INTRODUCTION The 1-800-FLOWERS.COM® family of brands, recognizes and respects the importance of maintaining the privacy of our customers, registered members, gift recipients and users (each of which may be referred to, individually and where applicable, as “you”), and has established this privacy notice (“Privacy Notice”) as a result. The purpose of this Privacy Notice is to inform you of:
This Privacy Notice is part of the Terms of Use ,which governs your use of our website located at www.1800flowers.com, as well as, the websites of our Affiliated Brands (see below) linked to this Privacy Notice (the "Website") and the Service. The Service is operated by 800-Flowers, Inc. (the "Company"). "Affiliates" are persons or entities directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, or in the same corporate family as, 800-Flowers, Inc. This Privacy Notice does not cover information you provide to our independently owned and operated franchised retail stores. A listing of our Affiliated Brands can be found here. For purposes of this Privacy Notice, except as noted below and unless you are explicitly notified otherwise, the Company is the controller of your personal information, and where the processing of personal information is also undertaken by our Affiliated Brands with whom you engage, the Affiliated Brands are joint controllers with the Company for your personal information. Joint controllers are all responsible for deciding how your personal information is held and used. Please Note: You must be 18 years or older and the age of majority in your place of residence to use, subscribe to, or register for the Service as a member (or 21 years or older in the event that you place a request for transmission of an order for a product containing alcohol). The Service is a general audience site and we do not knowingly collect, maintain or disclose personal information from or about children. If you are a parent or guardian of a child and become aware that your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us as described in this Privacy Notice and we will take reasonable steps to promptly remove any such information.
Accessibility Statement The Company is committed to making our Website's content accessible and user friendly to everyone. If you are having difficulty viewing or navigating the content on the Website, or notice any content, feature, or functionality that you believe is not fully accessible to people with disabilities, please call us at 1-800-356-9377 or email our team at Accessibility@1800flowers.com with “Disabled Access” in the subject line and provide a description of the specific feature you feel is not fully accessible or a suggestion for improvement. We take your feedback seriously and will consider it as we evaluate ways to accommodate all of our customers and our overall accessibility policies. Additionally, while we do not control such vendors, we strongly encourage vendors of third-party digital content to provide content that is accessible and user friendly.
WHY DO WE GATHER INFORMATION? The Company and the Service gathers information, including personal information, mainly to communicate with you and to process your orders, but also to help improve our products and customer service, to provide an enhanced and more personalized shopping experience and to inform you, and your gift and message recipients, of special offers and discounts from the 1-800-FLOWERS.COM® family of brands, Company Affiliates (as that term is defined below and in our Terms of Use) and selected third parties. For individuals subject to the General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union (“EU”) or the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (“UK”), our processing of your personal information is justified on the following legal bases:
This Privacy Notice applies to all visitors, including EU and UK residents. Additional information on our privacy practices with respect to EU and UK residents in particular can be viewed here.
WHAT INFORMATION DO WE GATHER? Depending on how you interact with us, we collect some or all of the following categories of information:
HOW DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM YOU? A. In general. We collect information when you:
The information may be provided directly to us by you when placing an order or participating in a survey, etc., or, as is true of most websites, we gather certain device and usage information automatically. This information may include internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, device information, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, the files viewed on our site (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data to analyze trends and administer the Website. This information may be collected by us even if an order, registration, or other process is started but not completed or is otherwise cancelled. We may also gather information about you from third parties, such as social media sites, data co-ops, and demographics data providers. B. How we use "Cookies" and "Action Tags." A "cookie" is a small data file sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer. We use cookies primarily to let us know that you are a prior customer, user or registered member and to provide certain features to you. Most web browsers allow you to instruct the browser to prevent the use of cookies. However, if you disable this feature, certain aspects of the Services, such as the shopping basket, may not function properly. If you are accessing our Website from outside the United States, you may manage your cookie preferences directly through the provided tool. We have relationships with third parties who may collect or receive information directly from the cookies placed by our Service on your computer to assist in analyzing our business and customers, and to give credit to other sites that direct traffic to our Website for marketing purposes. Our Service may also use a web technology called "action tags" (also called single pixel gifs, web beacons, local storage objects, and local shared objects) to track purchase, usage and other web activity information. Action tags may be used to provide data to third parties for tracking purposes. In addition, third parties may set their own cookies and tags through our Service (such as through interest-based advertising, described below). We do not control such third parties or their privacy practices. If you do not want third parties to be able to use such methods, you can modify your browser settings to limit such access.
As a user who has downloaded our Company’s mobile application(s), we may from time to time send you push notifications to your device to communicate with you and advise you of current offers and promotions. To ensure that you receive timely notification of such communications and promotions, we need to collect certain information from your device as indicated above. If at any time you do not wish to receive these types of communications, you may turn them off on your device. C. Mobile Analytics. We use mobile analytics software to allow us to better understand the functionality of our Company’s mobile application(s) on your device. This software may record information such as how often you use the application, the events that occur within the application, usage, performance data, and the source from which the application was downloaded. We do not link the information we store within the analytics software to any personal information you submit within the mobile application. We may also work with third parties that collect data about your use of the Website and other sites or apps over time for non-advertising purposes, subject to their privacy policies. We use third party analytics such as Google Analytics to gather and analyze aggregated anonymous user information. For more information about Google Analytics, please visit www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. You can opt out of Google’s collection and processing of data generated by your use of the Sites by going to http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. D. From Other Businesses Who Ask Us to Process Your Information On occasion, our Company and Affiliates may operate as a data processor of your personal information rather than a controller. For example, our corporate gifting program enables companies to send gifts to their employees, clients, or other persons, which involves the provision of certain elements of personal information. We then process this information in order to send gifts to those persons. In situations like this, when we act as a processor, the privacy statement of the relevant controller and our agreements with such businesses or entities will govern our processing of the applicable personal information.
