Privacy Policy

Effective Date: March 26th, 2026

OTIA Sports (“OTIA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us through our website, applications, and related services. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we protect it, and the choices you may have regarding your information.

Information We Collect

We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you:

  • fill out a contact form
  • sign up for updates or newsletters
  • make a purchase or submit an order inquiry
  • apply for employment
  • communicate with us by email, phone, or other channels

The information we collect may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, payment-related details handled through third-party processors, and any other information you choose to submit.

We may also automatically collect certain technical information when you use our website, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring pages, and general usage information.

How We Collect Information

We collect information directly from you when you submit it to us, and we may collect certain information automatically through cookies, analytics tools, server logs, and similar technologies.

How We Use Your Information

We may use your information to:

  • provide, operate, and improve our website and services
  • respond to inquiries and customer service requests
  • process purchases, transactions, or service requests
  • send order confirmations, updates, and service-related communications
  • send newsletters or marketing communications if you opt in or otherwise permit us to do so
  • monitor website performance, security, and fraud prevention
  • comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms

How We Protect Your Information

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

Where applicable, sensitive information transmitted online is protected using encryption technologies such as SSL or TLS. Access to personal information is limited to authorized persons who need it to perform their job duties.

If payments are processed through third-party providers, payment card information is typically processed by those providers and not stored directly on our servers.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We may use cookies and similar technologies to improve site functionality, understand website usage, remember user preferences, and support analytics or advertising features.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect certain features or functionality of the website.

Third-Party Services

We may use trusted third-party service providers to help operate our website, process payments, send emails, provide analytics, host content, or support other business functions. These providers may have access to information only as needed to perform services on our behalf and are expected to protect it appropriately.

Third-Party Advertising and Analytics

If we use Google services such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, or AdSense, Google and related partners may use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your interaction with our website and other websites. This may be used for analytics, ad measurement, and personalized advertising where applicable.

You can learn more about Google’s privacy practices and ad settings through Google’s privacy and advertising controls.

When We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information for money. We may share your information in the following circumstances:

  • with service providers who help us operate our business
  • to comply with legal obligations, court orders, or lawful requests
  • to protect our rights, property, security, users, or others
  • in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or similar business transaction
  • with your consent or at your direction

Your Choices

You may choose not to provide certain personal information, but doing so may limit your ability to use some features of our website or services.

If you no longer wish to receive marketing emails from us, you may unsubscribe using the link included in those emails or contact us directly.

Do Not Track

Some web browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” signals. Because there is no universally accepted standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to them in all cases.

Children’s Privacy

Our website and services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without appropriate consent where required by law. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can review and address the issue appropriately.

California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, you may have certain privacy rights under California law, including rights related to knowing what personal information is collected, how it is used, and, in some cases, requesting deletion, correction, or access, subject to applicable exceptions.

If your business is subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, you may also need a separate California privacy notice or notice at collection describing those rights in more detail.

Data Security and Breach Response

Although no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, we take reasonable steps to protect personal information. If we become aware of a data breach affecting your personal information, we may notify affected individuals as required by applicable law.

Email Communications and CAN-SPAM Compliance

If you provide your email address, we may use it to send you transactional messages, respond to your requests, send order-related information, and, where permitted, send marketing communications.

In compliance with applicable email marketing laws, including the CAN-SPAM Act, we will:

  • not use false or misleading subject lines or sender information
  • identify promotional messages as required by law
  • include a way to unsubscribe from marketing emails
  • honor unsubscribe requests within the time required by law

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date above. Your continued use of our website after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy, to the extent permitted by law.
