How We Use Your Information

Before or at the time of collecting personal information, we identify the purposes for which it is being collected. We collect and use personal information solely to fulfill those purposes, unless we obtain your consent for other uses or as required by law. Specifally, we may use your information to:

How We Protect Your Information

We protect personal information using reasonable security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the data. These measures are designed to guard against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. Our security practices include:

Secure storage of customer and order data
Use of encrypted payment processing through trusted third-party providers — we do not store full payment card numbers on our systems
Access to personal information is limited to authorized personnel only, and only to the extent necessary to carry out their role
Regular review and updates of our security procedures as needed

Please be aware that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the unlikely event of a data breach, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law.

Retention of Personal Information

We will only retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected — including processing your orders, providing consulting services, and meeting any legal or regulatory requirements. Once your information is no longer needed, it will be securely deleted or anonymized.

For example, order records may be retained for a period necessary to support returns, refunds, and compliance with tax and accounting requirements, but will not be kept beyond what is reasonably necessary.
