Welcome to Cheap Garden Care (“we,” “us,” or “our”). At gardencaregears.com, we’re committed to protecting your privacy while helping you cultivate your gardening passion. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or make purchases from our online store.

1. Information We Collect

As fellow gardening enthusiasts, we only collect information that helps us serve you better:

  • Personal Information: When you make purchases of garden tools, planters, or greenhouse accessories, we collect your name, email address, shipping address, payment information, and contact details.
  • Transaction Data: Details about purchases of flower supports, irrigation systems, or other garden products.
  • Technical Data: IP address, browser type, device information, and how you navigate our site (like whether you browse from animal controls to garden tools).
  • Communication Data: Information from emails or messages you send to [email protected].

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data to help your garden grow (metaphorically speaking):

  • Process orders for decorative stakes, grow bags, or other garden essentials
  • Provide customer support for your greenhouse kits or plant protectors
  • Improve our product offerings (from chimes to cold frames) and website experience
  • Send order confirmations and shipping updates
  • Prevent fraud and enhance security for all your gardening purchases
  • Comply with legal requirements related to international shipping

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We treat your information like delicate seedlings—with care and protection:

  • Service Providers: We share necessary information with payment processors (like PayPal), shipping carriers, and IT service providers to fulfill your orders of hanging planters or patio planters.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law regarding purchases of pest controls or other regulated items.
  • Business Transfers: In case of merger or acquisition, customer data may be transferred, but always protected.

We never sell your personal information to third-party marketers.

4. Data Storage and Security

Your garden tools deserve a secure shed, and your data deserves the same:

  • All transactions are protected by 256-bit SSL encryption—the same security used by banks.
  • Payment information is processed securely through our PCI-compliant payment processors.
  • We retain personal data only as long as necessary to provide your gardening supplies or as required by law.
  • While we implement robust security measures, no internet transmission is 100% secure.

5. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access, correct, or delete your personal information
  • Object to or restrict certain data processing
  • Receive a copy of your data in a portable format
  • Withdraw consent for marketing communications

To exercise these rights regarding your garden care purchases, contact us at [email protected].

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Like choosing the right hose nozzle for your needs, you have options:

  • Essential Cookies: Necessary for processing orders of irrigation systems or greenhouse accessories.
  • Performance Cookies: Help us improve how you browse from fences to flower supports.
  • Functional Cookies: Remember preferences like your local currency.
  • Marketing Cookies: Show relevant ads for garden tools you might enjoy.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

7. International Data Transfers

Since we serve gardeners globally (excluding parts of Asia and some remote areas), your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States and other locations, always with appropriate safeguards.

8. Children’s Privacy

Our website and products like decorative garden stakes are not directed at children under 16. We don’t knowingly collect their data.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as our garden grows. Significant changes will be communicated to customers who’ve purchased items like plant protectors or indoor pots.
