Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
6. Marketing and Communications
We may use your information to send order updates, service messages and transactional communications necessary to manage your purchases.
We may also send promotional emails or other marketing communications where permitted by applicable law.
Where consent is required, we will request it before sending marketing communications.
Where applicable law permits promotional communications to existing customers without additional consent, we will comply with the conditions and opt-out requirements established by that law.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe link included in our messages or by contacting us at s.watchanatomy@gmail.com, c.watchanatomy@gmail.com
Unsubscribing from marketing communications will not prevent us from sending necessary transactional or service-related messages.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to support essential functionality, remember preferences, improve the browsing experience, analyze website performance and, where enabled, provide personalized advertising.
Strictly necessary cookies may be used without consent where permitted by applicable law.
Non-essential cookies and tracking technologies, including certain analytics and advertising tools, will be used only when the applicable legal requirements are satisfied, including obtaining prior consent where required.
Where applicable, you can manage or withdraw your tracking preferences through the cookie settings controls provided on our website.
Additional information about the specific cookies and tracking technologies actually used, their providers, purposes and retention periods should be available through our Cookie Policy or cookie preference interface.

9. Relationship with Shopify
Our Services are hosted and supported by Shopify.
Shopify processes personal information to provide and improve the e-commerce services used by our store, including infrastructure, security, payment integrations, customer account features and other enabled Shopify services.
Depending on the Shopify features used, Shopify may act as a data processor on our behalf or as an independent controller for certain processing activities.

Where applicable, Shopify is responsible for processing activities for which it acts as an independent controller.
For more information, please review the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy and the Shopify Privacy Portal.
10. International Data Transfers
Because our business operates internationally and uses third-party technology providers, personal information may be transferred to or processed in countries outside your country of residence.
Where the GDPR applies and personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, we will rely on appropriate transfer mechanisms as required by law.
These may include adequacy decisions issued by the European Commission, applicable Standard Contractual Clauses or other legally recognized safeguards.
Information about applicable transfer safeguards may be requested through our contact details.
11. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to applicable legal requirements.
The retention periods or criteria generally depend on the category of information:
Order and accounting records: retained for the period required by applicable tax, accounting and commercial laws, including ten years where the relevant Italian recordkeeping requirements apply.
Customer account information: retained while the account remains active and, after closure, for any additional period necessary to fulfill legal obligations, resolve disputes or establish or defend legal claims.
Customer support communications: retained for the time reasonably necessary to address the request and any related contractual or legal matters.
Marketing information: retained for as long as the relevant lawful basis remains valid and the information is necessary for the stated marketing purpose, subject to periodic review and any applicable retention limits.
Website analytics and cookie-related information: retained according to the applicable settings, purposes and periods disclosed in our Cookie Policy or consent interface.
Security and fraud prevention records: retained for periods proportionate to the security purpose and any applicable legal requirements.
When personal information is no longer required, it will be deleted, anonymized or otherwise handled in accordance with applicable law.
12. Data Security
We use appropriate technical and organizational measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss or destruction.
Our website relies on Shopify and other professional service providers for parts of its technical infrastructure and security.
Although we take reasonable precautions, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

16. Third-Party Websites
Our website may contain links to third-party websites, applications and services.
