Privacy Policy

Last updated: 7 October 2026

At Bare, we respect your privacy and want you to feel confident about how your information is handled. This policy explains what personal information we collect when you visit bareshop.net, shop with us, or get in touch, and how we use and protect it.

In this policy, "Bare", "we", "us" and "our" refer to Bare Beauty, and "you" refers to anyone who visits our website, places an order, or contacts us. For the purposes of data protection law, we are the controller of your personal information.

Updates to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes to how we operate or to legal requirements. When we do, we'll publish the new version here and update the date at the top of the page.

What information we collect

Information you give us directly

  • Contact details, such as your name, email address, phone number and address
  • Order details, such as your billing and delivery address, payment confirmation and the items you purchase
  • Account details, such as your login and password if you create an account
  • Shopping activity, such as items you view, add to your bag, review or save, and any gift vouchers you use
  • Messages, such as anything you share with us when you contact our team

You can choose not to share certain information, but some features, like placing an order, won't work without it.

Information collected automatically

When you browse our website, we and our service providers may automatically collect information such as your device and browser type, IP address, approximate location, and how you interact with our site and emails. We do this using cookies and similar technologies.

Information from third parties

We may also receive information from trusted partners who help us run our store, including:

  • Shopify, which powers our website and securely processes payments (we never see or store your full card details)
  • Meta and Google, which help us understand how our website and ads are performing

How we use your information

  • To process your orders. This includes taking payment, arranging delivery, sending order and delivery updates, and handling returns and refunds. We do this to fulfil our contract with you.
  • To support you. We use your information to reply to your messages and help with any questions or issues.
  • To keep in touch. If you've signed up to hear from us, we'll send you news about new arrivals, limited drops and offers. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any of our emails.
  • To show you relevant ads. With your consent, we may use cookies and similar tools to show you Bare ads on other websites and social platforms.
  • To improve our website. We look at how people use our site so we can make shopping with us easier and better.
  • To keep things secure. We use your information to help detect and prevent fraud and misuse of our website. This is in our legitimate interest in protecting our customers and our business.
  • To meet legal obligations. For example, keeping records required for tax and accounting purposes.

Cookies

We use cookies to keep our website running smoothly, remember your preferences and your shopping bag, and understand how visitors use our site. With your consent, we also use marketing cookies to tailor the ads you see. You can manage your cookie preferences through the banner on our website or through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the site work. For more on the cookies Shopify uses, visit shopify.com/legal/cookies.

Who we share your information with

We never sell your personal information. We only share it where needed to run our business, including with:

  • Shopify, which hosts our website and processes payments
  • Delivery couriers, so your order can reach you
  • Meta and Google, for advertising and analytics, where you've given consent
  • Authorities or other parties, where we're required to by law or need to protect our rights, our customers or our business
  • A buyer or successor, if our business is ever sold or restructured

Reviews and public content

If you leave a product review or other content in a public area of our website, it may be visible to anyone. Please avoid sharing personal details you'd prefer to keep private.

Links to other websites

Our website may link to other sites, such as brand pages or social media. We're not responsible for how those sites handle your information, so we'd recommend reading their privacy policies.

Children

Our website is not intended for children under 16, and we don't knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has shared their information with us, please contact us and we'll delete it.

How we protect and store your information

We take reasonable steps to keep your information safe, although no method of transmitting or storing data online is completely secure. We only keep your information for as long as we need it, for example to manage your account, fulfil orders, resolve any issues, or meet legal and accounting requirements.

International transfers

Some of our service providers, such as Shopify, Meta and Google, may process your information outside the European Economic Area. Where this happens, we rely on recognised safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, unless the country has been confirmed as providing adequate protection.

Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you
  • Correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete
  • Ask us to delete your information
  • Ask us to restrict or stop processing your information
  • Receive a copy of your information and have it transferred to another provider
  • Object to processing based on our legitimate interests, including direct marketing
  • Withdraw your consent at any time, where we rely on consent

To make a request, email us at barebeautymt@gmail.com. We may need to confirm your identity before responding, and we'll reply within the timeframe required by law.

Complaints

If you have any concerns about how we handle your information, please contact us first and we'll do our best to help. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information and Data Protection Commissioner (IDPC) in Malta, or with the data protection authority in your country.
