SEAFOAM LAVENDER COMPANY / SEAFOAM LAVENDER FARM, LTD. PRIVACY POLICY

Scope
This privacy policy describes the information we collect via the Seafoam Lavender web site (e-commerce store) and social media accounts, and how we collect and use that information. 

Personal Information
Personal information is recorded information about an identifiable individual. Personal information includes things such as an individual's name, address, email address and phone number.

Collection
When you send us electronic mail, we collect your email address and your message so that we may reply to you. We recommend that sensitive personal information not be sent unencrypted over the Internet or by e-mail.

When you visit our website, the web server collects a small amount of information to facilitate its operation. For example, the website advanced search function collects information to remember the information you submitted for the search. IP addresses are collected to identify unauthorized attempts to change information or damage our systems. We do not capture or store personal information such as your name or home address while you visit and use our website.

Seafoam Lavender also utilizes “X” (formerly called “Twitter,”) Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, which are public, third-party social media providers. Personal information that you might provide to any of these social media sites is not hosted on our server. We recommend that X, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok users familiarize themselves with the social media provider’s terms of service and privacy policies.

Web Analytics
Seafoam Lavender uses Shopify and Google Analytics, third party services, to analyze non-identifiable web traffic data with the purpose of improving the services we offer. We own and store the data that is generated on our secure web server. The collected data will not be shared with any other party for any other purpose.

Seafoam Lavender may collect the following information to assist us with improving the website:

  • The pages accessed on our site and links you clicked on
