Afterstate (“we”, “us”, “our”) is the trading name of KKOSTOV LTD, registered at 167-169 Great Portland Street, 5th Floor, London, W1W 5PF, United Kingdom. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect personal data when you use afterstate.store and related services.

1. Who we are

Controller: KKOSTOV LTD (company number 14964341), registered at 167-169 Great Portland Street, 5th Floor, London, W1W 5PF, United Kingdom. Contact: hello@afterstate.store.

2. Data we collect

  • Order & account data: name, email, shipping/billing address, phone, order history, payment status (payment card details are processed by Shopify / payment providers — we do not store full card numbers).
  • Communications: messages you send us, newsletter preferences.
  • Technical data: IP address, device/browser type, pages viewed, approximate location, cookies and similar technologies (subject to your consent where required).
  • Marketing data: email engagement if you subscribe.

3. Why we use your data

  • To process and deliver orders (contract).
  • To provide customer support (legitimate interests / contract).
  • To send transactional emails (order, shipping, returns).
  • To send marketing emails if you opt in (consent — you can unsubscribe anytime).
  • To improve the storefront, prevent fraud, and keep the site secure (legitimate interests).
  • To meet legal and tax obligations.

4. Sharing

We share data with service providers who help us run the shop, including Shopify, payment processors, shipping carriers, email tools, and analytics providers — only as needed to provide the service. We do not sell your personal data.

5. International transfers

Some providers may process data outside the UK/EEA. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards (e.g. standard contractual clauses) offered by those providers.

6. Retention

We keep order and account records as long as needed for legal, tax, and dispute purposes, then delete or anonymise them. Marketing contacts are kept until you unsubscribe or we delete inactive lists.

7. Your rights (UK GDPR / GDPR)

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing, and to data portability. You may also withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. Contact hello@afterstate.store. You can complain to the UK ICO (ico.org.uk) or your local EU supervisory authority.

8. Cookies

We use essential cookies to run the cart and checkout, and optional analytics/marketing cookies where you consent. You can change preferences via our cookie banner (where shown) or browser settings.

9. Children

Our shop is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect their data.

10. Updates

We may update this policy. The “Last updated” date above will change when we do. Material changes may be highlighted on the site.
