2. What We Do NOT Collect
We do not directly collect, store, or process your credit card or debit card numbers.
All payments are processed securely through PayPal. Your full financial information is handled by PayPal and is never shared with us. PayPal acts as an independent data controller with respect to your payment information. For details, please refer to the PayPal Privacy Statement.
3. Sources of Personal Information
We may collect personal information from:
- Directly from you – when you place an order, create an account, or contact us
- Automatically – through cookies and similar technologies when you browse our site
- From service providers – such as PayPal for payment confirmation
- From third parties – as permitted by law
4. How We Use Your Personal Information
We use your personal information for the following purposes:
- To process and fulfill your orders (custom printed T-shirts and non-custom items)
- To communicate with you about orders, shipping, returns, or customer support
- To improve our website and shopping experience
- For fraud prevention and security
- To comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
We do not use your personal information for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
5. How We Disclose Your Personal Information
We may share your personal information with:
| Recipient Type | Purpose |
|---|---|
| PayPal | Payment processing (we do not store your card details) |
| Shipping carriers | To deliver your order (e.g., USPS, UPS, FedEx) |
| IT and service providers | Website hosting, email services, analytics |
| Legal authorities | When required by law or to protect our rights |
We do not share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
6. Your Privacy Rights (Including California Residents)
Depending on where you reside, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA):
| Right | Description |
|---|---|
| Right to Know | Request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you |
| Right to Delete | Request deletion of your personal information |
| Right to Correct | Request correction of inaccurate personal information |
| Right to Opt-Out | Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information (we do not sell or share) |
| Right to Non-Discrimination | We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your privacy rights |
For California residents: To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@z-axiswear.com with "CCPA Request" in the subject line. We will verify your identity before responding and will respond within 45 days as required by law.
We do not sell or share personal information of California residents, so no opt-out mechanism is required. However, we honor opt-out preference signals as described in Section 7 below.
7. Opt-Out Preference Signals (Global Privacy Control)
We recognize and honor opt-out preference signals sent by your browser or device, such as Global Privacy Control (GPC).
When we detect such a signal, it will be treated as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. Since we do not sell or share personal information, the signal will confirm that no selling or sharing occurs.
We provide a clear indication on our website when an opt-out preference signal has been processed (e.g., "Opt-Out Request Honored" or a visual indicator).
8. No Dark Patterns
We do not use "dark patterns" – manipulative or deceptive design techniques – to influence your privacy choices.
- Opt-out options are presented as clearly and prominently as opt-in options
- Consent mechanisms use plain, straightforward language
- You can withdraw consent at any time with the same ease as giving it
9. Third-Party Websites and Links
Our website may contain links to third-party websites (e.g., PayPal). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such sites. We encourage you to read their privacy policies.
10. Children's Data
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.
Consistent with US state privacy laws (including CCPA and COPPA), we do not sell or share personal information of consumers under 16 years of age. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.
11. Information Security and Retention
Security
We implement reasonable security measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.
