4. Cookies, Pixels, and Tracking Opt-Outs
We utilize session cookies, analytical trackers, and advertising pixels to remember shopping cart selections, analyze aggregate traffic, and serve relevant promotional campaigns. You can adjust your browser settings to decline cookies or manage your ad preferences directly through standard opt-out portals (such as the Digital Advertising Alliance or Network Advertising Initiative).

5. Data Retention and Security
We retain transaction records and order history for standard accounting, tax, and fulfillment purposes (typically up to 7 years) or as required by applicable regulations. We employ industry-standard technical safeguards to protect your personal data, though no electronic transmission over the internet can be guaranteed 100% secure.
