Payment and Account Security

PAYMENT AND ACCOUNT SECURITY

Minkio, LLC does not collect and store passwords or payment information.

This store is powered by Shopify. Shopify's compliance covers all six PCI standard categories and automatically applies to every store using the platform. Shopify maintains accounts, and your payment information will be processed by the payment processor you choose.

When you check out, you can choose to pay using any of the methods offered, such as with credit cards via Shop/Shopify, Amazon, Paypal, Google Pay, Facebook Pay, and others. You can create an account to save your shipping and payment information to check out faster in the future.

Please see Shopify PCI Compliance assessment information for more details.

 

DATA SECURITY

Mikio does not directly sell your information for money. Like many companies, however, we may use services that help deliver internet ads, and this process may utilize your online identifiers to business partners for their use. 

Please review our Privacy Policy for a more detailed description of how we collect and use it in operating our business.

You can request to automatically any information related to your account or shopping at our store using the Minkio, LLC Privacy Request form

In addition to your ability to request Minkio to remove your information, there are a number of tools and methods we share below (courtesy of The Atlantic) that you may use to opt out of having your online activity and device data collected by third parties: 

 Blocking Cookies in Your Browser. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies but also usually allow you to modify your settings to disable or reject cookies, including cookies for interest-based advertising. If you delete your cookies or set your web browser to decline cookies, however, some features of the Services may not work or may not work as designed. You can usually find these settings in the Options or Preferences menu of your browser; links to instructions provided by several of the most common browsers are below. You can also learn more at www.allaboutcookies.org.

Blocking advertising ID use in your mobile settings. Your mobile device settings may provide the functionality to limit the use of the advertising ID associated with your mobile device for interest-based advertising purposes.

Advertising Industry Opt-Out Tools. Many third-party advertisers use tracking or targeting tools in connection with our Services directly or are members of programs that offer you additional choices regarding the collection and use of your information. You can learn more about the options available to limit these participating third parties' display and use of your data by visiting their websites:

  • Opt Out of Interest Based Advertising (National Advertising Initiative)
  • Your Ad Choices (Digital Advertising Alliance)
  • Your Online Choices (European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance)
  • Users of our mobile apps may opt-out of receiving targeted advertising in mobile apps through participating members of the Digital Advertising Alliance by installing the AppChoices mobile app, available here, and selecting the user's choices.

Platform Opt Out Tools. Google and Facebook offer opt-out features that let you opt-out of use of your information for interest-based advertising.

Mobile App Tracking Opt-Out Tools. You can learn about your options to opt-out of mobile app tracking by specific advertising networks through your device settings. For more information about how to change these settings for Apple, Android, or Windows devices, see:

Social Media Services Settings. If you choose to connect to the Services via a third-party platform or social media network, you may have the ability to limit the information that we may obtain from the third-party at the time you login to the Services using the third-party's authentication service or otherwise connect your account. Subsequently, you may be able to control your settings through the third-party's platform or service. For example, you may access and change your settings through the Facebook settings page for Apps and Websites. If you withdraw our ability to access certain information from a third-party platform or social media network, that choice will not apply to information that we have already received from that third party.

Using Privacy Plug-ins or Browsers. You can block our websites from setting cookies used for interest-based ads by using a browser with privacy features, like Brave, or installing browser plugins like Privacy Badger, Ghostery or uBlock Origin, and configuring them to block third-party cookies/trackers.
