Our Commitment to Your Privacy
At EASTON Shop (“bowsandgear.com”), we approach your data security with the same precision engineering that goes into our compound bows and carbon shafts. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website or make purchases from our global archery community (excluding Asia and certain remote locations).
Information We Collect
Like carefully selecting arrow components for optimal performance, we only collect necessary data:
- Transaction Data: Payment details (processed securely via Visa, MasterCard, JCB, or PayPal), billing/shipping addresses
- Account Information: Name, email, password (encrypted), purchase history
- Technical Data: IP address, browser type, device information
- Communication Records: Correspondence with our customer service team at [email protected]
How We Use Your Information
We handle your data with the same care as our tournament-grade equipment:
- Process orders with military-grade 256-bit SSL encryption
- Verify high-value compound bow purchases (additional inspection)
- Provide multi-currency support for international transactions
- Respond to inquiries faster than a well-tuned bow releases arrows
- Improve our product offerings for serious archers
Data Sharing & Disclosure
We maintain tighter control over your data than an Olympic archer’s grip:
- Payment Processors: Shared only with our PCI DSS compliant partners (Visa, MasterCard, JCB, PayPal)
- Shipping Providers: Necessary delivery information only
- Legal Requirements: When required by UK law (GB CH7B 8XS)
- Never Shared: Raw payment data or sensitive personal details
Data Storage & Security
Our security protocols match the reliability of our tournament equipment:
- All transactions protected with 256-bit SSL technology
- 3D Secure authentication for additional verification
- Regular security audits like bow performance checks
- Data retention only as long as legally required
Your Rights
You have more control than a precision bow’s cam system:
- Access, correct, or delete your personal data
- Object to processing or request data portability
- Withdraw consent (may affect service functionality)
- Lodge complaints with UK supervisory authorities
Contact our payment experts at [email protected] to exercise these rights.
Cookies & Tracking
We use tracking technologies with arrow-straight transparency:
- Essential Cookies: For checkout functionality and security
- Performance Cookies: To improve site speed and reliability
- Analytics Cookies: Understand how archers use our site
Manage preferences through your browser settings.
Policy Updates
We may update this policy as regularly as tuning a competition bow. Significant changes will be communicated to registered users.
