The Service is hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes information about your access to and use of the Service in order to provide and improve the Service on our behalf. Information you submit to the Service may be shared with, and processed by, Shopify and third parties who may be located in countries other than your own, in order to provide and improve the Service.

Third-Party Websites and Links
The Service may contain links to websites or platforms operated by third parties that we do not control.
