Welcome to Sports Surfing Sale! Just like we’re committed to providing you with the raddest surf gear, we’re equally dedicated to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit surfingstoreus.com.

1. Who We Are

Sports Surfing Sale is your go-to online shop for all things surfing, from boards to wetsuits and accessories. Based in Woodford, Vermont (8569 Vermont 9, US 05201), we serve surfers worldwide (except certain areas in Asia and remote locations).

2. Information We Collect

When you ride our digital waves, we may collect:

  • Personal Info: Name, email, shipping address, phone number when you make a purchase or create an account
  • Payment Details: Credit card info (processed securely but not stored), PayPal email
  • Surfing Preferences: Products you view, add to cart, or purchase
  • Technical Data: IP address, browser type, device info
  • Communication: Emails or messages you send our surf-savvy customer service team

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your data to:

  • Process orders faster than a perfect wave rolls in
  • Provide customer support from real surfers who use our gear
  • Improve our website and product selection
  • Send order updates and (if you opt in) surf-related promotions
  • Prefect fraud and ensure secure transactions
  • Comply with legal obligations (like customs forms for international orders)

4. Sharing Your Information

We only share your data when absolutely necessary:

  • Shipping Partners: To deliver your gear worldwide (except restricted areas)
  • Payment Processors: Like PayPal or credit card companies to complete transactions
  • Legal Requirements: If required by law or to protect our rights

We never sell your data to third-party advertisers.

5. Data Security

We protect your info with the same care we’d protect our favorite surf spot:

  • 256-bit SSL encryption for all transactions
  • Secure servers with limited access
  • Regular security assessments
  • We don’t store full credit card details after processing

6. International Data Transfers

Since we serve surfers globally (with some exceptions), your data may be transferred outside your home country. We ensure all transfers comply with applicable laws and maintain adequate protection.

7. Your Rights

You can:

  • Access, update, or delete your account info
  • Opt out of marketing emails (but we think you’ll want to hear about our new arrivals)
  • Request a copy of your personal data
  • Withdraw consent where applicable

Contact us at [email protected] to exercise these rights.

8. Cookies & Tracking

We use cookies (not the edible kind) to:

  • Remember your cart items between sessions
  • Understand how surfers use our site to improve it
  • Show relevant products (like suggesting wetsuits when you’re browsing cold-water gear)

You can manage cookies in your browser settings, but some features may not work as smoothly.

9. Children’s Privacy

While we sell kids’ swimwear and wetsuits, our website isn’t directed at children under 13. We don’t knowingly collect their data without parental consent.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as our business evolves. Significant changes will be posted on our site – we recommend checking back occasionally, just like you’d check surf conditions.
