WHY WE COLLECT DATA
We collect data for various reasons, such as:
- To provide you with software, services or information. We may collect data that identifies you as an individual or company, which is required to provide you with the software, support, and services that you have requested. To receive the software, support and services, you explicitly fill in the data when you sign up for an Exodus Outdoor Gear Account.
- Announcements or Billing. From time to time we may need to inform you of updates that are available for products you own or send you monthly billing statements or notify you of your account status.
- To provide technical support. We may need to ask you for data to process your support request, especially if it requires accessing your account or other data that you already have provided to us. You hereby expressly consent to the collection and storage of this data.
- Promotional Purposes. Exodus Outdoor gear may use your information to send you promotional information pertaining to Exodus Outdoor Gear’s products and services.
- As required by law. We may use and disclose your personal data where required by law, such as in response to a court order, valid subpoena, or other legal process.
- To protect our rights and interests and the rights and interests of other users. We may use and disclose your personal data where we believe, in our sole judgment, that it is appropriate to do so to protect our rights and interests and the rights and interests of other users of Exodus Outdoor Gear’s Software Products or Services, or where we believe there has been a violation of this privacy policy that could affect the interests of Exodus Outdoor Gear or its customers.
- Business Transfers. If we are acquired by or merged with another entity, if substantially all of our assets are transferred to another entity, or as part of a bankruptcy proceeding, or other business transfer, we may transfer the information we have collected from or about you to the other entity.
- Third Party Service Providers. We use third party service providers as discussed in this section.
WHAT WE COLLECT AND SHARE
What we collect and share depends largely on the interaction that takes place between you and Exodus Outdoor Gear, most of which can be categorized under the following:
Purchasing Exodus Outdoor Products
When you purchase Exodus Outdoor Gear Products or Services, we collect the minimum information to process your payment and create your customer account. This information may include name, shipping address, zip code, email address, phone number, and a brief description of your Payment Method, such as "VISA ending in ****1234". Exodus Outdoor Gear DOES NOT DIRECTLY COLLECT OR RETAIN ANY OF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD INFORMATION. Exodus Outdoor Gear uses a third-party service provider to process your credit card or PayPal transactions. Exodus Outdoor Gear will defer any responsibility of safe-guarding your Credit Card information to those third party companies that actually receive it. Your Credit Card information is transmitted directly from your browser or mobile app running on your computer or device directly to the Credit Card Processor and is never sent to Exodus Outdoor Gear. The only information Exodus Outdoor Gear will receive is a brief description of the Payment Method used in that transaction and an internal Transaction ID which allows Exodus Outdoor Gear to match up the purchase with the transaction/charge by the third party service provider. The third party service provider used is a company called Stripe.
All users must also agree to our Terms & Conditions prior to activating their account or transmitting any post.
Exodus Vendors, Partners and Service Providers
When you purchase products and services from Exodus Outdoor Gear, it may be required that we provide a minimal amount of information to the vendors, partners or service providers.
WHAT WE DON'T SHARE
Exodus Outdoor Gear takes your privacy seriously and the abuse of unsolicited email ("spam"). Exodus Outdoor Gear does not share our customer data, including email lists, with any outside marketing companies or campaigns.
