Privacy Policy
Last updated: [Date]
1. Who We Are
Amoswitch.store ("we," "our," or "us") operates the website Amoswitch.store (the "Site"). We sell firearms, firearm parts, accessories, and related products. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you visit or make a purchase from the Site.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information You Provide Directly
When you create an account, place an order, or contact us, you may provide:
- Full name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Billing and shipping address
- Date of birth (for age verification)
- Government-issued identification details (if required for a firearm or NFA transfer)
- FFL information (if you are an FFL dealer transferring a firearm)
- Payment information (credit/debit card details are processed securely through our payment processor; we do not store full card numbers on our servers)
2.2 Information Collected Automatically
When you browse the Site, we may automatically collect:
- IP address
- Browser type and version
- Operating system
- Pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URL
- Device type and unique device identifiers
This data is collected through cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies. (See the Cookies section below.)
2.3 Information from Third Parties
We may receive information from shipping carriers (delivery confirmation), payment processors (transaction status), and public databases (to verify identity or compliance with export laws).
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
- Order fulfillment: Processing payments, shipping products, and communicating order updates.
- Legal compliance: Verifying age (21+ for handguns/handgun ammo, 18+ for long guns), conducting background checks through FFL partners, maintaining required records for firearm sales (e.g., ATF Form 4473), and complying with export/import regulations.
- Customer support: Responding to inquiries, returns, and warranty requests.
- Site improvement: Analyzing usage trends to optimize user experience and security.
- Marketing (with consent): Sending promotional emails or newsletters. You may opt out at any time by clicking "unsubscribe" in the email.
4. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as necessary:
- Service providers: Payment processors (e.g., Stripe), shipping carriers (USPS, UPS), cloud hosting, and email service providers—all bound by strict data processing agreements.
- FFL Dealers: When transferring a firearm, we share necessary information (name, address, contact) with the receiving FFL to complete the background check and transfer.
- Legal obligations: We may disclose information to law enforcement, ATF, or other government agencies as required by law, subpoena, or court order—especially regarding firearm transactions, NFA registrations, or criminal investigations.
- Business transfers: If the company is merged, sold, or acquired, customer data may be transferred as part of the assets, with notice given to you.
5. Data Retention
We retain personal information as long as needed to fulfill the purposes outlined here, plus any period required by law. For firearm sales records, we may retain transaction details indefinitely (per ATF record‑keeping requirements). Automatically collected data (cookies, logs) is typically retained for up to 26 months. When no longer needed, data is securely deleted or anonymized.
6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use essential cookies to operate the Site (e.g., shopping cart, login) and analytics cookies (like Google Analytics) to understand use patterns. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect site functionality.
We do not currently respond to "Do Not Track" signals due to a lack of industry uniformity.
7. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures, including SSL encryption, firewalls, and secure server configurations. Payment transactions are handled via Stripe's PCI-DSS compliant environment; we never see or store full credit card numbers, CVV codes, or bank details on our own servers.
Despite our safeguards, no online transmission is 100% secure. You share information at your own risk; we encourage strong passwords and prompt notification of any suspicious account activity.
8. Your Rights and Choices
8.1 Access, Correction, and Deletion
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by contacting us at [Email]. We will verify your identity before processing the request. Certain records (especially firearm transaction logs) may be exempt from deletion under federal law.
8.2 Opt-Out of Marketing
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time via the link in the email or by contacting us. Transactional emails (order confirmations, shipping notices, legal notices) will still be sent.
8.3 State-Specific Rights
If you reside in California, Virginia, Colorado, or other states with comprehensive privacy laws, you may have additional rights—including the right to know what personal data is collected, the right to opt out of targeted advertising or sales (we don't sell data), and the right to appeal a denied request. To exercise these rights, email us with your state of residence.
9. Children's Privacy
The Site is not directed to individuals under the age of 18 (or 21 for certain products). We do not knowingly collect information from minors. If we discover a minor has submitted data, we will delete it immediately.
10. International Users
Our Site is based in the United States, and your data will be processed and stored in the U.S. By using the Site, you consent to the transfer of your data to a jurisdiction whose privacy laws may differ from your own.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy periodically. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the latest revision. We encourage you to review the policy each time you make a purchase.
