Ginger’s Bread and Sweet Shop respects your privacy. This policy explains how we handle personal information when you browse our website, create an account, sign up for emails or texts, submit forms, or order from us.

Cottage CMS powers our website and processes information on our behalf to support shopping, orders, accounts, forms, and communications. This policy takes effect when published.

Depending on how you use our website, we may collect:

• Contact and account details: Your name, email address, phone number, and account information.

• Order details: Products, customizations, event information, pickup choices, delivery or shipping addresses, and order history.

• Information you submit: Dietary information, messages, files, or photos you choose to share.

• Communication preferences: Email or text-message consent and opt-out records.

• Technical information: Your IP address, browser and device details, security events, cookies, and website activity.

The payment provider shown at checkout collects and processes your payment details. Ginger’s Bread and Sweet Shop does not receive or store your full payment-card number through this website.

We use your personal information to run our website, manage customer accounts, prepare and fulfill orders, provide customer support, respond to questions and special requests, and send order-related messages. We also use it to prevent fraud, protect our website, maintain business and tax records, and meet legal obligations.

If you sign up for marketing emails or texts, we may send product news, availability updates, and business announcements. You can withdraw your consent at any time by following the unsubscribe or opt-out instructions in our messages.

We share personal information as needed to run our business and provide our services, including with:

• Cottage CMS: To operate our website, ordering, accounts, forms, and communications.

• Payment providers, such as Square or Stripe: To process payments, refunds, and fraud checks, depending on the provider used at checkout.

• Website and messaging providers: To support hosting, security, emails, and text messages.

• Analytics or advertising providers, such as Google or Meta: Only if these optional tools are enabled on our website.

• Other recipients: When needed to fulfill your order, obtain professional services, comply with the law, protect rights and safety, or complete a business transfer.

We do not sell your personal information for money.

Our website uses essential cookies and similar tools for security, sign-in sessions, shopping carts, and checkout.

Cottage CMS website analytics is enabled by default. It measures visits and interactions using visitor and session identifiers that do not directly identify you, page and product activity, referral and campaign details, and browser or device information. Cottage CMS processes this information for our business and does not use it for advertising across other websites.

Optional tools, such as Google Analytics or Meta Pixel, run only when we enable them and your website privacy choices allow them. These providers may collect device and activity information under their own privacy policies.

Select Your Privacy Choices in the website footer to turn off Cottage CMS analytics or manage optional Google and Meta tools. You can also control cookies in your browser settings, but blocking essential cookies may prevent some website features from working.

We keep personal information for as long as reasonably needed to provide services, maintain order and business records, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and meet legal, accounting, or tax obligations. When it is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete it or remove identifying details.

We and our service providers use reasonable safeguards to protect personal information. However, no internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.

To stop marketing emails, use the unsubscribe link in any marketing email. To stop marketing texts, reply STOP. We may still send necessary messages about an active order.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information, or object to certain uses. To make a request, contact Ginger’s Bread and Sweet Shop at 626-780-1128 or use the contact details on our website or your order confirmation. We may need to verify your identity before completing your request.
