Introduction

We at Wild Octane, LLC ("Wild Octane, LLC," "we," "us," or "our") have created this privacy policy (this "Privacy Policy") because we know that you care about how information you provide to us is used and shared. This Privacy Policy relates to the information collection and use practices of Wild Octane, LLC in connection with our online services (the "Services"), which are made available to you through a variety of platforms, including our website https://www.wildoctane.com (the "Website"). By visiting our Website and/or using our Services, you are agreeing to the terms of this Privacy Policy and the accompanying Terms of Service. Capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy shall have the meaning set forth in our Terms of Service. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal data when you visit our e-commerce site and make purchases.

Information We Collect

We may collect the following categories of personal data when you use our e-commerce site:

• 2.1. Personal Identifiable Information (PII): This includes your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, and payment information when you make a purchase.
• 2.2. Usage Data: We may collect information about how you interact with our website, such as the pages you visit, your browsing habits, and your device information, including your IP address, browser type, and operating system.

1) Personal Information

When you sign up (create an account or sign in via Facebook or Google authentication), enter a contest, promotion, or sweepstakes, or sign up to receive emails, SMSs or other notifications, you will be required to provide us with personal information about yourself (collectively, the "Personal Information"). Such Personal Information for Subscribers may include your name, e-mail address, mailing address, and phone number. We do not collect any Personal Information from you when you use the Services unless you provide us with the Personal Information voluntarily (directly or via Facebook or Google authentication.)

2) Billing Information

When you sign up and place a bid or order a product, you will be required to provide certain information in addition to the Personal Information noted above. Such information may include a debit card number, credit card number, and similar information (collectively, the “Billing Information”). All transactions are processed by our third-party payment vendors. We do not collect, store, or maintain any Billing Information. Instead, it is collected and processed through these third-party vendors pursuant to the terms and conditions of their privacy policies and terms of use.

3) Other Information

In addition to the Personal Information and the Billing Information noted above that you voluntarily provide to us, we may collect additional information (collectively, the “Other Information”). Such Other Information may include:

a. From Your Activity. Information that we automatically collect when you use the Services, such as your IP addresses, browser type and language, referring and exit pages and URLs, date and time, amount of time spent on particular pages, what sections of the Website you visit, order information, and similar information concerning your use of the Services.

b. From Cookies. Information that we collect using “cookie” technology. Cookies are small packets of data that a website stores on your computer’s hard drive so that your computer will “remember” information about your visit. We use cookies to help us collect Other Information and to enhance your experience using the Services. If you do not want the Platform to place a cookie on your hard drive or mobile device, you may be able to turn that feature off on your computer or mobile device. Please consult your Internet browser’s documentation for information on how to do this. However, if you decide not to accept cookies from us, the Services may not function properly.

c. From You. Additional information about yourself that you voluntarily provide to us, such as your hobbies, personal interests, household income range, number of children, gender, demographic information, and product and service preferences.

d. From Third-Party Web Beacons and Third-Party Buttons. We may display third-party content on the Website, including third-party advertising. Third-party content may use cookies, web beacons, or other mechanisms for obtaining data in connection with your viewing of the third party content on the Website. Additionally, we may implement third party buttons (such as Facebook “like” or “share” buttons) that may function as web beacons even when you do not interact with the button. Information collected through third-party web beacons and buttons is collected directly by these third parties, not by Wild Octane, LLC. Information collected by a third party in this manner is subject to that third party’s own data collection, use, and disclosure policies.

e. From Other Sources. Information that we collect or receive from other sources, such as our partners and advertisers.

Data Processing and How Users Can Request Data Deletion The data you provide to us is processed to create and support user accounts, to register and authenticate your use of the Services and to faciliate your use of our services, including creating orders, billing you for our services, sending email related to your orders and use of our services, and other similar uses. We will process your data in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

You may request deletion of your Personal Information by contacting us at support@wildoctane.com. We will take reasonable steps to accommodate your request, but we may need to retain certain data to ensure that the Services are not negatively impacted by the deletion of data. We will retain and use your data as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
