Who we share your data with
At Safe Haven Defense, we take your privacy seriously and only share your personal information in limited, specific circumstances to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, or protect our rights and safety. We do not sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
We may share your information with the following categories of recipients:
- Service Providers We engage trusted third-party vendors and service providers to assist us in operating our website, processing payments, fulfilling orders, delivering products, managing inventory, sending communications, hosting data, and providing technical support. These providers are contractually obligated to use your information only for the purposes we authorize and to protect its confidentiality and security. Examples include payment processors (e.g., Stripe, PayPal), shipping carriers (e.g., USPS, UPS, FedEx), email service providers, and web hosting services.
- Legal and Regulatory Compliance We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, subpoena, or other legal process, or when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable laws, respond to governmental requests, enforce our Terms of Service, protect the rights, property, or safety of Safe Haven Defense, our customers, or the public, or to prevent or investigate potential wrongdoing.

How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
