5. Third-Party Services
Our website may contain links to third-party services. These providers have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their practices. Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party site, this Privacy Policy no longer applies.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the Unsubscribe link in any marketing email. Transactional emails (order confirmations, shipping updates, account notifications) will continue regardless of your marketing preferences, as they are necessary to fulfill your orders.
