Who do we share your personal information with?
In order for us to provide products and services to you, we share your personal information with third parties within the Mindwell Design corporate family, and our trusted third parties, as detailed below. Whenever we share your personal information, we put safeguards in place which require these organizations to keep your information safe and not use your personal information for any reason other than to provide you with those specific services, except as may be permitted by law.
We work with a number of trusted service providers who carry out services on our behalf when you purchase products and services from us. The services provided by these organizations include fulfilling orders, delivering Mindwell Design products and services, and processing payments. We require these service providers to keep your information secure and only allow service providers to use or disclose your information in order to provide the services to us and for no other purpose.
We share your financial information including your credit card, debit card, or other payment information with third parties to ensure that your payment is safe and that your details are not being used fraudulently. This data sharing enables us to conduct fraud analysis which ensures that genuine and accurate payment details are provided to us for any purchase.

We work with selected third parties, such as our customer database hosting provider, marketing agencies and advertising partners who assist us in providing you with a positive customer experience. We work with these third parties to place relevant content and advertisements for you on our website, other websites, social media, and online and mobile apps. In order to do this, Mindwell Design and selected third parties place cookies, pixels and related technology on our website. The advertising cookies can be stored for varied periods of time, may remember your browsing activity and may be used to understand demographical information. Only anonymized information is captured and aggregated (so that it can no longer be associated with you) to share with third parties in order to provide you with relevant content.
