Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us at ModestParcelGuide
Information We Collect
When you reach out to us for corporate floral arrangements or gift services, we gather details you choose to share. This includes your name, organization name, email address, phone number, delivery addresses, and any specific floral requirements. We also collect payment details when placing orders, though processing is handled securely by our payment partners.
For our corporate clients, we may obtain additional business details such as company registration data, preferred delivery timelines, and budget considerations. This helps us tailor our services to your organizational needs.
Our site automatically gathers certain technical information when you visit. This includes your IP address, browser type, device information, and navigation patterns. We use this data to enhance site performance and understand how clients access our services.
How We Use Your Information
We primarily use your personal information to fulfill orders and deliver excellent customer service. This includes processing orders, coordinating deliveries, sending confirmations, and following up to ensure satisfaction with our service.
- Processing and fulfilling your flower orders and gift arrangements
- Informing you about order status and delivery schedules
- Providing customer support and answering inquiries
- Enhancing our services based on your feedback and preferences
- Sending relevant updates about our offerings (with your consent)
- Maintaining records for business and legal compliance purposes
We also utilize aggregated, non-identifying data to understand market trends and improve operations. For example, we might analyze which types of arrangements are most popular in different seasons to better prepare inventory.
With your explicit consent, we may share information about seasonal offerings, special promotions, or new services that could interest your organization. You can opt out of these communications at any time by using the unsubscribe link in our emails or contacting us directly.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or exchange your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes. Your data remains within our business ecosystem and is shared only when necessary to provide our services or to comply with legal requirements.
We collaborate with trusted service providers who assist us in delivering our services. This includes payment processors, delivery partners, and flower suppliers. These partners are contractually obligated to protect your information and use it solely for the services they perform for us.
We may disclose your information if required by United Kingdom law, court orders, or government regulations. This includes compliance with GST regulations, business licensing requirements, and other legal obligations applicable to our operations in London and across United Kingdom.
Data Security and Protection
We take data security seriously and implement multiple layers of protection. Our systems use encryption for sensitive data transmission, secure servers for data storage, and regular security updates to protect against threats.
We employ physical security measures to protect our office systems, and access to personal information is limited to employees who need it for their work. Our team receives ongoing training on privacy practices and data handling procedures.
Payment information is processed through secure, encrypted systems that meet industry standards. We do not store full credit card numbers on our systems—this data is handled by certified payment processors specializing in secure financial transactions.
While we maintain strong security measures, no system is entirely risk-free. We continuously monitor and update our security practices to address evolving threats and uphold the highest protection standards.
Your Rights and Choices
You have several rights regarding your personal information. You may request to view what we hold, ask us to correct inaccurate data, or request deletion of your information when legally permissible.
- Access your personal information and understand how we use it
- Request corrections to inaccurate or outdated information
- Ask us to delete your personal information (subject to business and legal requirements)
- Opt out of marketing communications while continuing to receive service-related messages
- Request information about how your data has been shared
- File complaints about our privacy practices
We keep your information only as long as needed for business purposes and legal requirements. Order records are retained for accounting and warranty purposes, while marketing preferences are kept until you ask us to remove them.
When we no longer need your information, we securely delete or anonymize it. Some information may be retained longer if required by United Kingdom business laws or for legitimate business interests like preventing fraud.

Business Transfers and Changes
