At UMP ATTIRE Shop, we understand that sports officials demand reliability and trust in every aspect of their gear – including how their personal information is handled. Just as our officiating equipment is built for peak performance on the field, our privacy practices are designed to protect your information with the same level of professionalism and care.

1. Information We Collect

To provide you with the best possible service for your officiating needs, we collect the following types of information:

Personal Information

  • Contact Details: Name, email address, phone number, shipping address
  • Payment Information: Credit card details (processed securely through encrypted gateways), PayPal account information
  • Order History: Records of purchases including Ankle-Bands, Arm-Wrist-Guards, Base-Plate-Shoes, and other officiating equipment

Technical Information

  • Device Data: IP address, browser type, operating system
  • Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent on site, products viewed
  • Location Data: General geographic location for currency conversion and shipping calculations

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information with the same precision and purpose that officials bring to the game:

  • Order Processing: To fulfill your purchases of Chest-Protectors, Ball-Bags, Clothing-Apparel, and other officiating gear
  • Customer Service: To provide support for your equipment needs and answer questions about Game-Warning-Penalty-Cards or other products
  • Website Improvement: To enhance your shopping experience and ensure our site performs as reliably as our Base-Plate-Shoes
  • Security: To protect against fraud and unauthorized transactions
  • Communication: To send order confirmations, shipping updates, and occasional promotions for Cold-Weather-Accessories or new equipment

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We handle your data with the same integrity you expect from sports officials:

  • Service Providers: We share necessary information with payment processors (Visa, MasterCard, JCB, PayPal), shipping carriers, and IT service providers under strict confidentiality agreements
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information when required by law or to protect our rights and safety
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger or acquisition, customer information may be transferred to the new owners
  • International Transfers: As a global supplier, data may be processed in countries outside your residence, always with adequate protection measures

We never sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Data Storage and Security

Just as our Equipment-Bags protect your gear, we protect your data with robust security measures:

  • Encryption: All sensitive data is encrypted using SSL technology and PCI DSS compliant payment gateways
  • Limited Retention: We store personal data only as long as necessary for business purposes or as required by law
  • Secure Infrastructure: Regular security audits and monitoring protect against unauthorized access
  • Payment Security: We never store complete credit card details on our servers
