Comments and Product Reviews
When visitors leave comments or product reviews, we may collect the information entered into the form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser information, to support spam detection, moderation, and website security.
An anonymized string created from an email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether the commenter uses that service. After a comment is approved, a Gravatar profile image may be publicly visible with the comment.

Children’s and Youth Privacy
Na7ive Na7ions serves youth athletes, but merchandise purchases through the online store are intended to be completed by adults.
We do not knowingly collect personal information through the online store directly from children under 13 without appropriate parental or guardian involvement.
Youth program registrations may require information about minor participants. When applicable, Na7ive Na7ions may use separate registration forms, participation agreements, medical or emergency forms, photo releases, travel documents, and parent or guardian consent processes.
Sensitive youth information should not be submitted through a general contact form or by unsecured email unless specifically requested through an approved Na7ive Na7ions process.
If you believe a child submitted personal information without appropriate permission, contact us so we can review and address the matter.
Photographs and Media
Na7ive Na7ions may publish approved photographs, videos, names, Tribal affiliations, team information, or accomplishments relating to athletes, coaches, volunteers, events, and programs.
When required, photographs and identifying information involving minor athletes are used according to applicable parent or guardian permissions and organizational media-release procedures.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information.
However, no website, electronic transmission, payment system, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Do not send complete payment-card information, account passwords, Social Security numbers, medical records, or other highly sensitive information through general email or contact forms.
Links to Other Websites
Our website may contain links to websites operated by other organizations. Na7ive Na7ions is not responsible for the privacy, content, availability, or security practices of those websites.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our website, programs, store, service providers, or legal obligations change.
The revised policy will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
