We do not actively track precise real-time location data. Limited location information (such as city, state, or ZIP code) may be inferred from:

  • Shipping addresses

  • IP addresses

  • Billing information

This information is used solely for order fulfillment, tax calculation, fraud prevention, and internal analytics. We do not use location data for continuous tracking or location-based advertising without explicit consent.


Banking Data & Third-Party Payment Processing

For convenience and security, Outdoorsiness uses a trusted third-party service (Plaid) to facilitate bank transfer or ACH payments.

  • We do not request or store bank login credentials or passwords

  • Customers are redirected to Plaid’s secure environment to authenticate

  • Plaid provides only the minimal tokenized information required to process transactions

Plaid’s handling of your data is governed by its own Privacy Policy, available at:
