At Bear and Beyond, we are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or purchase from us.

SECTION 1 – What Do We Do With Your Information?
When you make a purchase from our store, we collect the personal information you provide — such as your name, address, and email — as part of the order process.
Additionally, when you browse our store, we automatically receive your IP address to help us learn about your browser and operating system.
Email Marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you promotional emails about new products, offers, or updates.

SECTION 2 – Consent

How do you give consent?
By providing your personal information to complete a transaction, place an order, arrange for delivery, or return a product, you imply your consent to our collecting and using your information for that specific purpose only.
If we ask for your information for any secondary purpose (like marketing), we will ask for your explicit consent or give you the opportunity to decline.
How can you withdraw consent?
If you change your mind after opting in, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you or to continue using your data at any time by contacting:[email protected]

SECTION 3 – Disclosure
We may disclose your personal information only if required by law or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SECTION 4 – Payment
We use Razorpay to process payments. Neither Bear and Beyond nor Razorpay stores your credit/debit card data on their servers.
Your payment information is encrypted using PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) protocols. Your transaction data is used only as long as necessary to complete the transaction and is not retained afterward.

SECTION 5 – Third-Party Services
Third-party service providers used by us will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to perform the services they provide.
However, some providers, such as payment gateways, have their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing their policies to understand how your information will be handled.
Note: If a provider is located in a different jurisdiction, your data may become subject to laws of that region.
Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party service, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our site’s Terms of Service.
External Links: Our site may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices and recommend reading their privacy policies.

We take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to protect your personal data from being lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed.

We use cookies to maintain your user session. These cookies are not used to personally identify you on other websites.

By using our site, you confirm that you are at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction, or that you are the age of majority and have given us consent to allow your minor dependents to use this site.

SECTION 9 – Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes will take effect immediately upon posting on the site.
If significant updates are made, we will notify you so that you understand how your information is used and protected.
If Bear and Beyond is acquired or merged with another company, your information may be transferred to the new owner to continue providing services to you.
