adding to cart, starting checkout, and completing a purchase) so we can measure our Facebook and Instagram advertising and show relevant ads. Separately, when an order is completed we send Meta a server-side record of that purchase through their Conversions API. That record includes the order total, the items purchased, and your contact and address details — but the contact details are irreversibly hashed (SHA-256) on our server before they are transmitted, so Meta receives a scrambled value it can only use to check against accounts it already has, never a readable email address or phone number. We only send this server-side record if you accepted advertising cookies; if you declined, no purchase record is sent to Meta. You can review and adjust how Meta uses your data at facebook.com/adpreferences/ad_settings.

We do not sell or rent your personal information for money. Some privacy laws use a broader definition of “sale” or “sharing” that can cover advertising measurement of the kind described above. Where those definitions apply, declining on our cookie preference bar is how you opt out: no Google or Meta advertising technology is loaded, and no purchase record is sent to Meta.

Cookies & Local Storage

We use essential cookies/local storage to keep items in your cart while you shop. These are always active because the cart cannot work without them.

Analytics and advertising cookies — used by Google Analytics, Google Ads, and the Meta Pixel — are not loaded until you choose “Accept” on the preference bar. If you choose “Decline”, none of those scripts are requested and no advertising identifiers are set. Your choice is stored on your own device, and you can change it at any time using the button below. You can also disable cookies entirely in your browser settings, though some parts of the site — like the shopping cart — may not work correctly without them.

Change my analytics & advertising choice Clears your saved preference and reloads this page so you can choose again.

Data Retention

We keep order information for as long as needed to fulfill orders, handle returns or disputes, and comply with our legal and tax obligations. Newsletter subscriber emails are kept until you unsubscribe.

Your Rights & Choices

You can ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, and you can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in any email or by contacting us directly. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the CCPA (California) or GDPR (EU/UK) — email us and we'll do our best to help.

Children's Privacy

Christos.Fashion is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Security

All checkout traffic is encrypted over SSL/TLS. We never see or store your card details — those are handled entirely by Stripe.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
