Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

This privacy policy applies to us-cardioshield.com (“we”, “us”, “this site”). We are an independent information website about the Cardio Shield dietary supplement. We are not the manufacturer of Cardio Shield and we do not operate the checkout, payment or fulfilment systems used when you place an order.

2. Information we collect

Information you give us

The only information you actively give us is what you choose to include in an email. We do not operate contact forms, newsletter signups, account registration or any other data-collection mechanism on this site. If you email us, we hold your message and address for as long as needed to reply and for a reasonable record afterwards.

Information collected automatically

Like nearly all websites, our servers and analytics tools record standard technical information when you visit: IP address (typically truncated or anonymised), browser type and version, device type and screen size, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time spent and approximate geographic region derived from IP. This is aggregate technical data used to understand how the site is used and to keep it working. It is not used to identify you personally.

What we never collect

• Payment card details — we never see them; payment is handled entirely by the manufacturer's checkout
• Health information, medical history or medication details
• Government identification numbers
• Your order details, order history or shipping address

3. Cookies and similar technologies

This site may use cookies and similar technologies for essential functionality, anonymised analytics, and affiliate attribution — a cookie that records that a visit to the merchant originated here, so that any resulting commission is credited correctly. Affiliate cookies do not contain personal information and do not affect the price you pay.

You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking them will not prevent you from using this site or from ordering.

4. Analytics

We may use third-party analytics services to understand aggregate traffic patterns. These providers process data under their own privacy policies and we configure them to minimise personal data collection where the option exists.

5. How we use information

• To operate, maintain and improve this website
• To respond to emails you send us
• To understand which content is useful and which is not
• To detect and prevent abuse, fraud and technical problems
• To comply with legal obligations

6. We do not sell your data

We do not sell, rent or trade personal information to anyone. We do not build marketing profiles and we do not operate a mailing list.

7. Third-party links

This site contains links to the manufacturer's website and checkout. Once you follow such a link you are on a third-party site governed by its own privacy policy and terms, over which we have no control and for which we accept no responsibility. Please read the privacy policy of any site where you enter personal or payment information.

8. Children

This site is not directed at anyone under 18 and Cardio Shield is not intended for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has sent us information, email us and we will delete it.

9. Data security

This site is served over HTTPS and we apply reasonable technical measures to protect the limited information we hold. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please do not send sensitive personal or health information by email.

10. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing of your personal information, to data portability, and to withdraw consent. Residents of the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom have these rights under the GDPR. California residents have rights under the CCPA and CPRA, including the right to know what is collected and to opt out of sale — noting that we do not sell personal information at all.

To exercise any right, email [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. Requests about an order — which we do not hold — must go to the manufacturer.

11. Data retention

Email correspondence is kept only as long as necessary for the purpose it was sent, plus a reasonable period for records. Analytics data is retained in aggregate form according to the retention settings of the analytics provider.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be reflected here; continued use of the site after a change constitutes acceptance.
