Privacy Policy

Technical Area ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your personal information. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.

What We Collect

• Order information: name, email, shipping address, phone number, and payment details (processed securely by Shopify — we never see your full card number)
• Account information if you create an account
• Communications if you email us or sign up to our newsletter
• Browsing data: pages visited, device type, and browser via cookies and analytics tools

How We Use Your Data

• To process and fulfil your orders
• To send order confirmations and shipping updates
• To respond to your enquiries
• To send marketing emails if you've opted in (you can unsubscribe any time)
• To improve our store and understand how customers use it

Who We Share Data With

We share necessary order and shipping data with our fulfilment and logistics partners in order to produce and deliver your order. We use Shopify as our e-commerce platform — their privacy policy applies to payment processing. We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

Cookies

We use cookies for essential store functionality, analytics (to understand traffic), and optional marketing. You can manage cookie preferences via the cookie banner on your first visit.

Your Rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data. To make a request, email hello@technicalarea.store. We will respond within 30 days.
