PART 1: PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT & HOW WE COLLECT YOUR INFORMATION

When you visit or browse www.centralcoastpartyhelpers.com and/or visit one of our "alias urls" which redirect you to www.centralcoastpartyhelpers.com (these will be collectively referred to as “website” from here on), or when you contact us directly (typically by email or via a social media platform), we collect the device and personal information you provide to us. This includes:

Device and Usage Information

We automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device when you visit the website.

As you browse our website, we also collect information about the individual web pages, offers, services and products that you view. We track which websites or search terms referred you to our website, and we record information about how you interact with the website. For example, how long you were on a page before leaving or which link you clicked to move on.

We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.”

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

  • “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier.
    For more information about cookies and why they are useful in most cases, or how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
  • “Log files” track actions occurring on the website. They also collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.
  • “Web beacons,” “tags,” and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about how you browse the website.

Client Information:

We collect any information you voluntarily submit or post to us on the website or by email. We also collect information you post in a public space, including on our social media pages or on our website. This information includes your name, billing address, event information, payment information (including credit card numbers or bank information if paying by check), email addresses, and phone numbers.

We refer to this information as “Client or Prospect Information.”

For instance, we collect client information when you submit an inquiry for services, when you call or email us with an inquiry or question, when you complete our worksheet listing the events and schedule of your wedding day, or when you purchase any of our services online. We also use client information for marketing and advertising, such as sending you marketing and advertising communications via post or email, and to customize the communications we show you.

We get information about you from third parties, including referral services such as ThumbTack, WeddingWire, Central Coast Bride, Yelp, and other vendors who make recommendations of service provider and help you submit an inquiry for services. Social media platforms may give us information about you.

When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Client Information.

What can you do if you want to protect your data better?

You can always tell your Internet browser that you don’t want to have any cookies downloaded to your computer. For more information about cookies and why they are useful in most cases, or how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org. Please note that deleting cookies or directing your browser to refuse them may limit your ability to use certain portions of our website.

PART 4: ABOUT THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by them.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms and Conditions. When you click on links on the website, they may direct you away from our site.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.
