This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and disclose your information when you visit our website https://txwestcoas.com/ (the “Site”), purchase our Christmas wreath products, or interact with our services. By using our Site or services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.​

1. Information We Collect​

We may collect two types of information to provide and improve our services: Personal Information (information that identifies you) and Non-Personal Information (anonymous data that does not identify you).​

1.1 Personal Information​

We collect Personal Information when you voluntarily provide it to us, such as during checkout, account registration, or contacting our support team. This may include:​

  • Contact details: Full name, email address (e.g., liuhao1134@icloud.com), phone number (e.g., +1 (917) 892-9208), and shipping/billing address (e.g., 8507 De Moss Drive, Houston, TX, USA).​
  • Payment information: Credit/debit card details or other payment method data (note: we do not store full payment details—this information is processed securely by our third-party payment providers, who adhere to industry security standards).​
  • Account information: If you create an account, we may collect your username, password (encrypted), and preferences (e.g., favorite Christmas wreath styles).​
  • Communication data: If you contact us via email, phone, or the Site’s contact form, we may store your communication content and related details (e.g., inquiry subject, date of contact) to respond to your needs.​

1.2 Non-Personal Information​

We automatically collect Non-Personal Information to analyze Site performance, improve user experience, and optimize our services. This may include:​

  • Technical data: Device type (e.g., smartphone, laptop), operating system (e.g., iOS, Windows), browser name, IP address (anonymized where possible), and internet service provider.​
  • Usage data: Pages visited on the Site (e.g., product pages for Holiday Bell Wreaths or Ochine Snow Flocked Christmas Wreaths), time spent on each page, click-through rates, search queries, and referral sources (e.g., how you found our Site).​
  • Aggregated data: Combined, non-identifiable data (e.g., “50% of users viewed our 12” artificial wreath collection”) used to identify trends and enhance our product offerings.​

2. How We Use Your Information​

We use your information solely for legitimate business purposes, as outlined below:​

  • Process and fulfill orders: To confirm your purchase, arrange shipping (including sharing your address with trusted logistics partners), send order updates (e.g., “your wreath has shipped”), and process returns or refunds.​
  • Provide customer support: To respond to your inquiries, resolve issues (e.g., tracking a missing order), and assist with product questions (e.g., “what materials are used in your snow-flocked wreaths?”).​
  • Improve our services: To analyze user behavior (via Non-Personal Information) and enhance the Site’s functionality, product selection, and pricing (e.g., adding popular wreath styles based on user interest).​
  • Send marketing communications: With your explicit consent, we may send you emails about exclusive promotions (e.g., “10% off your first order”), new product launches (e.g., “new Christmas bell wreaths in stock”), or seasonal updates. You can opt out of these communications at any time (see Section 6 below).​
  • Ensure security and compliance: To detect and prevent fraud (e.g., unauthorized payment attempts), protect the Site from cyber threats, and comply with applicable laws (e.g., tax regulations, data protection laws like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) or General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for EU users).​

3. How We Share Your Information​

We do not sell, rent, or trade your Personal Information to third parties for marketing purposes. We may share your information only with trusted partners who assist us in operating our business, and these partners are required to protect your data:​

  • Payment processors: Third-party providers (e.g., PayPal, Stripe) who securely process your payment details to complete transactions. These providers do not use your information for any purpose other than processing payments.​
  • Logistics partners: Shipping companies (e.g., USPS, UPS) who need your address to deliver your order. We only share the minimum information required to fulfill delivery (e.g., your name and shipping address).​
  • Service providers: Vendors who help us maintain the Site (e.g., web hosting companies), analyze data (e.g., Google Analytics, using anonymized data), or manage customer support tools. These providers are bound by confidentiality agreements.​
  • Legal authorities: We may disclose your information if required by law (e.g., a court order, subpoena) or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or the rights of others (e.g., investigating fraud).​

4. How We Protect Your Information​

We implement industry-standard security measures to safeguard your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure:​

  • Encryption: Sensitive data (e.g., payment details, account passwords) is encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology when transmitted via the Site.​
  • Secure storage: Personal Information is stored on secure servers with restricted access (e.g., password-protected systems, firewalls). We do not store full payment details—this data is handled by our PCI DSS-compliant payment partners.​
  • Access controls: Only authorized TX West Coast employees (e.g., customer support, order processing teams) have access to your Personal Information, and they are required to follow strict data protection protocols.​

While we take all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online transmission or storage system is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we continuously update our security practices to minimize risks.​
