Buckmoson Privacy Policy: Protecting Your Personal Information

At Buckmoson, we respect your privacy and are committed to safeguarding the personal information you share with us—whether you’re browsing our clothing collection (from jeans and sweaters to dresses and outerwear), placing an order, creating an account, or reaching out to our customer service team. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use, store, and protect it, and your rights regarding your data. By using our website (buckmoson.com) or engaging with our services, you agree to the practices outlined in this policy.

1. What Information We Collect

We only collect personal information necessary to provide you with our clothing products and services, enhance your shopping experience, or comply with legal obligations. The types of information we may collect include:

a. Personal Identification Information

  • Contact Details: Full name, email address (e.g., the one you use to reach [email protected]), phone number (if provided during checkout or customer support inquiries), and shipping/billing address (including city, zip code, and country—critical for delivering clothing orders accurately).
  • Account Information: If you create a user account, we store your username, encrypted password, and account preferences (e.g., saved shipping addresses, favorite clothing categories like “outerwear” or “dresses,” and communication preferences for newsletters).

b. Order & Transaction Information

  • Details about your clothing purchases: order number, selected items (e.g., size of jeans, color of a sweater, style of a dress), quantity, payment method (we do not store full credit card details—see Section 3 for payment security), transaction amount, and delivery tracking number (to update you on order status).

c. Website Usage & Technical Information

  • Non-Personal Data: Browser type (e.g., Chrome, Safari), device model (e.g., iPhone, laptop), operating system, IP address, pages visited (e.g., “women’s jeans” category page, “wool sweater” product page), time spent on each page, referral sources (e.g., how you found our site—search engine, social media, or a friend’s link), and click-through behavior (e.g., filters used for “size” or “color” when browsing dresses).
  • Tracking Data: Collected via cookies and similar tools (see Section 2d) to remember your preferences (e.g., language settings, recently viewed clothing items) and analyze website performance (e.g., which product pages have high engagement).

d. Voluntarily Provided Information

  • Feedback, product reviews (e.g., “This dress fits true to size!” or “The sweater is soft but pill-prone”), or questions sent to our customer service team (via email or website contact forms).
  • Information shared when signing up for our newsletter (e.g., email address to receive updates on new clothing collections or sales) or participating in promotions (e.g., contest entries for a free jacket).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information for specific, legitimate purposes aligned with our business and your needs as a clothing shopper. These purposes include:

a. Fulfilling Orders & Providing Services

  • Processing and shipping your clothing: Using your shipping address to deliver items like jeans or dresses, sharing necessary details (e.g., order number, delivery address) with shipping carriers (e.g., USPS, UPS), and sending order updates (confirmation emails, shipping notifications, delivery confirmations).
  • Resolving issues: Handling returns, exchanges, or complaints (using your contact details to address concerns about a sweater’s fit or a jacket’s damage).

b. Enhancing Your Shopping Experience

  • Personalizing your website experience: Showing clothing recommendations based on your browsing history (e.g., suggesting a skirt to pair with a top you viewed) or past purchases (e.g., new outerwear styles if you bought a coat last season).
  • Improving our products and services: Analyzing website usage data to identify areas for improvement (e.g., simplifying the checkout process for mobile shoppers) or developing new clothing collections (e.g., adding more plus-size jeans based on customer feedback).
  • Assisting with inquiries: Answering questions about clothing sizing, fabric care (e.g., “Can this linen dress be machine-washed?”), or order status via email (using the contact details you provide).

c. Marketing & Communications (With Your Consent)

  • Sending newsletters: Sharing updates on new clothing arrivals (e.g., spring dresses, fall sweaters), sales (e.g., “20% off all jeans”), or exclusive offers (you can unsubscribe at any time via the “unsubscribe” link in these emails).
  • Promotional messages: Sending information about limited-time deals (e.g., “Flash sale on outerwear”) or loyalty rewards—only if you’ve explicitly agreed to receive them (e.g., by checking a box when creating an account or signing up for our newsletter).

d. Legal & Security Purposes

  • Complying with laws and regulations: Retaining order records for tax and legal compliance, or responding to lawful requests from government authorities.
  • Protecting our business and users: Detecting and preventing fraud (e.g., monitoring unusual transaction activity for high-value outerwear orders), unauthorized access to user accounts, or misuse of our website (e.g., fake reviews for clothing items).

