When a purchase is made, certain personal information, such as name, address, and email address, is collected to process and fulfill the order.

With your consent, marketing emails about new products, updates, and more may be sent.

SECTION 2 - CONSENT

Consent is important. By providing personal information during a transaction, you imply consent for the collection and use of that information for the specific purpose of completing the transaction.

If information is required for secondary purposes, like marketing, express consent will be directly requested or an option to decline provided.

Consent can be withdrawn at any time by contacting info@laptopmountain.com.
