7. Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising
TCQCDG™ does not sell personal information to third parties in exchange for money.
However, our use of advertising cookies, pixels, audience tools, or campaign-measurement services may constitute the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under certain United States privacy laws.
Where applicable, you may opt out by:
- Selecting Your Privacy Choices in our website footer
- Adjusting the Cookie Settings on our website
- Enabling a recognized Global Privacy Control signal
- Contacting us at service@tcqcdg.com
We do not knowingly sell or share personal information belonging to consumers under the age of 16 for targeted advertising.

- Encrypted website connections
- Restricted access to customer information
- Secure payment processing
- Account and fraud-monitoring controls

- System and security monitoring
No website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. Customers are responsible for protecting their passwords and notifying us if they believe an account has been accessed without authorization.
11. International Data Processing
Our service providers, fulfillment partners, and technology systems may operate in countries other than the one where you live.
As a result, personal information may be processed in jurisdictions with different privacy laws. Where required, we use appropriate contractual or legal safeguards for international transfers.
12. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Request access to personal information held about you

- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Opt out of targeted advertising

These rights may be subject to identity verification and legal exceptions.
To submit a request, email service@tcqcdg.com and write “Privacy Request” in the subject line. Include enough information for us to identify the relevant records, but do not send passwords or complete payment-card details.
We may need to verify your identity before completing access, correction, deletion, or portability requests. Opt-out requests will not require unnecessary identity verification.
Where permitted, an authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf. We may request evidence of the agent’s authority.
13. California Privacy Notice
If the California Consumer Privacy Act applies to TCQCDG™, California residents may have the following rights:
- The right to know what personal information is collected

We use these categories for the purposes described in this Policy.
We do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about customers beyond purposes permitted by applicable law.
Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
Where legally required and technically detected, we treat a valid Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for the associated browser or device.
Some browsers also transmit “Do Not Track” signals. Because there is no universally adopted technical standard for DNT, our website may not respond to ordinary DNT signals. Available cookie controls and recognized GPC signals should be used instead.
14. European, UK, and Swiss Visitors
Where European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Swiss data-protection laws apply, we process personal information under one or more of the following legal bases:
- Contract: to process and deliver an order
- Legitimate interests: to secure, maintain, and improve the store
- Consent: for nonessential cookies and certain marketing activities
- Legal obligation: to comply with tax, accounting, and regulatory requirements
You may have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict, or object to processing, request portability, or withdraw consent.
You may also submit a complaint to the data-protection authority in your country. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal.
15. Children’s Information
Our store is intended for adults and is not directed toward children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 without legally required parental consent. If you believe a child has submitted information to us, contact service@tcqcdg.com so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
The FTC maintains current guidance regarding children’s online privacy and COPPA requirements.FTC Children’s Privacy Guidance
16. Email and Marketing Preferences
We may send transactional communications about orders, payments, deliveries, returns, or account security.
Promotional messages are sent only as permitted by law. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link included at the bottom of each promotional message.
Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent essential order or customer-service communications.
17. Security Incidents
If a security incident affects personal information, we will investigate and provide notifications to affected individuals or authorities when required by applicable law.
Notifications will be made within the legally required timeframe and without unreasonable delay, taking into account legitimate security and law-enforcement needs.

Our website may contain links to external websites, platforms, or services.
TCQCDG™ does not control those services and is not responsible for their privacy or security practices. Review the privacy policy of each third party before providing personal information.
