Privacy Policy — What We Know About You And Why

Last updated: May 15, 2026

We're a small operation. We're not out here building a surveillance empire. But we do collect some information to run this business, and you deserve to know exactly what, why, and what happens to it. Here's the honest version.

Who We Are AwkWeird Shirts LLC is an Idaho limited liability company operating at awkweirdshirts.com. We make sarcastic t-shirts and accessories. Our Services are hosted and powered by Shopify. If there's ever a conflict between our Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy, this Privacy Policy wins — at least where your personal information is concerned.

By using our site or placing an order, you acknowledge you've read this policy and understand how we handle your information. Yes, we're actually asking you to read it. We know. Wild.

What We Collect Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:

  • Contact details — name, shipping/billing address, phone number, email
  • Financial information — payment card details, transaction history (processed securely by Shopify — we never see your full card number)
  • Account information — username, password, preferences and settings
  • Transaction information — what you viewed, carted, purchased, returned, or abandoned at the last second
  • Communications — anything you send us via email or our contact form
  • Device and usage information — IP address, browser type, how you navigate the site, and similar technical data collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies

We do not collect more than we need. We are not interesting enough to be that invasive.

Where We Get It

  • Directly from you when you place an order, create an account, or contact us
  • Automatically through the site via cookies and similar tracking technologies
  • From our service providers (Shopify, Printify, shipping carriers) who help us operate
  • Occasionally from business partners or other third parties

How We Use It We use your information to:

  • Process and fulfill your order — the whole point
  • Communicate with you about orders, shipping, and support
  • Remember your preferences and improve your experience on the site
  • Send marketing emails if you opted in — you can opt out anytime, zero guilt
  • Show you relevant ads on our site and elsewhere, including based on past purchases
  • Detect fraud and keep the store secure
  • Comply with legal obligations when required

Who We Share It With Only who needs it to get your shirt to you:

  • Shopify — our e-commerce platform and payment processor
  • Printify — our print-on-demand fulfillment partner
  • Shipping carriers — to actually deliver your order
  • Business and marketing partners — to support advertising and site functionality, in accordance with their own privacy policies
  • Legal or regulatory authorities — if required by law, valid legal process, or to protect our rights

We do not sell your data. We do not trade it. We are not that kind of operation.

Our Relationship with Shopify Because our store runs on Shopify, information you submit is transmitted to and processed by Shopify, including potentially to servers outside your home country. Shopify has its own privacy obligations and handles certain data processing independently. To learn more about how Shopify uses your information or to exercise rights related to Shopify's processing, visit the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy or the Shopify Privacy Portal.

Cookies We use cookies to keep things functional — cart memory, site analytics, and the like. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some features may sulk. We also honor the Global Privacy Control opt-out signal — if your browser sends it, we'll treat it as an opt-out request for targeted advertising for that device and browser.

Your Rights Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Receive a portable copy of your data
  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of your information for targeted advertising purposes — you can exercise that right [here]
  • Opt out of marketing emails at any time via the unsubscribe link in any email we send

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests. You may also designate an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf — we'll need proof of authorization before we act on it.

If you have complaints about how we handle your data, contact us directly. Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Data Security & Retention We take reasonable precautions to protect your information. Our store is hosted on Shopify, which maintains industry-standard security. No system is foolproof — we just don't do anything stupid with your data. We retain your information as long as necessary to maintain your account, fulfill orders, comply with legal obligations, and resolve disputes.

International Transfers We may transfer, store, or process your information outside the country you live in. Where required, we rely on recognized transfer mechanisms like the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.

Third-Party Links Our site may link to external websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Click with awareness.

Children's Privacy Our site is not intended for children under the age of majority in your jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect information from minors. If you believe a child has submitted information to us, contact us and we'll handle it promptly. As of the date of this policy, we do not knowingly sell or share personal information of individuals under 16.

Changes to This Policy We may update this policy as needed — for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. Changes will be posted here with an updated date at the top.
