3. How & Why We Use Your Information

4. Who Might See Your Information
We share data only when necessary:
- Trusted Service Providers: Payment processors, shipping carriers, and email platforms (all under strict confidentiality agreements).
- Business Partners: If you’re an Authorized Customer, limited profile info may be visible to other Verified Customers to facilitate B2B transactions—you can opt out anytime.
- Legal Requirements: If required by law, subpoena, or to protect the safety of our users.

🔒 We do NOT sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party marketers.
5. How We Protect Your Data
Security isn’t a feature—it’s foundational.
- 🔐 Encryption: All sensitive data (like payment info) is transmitted via SSL/TLS encryption.
- 👥 Access Controls: Only authorized personnel with unique credentials can access PII—and only for legitimate business needs.
- 🔄 Regular Audits: We test our systems, update protocols, and train our team on privacy best practices.
- 🗄️ Secure Storage: Data is hosted on protected servers with firewall protection and intrusion monitoring.
Note: No online transmission is 100% secure. While we use commercially reasonable safeguards, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
