Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 19, 2026

DharmaCraft operates the online store located at https://dharmacraft.us and provides its website, products, customer support, and related services, collectively referred to as the “Services.”

DharmaCraft is powered by Shopify, which provides the ecommerce platform used to operate the Services.

This Privacy Policy explains how DharmaCraft collects, uses, stores, discloses, and otherwise processes personal information when you:

  • Visit or use our website
  • Create or use a customer account
  • Place or manage an order
  • Request a return or refund
  • Contact customer support
  • Subscribe to marketing
  • Submit a review or other content
  • Otherwise interact with DharmaCraft

This Privacy Policy should be read together with our Terms of Service, Your Privacy Choices page, Shipping & Delivery Policy, Return & Refund Policy, and other applicable notices.

If our Terms of Service conflict with this Privacy Policy regarding the collection, use, or disclosure of personal information, this Privacy Policy will control for that issue.

1. Who Controls Your Personal Information

For personal information processed for DharmaCraft’s own business purposes, the operator of DharmaCraft is generally the business responsible for determining why and how that information is processed.

Shopify and other service providers may separately control certain information for their own purposes, as explained in their respective privacy notices.

Store Name: DharmaCraft
Website: https://dharmacraft.us

2. Meaning of Personal Information

“Personal information” or “personal data” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, or can reasonably be linked to an identifiable individual.

Personal information does not generally include information that has been lawfully anonymized or de-identified so that it can no longer reasonably identify or be linked to an individual.

The exact definition may differ under applicable law.

Depending on applicable law, sensitive personal information may include:

  • Account credentials
  • Payment-related information
  • Precise geolocation

  • Processing transactions
  • Providing requested products
  • Securing accounts

  • Protecting access to your email and devices
  • Notifying us of suspected unauthorized activity

Your personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in:

  • Hong Kong
  • The United States
  • Canada

We may take reasonable steps to verify the requester’s relationship to the child before deleting information.

As of the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we do not have actual knowledge that we sell or share personal information belonging to individuals under 16 as those terms are defined by applicable law.

  • Information already maintained
