We value your privacy at Stem & Story Studio
Data We Gather
When you reach out for corporate floral arrangements or gifts, we collect information you share willingly. This includes your name, business name, email, phone, delivery addresses, and any specific floral requirements. We also gather payment details when you place orders, though processed securely by our payment partners.
For corporate clients, we may obtain extra business details like company registration data, preferred delivery timelines, and budget needs to tailor our services to your business.
Our site automatically gathers technical data when you visit, such as IP address, browser type, device details, and navigation paths. We use this to enhance site performance and understand how clients discover our services.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information mainly to fulfill orders and deliver excellent customer service, including processing orders, coordinating deliveries, creating custom arrangements, and communicating about your service needs.
We also use information to improve our services and website experience, helping us identify which corporate floral options are most valuable to clients and how we can better support the business community in United Kingdom.
