We collect only the information needed to keep your cart, take payment, ship your seasoning, and help with your order. This policy explains the basics in plain language.
01Information we collect
We collect the information needed to run the store and complete orders.
- Contact, billing, shipping, and order details that you provide at checkout.
- Your destination ZIP code and shipping choice when you request delivery rates.
- Cart contents saved in your browser so your cart does not disappear between visits.
- Basic device, IP address, and request information that our website host and security providers may process when you use the site.
Add anything introduced before launch, such as a contact form, mailing list, analytics, advertising, or customer accounts. None of those tools currently appears in the site code.
02How we use it
- Process payments and fulfill, ship, and support orders.
- Calculate shipping choices and remember cart contents.
- Answer questions and handle returns or order problems.
- Protect and maintain the website, prevent fraud, and meet tax, accounting, or legal requirements.
Confirm whether the client plans to send marketing email or text messages. If so, add the actual signup and unsubscribe process.
03Who helps us operate the store
Stripe processes checkout and payments. The United States Postal Service and any other selected carriers help calculate rates and deliver orders. Website hosting, fulfillment, bookkeeping, security, and professional service providers may handle limited information when needed to do their jobs. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect customers and the business.
Confirm the final host, carriers, fulfillment service, email service, and other vendors. The current code does not show sales of personal information or targeted advertising.
04Cookies, storage, and security
The site uses browser local storage to remember your cart. Stripe and other essential providers may use cookies or similar tools to provide checkout and security. You can clear these through your browser, although doing so may remove your cart. We use reasonable safeguards, but no online system is completely secure.
Run a cookie check on the final production site and add a consent banner only if nonessential analytics or advertising tools require one.
05Keeping and managing information
We keep information only as long as reasonably needed to complete orders, support customers, prevent fraud, and meet business or legal recordkeeping requirements. Depending on where you live, you may be able to ask us to access, correct, or delete certain personal information. We will review verified requests under applicable law.
Approve the actual order and customer-service retention periods and add an email address for privacy requests.
06Children
This general-audience store is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Confirm the minimum age for placing an order.
07Changes and contact
We may update this policy when the store or our practices change. The current version and effective date will be posted here.
