OVERVIEW
This Privacy Policy describes how Van Project 1 (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Site”) values your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your data when you visit or use our services at vanproject1.com or otherwise interact with us (collectively, the “Services”).
By accessing or using our Services, you signify your consent to this Privacy Policy. “You” and “your” refer to you as the user of the Services, whether you are a customer, website visitor, or any other individual whose information we collect under this Policy.
If you do not agree with the practices described in this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use our Services.
SECTION 1 - INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Personal Information: We collect personal information you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, address, phone number, email address, and payment details when you place an order, create an account, sign up for marketing communications, or otherwise interact with our Services. This information is necessary for providing and fulfilling our Services, processing transactions, and improving your experience.
Usage Data: We automatically collect certain information when you access or navigate our Site, such as your IP address, browser type, device identifiers, pages visited, and timestamps. We use this data to analyze trends, administer the Site, and tailor your experience.
Email Marketing: With your explicit consent, we may use your email address to send you promotional materials, updates, and special offers. You can opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe link provided in such emails.
SECTION 2 - CONSENT
Obtaining Consent: By submitting personal information for transactions or interactions, you consent to its collection and use for those specific purposes. For additional uses, such as marketing, we will seek your explicit consent or provide you a clear opportunity to decline.
Withdrawing Consent: You may withdraw your consent for us to use your personal information at any time by contacting us at sales@vanproject1.com. Withdrawal will not affect processing already lawfully conducted based on your prior consent.
SECTION 3 - DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
We may disclose your personal information under the following circumstances:
Legal Requirements: To comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes, or government requests.
Protection of Rights: To enforce our Terms of Service, protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property, and that of our users or the public, or to prevent fraud or other illegal activities.
Business Transactions: In connection with any merger, acquisition, asset sale, or financing, your information may be transferred to third parties as part of the transaction.
Except as described above, we do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to outside parties for their own marketing purposes without your explicit consent.
SECTION 4 - SHOPIFY
Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides us with the online e-commerce platform that enables us to sell products and services to you.
Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases, and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server protected by firewalls and other industry-standard safeguards.
Payment:
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your transaction data is retained only as long as necessary to complete your purchase. Once complete, the transaction information is deleted.
All direct payment gateways adhere to PCI-DSS standards managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover, helping ensure secure handling of payment information.
For more details, refer to Shopify’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
SECTION 5 - THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
Service Providers: We engage third-party vendors and service providers to facilitate our Services, perform functions on our behalf, and analyze how our Services are used. Examples include payment processors, hosting services, analytics providers, and marketing partners. These third parties have access only to personal information necessary to perform their functions and are contractually obligated to protect and use it solely for authorized purposes.
Payment Processing: All payment transactions are processed through secure and compliant gateways. We do not store your credit card data on our servers. Third-party payment processors handle your data according to their own privacy policies.
Data Analytics: We use third-party analytics tools to understand website usage and improve our Services. Such tools may collect your IP address, device information, and browsing activities. This data is typically aggregated and anonymized and does not personally identify you.

Your interactions with such features are governed by the privacy policy of the social media company providing them.
Links to Other Websites: Our Site may contain links to external websites that we do not operate or control. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of such third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.
