EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS

If you signed up for our mailing list, you can expect to hear from us infrequently — we only reach out when we have something worth saying. Every email we send includes an unsubscribe link. Click it anytime and we'll remove you promptly, no questions asked.

We use a third-party email platform to manage our list and send emails. Your email address is stored on their platform in accordance with their privacy policy.


HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties.

We may share information with trusted service providers who help us operate our website and business — such as our email platform, website host, and analytics provider. These providers are contractually required to keep your information confidential and may not use it for their own purposes.

We may disclose information if required to do so by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Culprit Pet Co LLC, our customers, or others.
