FlagStride Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 2026

At FlagStride, we know your designs and personal information are valuable, and we treat them with care. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your data. Because our services are operated in the United States, your information will be handled in accordance with U.S. law, including Wyoming state requirements. For customers outside the U.S. should be aware that your data may also be stored here.

1. Information We Collect

The information we collect only what’s necessary to create and deliver your orders:

  • Personal information you provide: name, email address, billing and shipping address, phone number, order details, uploaded artwork, and any information you provide when contacting us. Payment information is processed securely by third-party payment providers such as Stripe or PayPal. FlagStride does not store your full payment card information.
  • Automatically collected information: device type, IP address, and browsing activity (via cookies). This information may be collected through cookies and similar technologies and is used to analyze website performance, understand visitor interactions, and improve our services.
  • Legal/business records: order history, company name, and tax ID (kept only as required by law).
  • * We only keep your information as long as necessary to fulfill these purposes or as required by law.

    2. How We Use Your Information

    Here’s how we use your information:

    • To make sure your orders, payments, and deliveries run smoothly.
    • To keep you informed about your order and answer any questions.
    • To personalize your shopping experience and, if you agree, send you special offers.
    • To meet legal requirements and protect against fraud.

    3. How We Protect Your Information

    We treat the security of your data with the utmost seriousness. We employ a multi-layered set of physical, technical, and administrative safeguards designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.

    • Encrypted data & payments (Stripe, PayPal – we never see raw card numbers).
    • Strict access control (only authorized staff, monitored use).
    • Breach response plan (we notify you promptly if anything happens).

    * We never sell or rent your information. Your trust is our priority. As our partner in security, we also recommend you use a unique, strong password for your FlagStride account and avoid using public computers for purchases.

    4.Who We Share Your Data With

    We never sell your personal information. We only share it with trusted third parties when it’s necessary to provide our services to you:

    • Shipping Carriers (USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc.) – We share your name and shipping details so they can deliver your order.
    • Payment Processors (Stripe, PayPal, etc.) – These services handle payments securely on our behalf.
    • Service Providers – We sometimes rely on IT partners to help host and maintain our website. They can only use your data to perform these services, nothing else.
    • Analytics and Advertising Providers
      We use third-party services such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, and Meta Pixel to understand website usage, measure advertising performance, and provide more relevant advertising. These providers may collect information such as cookie identifiers, device information, and browsing activity according to their own privacy policies.
    • Legal Requirements – In rare cases, we may disclose information to comply with tax laws or official requests.

    * All of these partners are contractually required to keep your information safe and confidential.

Please note that we are required to keep certain records, like order invoices, for accounting and tax purposes.
    • Marketing Preferences: You can opt out of promotional emails at any time, just use the unsubscribe link in any message you receive, or manage your preferences in your account. (You’ll still receive essential service messages like order and shipping updates.)
    • Limitations on Data Use: Where the law allows, you can ask us to limit how we use your information. If doing so would impact our ability to provide you with service, we’ll always explain the situation clearly before moving forward.
    • Analytics and Cookies: Prefer to browse anonymously? You can disable analytics and personalization tracking through our Cookie Settings. This won’t affect your ability to shop or use our site.

    To exercise these rights, email us at support@flagstri.com or reach out via our Contact Us page.

    • Resolve disputes and enforce agreements
    Order and transaction records may be retained for accounting, tax, legal, and business recordkeeping purposes.

    8. Children’s Privacy

    At FlagStride, our services are designed for a general audience and are not directed toward children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone in this age group. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at support@flagstri.com. Once we confirm, we’ll promptly remove that information from our systems.

    9. External Links

    From time to time, our website may share links to other sites, such as design inspiration blogs or social media pages. Please note that once you leave FlagStride, those websites have their own privacy practices, which may differ from ours. We encourage you to review their policies so you know how your information will be handled.

    10. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

    This Privacy Policy, and any concerns or disputes related to it, will be interpreted under the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles.

    Informal Resolution First: If you ever have a concern, we ask that you first contact us at support@flagstri.com with a written description of the issue. We’ll respond within 30 days and do our best to resolve it quickly and fairly without the need for formal action.

    Binding Arbitration: If we can’t resolve the matter informally, both you and FlagStride agree to resolve disputes through final and binding arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (AAA), using its Commercial Arbitration Rules (as modified by this agreement). The arbitration will take place in Laramie County, Wyoming, before a single arbitrator.

    Individual Resolution Only: To the fullest extent allowed by law, arbitration will only be conducted on an individual basis, not as a class action or collective claim. Both you and FlagStride waive the right to join claims with others.

    Waiver of Jury Trial: By agreeing to arbitration, both parties waive the right to a jury trial in any related court proceeding.

    Arbitrator’s Authority: The arbitrator will have the sole authority to decide any questions about the enforceability, interpretation, or validity of this agreement. Their decision will be final and binding, and judgment may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.

    Costs & Fees: Each party will cover its own legal costs and fees, unless the arbitrator decides otherwise under applicable law or AAA rules.

    Exceptions: This section doesn’t stop either party from going to court in Wyoming to seek an injunction (for example, to prevent unauthorized use of confidential information, intellectual property, or in cases involving data security).

    * Please review our complete Terms & Conditions for more detailed information on our dispute resolution process.

    11. Updates to This Policy

    As we improve our services and keep up with changes in the law, we may update this Privacy Policy. The latest version will always be available here, along with a “Last Updated” date.

    If any change affects your rights in a meaningful way, we’ll let you know clearly and in a timely manner, either by email (if we have your address) or by posting a notice on our homepage.
