7. Cookies and Analytics

 

A. Cookies

Cookies are small files placed on your device that help websites function and remember certain information.

We use cookies for:

• Essential functions (such as site stability and security)
• Preferences and functionality (such as keeping you signed in, where applicable)

You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you disable cookies, parts of the Site may not function correctly.

You can learn about Google Analytics opt-out options through Google’s tools and your browser privacy settings.

 

8. Sharing and Disclosure of Information

We do not sell personal information. We share information only as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including:

 

A. Shopify (Store Provider)

We share or process information with Shopify in connection with our store at mischiefmarket.shop for:

• Checkout, payment processing, and order management
• Fulfillment-related workflows
• Customer service related to store activity

Shopify may process information as a separate controller under its own privacy policy.

 

B. Service Providers

We may share information with service providers who help us operate the Site, including hosting and infrastructure providers (see Section 10). These providers are permitted to use information only to perform services for us.

 

C. Legal and Safety Reasons

We may disclose information if we believe it is necessary to:

• Protect the safety, security, and rights of BASIC Studios, our users, or the public
• Prevent fraud, abuse, or attacks on our services

 

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

• If you remove your account, we will retain your personal information for up to 90 days after account removal, unless a longer period is required by law or necessary for legitimate business purposes (such as resolving disputes or enforcing agreements).

Some information may persist in backups for a limited period due to standard system operations.

 

10. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, or loss. We store information on secure servers through:

• WordPress (site platform)
• IONOS (hosting provider)

No system is perfectly secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for notifying us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access.

 

11. International Data Transfers

We do not intentionally transfer personal information internationally. Our services are operated from the United States. If your device or service provider routes data through infrastructure outside your country, that processing is controlled by those third parties and your device/network settings.
