Last Updated: October 2023
Welcome, spooky shoppers and Halloween enthusiasts, to Hyde and EEK Shop! We know that the only thing scarier than a haunted house is worrying about your privacy. That’s why we’ve crafted this Privacy Policy to be as transparent as a ghost and as secure as a vampire’s coffin. At Hyde and EEK Shop (located at hydeeek-halloween.com), we value your trust and are committed to protecting your personal information like a witch guards her spellbook. This policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you visit our website or make purchases. By using our site, you agree to the practices described belowâso grab a pumpkin spice treat and read on!
1. Information We Collect
When you browse our ghoulishly delightful site or make a purchase, we may collect the following types of information to enhance your Halloween experience:
- Personal Information: This includes details like your name, email address, shipping address (e.g., 959 Farland Street, Chicago, US 60637, if applicable), and payment information (e.g., Visa, MasterCard, JCB, or PayPal details). We only collect what’s necessary to process your orders for cosmetics, Halloween outfits, decorations, and more.
- Technical Data: We automatically gather information such as your IP address, browser type, device details, and pages visited. This helps us improve our site’s performance and ensure it’s as smooth as a phantom’s glide.
- Cookies and Tracking Data: We use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, analyze site traffic, and personalize your shopping experience. Think of them as little magical traces that make your visits spookier and more efficient.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the data we collect for purposes that are as clear as a full moon night, including:
- Processing your orders for Halloween candy bags, party supplies, and other products, and providing instant confirmation faster than a werewolf’s transformation.
- Improving our website and services based on how you interact with our content, ensuring it’s tailored for Halloween lovers worldwide (except in Asia and a few remote areas where delivery spirits can’t reach).
- Sending promotional emails or updates about new spooky items, if you’ve opted inâbecause every witch needs to know about the latest decorations!
- Ensuring security by monitoring transactions to prevent fraud, with measures more vigilant than a cemetery full of watchful spirits.
3. Sharing and Disclosure of Information
We treat your data with the secrecy of a coven and only share it in the following circumstances:
- Service Providers: We may share information with trusted third parties, such as payment processors (e.g., PayPal) and shipping partners, to fulfill your orders. They are bound by strict agreements to protect your data.
- Legal Requirements: If required by law, we might disclose information to comply with regulations or protect our rightsâbut only as a last resort, like summoning a ghost for help.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger or sale, your data may be transferred, but we’ll ensure the new entity follows this policy.
We never sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. Your details are safer with us than a vampire in a coffin at noon!
4. Data Storage and Security
At Hyde and EEK Shop, we take data security more seriously than a zombie takes brains. Your information is stored on secure servers protected by advanced encryption and security protocols that would frighten away even the most determined digital phantoms. We never store complete payment details on our systems, and all transactions are monitored round-the-clock. While we strive for maximum protection, no method is 100% secure, so we continuously update our spellsâer, measuresâto keep your data safe.
5. Your Rights
As a valued customer, you have rights over your data that are as empowering as a wizard’s wand:
- Access and Correction: You can request to view or update your personal information by contacting us.
- Deletion: Ask us to delete your data, unless we need to retain it for legal reasons.
- Opt-Out: Unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the link in our messages or reaching out to us.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking tools to enhance your browsing experience, analyze site traffic, and remember your preferencesâlike which Halloween lights you’ve been eyeing. These technologies help us understand our audience of global Halloween enthusiasts and improve our services. You can control cookies through your browser, but note that some features might not work as smoothly if you disable them.
7. International Data Transfers
Since we serve customers worldwide (with a few exceptions), your data may be processed in countries outside your residence. We ensure that such transfers comply with applicable privacy laws, such as the GDPR for European customers, by using standard contractual clauses or other safeguards. Rest assured, your data is protected no matter where it travelsâlike a phantom on a global haunting spree.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or laws. When we do, we’ll post the new version on our site with an updated date.
