Please be formally advised that The Designers Net (TDN) is an entirely independent digital platform and curated luxury archival proxy.

The Designers Net (operated systematically under the corporate mainframes and fiscal holding of Qfeng BV) operates this store, infrastructural node, and digital website, encompassing all related information, content, data streams, features, procurement tools, and curated services (the "Services"). This Privacy Policy describes how we securely collect, process, use, and legally disclose your personal and structural metadata information when you execute transactions via our node or otherwise communicate with us. If a structural conflict emerges between our Terms of Service (including our Refund Policy) and this Privacy Policy, this Privacy Policy systematically controls with respect to the lawful collection, digital processing, forensic mitigation, and disclosure of your personal datasets.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using and accessing any of the Services, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy and understand the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Personal Information We Collect or Process

When we use the term "personal information," we are referring to information that identifies or can reasonably be linked to you or another person. Personal information does not include information that is collected anonymously or that has been de-identified, so that it cannot identify or be reasonably linked to you. We may collect or process the following specific, multi-layered categories of personal information, including inferences drawn from this personal information, depending on how you interact with the Services, where you live, and as permitted or required by applicable law:

  • Contact details including your name, address, billing address, shipping address, phone number, and email address.
  • Financial information including credit card, debit card, and financial account numbers, payment card information, financial account information, transaction details, form of payment, payment confirmation, and other corresponding cross-border payment details.
  • Account information including your username, password, security questions, preferences, and internal security settings.
  • Transaction & Sourcing information including the items you view, put in your cart, add to your wishlist, or purchase, return, exchange, or cancel via our Sourcing Service Agency Contract, alongside your historical past transactions data.
  • Communications & Video Metadata including the information you include in communications with us (for example, when sending a customer support inquiry), alongside mandatory, continuous 4K resolution at a 60 fps rate unboxing video evidence submitted to our node under verified return protocols.
  • Device & Advanced Structural Fingerprint information including technical information about your device, browser, or network connection, your active IP address routing vectors, canvas fingerprinting variables, and other unique device identifiers captured automatically at the micro-moment of order placement.
  • Usage information including raw telemetry information regarding your interaction with the Services, including how, when, and where you interact with, navigate, or dwell upon the Services.

Personal Information Sources & Automated Cookie Collection

We systematically harvest personal and structural dataset information from the following authorized channels:

  • Direct Client Submissions: Information you voluntarily provide when registering an account, executing transactions under a Sourcing Service Agency Contract, or engaging in communications with our operations node.
  • Automatically through the Services (Cookies & Tracking Telemetry): Data captured instantly from your device when you navigate our platform, via the utilization of cookies, tracking pixels, server-side data logs, and highest-tier Maximum Data Sharing (Conversions API) direct server-to-server connection mainframes. These automated tracking vectors are engineered solely to secure transaction authentication and mitigate financial infrastructure latency.
  • Service Providers & Customs Entities: Dataset infrastructure and forensic profiles collected or processed on our behalf when we engage them to enable certain fulfillment technologies, including cross-border logistics carriers (such as UPS) and sovereign customs border clearance nodes.
  • From our partners or other third parties.

How We Use Your Personal Information

Depending on how you interact with us or which of the Services you use, we may use personal information for the following purposes:

  • Provide, Tailor, and Improve the Services: We use your personal information to perform our contract with you, to process your payments, to fulfill your orders, to remember your preferences and items you are interested in, to send notifications to you related to your account, to process purchases, returns, exchanges, or other transactions under your Sourcing Service Agency Contract, to arrange for shipping, to facilitate return loops, to enable you to post reviews, and to better tailor and improve the Services.
  • Marketing and Advertising: We use your personal information for marketing and promotional purposes, such as to send promotional communications by email, text message, or postal mail, and to show you online advertisements on the Services or other websites, based on your activity on the Services.
  • Security and Fraud Prevention: We use your personal information to authenticate your account, to provide a secure payment and shopping experience, detect, investigate or take action regarding possible fraudulent, illegal, unsafe, or malicious activity, protect public safety, and to secure our services.
  • Sovereign Legal Action & Criminal Prosecution Reservation: We systematically utilize your aggregated digital data architecture—including device environment fingerprints, IP data vectors, and server clickstreams—combined with the physical evidence gathered directly from returned container assets (encompassing box tape fibers and original fingerprint metadata). In the event of fraudulent return claims, counterfeit merchandise trafficking, superfake swaps, or advanced cyber-theft, TDN explicitly retains the full legal authority to submit these structural metadata logs and physical evidence to competent EU authorities, Netherlands local judicial departments, and international cross-border law enforcement as definitive evidence for legal prosecution.
  • Communicating with You: We use your personal information to provide you with customer support, to be responsive to you, to provide effective services to you, and to maintain our business relationship with you.

