We use personal information to:
Provide and operate the Site and its features
Process and fulfill orders, including payment processing, shipping, returns, and exchanges
Communicate with you about purchases, shipping updates, support requests, and administrative messages
Prevent fraud and secure the Site, including monitoring for suspicious activity

Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms - Cookies and tracking technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, remember preferences, understand how visitors use the Site, and improve marketing effectiveness.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you disable cookies, some features of the Site may not function properly.
Do Not Track: Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” signal. Because there is no consistent industry standard for responding, we do not currently respond to these signals. - How we share your information
We may share personal information with:
Service providers that help us run our business (e.g., payment processors, hosting, analytics, email delivery, customer support tools, fraud prevention)
Shipping carriers and fulfillment partners to deliver your orders
Marketing partners if you choose to receive marketing or if we use advertising tools (you may have choices as described below)
Professional advisors such as lawyers, accountants, and insurers
Authorities or third parties when required by law, to respond to lawful requests, or to protect our rights and the safety of others
Business transfers if we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of all or part of our business
We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary sense. Some privacy laws define “sale” broadly to include certain advertising-related sharing; see “Your privacy rights” below. - Payment processing
Payments are processed by third-party payment processors. Your payment details are collected and processed directly by those providers under their privacy policies. We may receive limited information (such as the last four digits of your card, payment status, and transaction identifiers) to manage orders, refunds, and support. - Email and SMS marketing
If you opt in, we may send you marketing emails and/or text messages. You can unsubscribe at any time:
Email: use the unsubscribe link in the email
SMS: reply STOP (or follow the instructions in the message)
Message and data rates may apply for SMS. Consent to receive marketing texts is not a condition of purchase. - Data retention
We retain personal information as long as necessary to provide the Site and services, complete transactions, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods vary depending on the type of information and why we collected it. - Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No security system is perfect, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. - Children’s privacy
The Site is not intended for children under 13 (or under 16 in certain jurisdictions). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it. - Your privacy rights

Accessing the personal information we have about you
Correcting inaccurate information
Deleting personal information
Receiving a copy of your information (data portability)
Opting out of certain uses, such as targeted advertising (where applicable)

California (CCPA/CPRA) notice (if applicable): California residents may have additional rights, including the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (as those terms are defined by California law). If we engage in advertising practices that qualify as “sharing,” you may opt out by using our cookie preferences tool (if available) or by contacting us. - International visitors
If you access the Site from outside the United States, your information may be processed and stored in the United States or other locations where our service providers operate. Those locations may have different data protection laws than your home jurisdiction. - Changes to this Privacy Policy
