At YnTex, we respect the privacy of our customers and visitors and are committed to protecting personal information collected through our online store.
This Privacy Policy explains how YnTex collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects personal information when customers visit or make purchases through www.yntex.shop, create or use a customer account, interact with our services, submit returns or refunds, communicate with us, or otherwise use the YnTex website and related services.
This Privacy Policy should be read alongside any other applicable terms and policies available on our website.

- Saved addresses;
- Order history;
- Return requests;

Where required, we may rely on consent for activities such as certain marketing communications, cookies, or similar technologies.
Where processing relies on consent, customers may withdraw that consent as permitted by applicable law.

13. How We Share Personal Information
YnTex does not need to sell personal information in order to operate its online store.

We aim to disclose only information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
Some third parties may act as processors on our behalf, while others may act as independent controllers of personal information under applicable law.
14. Shopify and E-Commerce Services
YnTex may use Shopify and associated technologies to operate portions of our online store and e-commerce services.
As part of providing these services, relevant customer and website information may be processed through the e-commerce infrastructure supporting YnTex.
Third-party platforms and services may have their own privacy policies governing how they independently process personal information.
15. Advertising and Analytics
YnTex may use analytics, advertising, and measurement technologies to understand website performance and promote our products.
Depending on our active integrations and the customer’s consent choices, these technologies may help us understand:
- Website visits;
- Product views;
- Shopping activity;
- Advertising interactions;
- Conversions;
- General audience behaviour; and
- Campaign performance.
Where required, advertising or analytics technologies will operate subject to applicable consent and privacy requirements.
Customers can use available privacy and cookie controls to manage applicable preferences.
16. Marketing Communications
Where permitted by law, YnTex may send customers information about products, promotions, offers, or other relevant updates.
Customers can unsubscribe from applicable electronic marketing communications using the unsubscribe mechanism included in those communications or through other preference controls made available by YnTex.
Withdrawing from marketing communications does not prevent YnTex from sending necessary transactional communications relating to orders, accounts, returns, refunds, security, or other services requested by the customer.
17. International Data Transfers
YnTex serves customers around the world.
As a result, personal information may sometimes need to be processed in countries outside the United Kingdom.
For example, international orders may require customer information to be provided to overseas courier, logistics, customs, payment, technology, or fulfilment providers.
Where UK data protection law requires safeguards for an international transfer of personal information, YnTex will seek to use an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism or other legally recognised safeguard.
18. Data Retention
YnTex retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and to satisfy applicable legal, accounting, tax, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution, and regulatory requirements.
Different categories of information may therefore be retained for different periods.
When information is no longer reasonably required, it may be deleted, anonymised, or otherwise handled in accordance with applicable requirements.
19. Data Security
YnTex takes reasonable organisational and technical measures designed to protect personal information against:
- Unauthorised access;
- Unauthorised disclosure;
- Accidental loss;
- Misuse;
- Alteration;
- Destruction; and
- Other inappropriate processing.
However, no internet transmission, website, database, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Customers should also take reasonable precautions to protect their devices, email accounts, passwords, and YnTex account credentials.
20. Customer Privacy Rights
Depending on applicable law and individual circumstances, customers may have rights regarding their personal information.
Under UK data protection law, these can include the right to:
- Request access to personal information;
- Request correction of inaccurate information;
- Request deletion of information in certain circumstances;
- Request restriction of processing in certain circumstances;
- Object to certain processing;
- Request data portability where applicable;
- Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent; and
- Raise a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority.
Not every right applies in every circumstance.
YnTex may need to verify a person’s identity before completing certain privacy requests to protect customer information from unauthorised disclosure or deletion.
21. Accessing, Correcting or Deleting Personal Information
Customers may be able to view or update certain information directly through their YnTex customer account.
Where an applicable privacy request cannot be completed through the customer’s account or website privacy controls, the customer may contact:
support@yntex.shop
The request should provide enough information for YnTex to understand and appropriately respond to the privacy request.
Additional identity verification may be required where reasonably necessary.
22. Account Security
Customers are responsible for taking reasonable measures to protect their YnTex account.
Customers should:
- Use secure account credentials;
- Avoid sharing account access;
- Protect access to their email account;
- Sign out when using shared devices; and
- Report suspected unauthorised account activity.
YnTex may take reasonable security measures where suspicious or unauthorised account activity is detected.
23. Children’s Privacy
YnTex does not intentionally seek to collect personal information from children where doing so would be prohibited by applicable law.
Where age-related consent or other protections apply, YnTex will seek to comply with applicable legal requirements.
Parents or guardians who reasonably believe personal information relating to a child has been provided improperly may contact YnTex regarding the matter.
24. Third-Party Websites and Services
The YnTex website may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites, payment providers, platforms, or other services.
When customers leave the YnTex website or independently interact with a third-party service, that organisation’s own privacy practices may apply.
YnTex is not responsible for the independent privacy practices of third-party websites or services that YnTex does not control.
Customers should review the applicable privacy information provided by those organisations where appropriate.
25. Business Transfers
If YnTex undergoes a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing transaction, sale of assets, or other business transfer, relevant personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction where permitted by law.
Any personal information involved will remain subject to applicable data protection requirements.
26. Legal Requirements
YnTex may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary to:
- Comply with applicable law;
- Respond to valid legal processes;
- Meet regulatory obligations;
- Respond to lawful requests from competent authorities;
- Protect the rights or property of YnTex;
- Protect customers or other individuals;
- Investigate fraud or unlawful activity; or

27. Changes to This Privacy Policy

When the policy is updated, the revised version may be published on www.yntex.shop together with an updated revision date.
Customers are encouraged to review the current Privacy Policy when necessary.
28. Privacy Questions and Requests
Customers can use available YnTex account and website privacy controls to manage supported privacy preferences and information where those functions are available.
