Privacy Policy

Shirt Archive ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This policy explains what we collect, why, how we use it, and the rights you have under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and equivalent laws. It applies to this website and to orders placed with us.

Information we collect

  • Order & contact details you provide: name, billing and shipping address, email, phone number.
  • Payment information: processed securely by our payment providers. We do not store full card numbers on our servers.
  • Account information if you create an account (order history, saved addresses).
  • Technical & usage data: IP address, device and browser type, pages viewed and how you interact with the site, collected through cookies and similar technologies.

How and why we use your data

  • To process and deliver your orders and handle returns (legal basis: performance of a contract).
  • To communicate with you about orders and customer-service enquiries (contract / legitimate interest).
  • To send marketing emails where you have opted in (consent — you can unsubscribe at any time).
  • To improve our website, prevent fraud and keep the store secure (legitimate interest).
  • To comply with legal, tax and accounting obligations.

Cookies

We use cookies to keep your cart working, remember preferences, measure traffic and, where permitted, support marketing. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; some features of the site may not work without them.

Sharing your data

We only share data with trusted providers who help us run the store, including our e-commerce platform (Shopify), payment processors, and shipping and logistics partners. These parties process data on our behalf under appropriate agreements. We never sell your personal data.

International transfers

Some providers may process data outside your country or the European Economic Area. Where that happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses to protect your information.

Data retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes above, including satisfying legal, tax and accounting requirements. When it is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.

Your rights

Under GDPR you have the right to access, correct, delete or port your data, to restrict or object to processing, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, or to make a complaint, contact us at support@shirtarchive.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be published on this page with a revised date.
