Privacy policy

At Bridgewater Chocolate we respect your right to privacy. Security measures are in place to ensure that your information is used only in a responsible and safe manner. The following information describes the collection, handling, and distribution of information gathered through this website.  As we continue to develop our website and take advantage of technologies to improve our service, some of the following policies may change.

Information Release:
We do not currently sell or rent the use of your information, although we reserve the right to do so in the future. If you do not wish us to do so, you may request this at any time. Your IP address may be used to help diagnose problems with our site or our server, but always in a confidential manner. 

We will release information only when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, or to protect the rights and property of Bridgewater Chocolate and its associated companies.

The personally identifiable information that you provide to us and information about your order may be combined with other personally identifiable information (such as demographic information and past purchase history) available from our records and other sources. We also use Pixel Tags to collect additional information regarding your browsing experience. This information will be used to make our future marketing efforts more efficient and to provide you with a more relevant and timely brand and shopping experience. This information may also be shared with our third party service providers that assist us with our marketing efforts and with other marketers whose products or services we feel may be of interest to you. If you prefer that we do not share your name and address with other marketers, please email us at customercare@bridgewaterchocolate.com.

Information Gathering:
Our site uses an order form to make our products available to the public. We collect only information pertinent to your transaction being made, such as billing information, and shipping addresses. 

We do not collect any information that is personally identifiable unless you choose to provide this information. A Cookie may be placed on your hard drive to keep track of your shopping cart. Without accepting a Cookie, you can look at our site, but will be unable to use the shopping cart or purchase on-line.

Compiled information may be used to provide statistical information, i.e. sales patterns, etc. While these statistics may be shared, they will contain no personally identifying information. Names and address will be sent to services to get additional information, like change of address information from the National Change of Address service. 

Security Measures: This site has physical and electronic security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of information. Credit card numbers are not maintained on the server once the order has been processed.

Future Contact: Should you choose to provide us with your e-mail address, or shipping address, this information may be used by Bridgewater Chocolate to provide you with future catalogs, special offers, etc. If you do not wish to receive mailings, you may request this at any time.
