We use advertising and tracking technologies to help us understand how visitors interact with our website, advertise our products, measure advertising performance, and improve our marketing.

Meta

We use Meta advertising technologies, which may include the Meta Pixel and Meta Conversions API.

These advertising technologies may involve cookies, pixels, identifiers, device information, IP addresses, browsing activity, purchase information, and other information associated with your interactions with our website.

We may also use other advertising, analytics, or technology providers in the future.

Some U.S. state privacy laws may characterize certain disclosures of personal information to advertising partners as a “sale,” “sharing,” or processing for purposes of “targeted advertising,” even when money is not exchanged.

Where applicable, you may opt out of certain targeted advertising, sale, or sharing activities through our Your Privacy Choices page or through an applicable privacy preference signal such as Global Privacy Control.

For additional information about cookies and similar technologies, please see our Cookies Policy.

5. Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising

We do not sell personal information for money in the traditional sense.

However, our use of advertising technologies, including the Meta Pixel, Meta Conversions API, TikTok Pixel, and TikTok Events API, may involve disclosures of personal information that are considered a “sale,” “sharing,” or processing for purposes of “targeted advertising” under certain U.S. state privacy laws.

These activities may include using information about your interactions with our website to help us deliver, personalize, or measure advertisements on third-party platforms.

Where required by applicable law, you may opt out of certain activities through our Your Privacy Choices page.

Our website may also recognize the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. Where required by applicable law, we will process a valid GPC signal as a request to opt out of certain activities, including sale, sharing, or targeted advertising.

We may use your email address to communicate with you about:

  • Orders

  • Purchases

  • Shipping

  • Customer service

  • Account or transaction-related matters

If you separately subscribe to promotional email communications, we may also use your email address to send newsletters, promotions, product announcements, and other marketing communications.

You may unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions contained in those communications.

Unsubscribing from promotional emails will not prevent us from sending transactional or service-related communications that are necessary to complete an order or provide services to you.

7. SMS and Text Messaging

If you provide your mobile phone number and consent to receive SMS or text messages from us, we may use your phone number to send marketing or other permitted text messages in accordance with your consent and applicable law.

Message frequency may vary.

You can opt out of marketing text messages at any time by following the instructions provided in the applicable text messages, such as replying STOP.

After you opt out, you may receive a confirmation message, and you will no longer receive marketing text messages from us unless you provide consent again.

Opting out of marketing text messages will not prevent us from contacting you through other channels regarding transactions, orders, customer service matters, or other communications that we are legally permitted or required to send.

Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and plan.

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our website, remember preferences, understand website usage, provide analytics, support advertising, measure advertising performance, and improve our services.

These technologies may be provided by us or by third parties, including advertising and analytics providers.

You will not be discriminated against for exercising privacy rights provided by applicable law.

10. Global Privacy Control

Our website may recognize the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) signal.

Where required by applicable law, if we detect a GPC signal, we will treat it as a request to opt out of certain activities, including the sale or sharing of personal information or targeted advertising, as required by the law applicable to you.

The effect of a GPC signal may depend on your location, browser, device, and the applicable law.

12. Data Security

We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee the absolute security of your personal information.

13. Third-Party Websites and Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, applications, platforms, or services.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties that we do not control. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing them with personal information.
