Privacy Policy

Section 1 - What Do We Do With Your Information?

When you purchase something from our site, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you provide, such as your name, address, and email address.

When you browse our site, we also automatically receive your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.

With your permission, we may send you emails about our site, new products, and other updates.

Section 2 - Consent

How do you get my consent?
When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for delivery, or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting and using it for that specific reason only.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your express consent or provide you with an opportunity to decline.

How do I withdraw my consent?
If, after you opt in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, or for the continued collection, use, or disclosure of your information, at any time by using our "Contact Us" page.

Section 3 - Disclosure

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

Section 4 - Warhead

Our store is hosted on Warhead Inc. They provide us with the online website platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.

Your data is stored through Warhead’s data storage, databases, and the general Warhead application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.

Payment:
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Warhead stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as necessary to complete your transaction. Once completed, your transaction information is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to PCI-DSS standards, which are managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.

PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

Section 5 - Third-Party Services

In general, third-party providers used by us will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we must provide for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies to understand how your personal information will be handled by them.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities in a jurisdiction different from yours or ours. If you proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

For example, if you are in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway in the United States, your personal information may be subject to disclosure under U.S. legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

Links:
When you click on links in our store, they may direct you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.

Section 6 - Security

To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed.

If you provide us with your credit card information, it is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and stored with AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional industry standards.

Section 8 - Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here so you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we use and/or disclose it.

Our site is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without parental consent.


WarHead QUESTIONS: How long can personal data be stored (beyond payment data) and the criteria for determining retention periods? Is there any way to disclose a link  for the full cookie policy and how clinets can manage them? If a sale comes through for California, can details for GDPR (e.g., data portability rights, right to be forgotten) and CCPA (e.g., selling data, requesting disclosure of data sold) be added?
