PRIVACY POLICY

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to Freedom Raised. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website, place an order, or interact with our services.

By using our website, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

• Personal Information: Name, email address, phone number, shipping address, and billing address
• Order Information: Products purchased, order history, and payment confirmation
• Payment Information: Processed securely through third-party payment providers (Stripe, PayPal) — we do not store your card details
• Device Information: IP address, browser type, device type, and operating system
• Usage Information: Pages visited, time spent on our site, and referral sources

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To process and fulfill your orders
• To send order confirmations, shipping updates, and tracking information
• To respond to your questions and customer service requests
• To send promotional emails and offers (only with your consent)
• To improve our website, products, and services

COMMENTS & USER CONTENT

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

MEDIA UPLOADS

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

COOKIES & TRACKING

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select "Remember Me", your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

SHARING YOUR INFORMATION

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your information with:

• Shipping carriers (USPS, UPS, FedEx) to deliver your orders
• Payment processors (Stripe, PayPal) to complete transactions
• Email service providers to send order notifications and newsletters
• Analytics providers (Google Analytics) to improve our website
• Legal authorities when required by law

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

EMBEDDED CONTENT FROM OTHER WEBSITES

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

HOW LONG WE RETAIN YOUR DATA

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Order information is retained for legal and accounting purposes as required by law.

YOUR RIGHTS OVER YOUR DATA

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To exercise these rights, contact us at support@freedomraised.com.

DATA SECURITY

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information. All payment transactions are encrypted using SSL technology. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

Our website is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately.

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
