Privacy Policy
We value your privacy at HarborPulseGrove
Information We Collect
When you reach out to us for corporate flower arrangements or gift services, we collect details you willingly share. This includes your name, business name, email address, phone number, delivery addresses, and any specific floral requirements. Payment details are collected when you place orders, though processing is securely handled by our payment partners.
For corporate clients, we may gather extra business information such as company registration details, preferred delivery timings, and budget considerations to help us tailor our service to your needs.
Our site automatically collects certain technical data when you visit. This includes your IP address, browser type, device information, and navigation patterns. We use this data to enhance site performance and to understand how clients discover 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 your satisfaction.
- Processing and completing your flower orders and gift arrangements
- Informing you about order status and delivery timelines
- Providing customer support and answering your inquiries
- Enhancing our services based on your feedback and preferences
- Sending relevant service updates (with your consent)
- Maintaining records for business and legal compliance
We also use aggregated, non-personal data to understand market trends and improve our operations. For example, we might analyze which arrangements are most popular in different seasons to better prepare inventory.
With your explicit consent, we may send information about seasonal offerings, special promotions, or new services that could interest your business. 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, lease, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. Your data stays within our business ecosystem and is shared only when necessary to provide our services or to comply with legal requirements.
We collaborate with trusted providers who assist in delivering our services, including 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.
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 that apply to our operations in Covent Garden 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 storage, and regular security updates to defend against threats.
Physical security measures 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 follow industry standards. We do not store full credit card numbers on our systems; this data is handled by certified payment processors who specialize in secure transactions.
While we implement strong security measures, no system is completely foolproof. We continuously monitor and update our security practices to address evolving threats and uphold the highest protection standards possible.
Your Rights and Choices
You have several rights regarding your personal information. You can request to view the information we hold, ask us to correct inaccuracies, or request deletion of your data 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 retain your information only for as long as needed for business and legal purposes. Order records are kept for accounting and warranty reasons, while marketing preferences remain until you request removal.
When we no longer need your information, we securely delete or anonymize it. Some data may be kept longer if required by United Kingdom business laws or for legitimate business interests such as fraud prevention.

Business Transfers and Changes
If HarborPulseGrove undergoes major business changes such as mergers, acquisitions, or asset sales, your personal information may be transferred as part of the transaction. We would inform you of any such changes and ensure your data remains protected under privacy standards consistent with this policy.
In the unlikely event that we discontinue operations, we would ensure your personal information is either securely transferred to a successor entity (with appropriate privacy protections) or securely deleted in line with data protection best practices.
