PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date: June 28, 2026

Introduction

Welcome to Thrift Room. We are fully committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring your personal information is handled securely and transparently. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your data when you visit our store, make purchases, or use our digital services. By interacting with our website, you acknowledge and agree to the data management practices described below.

Information We Collect

To provide a functional shopping environment and process your orders efficiently, we collect several categories of data. This information is necessary to satisfy your purchases, manage technical support inquiries, and analyze store performance. We minimize data collection to fields that directly support our operational requirements

Personal Information Provided Voluntarily by You

We collect personal indicators that you explicitly enter into our forms during your shopping process, including account creation, checkout stages, and customer support communications:

  • Identity Indicators: Full legal name, which is utilized to verify account credentials, prevent fraud, and print correct shipping labels.
  • Contact Coordinates: Valid email address and telephone number. We use your email to dispatch order receipt validations, shipping tracking links, policy updates, and customer service responses. Telephone numbers are strictly reserved for carrier contact during delivery complications.
  • Address Information: Complete shipping address and billing address. These entries are essential to calculate tax parameters, complete address validation protocols, and route physical packages via our shipping infrastructure.
  • Payment and Transactional Data: Details regarding the specific items you order, sizing parameters, prices, and checkout history. Financial data (such as account credentials or card numbers) is gathered directly by our external payment processing partners; our internal servers do not record full credit card details.

Information Collected Automatically Through Technology

When you browse our collection or use checkout elements, our backend server infrastructure and data integration systems automatically track technical signals generated by your browser or device connection:

  • Device and Network Identifiers: Your Internet Protocol (IP) address, approximate geographic location data derived from network logs, device type (desktop, mobile, tablet), and specific hardware identifiers.
  • Software Specifics: Web browser identity (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge), browser version, installed language settings, and operating system configurations.
  • Browsing and Interaction Records: Chronological logs detailing your journey through our web pages, including the specific product listings viewed, click paths, active duration spent on individual pages, terms entered into search fields, and items placed into your shopping cart.
  • Referral Diagnostics: The referring URL, page, or digital interface that directed your connection to the Thrift Room store.

How We Use Your Information

Your records are processed strictly for legitimate operational purposes, including:

  • Order processing, verification, and inventory fulfillment.
  • Securing transactional authorization through verified payment gateways.
  • Coordinating physical shipping and delivery logistics with regional postal carriers.
  • Providing immediate customer support and answering technical account questions.
  • Executing automated risk parameter screening and fraud prevention checks.
  • Optimizing website functionality, interface layouts, and system performance.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process your data relying on established legal parameters: Contract Fulfillment to manage and ship your orders; Legitimate Business Interests to oversee security screenings, combat fraud, and analyze store diagnostics; and Legal Obligations to satisfy state or federal tax, accounting, and business compliance parameters.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Thrift Room uses cookies and similar tracking identifiers to maximize operational functionality. Essential cookies are deployed to preserve your shopping cart items, navigate checkout phases, and log into your account. Performance and analytics cookies are utilized to review anonymous site traffic trends. You can disable cookies at any time via your individual browser settings; however, switching off these markers may limit certain automated checkout systems on our platform.

How We Share Your Information

We do not sell or trade your data to third-party entities. We share information exclusively with essential service providers necessary to execute store operations:

  • Payment Processors: Encrypted entities like PayPal and standard card clearing services to process your order totals safely.
  • Shipping Carriers: Established domestic shipping carriers to handle packet delivery.
  • System Diagnostics: Analytical tools like Google Analytics to evaluate site health and speed parameters.
  • Legal Compliance: Federal or state authorities if strictly required to comply with an enforceable legal subpoena or court order.

Data Retention

We store your records only as long as necessary to satisfy our business obligations, customer support parameters, and accounting requirements (typically ranging from 6 to 24 months for general transaction history, or longer as mandated by local tax laws). Once data is no longer required for regulatory compliance or customer support, it is permanently scrubbed or anonymized within our database architecture.

Data Security

We implement balanced electronic safeguards to protect consumer details. Our platform runs Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption for all incoming web transmissions. Our backend architectures conform to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) for payment tracking. Furthermore, we do not store your full credit card numbers on our internal networks; transaction data remains isolated within authorized gateways. Access to personal details is strictly restricted to essential team personnel.

Your Privacy Rights (US Customers)

Depending on your state of residence (including parameters aligned with the California Consumer Privacy Act / CCPA and equivalent state regulations), you hold the following privacy privileges:

  • Right to Access: Request an exported summary of the personal information records we hold regarding your identity.
  • Right to Correct: Request adjustments to inaccurate, outdated, or misspelled personal data records.
  • Right to Delete: Request the permanent elimination of your personal details from our active internal files, subject to regulatory retention restrictions.
  • Right to Opt-Out: Direct us to stop any marketing updates or promotional communication cycles.

To exercise any of these privileges, please submit a written request to our customer support desk using the contact credentials provided below.

Third-Party Links

Our website may occasionally contain links to external portals or third-party web structures. Thrift Room does not manage, oversee, or assume liability for the privacy guidelines, script safety, or operational content of external websites. We advise reading the privacy provisions of any external page you visit.

Children’s Privacy

Thrift Room is built for a general consumer audience. We do not intentionally or knowingly target or collect personal information fields from children under the age of 13. If we discover that an individual under 13 has submitted account details without verifiable guardian authorization, we will remove those files immediately from our active servers.

International Data Operations

Our digital infrastructure and fulfillment operations are organized inside the United States to serve US-based consumers. If you access our platform from outside North America, please note that your incoming data points will be processed and stored within American data centers in compliance with US laws.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

Thrift Room maintains the right to adjust or update this Privacy Policy at any time. Any structural modifications will be posted instantly on this page with an updated effective date. Your continued navigation of our store or checkout tools following a revision signals an acceptance of the updated privacy guidelines.