3. How We Protect Your Information

We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement reasonable technical, administrative, and physical measures to prevent unauthorized access, use, or disclosure:

  • Encryption: Sensitive data (e.g., passwords, payment information) is encrypted using industry-standard protocols (e.g., SSL/TLS for website transactions) to protect it during transmission—so your credit card details or address are secure when you order clothing.
  • Payment Security: We do not store full credit card numbers or payment details. All payments are processed through trusted third-party payment processors (e.g., PayPal, Stripe) that comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)—a set of rules designed to keep payment information safe.
  • Access Controls: Only authorized Buckmoson team members (e.g., customer service representatives, order fulfillment staff) have access to your personal information, and they are required to keep it confidential. We train our team on privacy best practices to ensure your data is handled responsibly.
  • Data Storage: Your information is stored on secure servers with restricted access (protected by firewalls and anti-malware software). We retain data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy (e.g., order records are kept for tax compliance) or as required by law.
  • Regular Audits: We periodically review our security practices to ensure they remain effective and up-to-date with industry standards—adjusting measures as needed to address new risks (e.g., emerging cyber threats).

4. Third Parties We May Share Your Information With

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. However, we may share your information with trusted third parties who assist us in providing our clothing products and services. These third parties are required to protect your data and only use it for the purposes we specify:

  • Shipping Carriers: E.g., USPS, UPS, or DHL—we share your shipping address and order details to deliver clothing items (e.g., a dress or a jacket) to your doorstep.
  • Payment Processors: As noted in Section 3, third-party processors handle payment transactions for your clothing purchases (they do not use your data for other purposes).
  • Customer Service Tools: Software providers that help us manage and respond to your inquiries (e.g., email management platforms for [email protected] to track your questions about a sweater’s fit).
  • Analytics Providers: E.g., Google Analytics—we share non-personal website usage data to analyze user behavior (e.g., which clothing categories are most popular) and improve our site (you can opt out of Google Analytics via your browser settings).

We may also share your information if required by law (e.g., in response to a court order) or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of others (e.g., sharing fraud-related data with law enforcement).

5. Your Rights Regarding Your Information

You have certain rights over your personal information, and we make it easy for you to exercise these rights:

  • Access Your Data: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you (e.g., your order history, saved shipping addresses, or past reviews of clothing items).
  • Correct Inaccuracies: Update or correct any incorrect or outdated information (e.g., changing your billing address in your account settings after moving).
  • Delete Your Data: Request that we delete your personal information (where legally permitted—we may need to retain some data for legal or operational purposes, e.g., tax records for past clothing orders).
  • Opt Out of Marketing: Unsubscribe from promotional emails by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in any newsletter, or contact us at [email protected] to opt out of other marketing communications (e.g., text messages about sales).
  • Withdraw Consent: If you previously agreed to share your information for a specific purpose (e.g., marketing), you can withdraw your consent at any time (this will not affect the lawfulness of our use of your data before you withdrew consent).

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected] with your request. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe (typically 30 days) and verify your identity before fulfilling your request to protect your data (e.g., asking for your order number or the email address linked to your account).

6. Cookies & Tracking Tools

  • Remember your account login details (if you choose “keep me logged in” when signing in to view your clothing wishlist).
  • Save your shopping cart items (e.g., a pair of jeans you want to purchase later).
  • Analyze how users interact with our website (e.g., which filters are most used for “women’s dresses”).

You can control cookies through your browser settings:

  • Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, but this may limit some features of our website (e.g., you may need to re-enter your login details each time you visit, or your shopping cart for clothing items may not be saved).

7. Children’s Privacy

Our website and clothing products are not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected data from a child under 13, we will delete it immediately.
