Global Xploration · Effective date: October 18, 2026 · Last updated: October 18, 2026

​

1. Who We Are

This Privacy Policy explains how Global Xploration ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit www.globalxploration.com (the "Site"), contact us, subscribe to updates, or purchase from our online shop.

​

By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or submit information to us.

​

2. Information We Collect

Information you give us directly

• Contact and business inquiries: first and last name, company, email address, phone number, and the contents of your message.

• Newsletter sign-ups: your email address.

• Shop orders: name, shipping and billing address, email address, phone number, and order details.

 

Payment information

Payments are handled by third-party payment processors. We do not receive or store your full card number. We may receive limited details such as the card type, the last four digits, and confirmation that a payment went through.

​

Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, our website platform and related tools may automatically collect technical information, including your IP address, browser and device type, approximate location derived from your IP address, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and the site that referred you. Much of this is collected through cookies and similar technologies (see Section 6).

​

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• respond to inquiries and communicate with you about potential projects, partnerships, or media requests;

• process, fulfill, ship, and support shop orders, including returns and exchanges;

• send newsletters and updates you have subscribed to;

• operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site;

• detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or unauthorized activity;

• comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms; and

• protect the rights, property, and safety of Global Xploration, our customers, and others.

​

We will only send you marketing emails if you have subscribed or otherwise agreed to receive them.

​

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only in the limited situations below.

• Service providers. We rely on trusted companies to run our business, including our website host and platform (Wix), payment processors, print-on-demand and fulfillment partners, shipping carriers, and email delivery tools. They receive only the information needed to perform their services and may not use it for other purposes.

• Legal requirements. We may disclose information when we believe in good faith that it is required by law, subpoena, court order, or government request, or that it is necessary to protect our rights, investigate fraud, or protect anyone's safety.

• Business transfers. If Global Xploration is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction. It will remain subject to protections consistent with this Policy.

• With your permission. We may share information for other purposes when you ask us to or agree to it.

​

5. Business Inquiries and Unsolicited Submissions

Please do not send confidential or proprietary information through our contact form, by email, or through any other part of the Site unless we have first signed a written confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement with you.

​

Ideas, research, site locations, coordinates, historical information, proposals, or other materials you send us without such an agreement are not treated as confidential. Submitting them does not create any partnership, employment, compensation obligation, or other relationship between you and Global Xploration. This protects both parties: you keep control over what you share, and we can continue our own independent research and projects without dispute over unsolicited materials.

​

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for it to function, such as keeping items in your shopping cart and securing your session. Our website platform may also use cookies for analytics and performance so we can understand how the Site is used.

​

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may prevent parts of the Site, such as checkout, from working correctly. Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies.

​

7. How Long We Keep Information

We keep personal information only as long as it is reasonably needed for the purposes described in this Policy, including to meet legal, tax, accounting, and record-keeping requirements. For example, order records are generally kept for as long as tax and accounting rules require, and newsletter information is kept until you unsubscribe. When information is no longer needed, we delete it or make it anonymous.

​

8. How We Protect Information

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information, and our website platform and payment processors maintain their own security measures. No method of transmitting or storing data is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You share information at your own risk, and you are responsible for keeping any account passwords confidential.

​

9. Your Choices and Rights

Email preferences. You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in any email or by contacting us. We may still send messages related to your orders or inquiries.

​

Access, correction, and deletion. You may ask us to tell you what personal information we hold about you, correct it, or delete it. We will respond within the time required by applicable law. We may need to verify your identity first, and we may keep certain information when the law requires or allows it, such as order records.

​

U.S. state privacy rights. Depending on where you live, state law may give you additional rights. We will honor requests as required by the laws that apply to us.

​

Visitors from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland. If these laws apply to you, we process your information on the following bases: to perform a contract with you (such as fulfilling an order), our legitimate interests (such as responding to inquiries and securing the Site), your consent (such as newsletter subscriptions and non-essential cookies), and compliance with legal obligations. You may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your information, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time. You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

​

To make a request, contact us using the details in Section 14.

​

10. International Visitors

Global Xploration is based in the United States, and our service providers may be located in the United States or other countries. If you access the Site from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your country. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for these transfers.

​

11. Children's Privacy

The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

​

12. Links to Other Websites

The Site may link to other websites and social media platforms, such as LinkedIn and Facebook. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites. Please review their privacy policies before sharing information with them.

​

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Significant changes may also be announced on the Site or by email. Continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised Policy.
