At Daphne's Bridal Boutique, we value the trust you place in us. Whether you're exploring our collections, scheduling an appointment, or preparing for a special occasion, we are committed to treating your personal information with care and respect.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, when we share it with service providers, and the choices available to you.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect information you voluntarily provide when you:
• Contact us through our website, email, telephone, or social media.
• Request or schedule an appointment.
• Purchase or inquire about merchandise or services.
• Subscribe to promotional emails.
• Participate in boutique events, promotions, or giveaways.
• Communicate with our team about an appointment, order, or other customer-service matter.
Depending on your interaction with us, this information may include your name, email address, telephone number, wedding or event date, appointment preferences, merchandise interests, purchase details, invoices, transaction amounts, payment history, and information you choose to share with our team.
Our website and its service providers may also collect technical information, such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referral sources, interactions, and approximate geographic location derived from technical data.
2. How We Use Information
We use information to:
• Respond to questions and inquiries.
• Schedule, confirm, and manage appointments.
• Assist with merchandise selections, purchases, and orders.
• Process payments and maintain customer accounts and business records.
• Provide customer service and necessary follow-up communications.
• Send promotional communications when you have given permission or when otherwise permitted by applicable law.
• Understand website activity and improve our services.
• Protect our business, prevent fraud, and comply with applicable legal obligations.
Submitting a general inquiry does not automatically enroll you in promotional emails or text messages.
3. Appointments, Payments, and Customer Communications
Daphne's Bridal Boutique uses Bridal Web Solutions to manage appointments and related customer communications.
During the booking process, customers are asked to select Yes or No separately for promotional email and SMS/text communications. These selections are used to manage promotional communications within Bridal Web Solutions.
Appointment confirmations, scheduling updates, order-related messages, and other necessary customer-service communications are separate from optional promotional messages.
Daphne's Bridal Boutique uses Stripe and Square as payment processing providers for customer purchases and initial payments. For customers with existing invoices or outstanding balances, our Make a Payment option is available through Bridal Web Solutions, which integrates with Stripe to process payments and update customer account records.
Our payment providers may collect and process payment card details, billing information, transaction amounts, and other information necessary to complete payments, prevent fraud, and comply with applicable requirements.
Daphne's Bridal Boutique maintains relevant purchase, payment, invoice, and customer account information for order management, customer service, accounting, and business recordkeeping.
Payment information is handled in accordance with the applicable practices of our payment service providers.

4. Marketing Communications and Consent
We send promotional communications in accordance with applicable law and the permissions customers provide.
Customers may subscribe to seasonal promotional emails through the Stay in Touch form on our website. Information submitted through this form is emailed to our boutique and may be manually added to our email marketing list when the individual has provided appropriate permission.
We may use Mailchimp to send promotional emails to consenting subscribers.
Our appointment scheduling process offers separate choices concerning promotional email and text-message communications, as described in Section 3.
Customers may unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe instructions included in those messages or by contacting us.
Customers who receive promotional text messages may withdraw permission by following the opt-out instructions provided in those messages or by contacting the boutique.
Withdrawing marketing consent does not prevent us from sending necessary communications concerning an existing appointment, order, or customer-service request, where permitted by law.
We honor applicable marketing opt-out requests and maintain communication preferences as required by law.
5. Cookies, Consent Management, and Analytics
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality and understand visitor activity.

8. Customer Photographs and Videos
We may photograph or record appointments, events, and other boutique activities.
Where required, we obtain appropriate permission before using identifiable customer images or recordings for promotional purposes.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for customer service, business operations, accounting, legal obligations, dispute resolution, and other legitimate purposes.
