4) Cookies & Tracking Technologies
We use cookies/pixels to:

Payments are processed by third-party providers (e.g., Stripe, PayPal, Shop Pay, Apple Pay, etc.). These providers handle your payment information subject to their own privacy policies. We receive confirmation of payment status but do not store full payment card details.

We do not sell your personal information for money. Some sharing for ads/analytics may be considered “sharing” or “targeted advertising” under certain state laws (see “Your Privacy Rights”).
7) Data Retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described above—typically tied to the life of your account, the order lifecycle, or legal requirements (e.g., tax, accounting, fraud prevention).
