  1. Collection of Personal Information: We may collect personal information from you when you create an account, place an order, or contact us for support. The information collected may include your name, email address, contact number, and shipping address. We ensure that the collection of personal information is lawful, reasonable, and necessary for the purposes for which it is collected.
  2. Use and Purpose of Personal Information: We will use the personal information provided by you to process your orders, provide customer support, and communicate important updates about our products and services.
