Last updated: September 8, 2026
Urban Homesteading Club (“Urban Homesteading Club,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates this website and online store, including the information, content, features, tools, products, and services offered through it (collectively, the “Services”). Our store is powered by Shopify, which provides the ecommerce platform that allows us to offer the Services to you.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you visit or use our website, make a purchase, create an account, communicate with us, or otherwise interact with the Services.
By using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understand this Privacy Policy.
PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
“Personal information” means information that identifies you or can reasonably be linked to you. It does not include information that has been anonymized or de-identified so that it cannot reasonably be associated with an individual.

• Contact information, including your name, email address, billing address, shipping address, and phone number.
• Order and transaction information, including products viewed, added to your cart, purchased, returned, refunded, exchanged, or canceled, as well as your order history.
• Payment-related information, including payment method, payment confirmation, transaction details, and related financial information. Payment information is generally processed by Shopify and its payment providers rather than stored directly by Urban Homesteading Club.
• Account information, including login credentials, preferences, and account settings.
• Communications, including information you provide when contacting us for customer service, submitting feedback, or otherwise communicating with us.
• Device and technical information, including your browser type, device type, IP address, network information, and other identifiers.

COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

Some third parties may place or read cookies or use similar technologies when you interact with our website.
You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Depending on your location, additional cookie or privacy controls may also be available through our website.
Disabling certain cookies may affect how some portions of the Services function.
TARGETED ADVERTISING AND PRIVACY CHOICES
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to opt out of certain uses or disclosures of personal information for targeted advertising, cross-context behavioral advertising, or activities that applicable law defines as the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information.
Where available, you may exercise these rights using the privacy controls provided through our website or Shopify.
If your browser sends a recognized Global Privacy Control signal, we will process that signal as required by applicable law.
THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES AND SERVICES
Our website may contain links to third-party websites, social media platforms, or other online services that we do not control.
We are not responsible for the privacy, security, content, or practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing personal information.
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
The Services are not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age at which parental consent is required under applicable law.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us improperly, please contact us so that we can review and, where appropriate, delete the information.
SECURITY
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information.
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Please avoid sending highly sensitive or confidential information through unsecured communication channels.
DATA RETENTION
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services, fulfill orders, maintain business and tax records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud, and support other legitimate business purposes.
