Our website and online store are powered by Shopify, enabling us to offer our products and services to customers in Singapore and internationally (collectively, the "Services").
We are committed to handling personal information responsibly and in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act 2012 ("PDPA") and other privacy laws where applicable.

Where required by applicable law, we obtain consent before collecting, using or disclosing personal information.
With your consent or where otherwise permitted by law, we may send communications about new plant collections, product launches, workshops, events, promotions and other Soilboy offerings.

You may also withdraw consent for certain uses of your personal information by contacting us. We will inform you of the likely consequences where applicable and process your request in accordance with relevant legal requirements.

We will comply with applicable electronic marketing requirements, including Singapore's Do Not Call provisions where relevant.
Essential communications relating to orders, accounts and services may continue where necessary and permitted by law.
We may disclose personal information to third parties where reasonably necessary to operate our business, provide our Services or comply with applicable law.

Our online store is hosted by Shopify, which collects and processes personal information relating to your access to and use of our website to provide, maintain, secure and improve the Services.
Information submitted through our website may be transmitted to Shopify and its authorised service providers, including parties located outside your country of residence.
Shopify offers enhanced services that may use information about interactions with Soilboy, other merchants and Shopify to support features such as fraud prevention, personalisation, analytics and advertising.
Where these features are enabled, Shopify may process personal information obtained through interactions with our store, other merchants and Shopify. For processing carried out by Shopify for its own purposes, Shopify is responsible for handling that information in accordance with its applicable privacy policies.

Where a personal data breach occurs, we will assess and respond to it in accordance with applicable legal requirements, including notification obligations where required.

Where personal information is transferred outside Singapore, we will take appropriate steps to comply with the transfer requirements under the PDPA, including ensuring that transferred information receives a standard of protection comparable to that required under the PDPA.
Where other applicable data protection laws impose additional international transfer requirements, we will use appropriate safeguards or legally recognised transfer mechanisms as required.
These may include applicable adequacy decisions, contractual safeguards or other mechanisms permitted by relevant law.
