AKA Our Privacy Policy

👋 Welcome

Welcome to marciasmicrobakery.com! Just like we're transparent about what goes into our treats, we want to be crystal clear about how we handle your information. No artificial ingredients here — just the honest truth served fresh!

🧁 What Personal Goodies We Collect

Just like we need ingredients to bake, we need some information from you! Here's what we might collect:

• Basic Info: Name, email address, and contact details (when you order or contact us)
• Order Details: What you ordered, delivery info, and payment info (we never keep your credit card numbers)
• Website Activity: How you browse our site (through cookies — the digital kind, not the chocolate chip kind!)
• Comments & Reviews: Your thoughts about our baked goods (we love feedback!)

We collect this info for legitimate business purposes, like delivering your goodies, improving our recipes, and keeping you updated on fresh-out-of-the-oven news!

When You Leave Comments: When you drop a comment on our site, we collect what you share in the comment form, plus your IP address and browser user agent to help spot any suspicious activity.

🍪 Our Cookie Jar

Our website uses cookies (the digital kind) to enhance your browsing experience. These small text files remember your preferences and help us understand how you use our site.

• Session Cookies: These disappear when you close your browser
• Preference Cookies: These remember your favorite settings
• Analytics Cookies: These help us see which pages are most popular

You can set your browser to decline cookies, but some features of our site might not work as well as our sourdough on a Sunday morning.

🤝 Who We Share Your Data With

We guard your personal info like our secret recipes! We only share your data with:

• Delivery partners (to get treats to your doorstep)
• Payment processors (to handle transactions)
• Email service providers (to send you order confirmations)

⏳ How Long We Keep Your Data

We keep your data fresh, not stale:

• Order information: 7 years (for tax purposes)
• Comments: Indefinitely (unless you ask us to remove them)
• Contact form submissions: 1 year
• Account information: As long as you have an account with us

✅ Your Rights Over Your Data

You have more rights than there are sprinkles on our donuts:

• Request access to your personal data
• Request corrections to your data
• Request deletion of your data
• Export your data
• Opt out of marketing communications

Just email us at info@marciasmicrobakery.com to exercise any of these rights. We'll respond faster than our cookies cool on a rack!

🔒 How We Protect Your Data

We protect your information with the same care we protect our sourdough starter:

• Secure, encrypted connections (HTTPS)
• Limited access to personal information (only team members who knead to know)
• Regular security updates (fresher than our bread)
• Password-protected systems (tougher than our crusty baguettes)

If there's ever a security incident affecting your data, we'll:

• Notify you promptly
• Investigate thoroughly
• Take immediate steps to prevent further breaches
• Provide clear instructions on what to do next

🚫 The Fun Stuff We DON'T Do

• We DON'T use automatic decision-making or profiling
• We DON'T receive your data from random third parties
• We DON'T sell your data for any dough (money)
• We DON'T use your information for anything other than what we've mentioned here
