This Privacy Policy explains how Emporio Dolcezza LLC ("Emporio Dolcezza," "we," "us" or "our") collects, uses and shares information when you visit emporiodolcezza.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information we collect
The Site is an informational catalog. We do not offer online ordering, customer accounts, newsletter sign-ups or contact forms, and we do not ask you to enter personal information on the Site.
Information you choose to send us
If you email us or message us on social media, we receive the information you include, such as your name, email address and the content of your message.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the Site, some information is collected automatically:
- Analytics data. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site. It collects information such as the pages you view, how you arrived at the Site (for example, a search engine or a link), the time and duration of your visit, your approximate location (city or region), and your device, browser and operating system. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies and assigns your browser a random identifier.
- Server logs. Our hosting provider, Vercel, automatically records technical information such as your IP address, browser type and the date and time of each request. These logs are used to deliver the Site, keep it secure and troubleshoot problems.
How we use information
- To operate, maintain and improve the Site.
- To understand which products and pages interest our visitors.
- To respond to your messages and questions.
- To protect the Site against fraud, abuse and security incidents.
- To comply with applicable laws and legal requests.
Cookies and similar technologies
Google Analytics sets cookies (such as _ga and _ga_*) that distinguish unique visitors and sessions. We use them for analytics only, not to show you advertising. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. To learn how Google uses this data, see How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Some browsers send "Do Not Track" signals. Because there is no common industry standard for these signals, the Site does not currently respond to them.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for targeted advertising. We share it only:
- With service providers that help us run the Site, namely Google (analytics and email) and Vercel (hosting), which process information on our behalf.
- For legal reasons, when required by law, subpoena or other legal process, or to protect the rights, property or safety of Emporio Dolcezza, our visitors or others.
- In a business transfer, such as a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, in which case the information would remain subject to this policy.
Data retention
Google Analytics data is kept according to the retention settings of our account, for no longer than 14 months. Server logs are kept by Vercel for a limited period for operational and security purposes. Messages you send us are kept for as long as needed to respond and for our ordinary business records.
Your privacy rights
Depending on the state where you live — including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia and other states with consumer privacy laws — you may have the right to request access to, correction of or deletion of your personal information, to obtain a copy of it, and to opt out of its sale or its use for targeted advertising (we do neither). To make a request, email us at info@emporiodolcezza.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding, and we will respond within the time required by applicable law. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. If we deny your request, you may appeal by replying to our response.
Children's privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Security
The Site is served over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection, and we rely on reputable providers to host and protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Links to other websites
The Site links to third-party websites and services, such as Instagram, Google Maps and the stores that sell our caramels. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and we are not responsible for them.
Where information is processed
The Site is operated from the State of Florida, United States, and is intended for visitors in the United States. Information is processed and stored in the United States.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
