For your convenience, this document explains our practices in detail and outlines your rights in relation to your personal data.
In this Privacy Policy, "personal information," "personal data," or "user data" refers to any information that directly or indirectly identifies an individual.

This policy is applicable to all users of Deckandchips, regardless of geographic location, and outlines our approach to handling your personal data in compliance with relevant legal requirements, including those set forth by the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
Since our website is solely informational, we do not actively collect personal information through commercial transactions or payment systems.
