Privacy & Security

1. Introduction

Magnolia Monaco respects your privacy. This Privacy & Security Policy explains how personal information may be collected, used, disclosed, and protected when you visit www.magnoliamonaco.com, contact us, or shop with us. This policy should be read together with our Your Privacy Choices page.

This website is operated on the Shopify ecommerce platform. Privacy choices and legal rights may differ depending on where you live.

2. Personal Information We Collect

Depending on how you use our store, we may collect:
- Contact and identity details, such as your name, email address, phone number, and shipping or billing details.
- Purchase information, such as items ordered, transactions, order status, returns, and support requests.
- Account and preference information, if you create an account or subscribe to communications.
- Device and website activity information, such as IP address, approximate location, browser, device identifiers, pages viewed, and interactions with our website.
- Information you voluntarily send us, including messages, photographs relating to product issues, and other support information.

Payment details are generally handled by payment service providers rather than stored by us as complete card credentials.

3. How Information Is Collected

We receive information you provide at checkout, through contact forms, account functions, and email. We may also receive relevant transaction, fraud-prevention, shipping-status, or technical information from the services used to operate our store.

Website technologies, including cookies and similar identifiers, may collect technical and interaction information, subject to applicable consent and privacy settings.

4. Why We Use Information

We use personal information as needed to:
- Process payments, handle orders, provide delivery updates, and respond to return requests.
- Answer questions and provide customer support.
- Maintain account and checkout functionality.
- Detect misuse, prevent fraud, and protect our store and customers.
- Understand website performance and improve shopping experiences.
- Send promotional emails or other marketing communications where permitted and, when required, with your consent.
- Comply with legal, tax, accounting, and other regulatory duties.

Where privacy law requires a legal basis, processing may rely on contract performance, legal obligations, legitimate interests, consent, or another applicable basis.

5. Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising

Our store may use essential cookies for shopping-cart and checkout functionality. Depending on the features enabled, analytics or advertising technologies may also help measure site performance and show relevant promotions across websites or services.

Some advertising activity may be considered "sharing" or "targeted advertising" under certain privacy laws. Where applicable, you may exercise choices through available privacy controls, browser settings, or by contacting us. Additional details are provided on our Your Privacy Choices page.

6. When Information May Be Shared

We may disclose information when necessary to businesses that provide ecommerce infrastructure, payment processing, order delivery, fraud prevention, website analytics, customer support, and marketing services, subject to appropriate contractual and legal safeguards. We may also disclose information to comply with legal process, protect rights, or complete a lawful business transaction when permitted.

We do not claim that all disclosures are excluded from the definitions of "sale" or "sharing" under every privacy law. Applicable opt-out rights are explained below.

7. Data Security

We use commercially reasonable measures designed to protect personal information and rely on secure services for key ecommerce transactions. No internet-based system or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot promise absolute security. If you believe your account or information has been compromised, contact us promptly.

8. How Long We Retain Information

We retain information only as reasonably needed to provide services, keep business records, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect against fraud. Retention periods vary based on the nature of the information and applicable legal requirements. When no longer required, information is deleted, anonymized, or otherwise handled in accordance with applicable law.

9. International Information Transfers

Your information may be processed or stored in countries different from your own when services used to operate the store are located elsewhere. Where required, we use or rely upon appropriate mechanisms and safeguards for such transfers.

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or a copy of certain personal information; object to or restrict some processing; withdraw consent; or opt out of certain targeted advertising or data sharing activities.

To submit a request, email info@magnoliamonaco.com with the subject "Privacy Request". We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request, and some information may be retained when legally required. We will process requests within the periods required by applicable law.

11. Marketing Preferences

If you receive promotional emails from us, you can unsubscribe using the link provided in the message. Transactional messages about an order or service may still be sent when necessary. Unsubscribing from marketing email does not necessarily change cookie-based advertising preferences.

12. Children's Privacy

Our online store is intended for a general audience and not directed to children. We do not knowingly seek personal information from children in violation of applicable law. If you believe we have collected such information, contact us so we can review the request.

13. Third-Party Links

Our site may contain links to external websites. Their privacy practices are governed by their own notices, and we encourage you to review those notices when leaving our website.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our services, technology, or legal requirements. The revised policy will be published on this page with its updated date.
