Privacy policy
Last updated: August 11, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Inlet Gifts LLC, doing business as Badd Kitty (“Badd Kitty,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit our website, contact us, create an account, or make a purchase.
1. Information we collect
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:
- Contact and account information, such as your name, email address, telephone number, shipping and billing addresses, account credentials, and communication preferences.
- Order and transaction information, such as products ordered, order history, amounts paid, shipping details, returns, claims, and customer-service records.
- Payment information. Our payment service providers process payment-card and related financial information. We may receive limited transaction details, such as payment status, payment method type, and fraud-screening results.
- Device and usage information, such as IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, referring pages, timestamps, shopping activity, and cookie or similar-technology identifiers.
- Information you submit, including support messages, forms, product reviews, images, survey responses, and marketing preferences.
We collect information directly from you, automatically from your browser or device, and from service providers that help us operate the store.
2. How we use information
We may use personal information to:
- process, fulfill, deliver, and support orders;
- provide accounts, customer service, claims, replacements, and refunds;
- verify transactions and help prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents;
- operate, troubleshoot, analyze, and improve the website and customer experience;
- send service messages and, where permitted, marketing communications;
- maintain business, tax, accounting, and compliance records; and
- comply with law, enforce our terms, and protect legal rights and safety.
3. How we disclose information
We may disclose personal information only as reasonably necessary to:
- service providers that operate the storefront, process payments, fulfill or deliver orders, provide customer support, host reviews or forms, send communications, analyze site performance, or help prevent fraud;
- professional advisers and authorities when needed for legal, accounting, insurance, compliance, or safety purposes;
- comply with a lawful request or protect the rights, property, and safety of Badd Kitty, our customers, or others; or
- complete a merger, financing, reorganization, sale, or transfer of all or part of our business, subject to appropriate protections.
We do not sell personal information for money, and we do not provide personal information to unrelated third parties for their own direct-marketing purposes. Some privacy laws define “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising more broadly than an exchange for money. If our practices ever fall within those definitions, we will update this Policy and provide the notices and choices required by law.
4. Cookies and similar technologies
We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies to keep the site and cart working, remember choices (including age-gate confirmation), maintain security, understand site performance, and support enabled communications or marketing features. The age gate may remember that you confirmed eligibility; it is not intended to collect your date of birth.
You can adjust cookie settings through available site controls or your browser. Blocking some technologies may prevent parts of the store from working correctly. Where required, we will obtain consent before using non-essential technologies.
5. Marketing choices
You can unsubscribe from marketing email by using the link in the message or contacting us. We will process the request as required by law, although we may still send non-marketing messages about orders, accounts, security, or policy changes.
6. Retention and security
We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including order fulfillment, customer support, fraud prevention, tax and accounting obligations, dispute resolution, and legal compliance. Retention periods vary by the type of information and applicable requirements.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No online system or transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure.
7. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live and subject to legal exceptions, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a portable copy of your personal information, and to opt out of certain processing. You may also have a right to appeal a decision about a request and to receive equal service without unlawful discrimination for exercising a privacy right.
To make a request, email info@baddkittystores.com with “Privacy Request” in the subject line. We may ask for information reasonably necessary to verify your identity and protect your account. An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, subject to proof of authority and identity verification.
8. Adults only
Our website is intended only for people who are 18 or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a person under 18 has provided us with personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
9. United States processing and third-party links
We operate in the United States, and information may be processed and stored in the United States or other locations where our service providers operate. Third-party websites and services have their own privacy practices; this Policy does not govern them.
10. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy by posting a revised version with a new “Last updated” date. If a change materially affects how we use personal information, we will provide any additional notice required by law.
