Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 22, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Pickleball Gear Advisor (“we”, “us”) collects, uses and protects personal information when you visit pickleballgearadvisor.com (the “Site”). If you have questions, contact us at [email protected].

Information we collect

Information you give us: when you use our contact form or email us, we receive your name, email address and the content of your message.

Information collected automatically: like most websites, our hosting and security providers process technical data when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited and the date and time of your visit. This data is used to deliver the Site, keep it secure and prevent abuse.

Cookies: we use a limited number of cookies and similar technologies. See our Cookie Policy for details and to manage your preferences.

How we use information

We use personal information to respond to your messages, operate and secure the Site, understand and improve our content, and comply with legal obligations. We do not use your information to make decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.

Affiliate links

Our Site contains affiliate links, including to Amazon. When you click an affiliate link and visit a retailer, that retailer may set cookies on its own site to record that you came from us. We receive reports about qualifying purchases and commissions, but retailers do not share your name, address or payment details with us. The retailer’s own privacy policy applies to its site. See our Affiliate Disclosure.

Service providers

We share information only with providers that help us run the Site, such as our web hosting and email provider (Hostinger) and our security and content delivery provider (Cloudflare). They process data on our behalf and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.

Advertising and analytics

We do not currently display advertising or use third-party analytics on the Site. If we add them in the future, we will update this policy and our Cookie Policy, and we will ask for your consent where the law requires it.

Sale and sharing of personal information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as a valid request to opt out of sale and sharing. You can also use our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information page.

How long we keep information

We keep messages you send us for as long as needed to respond and for our records, and no longer than 24 months unless the law requires otherwise. Technical logs are kept for short periods by our hosting and security providers.

Your privacy rights in the United States

Depending on your state of residence (including California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas and other states with consumer privacy laws), you may have the right to know what personal information we hold about you, to access it, to correct it, to delete it, and to opt out of its sale, sharing or use for targeted advertising. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights. To make a request, email [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before responding. If we deny your request, you may appeal by replying to our response.

Your privacy rights in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom

If you are in the EEA or the UK, we process your personal information on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating and securing the Site and responding to you, and on the basis of your consent where required, such as for non-essential cookies. You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to the processing of your personal information, to data portability, and to withdraw your consent at any time. You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

International transfers

We operate from Morocco, and our service providers may process information in the United States, the European Union and other countries. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for these transfers.

Children

The Site is not directed to children under 13, or under 16 in the EEA and UK, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We use reasonable measures to protect personal information, including encrypted connections (HTTPS). No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows the latest version.
