By using our site, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Last Updated: 2023
1. Information We Collect
To provide you with a seamless and secure shopping experience, we collect the following types of information:
- Personal Information: When you make a purchase or create an account, we collect details such as your name, email address, shipping address, and payment information (e.g., credit/debit card details processed securely via our partners).
- Transaction Data: We record information about your orders, including products purchased, payment method, and transaction history.
- Technical Data: We automatically collect data like your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited to enhance site performance and security.

- Preferences: We may collect data on your shopping preferences, such as product interests (e.g., activewear, boxing gear, or accessories), to personalize your experience.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your data to fuel your active lifestyle by providing a fast, efficient, and secure service, similar to how our premium gear supports your performance. The primary uses include:
- Order Processing: To process payments, ship orders, and send confirmations (e.g., using secure payment gateways for credit cards or PayPal).
- Customer Support: To respond to your inquiries and offer assistance, just like we help you choose the right boxing equipment.
- Site Improvement: To analyze site usage and enhance our website, products, and services based on customer trends.
- Marketing: With your consent, we may send promotional emails about new products (e.g., activewear or backpacks) or offers tailored to your interests. You can opt out at any time.
- Security: To monitor for fraudulent activities and protect against unauthorized access, ensuring your data is as safe as our encrypted transactions.
3. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We value your trust and only share your information in limited circumstances, always prioritizing your privacy:
- Payment Partners: We share payment details with trusted providers like Visa, MasterCard, JCB, and PayPal for secure processing. We never store full card details on our servers.
- Shipping Carriers: We provide necessary shipping information to delivery services to fulfill your orders globally (excluding some remote areas and specific Asian countries).
- Legal Compliance: We may disclose data if required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or protect our rights and safety.
- Service Providers: We work with third-party companies for services like website hosting or analytics, under strict confidentiality agreements.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger or sale, your data may be transferred to the new entity, with notice provided.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
4. Data Storage and Security
Your security is as crucial to us as the durability of our baselayers and backpacks. We implement robust measures to safeguard your data:
- Storage: Data is stored on secure servers located in the US and other regions compliant with privacy laws. We retain information only as long as necessary for business or legal purposes.
- Encryption: We use military-grade encryption for all transactions and adhere to PCI-DSS standards for payment processing.
- Access Controls: Access to personal data is restricted to authorized personnel who require it for their roles.
- Regular Audits: We conduct frequent security reviews and updates to protect against vulnerabilities.
While we strive for maximum security, no online method is 100% secure. We encourage you to use strong passwords and monitor your accounts.
