This Privacy Policy explains how ASCND Trading LLC (“ASCND Research,” “we”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use ascndpeptides.com (the “Site”).
Information we collect
You provide directly:
- Identity and contact details: name, email, phone number
- Billing and shipping addresses
- Order history and order contents
- Age attestations and Research-Use Waiver acceptance records (checkbox state, timestamp, order ID)
- Messages you send to support
Collected automatically:
- IP address, browser and device identifiers
- Pages viewed, session activity, and referring URLs
- Approximate location derived from IP
Payment information
We do not store bank account numbers, wallet keys, or full payment credentials on our systems. When payment methods are enabled, payments are handled by the approved payment provider under its own privacy policy; we receive transaction confirmations, reference IDs, and information needed to reconcile and support the order.
How we use information
- Process, ship, and support orders
- Maintain legally required records, including age and research-use attestations
- Send transactional messages (order confirmation, shipping updates)
- Send marketing email if you subscribe — every message has an unsubscribe link
- Analyze Site traffic and improve the store when analytics tools are enabled
- Prevent fraud and enforce our Terms of Service
Who we share with
We share information only with the service providers required to operate the store, each under its own privacy terms:
- Hosting/CDN: Cloudways, Cloudflare
- Approved payment providers displayed at checkout
- Shipping carriers and label services
- Transactional email and analytics providers, if enabled
- Meta Platforms, Inc., for advertising measurement, only if you accept marketing cookies
We also disclose information where required by law, court order, or to protect our legal rights. We do not sell your personal information.
Cookies and tracking
The Site uses necessary cookies for functions such as cart, checkout, session security, age-gate acknowledgment, and remembering your cookie choices.
With your permission, the Site also uses the Meta Pixel, an advertising technology provided by Meta Platforms, Inc., to measure which of our advertisements lead to visits and orders. The Meta Pixel does not load unless you accept marketing cookies in our cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time using “Cookie preferences” at the foot of every page. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal.
When enabled, the Meta Pixel sends Meta the pages you visit, the products you view or add to your cart and the contents of your cart when you begin checkout (identified by product code), your IP address, and technical information about your browser and device. Meta handles this information under its own terms and privacy policy. We do not send Meta your name, email address, phone number, postal address, or payment details.
You can also control cookies in your browser; blocking necessary cookies may break checkout.
Data retention
Order records, waiver acceptances, and compliance records are kept as long as required for legal, tax, and audit purposes. Marketing data is kept until you unsubscribe or request deletion. Other data is kept only as long as needed for the purposes above, then deleted or anonymized.
Your rights
Depending on your state of residence, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a portable copy of your personal information, and to opt out of certain processing. Email info@ascndtrading.com to make a request; we verify identity before acting.
Security
We use SSL/TLS encryption, access controls, and reputable infrastructure providers with industry-standard protections. No system is completely secure; report suspected issues to info@ascndtrading.com.
Age
The Site is intended solely for adults 21 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 21; if we learn we have, we delete it.
International visitors
The Site is operated from the United States and intended for U.S. customers. If you access it from elsewhere, you understand your information is processed in the U.S.
Changes
We may update this policy by posting a revised version with a new “last updated” date.
