Empowerise places great importance on protecting the privacy of children. Our Website is intended for users who are 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect information from individuals under 18, and our Website is not designed to attract users below this age threshold. We strongly encourage parents to discuss internet usage and information sharing with their children.
Empowerise actively collects information from users through specific queries and communication channels such as email, live chat, and feedback forms. Some of the information you provide may be personally identifiable, including but not limited to your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, billing information, and credit card details.
Certain areas of our Website may require information submission to access specific features or participate in activities, such as subscribing to newsletters, receiving tips, or processing orders. At each data collection point, we will clearly indicate which information is mandatory and which is optional.
We may share your personal information with contractors or service providers who assist us in delivering services or products to you. For example, your billing information may be shared with payment processors to facilitate order transactions. We may also disclose some or all of your personal information to affiliated companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or entities under common control, ensuring their adherence to this Privacy Policy. In the event of an acquisition involving Empowerise, the acquiring company will assume rights and responsibilities related to your personal information, consistent with this policy.
We may disclose your personal information in good faith to comply with applicable laws, respond to subpoenas, court orders, judicial proceedings, or warrants served on us, or to protect and defend our rights, property, or those of third parties.
We may also disclose your personal information to contractors, service providers, or third-party marketers who assist us in providing services, delivering products, or running advertisements.

Your personal information collected through the Website is secure and maintained according to industry standards. Safeguarding the security of all personal information associated with our users is a top priority for us. Personal information is stored on a secure server accessible only to select Empowerise employees and contractors via password. For payment processing and order fulfillment, we utilize established third-party vendors like Stripe and PayPal, who receive the necessary information to verify and authorize your payments and fulfill your orders.
It’s important to note that while we strive to protect your personal information, no data transmission over the Internet or wireless network can be guaranteed 100% secure. Factors beyond our control, such as Internet security and privacy limitations, may affect the security, integrity, and privacy of information exchanged between you and us. If you use passwords, ID numbers, or special access features on this Website, it is your responsibility to safeguard them.
While navigating our Website, certain information may be passively collected without your active input, including Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, cookies, Internet tags, and navigational data. These technologies help us enhance your experience and provide better services.
IP addresses are assigned by your Internet service provider and are generally non-personally identifiable. We use IP addresses to diagnose server issues, gather aggregate information, determine optimal routes to our Website, and enhance our services.
Cookies are small pieces of information sent to your web browser to remember your preferences and improve your experience on our Website. We use both session cookies (temporary and erased upon exiting your browser) and persistent cookies (stored on your computer until you delete them) to enhance navigation and collect aggregate data.

In most cases, we do not disclose personally identifiable information to these linked websites. However, these websites may collect personal information from you during your visits. To protect your privacy, always review the privacy policies of the websites you visit.
This Privacy Policy may change over time. We may notify you of substantive changes via email to the address associated with your account.
