- Commercial Information, including payment details (e.g., credit card number, billing address) processed through third-party providers for purchases.

2. How We Collect Information

- Automatically: Via cookies and similar technologies. Our session-based cookies enhance functionality (e.g., remembering preferences) and expire at the end of your browsing session.
- From third parties: Service providers such as Google Analytics for usage analytics and payment processors (e.g., Stripe or PayPal), subject to their own privacy policies.
We do not engage in targeted advertising, cross-context behavioral advertising, or automated profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

4. How We Share or Disclose Your Information
We do not sell your personal information, nor do we “share” it for targeted advertising or cross-context behavioral advertising (as defined under CCPA and similar state laws).
We may disclose information:
- To service providers (e.g., hosting, analytics, or payment processors) under strict confidentiality agreements who perform services on our behalf.
- For legal or safety reasons: To comply with applicable laws, respond to lawful requests, subpoenas, or to protect rights, property, or safety.

5. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy or as required by law (e.g., tax or accounting obligations). When no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize the data.
6. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, including SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit and access controls. Payment information is handled by third-party processors. While we strive to protect your information, no system is completely secure. You provide information at your own risk.
We comply with the Alabama Data Breach Notification Act. If a breach of sensitive personally identifying information occurs and is reasonably likely to cause substantial harm, we will notify affected Alabama residents and the Alabama Attorney General as required by law (generally within 45 days).

- Right to know/access what personal information we have collected about you.
- Right to correct inaccurate personal information.
- Right to delete your personal information (subject to legal exceptions).
- Right to opt out of any future sale or sharing of personal information (not applicable, as we do not sell or share for advertising).
