Privacy Policy

Last Updated: [Insert Date]

At Best Kite Shop (“we,” “us,” or “our”), we value your trust as much as you value the perfect breeze for flying your kite. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit funwithkites.com or purchase our high-quality kites, from beginner models to advanced performance kites like our Bowed & Dihedral collection.

1. Information We Collect

To help you soar with the perfect kite, we collect:

• Order Information: Name, shipping address (like our shop at 7650 West 68th Avenue, Arvada), email, phone number, and payment details when you purchase our 10.5 Foot Double Box Delta or playful Dragon Kites.
• Account Information: If you create an account to track your Collections or wishlist.
• Browsing Data: Information about how you explore our kite categories, from Animal Spinners to Canards.
• Communication Records: When you contact our kite-loving team at [email protected].

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data to make your kite-flying experience as smooth as our Flo-Tail Deltas in steady wind:

• Process orders for Back Pack Sleds or limited edition kites
• Provide customer support for international customers (excluding some remote areas)
• Improve our website and product offerings (like our popular Delta Kites and Parafoils collections)
• Send order updates and promotional offers (only if you opt-in)
• Prevent fraud and ensure transaction security

3. Data Sharing & Disclosure

Like choosing the right kite line, we’re careful with your data:

• Service Providers: We share only necessary information with payment processors (Visa, MasterCard, PayPal) and shipping carriers.
• Legal Compliance: When required by law or to protect our rights.
• Business Transfers: If Best Kite Shop is involved in a merger or acquisition.

We never sell your personal information to third-party marketers.

4. Data Storage & Security

We protect your data as carefully as we package our delicate Bird or Bug kites:

• PCI-compliant payment processing
• Encrypted data transmission
• Secure servers with limited access
• Regular security assessments

While we implement these measures, no internet transmission is 100% secure. We recommend using strong passwords and protecting your login information.

5. Your Rights

You have control over your information, just like controlling a dual-line kite:

• Access: Request a copy of your personal data
• Correction: Update inaccurate information
• Deletion: Request removal of your data (subject to legal requirements)
• Opt-Out: Unsubscribe from marketing communications

To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].

6. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Like the tail on our 45 Inch Flo-Tail Deltas, cookies help balance your browsing experience:

• Essential Cookies: Necessary for checkout and account functions
• Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how customers browse between Cat and Dog kites
• Marketing Cookies: Used only with consent for personalized ads

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings or our cookie consent banner.

7. International Data Transfers

Since we ship globally (except some remote areas), your data may be processed outside your country. We ensure all transfers comply with applicable data protection laws.

8. Children’s Privacy

While our Beginner kites are perfect for young flyers, our website is not directed at children under 13. We don’t knowingly collect their personal information.

9. Policy Updates

We may update this policy as our kite collection grows. Significant changes will be notified via email or website notice.