How We Disclose Personal Information

In certain circumstances, we may disclose your personal information to third parties for legitimate purposes subject to this Privacy Policy. Such circumstances may include:

  • With Shopify, vendors, and other third parties who perform services on our behalf (e.g., IT management, payment processing, data analytics, customer support, cloud storage, fulfillment, and shipping such as UPS to execute customs clearance and reverse brokerage mandates).
  • With business and marketing partners to provide marketing services and advertise to you. For example, we use Shopify to support personalized advertising with third-party services. Our partners use your information in accordance with their own privacy notices. Depending on where you reside, you may have a right to direct us not to share information about you to show you targeted advertisements, which you can exercise here.
  • When you direct, request, or otherwise consent to our disclosure of certain information to third parties, such as to ship you products or through your use of social media widgets or login integrations.
  • Within our corporate group affiliates, or in connection with valid legal processes—including subpoenas, search warrants, civil discovery, or official adversarial legal proceedings to protect or defend our sovereign corporate rights, terms of service, and transactional assets.

Relationship with Shopify (Our Certified Infrastructure Mainframe)

Unlike traditional self-built website models that operate under private, unverified server environments, the Services provided by TDN are securely hosted and engineered directly by Shopify—the world’s most trusted global cloud infrastructure and transactional database mainframe. Shopify serves as the designated baseline framework utilized by over 90% of the world's premium enterprise brand websites to ensure banking-level financial encryption and data security. 

Shopify automatically collects and processes specific personal and meta-informational parameters regarding your access to and functional use of the Services solely to provide, operate, and fortify this underlying secure environment for you. Information you securely submit to the Services will be systematically transmitted to and processed within Shopify’s protected server mainframes, as well as verified third-party technical nodes that may be physically located in countries other than where you reside, in order to systematically deliver and sharpen the baseline operations.

In addition, to help protect, grow, and improve our business, we use certain Shopify enhanced features that incorporate data and information obtained from your interactions with our Store, along with other merchants and with Shopify. To provide these enhanced features, Shopify may make use of personal information collected about your interactions with our store, along with other merchants, and with Shopify. In these circumstances, Shopify is responsible for the processing of your personal information, including for responding to your requests to exercise your rights over use of your personal information for these purposes. To learn more about how Shopify uses your personal information and any rights you may have, you can visit the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy. Depending on where you live, you may exercise certain rights with respect to your personal information here Shopify Privacy Portal Link.


Third Party Websites and Links
The Services may provide links to websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow links to sites not affiliated or controlled by us, you should review their privacy and security policies and other terms and conditions. We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy or security of such sites, including the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information found on these sites. Information you provide on public or semi-public venues, including information you share on third-party social networking platforms may also be viewable by other users of the Services and/or users of those third-party platforms without limitation as to its use by us or by a third party. Our inclusion of such links does not, by itself, imply any endorsement of the content on such platforms or of their owners or operators, except as disclosed on the Services.

Children's Data
The Services are not intended to be used by children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information about children under the age of majority in your jurisdiction. If you are the parent or guardian of a child who has provided us with their personal information, you may contact us using the contact details set out below to request that it be deleted. As of the Effective Date of this Privacy Policy, we do not have actual knowledge that we "share" or "sell" (as those terms are defined in applicable law) personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.

Security and Retention of Your Information
While we employ industry-standard security measures to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee absolute security against all threats, especially regarding information in transit. We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, such as servicing your account, legal compliance, or resolving disputes. You are responsible for ensuring the security of your credentials and avoiding the transmission of sensitive data through unsecure channels.

International Data Transfers

If we transfer your personal information out of the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, we will rely on recognized transfer mechanisms like the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), or any equivalent contracts issued by the relevant competent authority of the UK, as relevant, unless the data transfer is to a country that has been determined to provide an adequate level of protection.

Changes to This Privacy Policy
