Microsoft Clarity
The Website uses Microsoft Clarity, a behavioral analytics service provided by Microsoft. Clarity can provide information about Website usage, including sessions, interactions, and aggregated behavioral information such as heatmaps.
Depending on your privacy choices and the technology’s configuration, Microsoft Clarity may use cookies or similar technologies and receive information about your browser, device, Website activity, and interactions.

9. Contact Forms and Communications
When you contact us through the Website, we use the information you provide to review your request and communicate with you.
Information submitted through a contact form may be processed by service providers that assist us with Website hosting, form processing, spam prevention, email delivery, customer communications, or related business functions.
We ask that you not submit sensitive personal information through general Website contact forms unless specifically requested.
10. Online Store and Purchases
The Website may provide links to an online store hosted at barcart.15stars.com or another third-party ecommerce platform.
When you follow a link to the online store, your interaction with that store—including product selection, account creation, checkout, payment, shipping, fulfillment, and other ecommerce activities—may involve additional information collection and third-party service providers.
Information collected directly through an ecommerce service may be governed by additional terms and privacy disclosures presented through that service.
We encourage you to review the applicable privacy information provided during the shopping and checkout process.
11. How We Share Information
We do not disclose personal information to third parties merely for their independent use except as described in this Privacy Policy, with your direction or consent, or as otherwise permitted or required by law.
We may disclose information to service providers and business partners that perform services on our behalf or support our Website and business operations, including providers involved with:
- Website hosting and infrastructure;
- Website analytics;
- Advertising and campaign measurement;
- Email and newsletter delivery;
- Contact form processing;
- Spam and security protection;
- Embedded video and media;
- Ecommerce and order fulfillment; and
- Professional, technical, or administrative services.
These providers may process information according to their own privacy policies as well as their contractual relationships with us.
We may also disclose information when we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law, legal process, or governmental requests; investigate fraud or security incidents; protect the rights, property, or safety of 15 STARS, our visitors, or others; or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
If 15 STARS or relevant business assets are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale, or similar business transaction, information may be disclosed or transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
12. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including providing requested communications or services, maintaining business and security records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and satisfying legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
Retention periods vary depending on the type of information, the purpose for which it was collected, and applicable legal requirements.
Cookie durations vary by technology. Please consult our Cookie Policy for the currently identified cookies and their typical durations.
13. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
No website, Internet transmission, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted to or maintained by us.
14. Your Privacy Rights and Choices
Depending on where you reside and applicable law, you may have rights concerning your personal information. These rights may include the ability to request that we:
- Confirm whether we process personal information about you;
- Provide access to certain personal information;
- Correct inaccurate personal information;
- Delete certain personal information;
- Provide a portable copy of certain information;
- Limit or opt out of certain uses or disclosures of personal information; or

These rights are not absolute and may be subject to legal exceptions, verification requirements, and differences among applicable state or other privacy laws.
You may also withdraw or modify consent to optional cookies using the Website’s Privacy Preferences controls.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights available to you under applicable law.
15. California and Other U.S. State Privacy Rights
Residents of certain U.S. states may have additional rights under applicable comprehensive consumer privacy laws.
Depending upon the law applicable to you and whether 15 STARS is subject to that law, these rights may include access, correction, deletion, portability, and the right to opt out of certain processing involving targeted advertising, sale, sharing, or profiling.
Our use of advertising and analytics technologies may be treated differently under different state privacy laws. Where legally required and technically applicable, we provide privacy controls that allow visitors to limit optional advertising and analytics technologies.
A request may need to be verified before it can be completed. We may also retain information when permitted or required by law.
16. Do Not Track and Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers provide “Do Not Track” settings or other privacy signals. There is not currently a single universally adopted standard governing all such browser signals.
Where an applicable privacy law requires recognition of a legally valid browser-based opt-out preference signal, we will endeavor to process that signal as required by applicable law and according to the capabilities of our Website and privacy management systems.
You may also make choices directly through the Privacy Preferences controls available on the Website.
17. Children’s Privacy and Legal Drinking Age
15 STARS markets alcoholic beverage products. The Website and our marketing communications are intended for adults of legal drinking age.
We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information through the Website from individuals who are under the legal drinking age applicable to them.
If we learn that personal information has been collected from a person in circumstances where applicable law requires its deletion, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
Please do not share or forward alcohol-related content from 15 STARS to anyone under the legal drinking age.
18. Third-Party Websites
The Website contains links to websites and services operated by third parties, including our online shopping experience and social media or embedded-media providers.
