who we are
Bearsnack is operated by Softseas Digital LLC, a Maryland limited liability company. This policy explains how we handle personal information when you visit or buy from iamabearsnack.com. Purchases made through Etsy are also subject to Etsy’s separate privacy practices.
information we collect
- Contact and order information: name, email address, telephone number when provided, shipping and billing details, items ordered, and customer-service messages.
- Account information: sign-in and account details when you create a store account.
- Payment information: payment status and limited transaction details. Full payment-card details are handled by the payment provider shown at checkout rather than stored directly by Bearsnack.
- Device and usage information: IP address, browser and device details, pages viewed, referring pages, approximate location, cookies, advertising identifiers, and interactions with the store.
how we use information
We use personal information to operate the store, process and deliver orders, take payment, provide customer support, manage accounts, prevent fraud and abuse, measure site performance, understand marketing effectiveness, improve products and services, keep required business records, and comply with legal obligations.
cookies, analytics, and advertising
The site uses cookies and similar technologies for essential store functions, security, preferences, analytics, and advertising measurement. Google services, including Google Analytics and Google Ads, may receive device and usage information when their tags operate on the site. Browser controls and Google’s privacy and advertising controls can be used to limit some of this activity.
who receives information
We disclose only the information reasonably needed to providers that help operate the store. These include ecommerce and website services, Hostinger, payment processors such as Stripe where enabled, fraud-prevention providers, Printify and its production partners, shipping carriers, email and customer-support services, Google analytics and advertising services, and professional advisers. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect customers or the business, or as part of a business reorganization or transfer.
selling and sharing
We do not sell personal information for money. Some analytics or advertising activity may be treated as “sharing,” “targeted advertising,” or a similar regulated activity under certain privacy laws. Where applicable, you may ask to opt out by contacting us and may also use available browser, cookie, and advertising controls.
retention
We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described here. The period varies based on whether the information is needed to fulfill an order, maintain an account, provide support, prevent fraud, resolve a dispute, or meet tax, accounting, and other legal obligations.
your privacy choices
Depending on where you live and subject to applicable exceptions, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information; receive a copy of certain information; object to or restrict certain processing; or opt out of targeted advertising or regulated sharing. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. You may also unsubscribe from marketing email using the link in the message.
children’s privacy
The store is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
security and international processing
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no online service can guarantee absolute security. Bearsnack and its providers may process information in the United States and other countries where they operate, which may have different privacy laws from your location.
updates and contact
We may update this policy as the store, technology, or legal requirements change. The current version and its update date will appear here. To exercise a privacy right or ask a question, email info@iamabearsnack.com or write to Bearsnack / Softseas Digital LLC, PO Box 74, Abingdon, MD 21009, USA.
