1) Information We Collect
Data you provide: When you create an account, place an order, contact support, or update your marketing preferences, you may provide information such as your name, email address, phone number, shipping address, and communication preferences.
Data collected automatically: When you visit our site, we may automatically collect your IP address, device type, browser information, pages viewed, and usage patterns through cookies and similar technologies.
Sensitive data: We do not store health information, government-issued identification numbers, or full payment card numbers. All payment processing is handled by a PCI-compliant processor, and card details never touch our servers.
2) How We Use Your Information

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals.
4) Data Security
We protect your data using TLS/SSL encryption in transit, a hardened cloud hosting environment, and strict access controls.
