and how we protect your privacy. We won’t let you down!

 

Essential information we collect

In operating our store, it is essential for us to capture some information about your device, such as your IP address and information related to your visit when you browse our store. For example, this might include time-stamp, the last page or product you visited, the indication that you logged in. We do that in order to:

● remember who you are after you log in so that you do not need to authenticate at each click;

● monitor if our website is running with the high performance we are dedicated to providing;

● let you browse between products without having to start back from the home page at each click;

● remember if you put something in your shopping cart before you decide to checkout; and

● control that your data is processed securely.

 

We call the information mentioned above “essential information” and we collect it through the use of cookies. Cookies are small text files that most websites use. A website places cookies in the web browser and then reads the information collected through the cookies every time the user performs an action. We use cookies. Without enabling this mechanism and this kind of cookies (first-party cookies), we could not provide you with the smooth experience that you expect while you are navigating.

 

Order information you expressly provide

If you buy something from our store, we will need more specific information about you. To fully process your order and ship the merchandise you selected, we need your personal data such as your first and last name, your email address and your shipping and billing address. We also use your contact and order information to send you communication related to the processing of your order. We will ask you to provide this information in our “checkout page” before letting you finalize your purchase with the payment.

 

Accounts

You can sign up for an account if you’d like. This will make us happy because it confirms your interest in our store. It should also make you happy because we will remember your information and, when you decide to buy our products, you do not have to provide all of your information over again -- you just have to log-in. Before registering your account, we will ask you to expressly provide your consent to this privacy policy. Only if you give us your consent, we will open your account. We also give you the possibility to easily withdraw your consent and delete your account. Just connect with us at contact@lanternandwren.com.

 

Partial Purchases

If you have started to buy one of our products, but have not completed the purchase, you may have provided partial information, such as your email. In that case, we might send you an email to remind you about your interest. If you are not comfortable in receiving further emails of this kind, we will give you a simple opportunity to opt-out. Your privacy means a lot to us and we will stop sending you these communications right away.

 

Reviews

If you have completed a purchase, we will send you an email to ask you to review the product you bought. We want to be sure that whether you love your purchase or have a complaint, you can share your opinion with other customers.

 

Personalization

We also use some specific information related to your visit, such as the timestamp of your visit, the page or the product you viewed, where you are coming from (if you came to our store because you clicked on an advertisement or you just opened our direct link). This is very similar to the “essential information,” but we use it to provide you with a personalized experience. The information on your visit provides us with insights on your interests and allows us to send you relevant communications. We capture this information through cookies, called a "beacon," that we allow you to block. [Add a link to your cookie policy here.] We will not automatically add you to our newsletter unless and until you personally opt-in.

 

Other uses of personal data

We do not sell or rent your data, ever. We understand the importance of keeping personal data secure and safe and only share limited personal data with companies we need to in order to maintain our business. We ship through UPS, FedEx, and USPS, and so we share your shipping information with them only to complete the shipment of your order. We may share data with Facebook using our pixel for advertising purposes, or if we sell our business (no plans to, though!). Google analytics may receive some of your data for demographics and marketing purposes.

MailChimp will maintain your email address on our email list if you have signed up for our periodic emails. You can unsubscribe at any time. You may receive an order update through MailChimp (such as shipped, tracking, etc.) as well.

 

How do we process your information?

Partnering with highly specialized external companies allows us to focus on what we do best: selling great products.
