Data Collection and Usage
We collect information you provide directly to us, such as your name, email, and mailing address for shipping. Financial transactions are handled by secure third-party processors, so we do not store your full payment details. We also automatically gather device data and use cookies to improve site performance. This data helps us process your orders, send transactional updates, and, with your consent, share newsletters. Our legal basis for processing includes fulfilling contracts, pursuing legitimate interests, or complying with the law. We only share data with essential partners like shipping carriers and email tools to serve you better.

We implement standard security measures to protect your data and retain it only as long as necessary for business or legal needs. You have the right to access, correct, or request the deletion of your personal information, and you can unsubscribe from marketing at any time. Our site is not directed toward children under 13. If you are visiting from outside the USA, note that your data may be transferred internationally. We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices.
