Cookies

We use cookies to keep carts/checkout working and to measure site performance via anonymous analytics. You can disable cookies in your browser, but some features may behave oddly.

We use Google Analytics so we can optimise our site… You can see what we track here:

Security

SSL encryption, secure payment gateways, and restricted admin access are in place. No system is 100% bulletproof, but we take reasonable steps (and then some) to keep your data safe.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this page to reflect changes in law or our processes. For major changes, we’ll post a notice on the site.

Final Word

We build gear for strong people, not data mining. Your info stays safe, private, and used only for what you agreed to.
