Privacy Policy

Date: November 11, 2026

1. Who we are

Parrisology.com is committed to guarding your data and privacy. Our website address is: https://parrisology.com. If you have questions about this policy or your personal data, you can reach us at support@parrisology.com.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information to operate our website, process your orders, and improve your experience.

  • Orders and Purchases: When you purchase from us, we collect your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, phone number, and order details. We do not store your full credit card details on our servers; payments are handled directly by our payment processors.
  • Accounts: If you register for an account on our website, we store the personal information you provide in your user profile.
  • Comments: When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and the browser user agent string to help detect spam. An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it (see Automattic’s Privacy Policy). Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.
  • Email Marketing: If you opt in to our mailing list or make a purchase, we collect your email address and name to send you order updates, newsletters, or promotions.
  • Media: If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from images on the site.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies to keep our site running smoothly, remember your preferences, and keep items in your shopping cart.

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience. These last for one year.
  • Login and Accounts: Visiting our login page sets a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies; it contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we set cookies to save your login info (lasting two days, or two weeks if you select “Remember Me”) and screen display choices (lasting one year). Logging out removes login cookies.
  • Publishing: If you edit or publish an article, a cookie indicating the post ID is saved in your browser for one day. It contains no personal data.
  • Shopping Cart: WooCommerce uses cookies to track cart contents and session data while you browse our store.

You can set your browser to refuse or delete cookies at any time, though some site features (like the shopping cart) may not work properly without them.

4. Embedded Content From Other Websites

Articles and pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). Embedded content behaves in the exact same way as if you visited the other website directly. Those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.

5. Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell your personal data. We share customer data strictly with trusted third-party partners that help us run our business:

  • E-Commerce & Website Platform: WordPress and WooCommerce (to power our website and online store).
  • Payment Processors: Stripe and PayPal (to securely process your payments).
  • Email & Communications: Brevo (to send transactional emails, order updates, and marketing newsletters).
  • Hosting, Security & Backups: DigitalOcean (website hosting), Cloudflare (content delivery and security), Wordfence (firewall and malware protection), and Backblaze (secure off-site backups).
  • Spam Detection: Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
  • Password Resets: If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security.

6. How We Protect Your Data

We take reasonable technical and administrative measures to protect your personal information. Our site uses SSL encryption, firewall monitoring via Wordfence, and DDoS protection via Cloudflare to safeguard your data against unauthorized access.

7. How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and automatically approve follow-up comments.
  • User Accounts: Profile information is stored for as long as your account remains active. You can view, edit, or delete your personal information at any time (except your username). Website administrators can also see and edit this information.
  • Order Records: We retain purchase and transaction records as required for tax, accounting, and legal compliance.
  • Backups: Website and transaction backups stored via Backblaze are retained for a maximum of 45 days before being overwritten.

8. Your Rights Over Your Data

Depending on where you live (including residents of the UK, European Union, and certain U.S. states), you have specific rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access & Portability: You can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction & Deletion: You can ask us to correct inaccurate data or erase your personal data. This excludes data we are legally required to keep for administrative, tax, legal, or security purposes.
  • Opt-Out of Marketing: You can unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any Brevo email we send you.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@parrisology.com.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
