Legal Bases for Processing

Where GDPR or similar laws apply, we process personal information based on contract performance, legitimate interests, legal obligations, consent, and protection against fraud or abuse.

International Transfers

Because GTT ECOM LLC operates from the United States and uses global service providers, personal information may be processed in the United States and other countries. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as contractual protections and standard contractual clauses.

Data Retention

We keep order, transaction, tax, support, fraud-prevention, and legal records for as long as needed for business, legal, accounting, tax, warranty, dispute, and compliance purposes. Marketing data is kept until consent is withdrawn or the data is no longer needed.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, withdrawal of consent, or opt-out of certain advertising or data sharing. Contact contact@summitopticsco.com to submit a request. We may need to verify your identity before completing the request.

California Privacy Notice

California residents may have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know, delete, correct, and opt out of certain sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not knowingly sell personal information for money.

Children’s Privacy

Our website is not directed to children under 13. Purchases must be made by adults or with adult supervision. If you believe a child provided personal information without proper consent, contact us so we can review and delete the information where required.

Security

We use Shopify-hosted checkout, HTTPS, access controls, payment-provider security, and operational safeguards. No online system is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect customer information.
