Privacy Policy

FLORA + MOON IS COMMITTED TO PROTECTING YOUR PRIVACY. This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes how we use, collect, process, and share information obtained through the website at http://www.floraandmoon.com (the “Site”).

Why share our Privacy Policy?

As a small business that sells and operates online, we believe that our customers’ privacy is of the utmost importance. We want you to have complete access to our policies and procedures, so that you may understand the ways you can control how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information.

What information do we collect?

We collect personal data and non-personal data about you. “Personal Data” means any data that allows someone to identify you. 

The following provides examples of the types of data we collect, and how we collect them. Note that not all of our services collect all of the data listed below. By agreeing to our Privacy Policy, you consent to the collection of the information collected below. In addition to consent, the information is collected to perform a contract, to comply with obligations, or for the legitimate interest of Flora + Moon or a third party as described below.

Please review their privacy policies at https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full and https://stripe.com/privacy, respectively, to better understand their practices. The privacy policy of these third-party companies applies to their collection, use and disclosure of your information.

• In addition to the information listed above under “Purchasing on our Site,” we also may collect information about gift recipients (i.e., name and shipping address) so that we can fulfill the gift purchase. The information we collect about gift recipients is not used for marketing purposes.

• Email Newsletters

• All customers have the option to sign up for our promotional email newsletter from our Site homepage, at checkout below the email field, via an external landing page, or in person via an email sign-up list. We will never automatically subscribe you to our promotional email newsletter without your permission.

We also automatically receive your computer’s device ID (“Device ID” means an ID that is unique to the device or browser on which you access our Site), internet protocol (“IP”) address (a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet, which may vary from session to session), domain name, and date/time stamp for your visit. This helps us know more about your browser and operating system. You may, however, visit our site anonymously.

Do we use “Cookies”?

Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart. They are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current Site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about Site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better Site experiences and tools in the future. We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our Site visitors and to serve advertisements on our behalf on the internet. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.

You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Firefox or Google Chrome) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies. If you turn cookies off, you won't have access to many features that make your Site experience more efficient and some of our services will not function properly.

How do we use your information?

We may use the information we collect from you when you purchase products, enter a contest or promotion, respond to marketing communication, browse the Site, or use certain other Site features in the following ways:

• To personalize your Site experience and to allow us to deliver the type of content and product offerings in which you are most interested.

• To allow us to better service you in responding to your customer service requests.

• To quickly process your transactions.

• To administer a contest, promotion, survey, or other Site feature.

• To improve our services to you.

• To respond to your inquiries related to support, or other requests, and to send promotional emails to those that request or authorize them.

• To conduct internet advertising through third party providers.

• To track your purchase history and to contact you for account and promotional purposes.

• To detect and prevent fraud, to collect amounts owing to us and to maintain business records.

How do we protect visitor information?

We realize that our customers trust us to protect their Personal Data. We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems and are required to keep the information confidential. When you place orders or access your personal information, we offer the use of a secure server. All sensitive information you supply is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our databases to be only accessed as stated above. Credit card payment is processed through PayPal or Stripe. For more information visit the Squarespace Privacy Policy. While we attempt to protect the information in our possession, no security system is perfect, and we cannot promise that information about you will remain secure in all circumstances.

Do we disclose the information we collect to third parties?

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to third parties your Personal Data unless we provide you with advance notice, except as otherwise described below. The term "third parties" does not include our business. It also does not include website hosting partners and other parties who assist us in operating our Site (i.e., currently, our platform is “powered by” Squarespace to analyze data, process transactions, and payments, and fulfill orders), conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our Site policies, or protect ours or others' rights, property, or safety.

Third Party Tracking Companies. We share your cookies, IP address and Device ID. These third parties may also collect information directly from you as described in this Privacy Policy. The privacy policy of these third-party companies applies to their collection, use and disclosure of your information. For example, we use a tool called “Google Analytics” to collect information about use of our Sites. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit the Sites, what pages they visit when they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming to our Sites. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve the Site. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this site, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with Personal Data. Although Google Analytics places a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the Site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to this Site by disabling cookies on your browser. For more information about how Google uses data when you use the Sites, you can visit: www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

Social Networks. If you use any features made available to you on our Site by a third party (i.e, Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook, Twitter) it may result in information being collected or shared between us and the third party. For example, if you use Facebook’s “Like” feature, Facebook may register the fact that you “liked” a product and may post that information on Facebook.

Other Third-Party Service Providers. We may share your Personal Data with companies that perform services for us, such as fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mails, analyzing customer data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, investigating fraudulent activity, conducting customer surveys, and providing customer service.

 

Your Choices

You can make the following choices regarding your Personal Data:

• Promotional Emails. You may choose to provide us with your email address for the purpose of allowing us to send free newsletters, surveys, offers, and other promotional materials related to Slow Made. You can opt out of receiving these emails at any time by following the instructions in the email or by contacting us directly at floraandmoon@gmail.com. If you decide not to receive promotional emails, we may still send you service and transaction related communications.

• Behavioral Advertising On Websites. Our Site may participate in third party behavioral advertising. This means that a third party may use technology (e.g., a cookie) to collect information about your use of our Site so that they can provide advertising about products and services tailored to your interests. That advertising may appear either on our Site, or on other websites not operated by Flora + Moon. If you do not want third parties who collect information about your use of our Site or to tailor any of the advertising that you see, you can opt-out at the Digital Advertising Alliance in the US, the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada in Canada, or the European Digital Advertising Alliance in Europe.

• Links To Others Sites. Our Site may contain links to other sites. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. Note that these external sites are not operated by us. Therefore, we strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of these websites. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

• Effect Of Opting Out Of Behavioral Advertising. Please note that opting-out of behavioral advertising does not mean that you will not receive advertising while visiting our Site. It will, however, exclude you from interest-based advertising conducted through participating networks, as provided by their policies and choice mechanisms.

• Changes To Your Personal Data. Flora + Moon relies on you to update and correct your Personal Data. You can modify or delete your profile within your registered account. Please note that Flora + Moon may keep historical information and content in our backup files and archives as permitted by law and to the extent we anticipate that the information may be required in connection with the original purpose of the collection, or as otherwise permitted or required by law or our legitimate interest to comply with foreign law.

• Deletion Of Your Personal Data. Typically, we retain your Personal Data for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required for the operation of purchase transaction or permitted by law or our legitimate interest to comply with foreign law. You can, however, request that we delete your Personal Data. All requests must be directed to the contact in the “Contact Us” section below. We can also decide to delete your data at any time if we believe that the data is incomplete, inaccurate, or that our continued use and storage are contrary to our obligations to other individuals or third parties. In addition, we may keep your Personal Data and usage history as needed to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and/or enforce any of our agreements.

• Revocation Of Consent. If you revoke your consent for the processing of Personal Data, in accordance with this Privacy Policy, then you must discontinue all use of our Site and delete any accounts that you created. In some cases, we may limit or deny your request if the law permits or requires us to do so, or if we are unable to adequately verify your identity.
