How do I process your information?
I share your Personal Information with third parties to help me use your Personal Information, as described above. For example, I use BigCommerce to power my online store. You can read more about how BigCommerce uses your Personal Information here: Through BigCommerce, I also use other, highly specialized external providers to provide the most competitive services. For example: Payment: My store is PCI-DSS compliant (a very strict industry standard with requirements for the security of credit card information), but I want to use accredited companies to process your credit card information. Mine is PayPal and Amazon Pay. For Shipping: I integrate with Royal Mail to fulfill your orders. Partnering with highly specialized external companies allows me to focus on what I do best: selling great cards. How can you control your personal data?

I will store all the personal information you provide on my secure (password- and firewall- protected) servers.
