Welcome to Pelican Sport Store (“we,” “us,” or “our”). We’re committed to protecting your privacy as you shop for your water adventures. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website kayakboardoffers.com or make a purchase from us.

1. Information We Collect

3. Sharing Your Information

Your security is as important to us as the quality of our water sports equipment:

• We store data on secure servers with industry-standard protections
• All transactions are protected by 256-bit SSL encryption
• We never store full credit card details on our servers
• We implement access controls and regular security audits

While we take reasonable measures to protect your information, no internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure.
