The storefront has no customer accounts or hidden tracking. Bag and privacy choices remain in the browser as described in the Privacy Notice.
If the AI support chat is enabled, messages typed into it and limited recent conversation context are sent to OpenAI to generate replies. Anonymous chat transcripts are retained privately by Covert Aesthetic for 30 days for support quality and abuse review, then deleted. Customers must not submit card details, passwords, addresses, authentication codes, or other sensitive information. The assistant cannot access or verify an individual order.
Stripe handles payment processing and the checkout, payment, contact, and shipping information needed for the order. Stripe-hosted Checkout means this storefront does not receive or store the card number. The store keeps selected items, amounts, opaque checkout and event identifiers, and processing state and consent evidence needed to validate payment and prevent duplicate orders; it does not store the checkout email or delivery address. When a signed shipment notice arrives, the store temporarily retrieves the checkout email from Stripe solely to send a transactional tracking update through Resend, then does not copy the email into its order database.
After verified payment, Printify and the fulfillment provider selected for the order receive only the information needed to produce and ship it: recipient name, shipping address, contact details where required, items and variants, shipping method, and order identifiers. The order is held for merchant production approval.
Support email includes what the customer chooses to send and any order details needed to investigate and respond. Information is shared only as applicable for payment, fulfillment, transactional delivery updates, support, legal compliance, and protection against fraud or abuse. Covert Aesthetic remains responsible for an accurate privacy notice; we do not claim that order data is never shared or identify a provider that has not been selected for a transaction.
Marketing emails are optional. The unchecked option before secure checkout lets you request Covert Aesthetic product news, collection launches and offers at the email address you enter in Stripe. We record your choice, the notice version and time with the checkout reference; the email address stays with Stripe, not in our order database. Only a completed, verified purchase makes this checkout opt-in eligible for a future mailing list. An unchecked box is not new consent. This is separate from order and shipment emails, SMS, analytics and advertising choices. No customer account or signup is required to buy. To withdraw consent, email covertaesthetic@gmail.com; future marketing messages must also provide an unsubscribe link. This checkout option does not itself send promotional messages.
Optional Google Analytics: when configured and you allow analytics, Google receives pseudonymous browser/session identifiers, product IDs, viewed/added items, checkout starts, and server-verified purchase amounts with an opaque transaction ID. Only approved Google, Instagram, Facebook and campaign source labels are retained; unknown sources are unattributed. We do not send names, email addresses, phone numbers, street addresses, card details or full URL query strings to analytics. Advertising signals and personalization are not enabled by this analytics choice. Our browser identifiers and checkout attribution expire after 90 days; Google event/user retention is configured separately. You can choose Necessary only from Privacy choices to stop future browser tracking and request cancellation of pending analytics delivery. An event already sent cannot be recalled. Shopping, payment and fulfillment do not depend on analytics. Email marketing permission is separate.
For checkout confirmation, essential signed cookies cover up to five recent checkout attempts and expire after 24 hours. A temporary reference stays in your browser tab. They connect this device to a read-only payment-status check; they contain no card or contact details.
When the welcome offer is enabled, its separate, unchecked signup box requests Covert Aesthetic marketing emails through Klaviyo. You must confirm that signup to receive the personal 10% code for a first eligible order with at least $100 in merchandise before discount, excluding shipping and tax. Marketing signup is required for the offer, never for a purchase; the optional checkout marketing checkbox remains separate. Klaviyo keeps email and subscription records and handles confirmation and unsubscribe requests. Once signup is confirmed, Resend delivers a claim link and Stripe checks offer eligibility. The address is temporarily encrypted in our verification records and cleared after successful verification; expired verification data is cleared during routine offer processing. A keyed email hash, Stripe and Klaviyo references, consent version and timestamps, and offer-use record are retained for consent evidence and the one-use limit. An essential HttpOnly cookie connects this browser to the offer until 14 days after the first request. The personal code is shown only after confirmation and is not saved in browser storage; you may choose to copy it. You may unsubscribe anytime through the link in marketing emails or by contacting covertaesthetic@gmail.com.
