Welcome to Surfcorner Store (“we,” “us,” or “our”). Just as we carefully select our surf gear, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit surfcornerstoreonline.com (the “Site”). By using our Site, you’re agreeing to the terms outlined below – think of it like the rules of the surf, but for your data.
1. Information We Collect
When you ride the digital waves with us, we may collect:
- Personal Information: Your name, email address, shipping address, and payment details when you make a purchase – just what we need to get your gear to you safely.
- Order Details: What boards, wetsuits, or accessories you’re buying (because we know you’re stoked about them too).
- Technical Data: Your IP address, browser type, and device information – like checking the surf conditions before you paddle out.
- Usage Data: How you navigate our Site, which products you view, and what makes you click – helping us improve your shopping experience.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your data to make your experience as smooth as a glassy wave:
- Process your orders and ship your surf gear worldwide (except where the waves don’t reach – Asia and some remote regions)
- Communicate with you about your orders, like shipping updates (because we know you’re eager to hit the waves)
- Improve our products and website – always striving to be better, like your surfing skills
- Prevent fraud and keep your information secure – no wipeouts here
- Send you relevant offers if you opt-in (never spam – we hate that as much as a crowded lineup)
3. Data Sharing & Disclosure
We treat your data like we treat our boards – with care and only share when necessary:
- Service Providers: We work with trusted partners for payment processing, shipping, and website operations – all carefully vetted like our surfboard materials.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law – only when absolutely necessary, like following surf etiquette.
- Business Transfers: If Surfcorner Store is ever acquired (though we’re happy riding our own wave), customer information may be transferred.
We never sell your personal information to third parties.
4. Data Storage & Security
We protect your data like premium boardbag protects your surfboard:
- All transactions are encrypted with industry-standard SSL technology (256-bit encryption – serious protection)
- We don’t store your full payment details on our servers – safer than leaving your board on the beach
- Regular security audits and monitoring – like checking your gear before a big session
- Data is stored on secure servers with limited access – only our core crew gets near it
5. Your Rights
You’re the captain of your data ship:
- Access: Request what information we have about you
- Correction: Update inaccurate information (we want your gear to reach you)
- Deletion: Request we delete your personal data (though we may need to keep some for legal reasons)
- Opt-Out: Unsubscribe from marketing emails anytime (no hard feelings)
To exercise these rights, email us at [email protected] – we’re as responsive as a well-tuned funboard!
6. Cookies & Tracking
Our Site uses cookies – not the edible kind, but digital ones that help:
- Remember your preferences (like your favorite surf spot)
- Analyze Site traffic to improve your experience (finding the sweet spot)
- Show relevant products (because we know you’re eyeing those new board shorts)
You can manage cookies in your browser settings – but disabling them might make your experience less smooth, like surfing without wax.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy occasionally – just like we update our product lineup. We’ll post changes here, and if significant, we’ll email you (if you’re subscribed). The current version always applies, like the surf conditions when you paddle out.
