(CURRENT FROM MAY 2025)

At Acquisitions, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you interact with our website, services, and products.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of personal information from you:

• Contact Information: Name, email address, phone number
• Transaction Details: Billing, shipping information, and order history
• Browsing Data: IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and actions on our website
• Cookies and Tracking Technologies: For functionality, analytics, and advertising purposes

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Process and fulfill your orders
• Respond to your inquiries and provide customer service
• Send you updates, promotions, and marketing communications (if you've opted in)
• Improve our website, services, and user experience
• Display advertising, including personalized ads based on your browsing behavior

3. Interest-Based Advertising and Your Choices

We may work with third-party advertising partners who use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your online activity over time and across different websites. This enables us to deliver ads that are more relevant to your interests — also known as interest-based advertising or behavioral targeting.

How to Opt Out of Interest-Based Advertising

You can opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies by visiting the following industry opt-out tools:

• Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/
• Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA): http://www.aboutads.info/choices/
• DAA AppChoices (mobile apps): http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices

Please note that these opt-outs are device- and browser-specific. Opting out does not mean you will stop seeing ads — it means those ads may be less tailored to your interests.

4. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies to:

• Remember your preferences
• Analyze website performance
• Improve functionality
• Support marketing and advertising activities

You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect your experience on our website.

• Request access to the personal information we hold about you
• Request corrections to that information
• Withdraw your consent (where applicable)

7. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services (e.g., payment processors, analytics providers, and marketing tools) that may collect and process data as part of their services to us. These providers are contractually obligated to handle your information responsibly.
