Sharing & Service Providers
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with providers that help us run the store:

Cookies & Analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies for cart functionality, fraud prevention, and Google Analytics 4. You can disable cookies in your browser, but parts of the checkout may not work.
Email Marketing
We send marketing emails only to people who sign up. Every email includes a one-click unsubscribe link, or you can visit our unsubscribe page anytime.
Data Retention
We retain order and customer records for as long as needed to provide support, honor warranties, and meet tax/accounting obligations (typically 7 years). Newsletter subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information, and to opt out of marketing. To make a request, email paidforfreedom1@gmail.com from the address on file. We'll respond within 30 days.
Children's Privacy
Our site is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Minors may only use the site or make purchases with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
Payments and account data run on Shopify's PCI-DSS compliant infrastructure with TLS encryption. No system is perfectly secure, but we use reasonable safeguards to protect your information.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Effective" date at the top reflects the latest revision. Material changes will be posted on this page.
