3. Who we share it with
We never sell your personal data. We only share what’s needed with:
- Shopify, which runs our online store. Shopify may store data on servers outside India, with safeguards in place.
- Payment partners, to process your payment.
- Courier partners, to deliver your order.

4. Cookies & ads
We use cookies to keep your cart working, remember your preferences, understand site traffic (Shopify analytics) and measure our ads (Meta Pixel). You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but parts of the site, like the cart, may not work properly without them.
5. How long we keep it
We keep your data only as long as we need it for the purposes above, or as long as Indian law requires (for example, order and tax records). After that, we delete or anonymise it.
6. How we protect it
Your data is stored on Shopify’s secure platform, and the site uses encrypted (HTTPS) connections. Only people who need your data to run U14U can access it.
