Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 7, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Cottage Creek Gifts ("we", "us" or "our") collects, uses and shares your personal information when you visit www.cottage-creek.com (the "Site") or make a purchase from it.
Information we collect
Device information. When you visit the Site we automatically collect certain information about your device and how you use the Site, such as your web browser, IP address, time zone, cookies, the pages or products you view, search terms, and how you interact with the Site. We use this to load the Site correctly and to understand how it is used so we can improve it.
Order information. When you place an order we collect your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information, email address and phone number. We use this to fulfill your order, process your payment, arrange shipping, send order confirmations and invoices, communicate with you, and screen orders for risk or fraud.
Customer support information. If you contact us, we collect the information you send us so that we can answer your question.
How we share your information
We share your information only with service providers that help us run the store and fill your order, and only as needed. These include:
- Shopify, which powers our online store and processes orders and payments. You can read how Shopify handles personal information at https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy.
- Payment processors and shipping carriers, so that your payment can be taken and your order delivered.
- Advertising and analytics providers, such as Google, which help us measure how our site and ads perform. See https://policies.google.com/privacy.
We may also share information if required by law, in response to a lawful request, or to protect our rights. We do not sell your personal information for money.
Cookies
A cookie is a small file stored on your device when you visit a site. We and our service providers use cookies to keep items in your cart, remember your preferences, process checkout, and measure how the Site and our advertising perform. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may stop parts of the Site from working properly.
Advertising
We may use information about your visit to show you ads for our products on other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising from Google at https://www.google.com/settings/ads or through the Digital Advertising Alliance at https://optout.aboutads.info/.
Do Not Track
Because there is no consistent industry standard for responding to "Do Not Track" signals, we do not change how we collect and use information when we receive one.
Your rights
You can ask us what personal information we hold about you, and ask us to correct or delete it. If you live in California or the European Economic Area you may have additional rights under local law. To make a request, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before we act on a request.
Data retention
We keep order information for our records unless you ask us to delete it, subject to any legal requirements.
Children
The Site is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices or for legal or regulatory reasons. The date above shows when it was last changed.
