Firesicle provides Services enabling you to browse and purchase products from our store (“Firesicle,” “we,” “us,” and “our”). This Privacy Policy will help you understand how we collect, use and share your personal information and assist you in exercising the privacy rights available to you.

Capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy will have the meaning set forth in our Terms of Service.

Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information processed by us in our business, including on our websites (e.g., firesicle.com and any other websites that we own or operate), and our related online and offline offerings (collectively, the “Services”).

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party websites, services or applications, even if they are accessible through our Services.

By using our Services, you agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, do not use the Services. If you access and use the Services on behalf of a company (such as your employer) or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to this Privacy Policy. In that case, “you” and “your” will refer to that company or other legal entity.
