Privacy policy
At LibertyCozycloth , we recognize the importance of protecting your personal information and are committed to upholding the highest standards of confidentiality, integrity, and security. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and share your data when you access or use our website (www.LibertyCozycloth.com) or services. By visiting our website or using our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described herein, including our collection, use, processing, disclosure, and transfer of your personal data as outlined below.
1. Our Commitment to Security & Privacy
- Your Trust, Our Priority: We treat your trust as our most valuable asset. We aim to give you as much control as possible over your personal information while ensuring we can deliver our services effectively. Note that certain features of our website may require you to provide basic personal information—without this, you may not be able to access or use those specific features.
- Data Protection Standards: We maintain robust practices to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity, and security of your personal information, and we regularly review and enhance these measures to address evolving risks.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information in two primary ways: information you voluntarily provide, and information automatically gathered when you interact with our website.
2.1 Information You Voluntarily Provide
This includes any data you actively share with us, either through our website (e.g., during account registration, checkout, or form submission) or via other channels (e.g., email, customer support). This information is stored on our secure servers and may include:
- Personal identifiers: Full name, email address, website user account login ID and password, mobile/landline phone numbers, gender, date of birth (DOB), physical address, and gift messages (if applicable).
- Proof of purchase or order-related details: Order numbers, invoice information, or other transaction records.
Important Exclusions: We do not store credit card, debit card, or net-banking details on our servers. These payment-related data are processed through secure, third-party payment gateways (in compliance with industry standards) and are not retained by LibertyCozycloth.
Your Choice to Disclose: You may opt not to provide certain non-essential information, but this may limit your ability to use key features (e.g., placing orders, creating an account, or accessing personalized services).
2.2 Automatically Collected Information
We receive and store non-identifiable or semi-identifiable data whenever you interact with our website, primarily for diagnostic, analytical, and service improvement purposes. This includes:
- Server Logs: We log your activity (e.g., pages visited, time spent on the site, or error messages) to optimize performance and troubleshoot issues. The only personal information included in these logs is your device’s IP address (used to identify your general location and ensure service compatibility).
- Cookies: Small text files placed on your device to enhance your experience (see Section 8: Cookie Policy for full details).
3. How We Use Your Information
We use your personal information only for legitimate, business-related purposes, including:
- Fulfilling Your Requests: Processing orders, delivering products, responding to customer support inquiries, or honoring return/refund requests.
- Personalizing Your Experience: Customizing product recommendations, transaction history, or communication to match your preferences.
- Communicating with You: Sending order updates, service notifications, or important policy changes (we do not send unsolicited marketing communications without your consent).
- Business Operations: Improving our website, services, or product offerings; conducting internal analytics; or ensuring compliance with legal obligations.
- Sharing (as Permitted): Disclosing data to trusted third parties (e.g., service providers) to fulfill your orders or deliver services (see Section 5 for details).
Updating Your Information: You may review, add, or update your personal information by contacting us at support@LibertyCozycloth.com. We retain copies of prior versions of your data for record-keeping and compliance purposes.
4. Retention of Your Information
We retain your personal data only for as long as:
- It is necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy (e.g., until your order is completed, or your account is active).
- A longer retention period is required or permitted by law (e.g., tax records, transaction histories, or legal disputes).
Once retention is no longer necessary, we securely delete or anonymize your data to prevent unauthorized access.
5. Sharing Your Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. We may share your data only in the following limited circumstances:

- Affiliates or Partners: Companies within our network that help process orders, manage inventory, or provide technical support.
- Logistics Providers: Courier companies or shipping partners tasked with delivering your orders to your specified address.
- Payment Gateways: Secure, third-party platforms that process payment transactions (as noted in Section 2.1, we do not store payment details ourselves).

- Enter into contractual agreements requiring them to maintain the same level of data protection as LibertyCozycloth..
- Restrict their use of your information to only the purposes for which it was shared.

5.2 Business Transfers
In the event of a business transaction (e.g., merger, acquisition, or sale of assets), customer information may be transferred as part of the business assets. We will ensure the acquiring party adheres to the terms of this Privacy Policy and maintains the security of your data. By using our services, you consent to such transfers.
5.3 Legal Compliance & Safety
We may disclose your information if required by law (e.g., in response to a valid court order, subpoena, or request from a government agency) or to protect:
- The rights, property, or safety of LibertyCozycloth, our users, or third parties.
- Against fraud, unauthorized access, or other illegal activities (e.g., sharing data with anti-fraud organizations).

6. Security of Your Information
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction:
- Encryption: We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software to encrypt data transmitted during payment processing or sensitive form submissions.
- Access Controls: Only authorized employees or contractors (with a “need-to-know” basis) can access your personal information. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may face disciplinary action (including termination or criminal prosecution) for non-compliance.
- Secure Storage: Your data is stored on secured servers with physical and technical safeguards (e.g., password protection, firewalls, and regular security audits).
- No Sale of Data: We never sell or rent your personal information to third parties for any reason, except as required by law or with your explicit consent.
Your Role in Security: To further protect your data, we recommend:
- Keeping your account password confidential and unique.
- Signing off from your account when using shared devices.
- Updating your contact information promptly to ensure you receive security-related notifications.
