Pacific Pickle Works ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have about it.
What we collect
When you visit pacificpickleworks.com, place an order, or sign up for our newsletter, we may collect:
- Contact details — name, email, shipping address, phone number.
- Order data — items purchased, payment method, billing address. Payment card numbers are processed by our payment provider; we never store them on our servers.
- Account credentials if you create a Subscribe & Save account.
- Technical data — IP address, browser type, device, pages visited, referring site. Cookies are explained below.
How we use it
- To fulfill orders, ship products, and provide customer support.
- To send transactional emails (order confirmation, shipping updates).
- To send marketing emails — only if you've opted in. Every email has an unsubscribe link.
- To improve the site through aggregated analytics.
- To prevent fraud and comply with legal obligations.
Cookies and tracking
We use two types of cookies:
- Essential cookies — required for the cart, checkout, and login. Always on.
- Analytics cookies — help us understand how the site is used. These only load if you accept them via the consent banner.
You can change your cookie preferences anytime by clearing your browser storage and revisiting the site.
Sharing your data
We never sell your data. We share it only with:
- Payment processors (Shopify, Stripe) to charge your card.
- Shipping carriers (USPS, UPS) to deliver orders.
- Email service providers (Klaviyo, Mailchimp) to send the emails you've subscribed to.
- Analytics providers (Google Analytics, Plausible) — aggregated, anonymized.
- Authorities if required by law.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Correct or delete it.
- Object to processing, or restrict it.
- Withdraw consent for marketing at any time.
- Port your data to another service.
- Lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.
California residents: You have additional rights under the CCPA, including the right to know what data we collect and the right to opt out of any "sale" of personal data (we don't sell data).
To exercise any of these rights, email hello@pacificpickleworks.com.
Data retention
We keep order records for 7 years to comply with tax and accounting requirements. Newsletter subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe. Analytics data is retained for 14 months.
Security
We use HTTPS site-wide, payment-card tokenization, and standard industry practices to protect your data. No system is 100% secure, but we work to minimize risk.
Children
The site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe we have, please contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. Material changes will be announced on this page, and we will update the "Last updated" date at the top.
