Privacy Policy
WingedSumac.com is a small, grower-run seed shop. We collect only what we need to process your order, and we never sell, rent, or share your information with advertisers.
What We Collect
Order information
Your name, shipping address, billing details, and email. We collect only what is needed to fulfill your order and contact you about it.
Payment information
Payments are processed by Stripe. Your full card number is encrypted in transit, handled directly by Stripe, and never stored on our servers.
Site analytics
We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which pages are most useful. This includes page views, country, referring site, and device type. No cross-site tracking and no advertising profiles are built from this data.
How We Use It
- To process, pack, and ship your order.
- To email you a tracking number and shipping confirmation.
- To respond if you contact us with a question.
- To improve the site and understand which content is most helpful to growers.
What we do not do
- We do not sell customer data.
- We do not share customer data with third parties beyond what is needed to process and ship your order (payment processor, shipping carrier).
- We do not run retargeting ads or build advertising profiles.
Third-Party Services
We use a small number of trusted third-party services to operate the site. Each handles only the data needed to do its job.
Stripe (payments)
Stripe processes all payments. Card details are entered directly into Stripe's secure form and never pass through our servers. Stripe's privacy policy is available at stripe.com/privacy.
Cloudflare (hosting and DDoS protection)
The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare logs basic request information (IP address, timestamp, request path) for security and abuse prevention. Cloudflare's privacy policy is available at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.
Google Analytics
We may use Google Analytics 4 to measure site usage. IP addresses are anonymized. No personally identifiable information is sent to Google. You can opt out using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Cloudflare Web Analytics
We use Cloudflare's privacy-first analytics, which does not use cookies and does not track individuals across sites.
Lonesmith Dashboard
An anonymous, cookie-free visit beacon used by the site's builder (Lonesmith) to monitor uptime and basic traffic patterns across its sites. No personally identifiable information is collected.
USPS, UPS, and FedEx
Carriers receive the shipping name and address needed to deliver your order.
Cookies and Tracking
We use a minimal set of cookies and storage. They fall into three categories:
- Essential cookies set by Stripe during checkout so payment and fraud detection work correctly. These cannot be disabled and the site cannot complete an order without them.
- Analytics cookies set by Google Analytics, if enabled. These help us understand which pages are most useful. IP anonymization is on.
- Local storage used only to remember your accepted cookie preferences and any in-progress site state.
Visitors in the EU, UK, and Switzerland are shown a Google-certified consent management banner that lets them accept or reject non-essential cookies before they load.
