4. Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies for: session management (Shopify), analytics (Google Analytics), and abuse prevention. You can disable cookies in your browser, but parts of the site (cart, checkout) may not function correctly.
5. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (including California under the CCPA/CPRA and the EU/UK under GDPR), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data, and to opt out of certain processing. To exercise these rights, use the contact form. We may request information to verify your identity before responding.

We keep order records for the periods required by applicable tax and consumer-protection laws. Honor Roll entries remain public until you request removal. Contact-form submissions are kept for a reasonable period needed to respond and document the interaction.
7. Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards. Payments are processed by Shopify and we do not store full card numbers on our servers. No system is perfectly secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
