TARGETED ADVERTISING

We may use advertising and analytics services to understand how visitors interact with the store and to provide or measure advertisements.

Depending on applicable law, certain disclosures of information for targeted advertising may be considered “sharing,” “selling,” or targeted advertising even when no money is exchanged.

Where required, you may manage cookie choices through the privacy or cookie controls displayed on the store or use any data-sharing opt-out page made available through the store.

The store and its service providers may use cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to:

  • Operate the website and shopping cart
  • Remember customer preferences
  • Provide secure checkout and customer-account functions
  • Measure traffic and store performance
  • Prevent fraud
  • Support advertising and marketing

You can control cookies through your browser and, where available, the store’s privacy controls. Blocking certain cookies may prevent portions of the store from working properly.

MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS

We may send promotional emails only when permitted by law.

DATA RETENTION

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill orders, provide services, comply with legal and accounting requirements, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and enforce agreements.

Retention periods depend on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
