We may use information to confirm identity, investigate suspicious activity, or protect the integrity of our platform.
C. Customer Support
We use the information you provide to respond to inquiries and resolve problems with your order.
We do not use your data to build marketing profiles or conduct promotional outreach.
4. Cookies
Our website may use minimal cookies for basic functionality. Since we do not run Shopify or marketing integrations, cookie use remains limited to site performance and security.

We may disclose information to:
- Stripe, for payment processing

7. Children’s Data
Blackwater RC does not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 16. Purchases must be made by an adult or with an adult’s consent.
8. Security and Retention
We use commercially reasonable measures to safeguard personal information. No system is impenetrable, and data transmitted online may not be fully secure in transit.
Retention is tied to operational needs, legal requirements, and accounting obligations.
