Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 11, 2026

The Brief

At 3 Mile Outfitters, we believe in "Leaving No Trace"—and that includes your digital footprint. We collect only the information necessary to provide you with a curated shopping experience, from the Granite Trails of Nova Scotia to your front door. This policy explains how we handle your data with the same precision we apply to selecting our gear.

1. Information We Collect

To get your order from our Halifax shop to the trail, we collect:

  • Contact Details: Name, shipping address, and email.

  • Transaction Data: What you’ve bought or added to your wishlist.

  • Device Info: Your IP address and browser type, used to ensure the site runs smoothly in Coastal Humidity or low-bandwidth areas.

2. How We Use Your Data

We don't just collect data; we use it as a tool for the mission:

  • Fulfillment: Processing payments and arranging shipping.

  • Tailored Experience: Recommending gear based on your past treks.

  • Security: Detecting and preventing fraud to keep the community safe.

3. Sharing & Shopify

We are powered by Shopify. They help us manage the "Engine Room" of the store. We share your info with them and our couriers (like Canada Post) to ensure your gear arrives on time. We do not sell your data to third-party "tactical" marketers.

4. Your Rights on the Trail

Depending on where you live (including our neighbors in Quebec), you have the right to:

  • Access: See what data we have on you.

  • Delete: Ask us to clear your history.

  • Correct: Update inaccurate info.

The Verdict

We treat your privacy as a high-performance standard, not an afterthought. If you have questions about your data or want to exercise your rights, reach out to us at the trailhead:
