1. What We Collect & How We Use It

Purchases & Bookings
When you buy merchandise or book tattoo services, we collect information you provide—such as your name, email, phone number, billing/shipping address, payment method (processed securely by third parties), and order or appointment details.

Tattoo Intake & Consent
For in-studio services, we may collect additional information (e.g., age/ID verification, allergies, medications, health disclosures). This is used only to assess service suitability, meet legal/safety requirements, and maintain records. We do not use health data for marketing.

Site Browsing & Technical Data
When you visit our site, we automatically receive information like IP address, device/browser type, referring/exit pages, and general location. This helps us operate, secure, and improve the Services.

Marketing (Opt-in)
If you choose, we may send you updates about drops, events, and releases. You may unsubscribe at any time.

Portfolio & Content
With your consent, we may photograph healed or fresh tattoos for use in our portfolio, social media, or marketing. This consent is separate from service consent.

2. Consent

By providing personal information for transactions, bookings, or intake forms, you consent to its collection and use for that purpose. For secondary uses (like newsletters), we will ask you to opt-in.

You may withdraw consent at any time by unsubscribing from communications or contacting us at brand@asiancougar.com.

3. Disclosure

We may share your information:

• When required by law or legal process.

• To protect our rights, property, or safety (including that of clients and the public).

• With trusted service providers (payments, hosting, analytics, logistics) strictly as needed to deliver our Services.

We do not sell or share your information.

4. Platform & Third-Party Services

Hosting & E-commerce
Our site is hosted on Squarespace. Your data may be stored on Squarespace’s secure servers.

Payments
Online payments are processed by providers such as Stripe, PayPal, or Apple Pay. These companies encrypt and process payment data in accordance with PCI-DSS standards. We do not store full credit card numbers.

Other Providers
We use third-party services for analytics, email, shipping, scheduling, and marketing. Each collects, uses, and discloses information only to the extent necessary to perform their services. Some may operate in different countries; your information may therefore be subject to other jurisdictions.

We are not responsible for the practices of third-party sites linked from our platform and encourage you to review their policies.

5. Security

We take reasonable precautions, including TLS/SSL encryption, password protections, and limited access protocols, to protect your information from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access. While no system is 100% secure, we follow industry standards and update safeguards as needed.

6. Cookies & Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Keep your session and cart working.

• Remember preferences.

• Analyze site performance and traffic.

• Support marketing and advertising features (if enabled).

You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings. Note that disabling may affect site functionality.

7. Age of Consent

By using our site, you confirm you are at least the age of majority in your location. Tattoo services are strictly 18+ and require valid government-issued ID. Minors are not eligible for tattoos except where local law expressly permits.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, update, correct, restrict, or delete your personal information, or request a copy of it.

To exercise these rights, email us at brand@asiancougar.com. We may require identity verification before acting on requests.

9. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates take effect immediately when posted. If material changes are made, we will note the update date above.

If our brand or assets are acquired or merged, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
