Security

How We Protect Your Information

Encryption

Information sent between your browser and our site is encrypted with TLS (HTTPS).

PCI-compliant payments

Payments are processed on Shopify's PCI DSS Level 1 infrastructure. We never store full card numbers or security codes.

Limited access

Only staff who need customer information to do their jobs — such as fulfilling orders and answering questions — can access it.

Platform security

Our store runs on Shopify, which provides firewalls, DDoS protection, intrusion detection, and independent security audits.

No method of storing or sending data is 100% secure. If a data breach affects your personal information, we will notify you and the appropriate authorities as required by law, including the Illinois Personal Information Protection Act (815 ILCS 530) and the breach notification laws of your state.
