1. Introduction

TRAILPEAKIS LLC ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you visit our website, browse our camping and hiking products, place an order, or contact our customer service team.

By using our website, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with our practices, please discontinue using the website.

2. Information We Collect

We may collect the following categories of information when you interact with our website:

Payment Information: Payments are processed through third-party payment service providers. We may receive limited payment-related information, such as transaction confirmations and payment status.

Communication Information: We may retain information you provide when contacting us about products, orders, returns, or other customer service matters.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for legitimate business purposes, including:

  • Processing and fulfilling orders for camping, hiking, and outdoor products.

  • Arranging shipping, delivery, returns, and exchanges.

  • Processing payments and maintaining transaction records.

  • Responding to customer inquiries and providing customer support.

  • Complying with applicable legal, accounting, tax, and regulatory requirements.

  • Sending promotional communications where permitted by law and subject to applicable consent and opt-out requirements.

We do not use personal information for purposes materially different from those described in this policy without providing any notice or obtaining consent where required by applicable law.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to support essential website functions, remember preferences, analyze website performance, and improve the user experience.

Cookies may include:

You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, our website's cookie preference controls. Disabling certain cookies may affect the availability or functionality of some website features.

Where required by law, we will obtain consent before using non-essential cookies or similar technologies.

5. How We Share Your Information

We may share personal information with trusted third parties when reasonably necessary to operate our business and provide our services, including:

  • Government Authorities and Legal Entities: When disclosure is required by law, legal process, or to protect our rights, customers, and business operations.

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money. Certain disclosures to advertising or analytics partners may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" under some U.S. state privacy laws. Where applicable, we will honor relevant opt-out rights and provide the required controls.

Third-party service providers are expected to handle personal information in accordance with their contractual obligations and applicable legal requirements.

6. Payment Security

Payments made through our website may be processed by third-party payment service providers. These providers handle payment information in accordance with their own privacy policies and security practices.

We take reasonable steps to work with reputable payment providers and protect transaction-related information. However, no method of electronic transmission or data storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Customers should avoid sending full payment card numbers, security codes, or other sensitive payment credentials through ordinary email or unsecured communication channels.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including order fulfillment, customer service, dispute resolution, fraud prevention, accounting, tax compliance, and legal obligations.

The retention period depends on the type of information, the nature of the relevant transaction, and applicable legal requirements. When information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to delete it, anonymize it, or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable law.

8. Data Security

TRAILPEAKIS LLC takes reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, and disclosure.

These measures may include access restrictions, security monitoring, and the use of appropriate third-party service providers.

Although we work to safeguard your information, no website, online transaction, or electronic storage system is entirely risk-free. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Children's Privacy

Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 without the legally required parental consent.

If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 in a manner that violates applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.

Parents or legal guardians who believe that a child has provided personal information to us may contact us using the information provided below.

12. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, payment services, shipping services, or other external platforms. These third parties operate independently and may maintain their own privacy policies and data handling practices.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of websites that we do not operate. We encourage you to review the relevant privacy policies before providing personal information to any third party.

13. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting. Because there is no universally accepted standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to all Do Not Track requests.

Where required by applicable law, we will honor recognized opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, for the activities and purposes covered by that law.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
