Welcome to the website for Crusader Tactical, www.crusadertacticalok.com. This site is owned by Crusader Tactical, LLC. We recognize that many visitors to our website are concerned about the information they provide to us or that we may collect, how we treat that information, and what we do with it. In order to address those concerns, we have developed this privacy statement. It is designed to protect Crusader Tactical as well as our end-users.

A. Type(s) of Information Collected

On this website, we may collect both personally identifiable information and non-personal information from you.

1. Personally Identifiable Information

You don’t have to provide us with your personally identifiable information (such as your name, address, telephone number, email address) in order to read most of the content on our website. We do collect personally identifiable information about you when you set up an account or place an order from the website (such as registering for a training and/or safety class). Such information may include name, address, phone number, email address, credit card numbers, expiration dates, CVV codes, as well as billing and shipping addresses. We may also collect personally identifiable information about you when you submit comments, sign up to receive emails or newsletters from us, enter a contest, respond to a survey, email us, or when we contact you to submit personally identifiable information regarding an order. Without this information, we would not be able to fulfill your order(s), or respond to your inquiries, entries, and requests. Please note that several features of the site—such as advertisements—may be operated by third parties. These third parties may also obtain personally identifiable information from you in order to use their services. Please check their privacy policies for information about their privacy practices. In some cases these third parties may provide your personally identifiable information to Crusader Tactical.

2. Non-Personal Information

Non-personal information such as which pages on our website are accessed, what information is downloaded, what type of browser and operating system are being used, which Internet service provider is being used, and other information of this general type will be collected about all visitors. This information does not allow us to personally identify each site visitor. By collecting this information we learn how best to develop our website to meet the needs and desires of our visitors.

B. Methods of Information Collection

Personally identifiable information is collected when submitted by you—such as when you sign up for an account with us, place an order for a product, or when you send us an email via the form on our contact page. Personally identifiable information may also be collected when you include it as part of a comment or letter that you post on the site or submit to us. Your personally identifiable information may be collected by third party service providers and then provided to Crusader Tactical by the third party. Non-personal information may be collected via “cookies” (small text files placed on your computer’s hard drive), or similar web browser technology.
