Privacy Policy

“The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It’s an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us; it binds the galaxy together.” – Obi-Wan Kenobi

1. Who We Are

We are Costumes Crazy Shop (starwars-costumes.com), your trusted source for authentic Star Wars costumes and accessories. Based at 4561 Cantebury Drive, Garden City, US 11530, we serve Rebel and Imperial forces across the galaxy (excluding some remote areas in Asia and other regions).

2. Information We Collect

Like a protocol droid gathering information, we collect data to serve you better:

• Personal Identification: Name, email address, shipping address (because even Jedi need delivery coordinates)
• Payment Information: Credit card details (Visa, MasterCard, JCB) processed securely through our encrypted systems
• Account Data: Username, password, order history, saved items (for your future missions)
• Technical Data: IP address, browser type, device information (faster than lightspeed)
• Communication Data: Messages sent to [email protected]

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your information with the precision of a Stormtrooper’s aim (but much more accurately):

• Process your orders for Anakin Skywalker costumes, lightsabers, and other galactic gear
• Provide customer support worthy of C-3PO’s protocol skills
• Send order updates and tracking information
• Improve our website and product offerings
• Prevent fraud with security measures that would impress Imperial forces
• Send marketing communications (only with your consent, young Padawan)

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We treat your data with more secrecy than the Death Star plans:

• Service Providers: We share with trusted partners who help with payment processing, shipping, and website operations
• Legal Requirements: Only when required by law or to protect our rights
• Business Transfers: In case of merger or acquisition, similar to the Rebel Alliance joining forces
• Never: We do not sell your personal data to third parties

5. Data Storage and Security

We protect your data with security stronger than a Star Destroyer’s hull:

• Encryption technology that would make R2-D2 proud
• Secure servers located in protected facilities
• Regular security updates and monitoring
• Data retention only as long as necessary for our operations

While we implement robust security measures, no system is more secure than the Force itself, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Your Rights and Choices

You have more control over your data than the Emperor has over the Galactic Empire:

• Access: Request copies of your personal data
• Correction: Update inaccurate information
• Deletion: Request erasure of your data (with certain exceptions)
• Objection: Opt-out of marketing communications
• Portability: Receive your data in a readable format
• Withdraw Consent: Revoke permissions at any time

Contact us at [email protected] to exercise these rights.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies – not the sweet kind, but the digital kind that help us:

• Remember your login details and shopping cart items
• Understand how you use our website
• Personalize your experience with relevant costume suggestions
• Analyze website traffic and performance

You can control cookie settings through your browser, though this may affect your shopping experience faster than Han Solo can say “I know.”

8. International Data Transfers

Since we ship across the galaxy (excluding some remote areas), your data may be transferred internationally. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, similar to the protection the Rebel Alliance provides for its members.

9. Children’s Privacy

Our website is intended for Star Wars fans of all ages, but we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental consent. Younglings should browse with their Jedi Masters.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as our services evolve – much like the Star Wars saga itself. Significant changes will be communicated through our website or directly to you.