HOW WE USE/SHARE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT We use information we collect to communicate with you, to process your orders, to improve our products and services (such as by responding to your feedback), to conduct research (such as statistics on favorite -- i.e., most ordered -- products), to provide an enhanced and more personalized shopping experience (for instance, to provide event reminders, such as birthdays), to inform you and your gift recipients of offers and discounts from the 1-800-FLOWERS.COM® family of brands and Company Affiliates, and to enable you to receive credits for purchases under loyalty or buying programs that you have joined. We may also use your information, as necessary or appropriate in our view, to operate the Service, to respond to your inquiries, to process orders or registrations, and to conduct promotions, contests, and sweepstakes in which you participate. We may combine information we receive from you via our Service with information from our Affiliates and third parties. We use the combined information to enhance and personalize your shopping experience with us (for example, by keeping your profile up-to-date) and to communicate with you in accordance with this Privacy Notice. We may also use your personal information as indicated at the time of collection or with your consent (where required by applicable law). In addition, as provided below, the Company may use or share your data with both affiliated and unrelated third parties, for the purposes so identified. A. Affiliate Data Sharing. We may provide your information to our Company Affiliates for use in connection with their businesses, including sending you offers and promotions. However, in connection with information collected under this Privacy Notice, they are required to comply with this Privacy Notice. The following categories of information may be shared with our Company Affiliates:
B. e-Gifting Service.
C. Sharing with Others. We may also share your information with third parties, including service providers engaged to provide services on our behalf, and may authorize them to use such information for our benefit, for instance, to process your order and to better communicate and provide appropriate offers to you and your gift recipient(s). Examples of our information sharing include:
In addition, we may make such information (except for credit/debit card numbers, expiration dates and CVV codes, unless you consent otherwise), including aggregated information, available to selected third parties for other reasons that we may describe to you at the time of collection. D. Change of Business. We may transfer your information in connection with the sale, lease, license, assignment (of part, or all, of our business), acquisition, merger, reorganization or change of control of the Company, our Affiliates, or the division responsible for the Service with which your information is associated, or as part of a bankruptcy proceeding. E. For Legal Purposes. In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal information in response to lawful requests from public authorities, including to comply with national security or law enforcement requirements. We reserve the right to disclose information we collect from you, or that you provide to us, as required by law, in response to legal process and law enforcement requests, when we believe, in good faith, that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, respond to a government or legal request, comply with a government requirement, or to protect the rights or property of the Company, its Affiliates, users, customers, recipients, Members, Sponsors, Providers, Licensors, Merchants and Associates (as these terms are defined in the Terms of Use ). F. Social Media Please note that any personal information you reveal or post on one of our public forums (as defined in the Terms of Use ), such as a message board, chat room, blog, discussion group, folder, survey, contest, sweepstakes, user review and rate forum, and all User Submissions, are not protected by this Privacy Notice and may be collected, shared and used by us, and with third parties, including to contact you. Information you provide or post on our public forums, you disclose at your own risk.
WHERE WE STORE YOUR INFORMATION Our Service is operated in the United States and internationally. If you are located outside the United States, please be aware that any information you provide to us may be transferred to, and stored in, any country in which we conduct business, including the United States, the EU and the UK. By using the Service or otherwise providing us with information, you hereby consent to this transfer. At times, for orders originating within the EU or UK or being delivered to the EU or UK, we may use third parties located within the EU or UK to process such orders. In so doing, we take steps to ensure those entities will process your information in a manner consistent with this Privacy Notice. Although personal information collected by us through the Service will be used by us in accordance with this Privacy Notice, laws generally applicable to the protection of personal information in the U.S. or elsewhere may not be as stringent as those in your home country.
HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION We may retain your information in accordance with our data retention policies and for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements, or until you request us to stop using it. We may, however, keep some of your personal information to ensure that we comply with your request not to use your personal information or comply with your right to erasure. For example, we must keep your request to be erased, even if it includes your personal information, until such time as you are no longer our customer. If you have questions about our data retention policies, please contact us as noted below.
HOW YOUR INFORMATION IS SECURED The security of your personal information is important to us. If you have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can contact us at PrivacySupport@1800flowers.com. If you place an order on our Website, it encrypts the credit/debit card number you submit prior to transmission over the Internet using Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption technology. This technology works best when the website is viewed using Microsoft Edge®, Google Chrome®, Mozilla Firefox®, and Apple Safari® browsers. However, no transmission of data over the Internet or any other network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Although we make reasonable efforts to safeguard personal information once we receive it, we cannot warrant the security of information we receive. Portions of the Service (such as our Member registration and Address Book) may require registration and log-in processes in which you will select a user ID and password (collectively, the "Password"). Passwords provided to you by us are the confidential property of the Company and may be used by you solely for your individual use of the Service (and otherwise as specified by us). You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any Password and for all activities that occur using your Password, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your Password or accounts.
HOW TO LIMIT THE USE OF OR MODIFY YOUR INFORMATION We want to communicate with you only to the extent you want to hear from us. Any promotional email we send to you will include an “unsubscribe” link to use or a link to opt-out of receiving further promotional emails from the sender. If you wish to set your preferences concerning promotional communications, or you prefer not to have your personal information shared with third parties, please let us know by contacting us as noted below in the “How to Contact Us” section and identify your preferences regarding promotional communications and the sharing of your contact information.
