1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Northline Peptide Co. ("Northline," "we," "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit this website or submit an inquiry through it. This is a demonstration storefront; if adapted for a live business, this policy should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before launch to ensure it meets the requirements of every jurisdiction you serve.
2. Information We Collect
Information you provide directly. When you submit the contact or order-inquiry form, we collect the information you enter: your name, email address, organization/institution (optional), reason for contact, and message content, which may include product and quantity details.
Cart information stored in your browser. When you add items to your cart, that information is stored locally in your browser (via localStorage) and is not transmitted to us unless and until you submit the contact form. It is not visible to anyone else and is not stored on any server on your behalf. Clearing your browser data will remove it.
Information we do not collect. This site does not process payments and does not collect payment card details, billing addresses, or financial account information of any kind.
3. How We Use Information
Information submitted through the contact form is used solely to respond to your inquiry, confirm order details, and communicate about research sourcing, documentation (such as certificates of analysis), or account questions. We do not sell, rent, or trade your information to third parties for marketing purposes.
4. Third-Party Services
Contact form submissions are processed through Formspree, a third-party form-delivery service, in order to route your message to our team by email. Formspree's handling of that data is governed by its own privacy policy. We do not use third-party advertising trackers or analytics cookies on this site beyond what's necessary for basic site function.
5. Cookies & Local Storage
This site uses browser local storage (not cookies) to remember the contents of your shopping cart between page views during your visit. This data stays in your browser and is only included in a submission if you choose to send the contact form.
6. Data Retention
Inquiry and order information submitted via the contact form is retained only as long as necessary to fulfill your request, maintain business records, and comply with applicable legal obligations, after which it is deleted or anonymized.
7. Your Rights
United States residents (including California residents under the CCPA) may request details of what information we hold about them and request its deletion, subject to legal recordkeeping requirements.
Visitors in the EU/EEA and UK have rights under the GDPR/UK GDPR to access, correct, or request deletion of personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.
We aim to serve researchers and institutions worldwide, and will make reasonable efforts to honor applicable regional privacy rights regardless of where a request originates.
8. Children's Privacy
