Age Restriction
This website is intended solely for individuals who are 21 years of age or older. We use a cookie to remember your age verification status for 30 days. If you are under 21, you are not permitted to access this site.
Information We Collect
When you place an order or create an account, we collect your name, email address, shipping address, and phone number. When you visit our site, we automatically collect your IP address, browser type, and pages visited through cookies and standard server logs. If you leave a comment, we also collect the data shown in the comment form along with your IP address and browser user agent to help with spam detection.
Comments & Profile Pictures
If you leave a comment, an anonymized string created from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible publicly alongside your comment.
Media Uploads
If you upload images to the site, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors may be able to download and extract any location data from images you upload.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information to process and fulfill orders, send order confirmations and shipping updates, respond to customer service inquiries, and improve our website.
Payment Information
We do not store your payment card details on our servers. All payments are processed securely by third-party payment processors. We only receive confirmation that a transaction was completed.
Cookies
We use cookies to remember your age verification, maintain your shopping cart, keep you logged in, and analyze site traffic. If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience — these last one year. Login cookies last two days, and screen preference cookies last one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some site features may not work properly.
Embedded Content
Pages on this site may include embedded content such as videos or images. Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited those sites directly and may collect data, use cookies, or track your interaction with it.
Information Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with third parties necessary to operate our business, including shipping carriers and payment processors. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We may also disclose information if required by law.
Data Retention
We retain order and account information for as long as your account is active or as needed to fulfill legal and business obligations. Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically. For registered users, personal information is stored in your profile and can be seen, edited, or deleted by you at any time — except your username cannot be changed.
Your Rights
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase your personal data, except for data we are legally required to keep. To make a request, contact us below and we will respond within 30 days.
