Privacy Policy – GymGearCo

SECTION 1 – WHAT DO WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION?

When you purchase something from GymGearCo, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect personal information such as your name, phone number, address, and email address.

When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s IP address, which helps us learn about your browser, device, and operating system to improve your shopping experience.

Email/SMS marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you updates about our store, promotions, new products, and more.

SECTION 2 – CONSENT

How do you get my consent?
When you provide personal information to complete a transaction (like placing an order, arranging a delivery, or returning a purchase), we imply your consent for that specific use only.

If we request your personal information for a secondary reason, such as marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent or give you the opportunity to opt out.

How do I withdraw my consent?
If you change your mind after opting in, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, or for the continued use or disclosure of your information, at any time by contacting us at sales@gymgearco.com or mailing us at:

SECTION 3 – DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if required by law or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SECTION 4 – SHOPIFY

Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides the e-commerce platform that enables us to sell our products and services to you.

Your data is stored through Shopify’s secure data storage, databases, and applications behind a firewall.

Payment:
If you use a direct payment gateway, Shopify stores your credit card data encrypted through PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). Your purchase transaction data is retained only as long as necessary to complete your transaction and is then deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to PCI-DSS standards set by the PCI Security Standards Council (founded by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover).

SECTION 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

We only share your personal information with third-party providers to the extent necessary for them to perform services for us (e.g., payment gateways, shipping services).

These third-party providers have their own privacy policies, and we recommend reading them to understand how your information is handled.

Please note: If you proceed with a transaction that involves services from a third party located in a different jurisdiction, your data may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction (e.g., U.S. Patriot Act).

Once you leave GymGearCo’s website or are redirected to a third-party app or site, our Privacy Policy no longer applies.

Links:
Our store may include links that direct you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites.

SECTION 6 – SECURITY

We take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to ensure your personal information is not lost, misused, accessed, altered, or destroyed.

All payment information is protected using SSL encryption and stored securely using AES-256 encryption. While no system is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and continuously enhance our security practices.
