PREPPER'S RESOURCE
PRIVACY POLICY
LAST UPDATED: [09/03/2026]
YOUR PRIVACY MATTERS
Prepper's Resource believes preparedness should not require giving up your privacy.
Our product is being designed around local, offline operation. At the same time, our online store must process certain information in order to accept orders, process payments, provide customer service, ship products, maintain security, and operate our business.
This Privacy Policy explains the difference and describes how information may be handled when you interact with Prepper's Resource.
THE PREPPER'S RESOURCE OFFLINE PRODUCT
Prepper's Resource is designed so that its included core preparedness resources and supported local AI capabilities can operate offline on compatible devices.
When using supported offline AI features, processing is intended to occur locally on your device rather than requiring your questions, prompts, photographs, or other AI interactions to be transmitted to a cloud AI service for normal operation.
An internet connection is not required for normal use of the included core offline features once the product has been properly set up on a supported device.
This is an important part of the Prepper's Resource design:
Your AI.
Your information.
Your devices.
OFFLINE AI INTERACTIONS
When you use Prepper's Resource entirely offline, the product is designed so that normal local AI interactions do not need to be transmitted to Prepper's Resource over the internet.
This may include supported:
• AI conversations and prompts
• Preparedness questions
• Searches of locally stored preparedness resources
• Image and photograph interpretation
• Other locally processed AI functions
Because these functions are designed to operate locally, an internet outage does not prevent the supported offline system from functioning.
PRODUCT UPDATES
Prepper's Resource may occasionally release significant software, AI, security, compatibility, or preparedness-content updates.
Internet access may be used to download an available update.
Downloading an update is separate from normal offline operation of the product.
If an update system or service collects information in the future, any applicable privacy information will be disclosed as appropriate.

However, no internet transmission, website, database, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Customers should also take reasonable precautions to protect their own accounts, devices, passwords, and personal information.
