CC U SOON
Privacy policy
Last updated: October 25, 2026
Who Is Responsible
Liam Pablo Sauter, operating under the name CCIRCO, is responsible for the personal information described in this policy. You can contact us at info@ccirco.com or at our correspondence address: Liam Pablo Sauter, CCIRCO, Industriestrasse 8, 8404 Winterthur, Switzerland.
This policy explains how we use personal information on ccirco.com and in our communications with you. Our public website currently displays a coming-soon page with an email newsletter signup. The sections about customer accounts and shopping apply when you access those services; submitting the coming-soon form does not require an account or a purchase.
Information We Collect and Why
- Newsletter signup: your email address, subscription status, signup source and subscription timestamps. We use these records to send the messages you request, manage subscriptions and document your preferences.
- Website visits: technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, and interactions with our website. Shopify processes this information to deliver the website, maintain security, understand usage and provide the services described below.
- Email interactions: delivery, opening and link-click information, unsubscribes and spam complaints, as explained in the newsletter section.
- Messages to us: your email address, name if provided, and the content of your enquiry. We use this information to respond and deal with your request.
- Customer accounts and shopping: when you use these services, contact and address details, account profile and preferences, products viewed or added to your bag, order details, payment status and transaction references. Shopify and payment providers process payment details to complete payments. We use the relevant records to manage accounts, orders, delivery, returns and customer support. Shopify hosts our customer-account login; it is not a separate CCIRCO password-registration form.
We receive information directly from you, through your use of our website and emails, and from Shopify and the service providers involved in providing these functions. We also use relevant records to prevent abuse, comply with legal obligations and handle disputes.
Newsletter and Welcome Email
Our coming-soon signup asks for your email address to receive CCIRCO drop news and updates. By submitting that form, you subscribe to these emails. We use Shopify Messaging to manage subscriptions and send emails from info@ccirco.com, including an automatic welcome email after a new signup. A separate email-confirmation step (double opt-in) is not currently enabled.
You can withdraw your newsletter consent at any time using the unsubscribe link in our marketing emails or by contacting info@ccirco.com. This stops future newsletter messages. It does not prevent us from answering an enquiry or sending service messages relating to an account or order.
Email measurement: optimized open tracking is enabled in Shopify Messaging. Email opens and link clicks are recorded to assess engagement and campaign performance. Tracking images and tracked links can associate these interactions with a recipient. Links also contain campaign identifiers (UTM parameters). We use the resulting reports to understand which messages interest subscribers and improve future emails. Email software and automated activity can affect the accuracy of these measurements.
Shopify also records delivery outcomes, unsubscribes and spam complaints, filters suspected bot activity and excludes invalid addresses or hard bounces. Smart delivery is enabled and can use engagement signals to prioritize recipients when Shopify's audience-size requirements apply.
Cookies and Spam Protection
Shopify uses cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember relevant preferences and support security, analytics and the enhanced services described below. Shopify's automated regional cookie-banner settings are enabled. A cookie-choice banner is not currently displayed for our configured Swiss market. Where a banner is displayed, you can use its controls to manage your choices. You can also manage cookies through your browser; blocking them can affect website functions.
Our forms use Shopify's hCaptcha protection against automated submissions and spam. hCaptcha is provided by Intuition Machines, Inc. in the United States. It processes technical and interaction information, such as IP address, browser information and challenge responses, to distinguish people from bots. A visible challenge can appear when a submission requires additional verification. See the hCaptcha Privacy Policy for details. Intuition Machines states that it participates in the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework for relevant transfers from Switzerland.
Shopify and Other Recipients
Shopify provides our website, customer-account and commerce infrastructure, and Shopify Messaging provides newsletter delivery. Information required for these services is shared with Shopify and its service providers, including hosting, infrastructure and email-delivery providers. Providers involved in payments and delivery receive the information needed for those functions when you use our shopping services.
Shopify Network Intelligence is enabled. Shopify uses information from interactions with our store together with information from interactions with other merchants and Shopify to provide enhanced services, including improvements to products, personalization, store performance and advertising targeting. Shopify acts as a controller for this processing. Details and privacy choices are available in the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy and the Shopify Privacy Portal.
We also disclose relevant information where necessary to comply with a legal obligation or valid authority request, protect our rights or address misuse. Following a link to Instagram takes you to an external service, whose own privacy policy applies to your use of that service.
International Processing
Our Shopify administration lists the European Union as the hosting region. This does not mean that all processing remains in the EU. Shopify identifies Shopify International Limited in Ireland as the initial processor for customers in Switzerland, the EEA and the UK. Its published platform and messaging processing locations also include Canada, the United States and Singapore; the locations involved depend on the service and provider. Shopify's subprocessor list identifies the providers, services and countries, including further locations relevant to particular Shopify services.
Shopify describes its transfer safeguards in its Data Processing Addendum, including binding corporate rules for relevant transfers between Shopify entities and standard contractual clauses with Swiss adaptations where required. The hCaptcha service involves processing in the United States as described above. You can contact us for further information about recipients and applicable transfer safeguards.
Retention and Security
We keep subscription information to manage your newsletter subscription while it is active. Unsubscribing changes your marketing status; it does not automatically delete your Shopify customer record. Records of your preferences and subscription history can remain necessary to respect an opt-out, document consent or address a dispute. You can request deletion separately by emailing us.
For enquiries, accounts and orders, retention depends on the purpose of the record, the duration of the relationship, applicable legal retention requirements and any unresolved dispute. We do not promise automatic deletion after a fixed number of days. Deletion requests are assessed against these needs and applicable law; we explain any reason that prevents deletion.
We use the access controls and security features of our service providers to protect personal information. No system can guarantee absolute security. Please avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information in an email enquiry.
Your Rights and Choices
The Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP/DSG) applies to our processing where relevant. Subject to the conditions and exceptions in applicable law, you can request access to your personal information, correction of inaccurate data, deletion, and the release or transfer of data. You can object to processing and withdraw consent for future processing where processing relies on your consent. Newsletter withdrawal is available through every marketing email.
Where the EU or UK GDPR applies, its additional protections include the right to request restriction of processing and to object to processing, including direct marketing. Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing lawfully carried out before withdrawal.
Send requests to info@ccirco.com. We may need information to verify your identity before acting on a request. For concerns about data protection in Switzerland, you can contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC/EDÖB). Where applicable, you can also complain to the supervisory authority in your country. For processing for which Shopify is responsible, you can use its privacy portal linked above.
Changes and Contact
We update this policy when our services or processing practices change and show the update date above. Questions or requests can be sent to info@ccirco.com or to Liam Pablo Sauter, CCIRCO, Industriestrasse 8, 8404 Winterthur, Switzerland (correspondence address).
