How we use your information
We use your personal information where necessary to:
Process and fulfil your orders

Contact you about your order, including where we need to confirm delivery details
Respond to enquiries and provide customer service

Where you have given your consent, we may also use your information to send you marketing communications. You can unsubscribe from these communications at any time.
Our legal basis for using your information
Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful reason for processing your personal information.
Depending on the circumstances, we may process your information because it is necessary to fulfil a contract with you, because we have a legitimate business interest in doing so, because we need to comply with a legal obligation, or because you have given us your consent.
Sharing your information
We do not sell or rent your personal information.
We may share information with trusted third parties where necessary to operate Beau Floral and fulfil your order. These may include:
Website and ecommerce providers
Payment processors
Delivery or courier services
IT, website and hosting providers
Professional advisers, such as accountants
Other service providers who help us operate our business
We only share the information reasonably necessary for those providers to perform their services.
Our website and online store are operated using Squarespace. Information submitted through the website may therefore be processed by Squarespace in accordance with its own privacy and security practices.
Delivery recipient information
If you place an order for flowers or a gift to be delivered to another person, you may provide us with their name, address, telephone number and other delivery information.
You are responsible for ensuring that you have the right to provide this information to us. We will use the recipient's information only where reasonably necessary to fulfil and deliver your order or resolve any delivery-related issues.
How long we keep your information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including fulfilling orders, responding to enquiries and meeting our legal, accounting and tax obligations.
When we no longer need your information, we will securely delete or anonymise it where appropriate.
Cookies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to help it function correctly, remember preferences, understand how visitors use the website and, where applicable, support marketing and analytics.
Some cookies are necessary for the website to operate, while others may require your consent.
You can manage your cookie preferences through the cookie settings available on our website and through your browser settings.
Keeping your information secure
We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure or alteration.
However, no online service or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Third-party links
Our website may contain links to other websites or services. Beau Floral is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites, and we recommend reviewing their privacy policies before providing personal information.
