Privacy Policy

Last Updated: [Insert Date]

At US Sports Running (“we”, “us”, or “our”), we value your trust as much as you value your running performance. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and share information about you when you visit our website ussportsrunning.com (the “Site”) or make purchases from our online store.

1. Information We Collect

Like selecting the perfect running shoes, we carefully choose what information we collect to enhance your experience:

• Personal Information: When you make a purchase, create an account, or contact us, we collect your name, email address, shipping address, payment information, and phone number.
• Order Information: Details about the running gear you purchase, including size preferences and product selections.
• Technical Information: IP address, browser type, device information, and how you interact with our Site.
• Communication Data: Records of your interactions with our customer service team.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information with the same precision as elite runners use their gear:

• To process your orders and deliver your running equipment worldwide
• To provide customer support and respond to your inquiries
• To improve our website and product offerings
• To send you relevant information about your orders and our products (if you opt-in)
• To prevent fraud and enhance security
• To comply with legal obligations

3. Sharing and Disclosure

We treat your data with the same care as we do our premium running gear:

• Service Providers: We share necessary information with payment processors (Visa, MasterCard, JCB, PayPal), shipping carriers, and IT service providers to fulfill your orders.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose information when required by law or to protect our rights and safety.
• Business Transfers: In case of merger or acquisition, customer information may be transferred as a business asset.

We never sell your personal information to third-party marketers.

4. Data Storage and Security

We protect your data with the same dedication as we protect runners worldwide:

• All transactions are encrypted with 256-bit SSL technology
• We never store complete credit card numbers on our servers
• Regular security audits and PCI-DSS compliance
• Data is stored on secure servers with limited access

While we implement robust security measures, no online transmission is 100% secure. We encourage you to use strong passwords and protect your login information.

5. Your Rights

You have control over your data, just like you control your running pace:

• Access: Request a copy of your personal data we hold
• Correction: Update or correct inaccurate information
• Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal requirements
• Opt-out: Unsubscribe from marketing communications
• Restriction: Request limitations on how we use your data

To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your shopping experience:

• Essential Cookies: Necessary for website functionality and checkout process
• Performance Cookies: Help us understand how visitors use our Site
• Marketing Cookies: Used to show relevant ads (you can opt-out)

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect website functionality.

7. International Data Transfers

As we ship running gear worldwide (excluding some Asian and remote locations), your information may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your own. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for these transfers.

8. Children’s Privacy

While we sell kids’ running shoes, our website is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without parental consent.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally, just like we update our product lineup. The updated version will be posted on our Site with a new “Last Updated” date.
