What data we collect
When you place an order
We collect your name, email address, and phone number to fulfil your order and contact you about delivery. Order details (items, sizes, total) are stored so we can track your purchase.
When you create an account

Cookies
We use a single authentication session cookie if you sign in. We do not use third-party advertising cookies. The session cookie is HttpOnly and expires after 30 days.
