7. Cookies and Tracking

Aussie Hoodie Shop, Shopify, and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, improve user experience, measure performance, and support marketing.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These technologies support essential functions, including:

  • Maintaining shopping-cart contents;
  • Processing checkout;
  • Maintaining account sessions;
  • Providing security features;
  • Preventing fraud; and
  • Remembering privacy preferences.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

These technologies help us understand website traffic, visitor interactions, campaign performance, and technical errors.

Functional Cookies

These technologies remember preferences and support enhanced website functionality.

Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These technologies may be used to measure advertising performance, support retargeting, create advertising audiences, and display advertising based on prior interactions.

Your Cookie Choices

Where available, you may manage non-essential cookies through our cookie-preference tool.

You may also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent the cart, account, checkout, or other essential features from working correctly.

8. Disclosure of Information

We may disclose personal information to the following categories of recipients:

Shopify

We use Shopify to host and operate the store, process checkout-related information, manage orders and customer records, and provide website functionality.

9. Sale, Sharing, and Advertising

Aussie Hoodie Shop does not sell personal information in exchange for money.

However, certain advertising, analytics, retargeting, cookie, and pixel activities may be defined as a “sale,” “sharing,” cross-context behavioural advertising, or targeted advertising under some privacy laws.

Where applicable, you may opt out by:

  • Emailing support@aussiehoodie.com with the subject line Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information;
  • Using an available cookie-preference tool;
  • Disabling applicable advertising cookies; or
  • Enabling a legally recognized browser-based opt-out preference signal, such as Global Privacy Control.

Where required by applicable law and technically supported, we will make reasonable efforts to treat a recognized opt-out signal as an opt-out request for the browser or device sending the signal.

We do not knowingly sell or share for targeted advertising the personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.

10. Payment Information

Payments are processed by independent payment providers using encrypted payment systems and applicable payment-security controls.

These safeguards may include:

  • Encrypted transmission;
  • Access restrictions;
  • Authentication controls;
  • Payment-provider security measures;
  • Fraud-monitoring tools;
  • Service-provider agreements;
  • Security reviews; and

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

17. Third-Party Services

The Site may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites, payment providers, social-media platforms, review tools, shipping services, or other services that Aussie Hoodie Shop does not control.
