1. Information We Collect

​

We collect personal information from you in various ways, including when you place an order, create an account, subscribe to our newsletter, contact us, or browse our Site. The types of personal information we may collect include:

• Identifiers: Name, email address, postal address, phone number, and account username/password.

• Payment Information: Credit card details or other payment method information (processed securely by third-party payment processors; we do not store full payment card numbers).

• Commercial Information: Records of products purchased, browsing history, search history, and interactions with our Site.

• Internet or Network Activity: IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and referring URLs.

• Geolocation Data: Approximate location based on IP address or shipping address (we do not collect precise geolocation without consent).

• Other Information: Any information you voluntarily provide, such as in customer inquiries or reviews.

We may also collect non-personal information, such as aggregated or anonymized data that does not identify you individually.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information (e.g., racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, health data, or biometric data) unless voluntarily provided by you.

​

2. How We Collect Information

​

We collect information through:

• Direct Interactions: When you provide it voluntarily (e.g., forms, purchases, communications).

• Automated Technologies: Cookies, web beacons, pixels, and similar tools to enhance Site functionality, analytics, and marketing. You can manage cookie preferences via your browser settings.

• Third Parties: Analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics), advertising networks, payment processors, and shipping partners.

​

3. How We Use Your Information

​

We use your personal information for legitimate business purposes, including:

• Processing and fulfilling orders (payment, shipping, customer support).

• Managing your account and providing personalized services.

• Communicating with you (order confirmations, updates, promotional emails—you can unsubscribe anytime).

• Improving our Site, products, and services via analytics.

• Preventing fraud, ensuring security, and complying with legal obligations.

• Marketing and advertising, including targeted ads (subject to your opt-out rights).

We do not "sell" personal information in the traditional sense (for money). However, certain data sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" under some state laws, and we provide opt-out mechanisms where required.

​

4. Sharing Your Information

​

We share personal information only as necessary for business operations and do not share it for unrelated purposes without consent.

We may share with:

• Service Providers: Payment processors (e.g., Stripe, PayPal), shipping carriers (e.g., USPS, UPS), analytics tools (e.g., Google), and email providers (e.g., Mailchimp).

• Professional Advisors: Lawyers, accountants, or auditors for compliance.

• Legal Requirements: Government authorities or law enforcement if required by law (e.g., subpoenas).

All third parties are contractually required to protect your information and use it only for the services they provide.

​

5. Data Security

​

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards (e.g., encryption for payments, secure servers) to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

​

6. Your Privacy Rights

​

Depending on your state of residence and applicable laws, you may have rights to:

• Access/know what personal information we hold about you.

• Correct inaccurate information.

• Delete your personal information (subject to exceptions, e.g., for completed transactions or legal requirements).

• Opt-out of "sales," sharing for targeted advertising, or certain profiling.

• Portability of your data.

• Non-discrimination for exercising rights.

• Limit use of sensitive information (where applicable).

Many state laws provide these rights to residents of states with comprehensive privacy laws (e.g., California under CCPA/CPRA, Oregon under OCPA, and others).

To exercise rights, contact us at bitebloombotanicals@gmail.com. We will verify your identity and respond within the timeframe required by law (typically 45 days). You may appeal denials, and in some cases, contact your state Attorney General.

We honor universal opt-out signals (e.g., Global Privacy Control) where required.

​

7. Children's Privacy

​

Our Site is not directed to children under 13 (or 16 in some contexts). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental consent, in compliance with COPPA. If we learn of such collection, we will delete it.

​

8. Do Not Track Signals and Cookies

​

We respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals where required. You can manage cookies through browser settings.

​

9. International Users

​

Our Site is based in the U.S., and data is processed here. If you are outside the U.S., your information will be transferred to and processed in the U.S., where privacy laws may differ.

​

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for business purposes or legal requirements (e.g., order records for tax purposes).
