This will help you better understand how I collect, use, and share your Personal Information when you visit or make a purchase from www.PeachtreeCottage.com ("Site"). If I change my privacy practices, I will update this Privacy Policy page.
Two main values guide me as I develop my products and services. These values should help you better understand how I think about your information and privacy.
- YOUR INFORMATION BELONGS TO YOU
I carefully analyze what types of information I need to provide my products and services, and try to limit the information I collect to only what I really need. Where possible, I delete this information when I no longer need it. My guiding principle is that your information belongs to you, and I aim to only use your information to your benefit. - I PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION FROM OTHERS
If a third party requests your Personal Information, I will refuse to share it unless you give me permission or I am legally required to share it. When I am legally required to share your Personal Information, I will tell you in advance, unless I am legally forbidden to notify you.
PERSONAL INFORMATION I COLLECT
When you visit my Site, I automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse my Site, I collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what sites or search terms referred you to my Site, and information about how you interact with my Site. I refer to this automatically-collected information as "Device Information".
I collect Device Information using the following technologies:
- "Cookies" are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit https://www.allaboutcookies.org.
- "Log files" track actions occurring on my Site, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.
- "Web beacons", "tags" and "pixels" are electronic files used to record information about how you browse my Site.
Additionally when you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase through my Site, I collect certain information from you, including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information (including credit card numbers), email address, and phone number. I refer to this information as "Order Information".
When I talk about "Personal Information" in this Privacy Policy, I am talking about both Device Information and Order Information.
HOW I USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
I use Order Information collected to fulfill any orders placed through my Site (including processing your payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, I use this Order Information to:
- Screen orders for potential risk or fraud; and
- When in line with the preferences you have shared with me, provide you with information or advertising relating to my products or services.
I use Device Information collected to help screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and to improve and optimize my Site (for example, by generating analytics about how my customers browse and interact with my Site, and to assess the success of my marketing and advertising campaigns).
SHARING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
I share Personal Information with third parties to help me as described above. For example, I use:

Finally, I may also share Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information I receive, or to otherwise protect our rights.
