We use this information for the following reasons.

Names, email addresses, and phone numbers: We store users’ names, email addresses, and phone numbers that are submitted to us in order to keep in contact with the user. In most cases, the user’s name and email address is all of the personal information that we store.

Shipping addresses: Shipping addresses are only used to estimate shipping prices and to ship physical products to users who make product purchases.

Billing addresses: Financial information may be stored such as your billing address that we may collect when you purchase, order, return, or exchange a product, or submit an online donation on our website. We store only very limited, if any, financial information that we collect. Otherwise, all financial information is stored by our payment processor, Stripe, and you are encouraged to review their privacy policy and contact them directly for responses to your questions.

If a user would like for us to delete all of their personal information from our database, we will as long as the user requests for us to delete this information.
