Privacy Policy

Last Updated: [Insert Date]

Welcome to Rod Reel Kit (“we,” “our,” or “us”). We’re passionate about providing anglers worldwide with top-quality fishing gear, from baitcast combos to electronic lures. Just as we value the perfect cast, we value your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit rodreelkit.com.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Process orders for baitcast reels, conventional combos, and other fishing gear
• Provide customer support for your angling needs
• Improve our selection of baits & lures based on customer preferences
• Send order confirmations and shipping updates (like when your hard swimbaits are on the way)

While we implement these security measures for your fishing gear orders, no online transmission is 100% secure.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Like selecting the right lure for the conditions, we use cookies to:

• Analyze site traffic to improve our selection of casting rods and accessories
• Provide personalized recommendations for products like frogs & soft topwater lures

You can manage cookie preferences in your browser settings.

7. International Data Transfers

As we serve anglers globally (excluding some Asian and remote regions), your data may be transferred internationally with appropriate safeguards.

8. Children’s Privacy

Our website is not designed for children under 16. We don’t knowingly collect data from young anglers.

9. Policy Updates

We may update this policy as our business evolves, just as fishing techniques develop. Check back periodically for changes.

Tight lines and secure shopping,
