Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us at Harvest Quay Quarry
Information We Collect
When you reach out for corporate flower arrangements or gift services, we gather information you choose to share. This includes your name, company name, email, phone number, delivery addresses, and any specific floral requirements. Payment details are collected when you place orders, though processing is securely handled by our payment partners.
For our corporate clients, we may obtain additional business details such as company registration information, preferred delivery times, and budget needs to help us tailor our service to your corporate requirements.
Our site gathers certain technical data automatically when you visit. This includes your IP address, browser type, device information, and how you navigate the site. We use this data to enhance site performance and understand how clients discover our services.
How We Use Your Information
We primarily use your personal information to fulfill flower orders and deliver excellent service. This includes processing orders, arranging deliveries, sending order confirmations, and following up to ensure your satisfaction.
- Process and fulfill your flower orders and gift arrangements
- Inform you about order status and delivery timelines
- Provide customer support and respond to inquiries
- Improve our services based on your feedback and preferences
- Share relevant updates about our offerings (with your consent)
- Maintain records for business and legal compliance
We also utilize aggregated, non-personal data to understand market trends and refine our operations. For instance, we might analyze which types of arrangements are most popular in different seasons to better prepare our inventory.
With your explicit consent, we may send information about seasonal offerings, special promotions, or new services that could interest your business. You can opt out of these communications at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in our emails or contacting us directly.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. Your data remains within our business ecosystem and is shared only as necessary to provide our services or to comply with legal requirements.
We collaborate with trusted service providers who assist us in delivering our services. This includes payment processors, delivery partners, and flower suppliers. These partners are contractually obligated to protect your information and use it solely for the services they provide to us.
We may disclose your information if required by United Kingdom law, court orders, or government regulations. This includes compliance with GST regulations, business licensing, and other legal obligations affecting our operations in Manchester and across United Kingdom.
Data Security and Protection
We treat data security with utmost seriousness, implementing multiple layers of protection. Our systems use encryption for sensitive data transmission, secure servers for storage, and regular security updates to guard against threats.
We employ physical security measures for our office systems and limit access to personal information to staff who need it for their work. Our team receives ongoing privacy and data handling training.
Payment details are processed through secure, encrypted systems that meet industry standards. We do not store full credit card numbers on our systems; this information is handled by certified payment processors specialized in secure financial transactions.
While we maintain strong security measures, no system is entirely risk-free. We continuously monitor and update our security practices to address evolving threats and uphold the highest protection standards.
Your Rights and Choices
You have several rights regarding your personal information. You can request access to the data we hold, ask for corrections to inaccurate information, or request deletion of your data when allowed by law.
- Access your personal information and understand how we use it
- Request corrections to inaccurate or outdated information
- Ask us to delete your personal information (subject to business and legal requirements)
- Opt out of marketing communications while continuing to receive service-related messages
- Request details about how your data has been shared
- File complaints about our privacy practices
We keep your information only for as long as needed for business and legal purposes. Order records are retained for accounting and warranty needs, while marketing preferences remain until you request removal.
When we no longer require your data, we securely delete or anonymize it. Some information may be kept longer if required by United Kingdom business laws or for legitimate business interests like fraud prevention.
