Privacy policy

Last Updated: June 2026

At Guilty Pleasers, we value your trust and are fully committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website and purchase from our store.

1. Information We Collect

When you interact with our store, we collect certain personal and technical information to process your orders and improve your shopping experience.

  • Personal Information: When you make a purchase, we collect data you explicitly provide, including your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, and phone number.

  • Device and Browsing Information: As you browse our store, we automatically receive your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, operating system, and device identifiers to help optimize our store performance.

  • Email Marketing: Only with your explicit permission, we may send you occasional marketing emails regarding new collections, product updates, and special offers. You can opt out at any time.

2. Consent & How to Withdraw

We obtain your consent through clear, user-initiated actions.

  • Implied Consent: When you provide personal details to complete a financial transaction, verify a payment method, place an order, or arrange for a delivery/return, we imply that you consent to our collecting and using it for that specific reason only.

  • Expressed Consent: For secondary purposes (like marketing subscriptions), we will always ask you directly for your explicit consent or provide an immediate option to decline.

  • Withdrawing Consent: If you change your mind after opting in, you can completely withdraw your consent for the continued collection or use of your data at any time. Simply contact our support team at support@guiltypleasers.com.

3. Secure E-Commerce & Payment Processing

Our store is built and hosted on Shopify Inc., providing us with a highly secure online e-commerce platform.

Data Storage & Infrastructure

Your data is securely stored behind industry-standard firewalls through Shopify’s encrypted data storage systems and databases.

Payment Safety & Encryption

If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your transaction, your credit card data is safely encrypted using the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS).

  • Your transaction data is only stored as long as necessary to complete your purchase, after which it is automatically deleted.

  • All direct payment options strictly adhere to PCI-DSS requirements managed by the PCI Security Standards Council (a joint initiative of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover).

4. Third-Party Services & Links

We only share information with third-party providers to the extent necessary to fulfill our business services to you.

  • Payment & Shipping Providers: Third-party partners (such as payment processors and shipping carriers) have their own strict privacy policies governing how your transaction-related information is handled. We encourage you to review their terms.

  • Jurisdictional Laws: Please note that certain providers may operate in jurisdictions different from yours or ours. If a transaction involves an international provider, your data may become subject to the laws of that jurisdiction.

  • External Links: When you click on links inside our store, they may direct you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external web platforms.

  • Analytics: Our store utilizes Google Analytics to securely analyze traffic patterns and optimize the user experience without compromising individual identity.

5. Security Practices

To protect your personal data, we implement strict administrative and technical guardrails. All payment data is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer technology (SSL) and stored with robust AES-256 encryption. We consistently follow all PCI-DSS standards and enforce widely accepted digital security best practices.
