Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 2023

At The Christmas Shop, we believe that creating magical holiday memories should include complete peace of mind about your privacy. Just as we carefully package each Christmas ornament to ensure it arrives safely at your doorstep, we treat your personal information with the same care and protection.
