At the stage of sending text messages, the data is transmitted to our operator to send the messages.

The recipient who no longer wishes to receive them can also contact the email address sphereplaisir@gmail.com so that they can be properly unsubscribed.
Once you give your approval, you can always withdraw it. So, if you no longer want us to contact you or collect your information, you can let us know via sphereplaisir@gmail.com or by mail to 1100 Avenue du Docteur Penfield, Montréal, QC, H3A 1A8
ARTICLE 3 - DISCLOSURE
The publication of your personal information can only occur if the law obliges us to do so or in the event that one of our General Conditions of Sale and Use is violated.
ARTICLE 4 – SHOPIFY
Shopify Inc is the company that hosts Pleasure Sphere . The commerce platform used to sell you Sphère Plaisir services and products is provided by Shopify Inc. They store your various information in their storage system and databases. Data is preserved on a secure server protected by a firewall within their application. As soon as you make a purchase through a direct payment gateway, when you want to pay, your credit card information is stored by Shopify. This information is then encrypted according to the PCI-DSS standard. This is in fact the data security standard established by the payment card industry. The duration of storage of data relating to your purchase extends until the moment you finalize your order. Thus, when the finalization is done, the data is deleted from the database. The various information used for your order goes through Shopify and payment processors. We therefore have no direct access to this information. The various direct payment gateways comply with the PCI-DSS standard which stands for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. This security standard was designed by the five main card networks, namely: Visa , MasterCard , American Express , Discover Card and JCB . Its role is to ensure the secure processing of credit card data as part of the purchases you make on Sphère Plaisir and by its service providers. See the Shopify Terms of Service here for additional information.
ARTICLE 5 – SERVICES PROVIDED BY THIRD PARTIES
Overall, the different services are provided by the suppliers we use. Indeed, they will collect, use and disclose your information if necessary in order to carry out the services they provide to us. Payment processing is an example of these services provided. Please note, however, that certain providers such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processes have their own privacy policies. These policies relate to the information we must provide for your purchase transactions on Sphère Plaisir . To understand more about how providers will treat your personal information, we advise you to carefully read their privacy policies. Thus, the confidentiality policies of the networks are at the following addresses: that of Visa here, that of American Express here, that of MasterCard here , that of JCB here or that of Stripe here . Third-party providers and their facilities may be located in another jurisdiction (different from us and you). So, if you require the services of a supplier for a transaction, you should consider their jurisdiction. This is because your data may be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where the provider or its facilities are located. Let's take the following example: you are in Canada and the payment gateway that handles your exchange is in the United States then the information that was used to conclude the transaction could be published according to United States legislation like the Patriot Act. This Confidentiality Policy and the General Conditions of Sale and Use of Sphère Plaisir no longer governs you if you are in one of the following cases: you have left the Sphère Plaisir site, you have been referred to another site or to a third party application for your payment.

ARTICLE 6 - SECURITY
Many precautions are taken by our service to protect your personal data. Additionally, we use industry-leading best practices to ensure your information is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, published, modified or deleted. In addition, the credit card information that you provide to us is encrypted using the SSL security protocol and stored with AES-256 type encryption. This means that no man can have access to your entire card number. Because there is no longer a 100% secure method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage, all PCI-DSS requirements are met and we add other industry-recognized standards to further more security.
