Introduction

At MuscleShokⓇ (“we,” “us”), we care about the privacy of your data. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect about you and why, what we do with the data, and how we handle that data. We also explain what choices you have with respect to the data.

You should read this policy in full, but there are a few key things that we hope you understand and take away from it:

• We sell directly through our online store and through partners such as Amazon. Any information you provide to our partners as part of your purchase is processed and controlled by our partners and not MuscleShok according to the partner’s privacy policy. We encourage you to review and be familiar with our partner’s privacy policy if you provide your data to them.
• When you use our website, even if you are just browsing, we receive some personal information about you like the type of device you are using and your IP address. You can choose to share additional information with us like your name, email address, phone number, photo, and stories. We use this information for things like sending you our newsletter and offers, posting your stories on our website for others to see, and advertising.
• When you purchase products through our online store, we require you to provide certain information. We use this information to fulfill your order. We may also use this information for things like sending you our newsletter, offers, and advertising.
• We do not market to, target, ship to, or otherwise knowingly collect information from persons in the European Union or EFTA States. MuscleShok is located solely in the United States of America, which does not provide the same rights as those specified in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
• You can contact us at info@muscleshok.com if you have questions about this Policy, or how we collect or process your Personal Data.

Safeguards

When you give us personal information, we take steps to make sure that it’s treated securely.

Non-sensitive details (your name, email address, etc.) are sent normally over the Internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

MuscleShokⓇ ensures all web compliance standards are met when handling any of your personal data.
