Privacy Policy.

1. Overview

This policy explains what information Bargain Vape collects through www.bargainalternatives.com, why we collect it, and what we do with it. We have deliberately kept the site's data collection minimal.

2. What we collect

Information you give us

If you submit a wholesale inquiry, we collect what you type into that form: your business name, contact name, email address, phone number, city and state, business type, the display box quantities you are interested in, and any message you write. We ask for this only so we can respond to your inquiry.

Information collected automatically

Our host records standard server access data such as IP address, browser type and pages requested. This is used for security and to keep the site running. We do not run analytics, advertising trackers, or third-party marketing pixels on this site.

Cookies and local storage

We do not use advertising or analytics cookies. The site stores a single value in your browser's session storage to remember that you confirmed your age, so you are not asked again on every page. It is cleared when you close the browser and is never sent to us.

3. How we use it

• To respond to your wholesale inquiry and to correspond with you about it.
• To assess whether a prospective stockist is a fit for our products.
• To keep the site secure and working.
• To meet legal or regulatory obligations, including age-restriction requirements.

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information.

4. Who else sees it

Form submissions are processed and stored by our website host, Netlify, which acts as a service provider on our behalf, and are delivered to our business email. We may also share information where required by law, or to protect our legal rights. Beyond that, we do not share your information with third parties.

5. How long we keep it

We keep wholesale inquiries for as long as needed to evaluate and service the business relationship, and afterwards only as long as required for our records or by law. You can ask us to delete your inquiry at any time.

6. Your choices and rights

You can ask us to confirm what information we hold about you, to correct it, or to delete it. Write to sales@bargainalternatives.com and we will respond within a reasonable period. Depending on where you live you may have additional rights under state privacy law; tell us which state you are writing from and we will treat your request accordingly.

Because we do not send marketing email from this site, there is no marketing list to unsubscribe from. If that ever changes, every message will carry an unsubscribe link.

7. Children

This site is restricted to adults aged 21 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 21. If you believe a minor has submitted information to us, contact us and we will delete it.

8. Security

The site is served over HTTPS and form submissions are transmitted encrypted. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.

10. Contact

Privacy questions and requests go to sales@bargainalternatives.com. Email is our only channel for these enquiries.
