Effective date: July 13, 2026
VIVAL operates thesurvivalgear.com. This policy explains what information may be collected when you use the site, why it is used, and the choices available to you.
Information you provide
VIVAL may receive information you choose to send by email, including your email address and the contents of your message. The site does not currently operate an email signup or gated checklist-delivery form. If email collection is introduced later, this policy and the collection notice will be updated before that feature is enabled.
Information collected automatically
The site, its hosting provider, and analytics services may automatically receive technical information such as IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location, and request timestamps. This information is used to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and understand use of the site.
Analytics and cookies
VIVAL uses Google Analytics through Google Site Kit. Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies to measure visits and interactions. You can limit cookies through your browser settings. Google explains how it uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Affiliate links and third parties
Some VIVAL links are paid affiliate links, including links to Amazon. When you follow one of these links, the merchant may collect information under its own privacy policy and may use cookies or an affiliate identifier to attribute a purchase. VIVAL does not receive your payment-card details from those merchants.
How information is used
- Operate, secure, and improve the site.
- Measure site performance and understand which content is useful.
- Respond to messages you choose to send.
- Detect abuse, fraud, or technical problems.
- Comply with applicable legal obligations.
Sharing and retention
Information may be processed by service providers that support hosting, security, analytics, and website operations, subject to their terms and privacy practices. VIVAL does not sell personal information. Information is retained only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described above, security, recordkeeping, or legal requirements.
Your choices and rights
You can block or delete cookies through your browser and can use browser or device privacy controls to limit analytics. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information. Requests can be sent to the contact address below.
Children
VIVAL is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

This policy may be updated when site practices or services change. The effective date at the top will be revised when material updates are published.
