Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 2026

At BMX Biker (accessible via https://bmxbiker.com), this policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.

Buying a pair of riding pants or a tee should not cost you control of your data. We collect what we need to take payment, ship your order, and answer your emails, and we keep it no longer than we have reason to.

By using our website, you agree to the practices described below. If a privacy question is not answered here, email us at [email protected] and we will be glad to help.

Privacy at a Glance

1. Information We Collect

• Contact details: name, email address, shipping and billing address.
• Order details: items ordered, order totals, and order history.
• Payment details: processed by PayPal. We see the payment status and method type, never your full card number.
• Messages: the content of emails and contact form messages you send us.
• Technical details: IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, and time on site, collected through cookies.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to process and ship orders, send order and shipping updates, handle returns and refunds, answer your messages, prevent fraud, improve the website, and meet legal obligations. We never sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

3. How We Share Your Information

• PayPal, to process payments.
• USPS, UPS, and FedEx, to deliver your order and any return.
• Service providers that host the website and send email, bound by confidentiality.
• Authorities, when the law requires it.
• A successor business, if the business is ever sold or merged, under the same protections.

4. Cookies

We use cookies to keep the cart working, remember preferences, and understand how the site is used. Our Cookie Policy explains each type and how to control them.

5. Data Retention

Order records are kept for 7 years to meet tax and accounting requirements. Contact messages are kept for 12 months and then deleted, unless they relate to an open order or dispute.

6. Data Security

The website runs over an encrypted SSL connection, payments are handled by PayPal, and access to order data is limited to the people who need it to serve you. No system is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, including under Connecticut law, you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, correct it, delete it, receive a copy of it, or opt out of marketing. Email us and we will respond within the timeframe the law sets. Using these rights never changes how we serve you.

8. Marketing Communications

We send marketing email only if you opt in. Every message includes an unsubscribe link, and order and shipping emails continue even after you unsubscribe from marketing.

9. Children's Privacy

Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you believe a child has shared personal information with us, email us and we will delete it.

10. Third-Party Links

Links to outside sites, such as carrier tracking pages, are governed by those sites' own privacy practices.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted here with a new Last Updated date.
