Information We Collect
Last Updated: March 4th, 2026
At Local Honey, we believe in being as transparent as a fresh jar of our clover honey. We only collect the information we need to get our raw, unfiltered products from our hives to your table. Here is exactly what we gather when you interact with our small family farm online.
1. Information You Provide Directly
We collect information that you voluntarily share with us when you interact with our shop or community features:
- Order & Shipping Information: When you purchase our honey, candles, or subscription boxes, we collect your name, email address, shipping address, and phone number to fulfill your order and coordinate local pickup in Anytown.
- "Join the Hive" Newsletter: If you sign up for our newsletter, we collect your first name and email address so we can send you seasonal batch drops and exclusive subscriber-only discounts.
- Contact & Inquiry Data: When you use our contact form to ask about hive visits or wholesale, we collect your name, email, and the details of your message so John and Jane can get back to you personally.
- Payment Details: While we process payments for items like our $14.99 Raw Clover Honey, your actual credit card data is handled by our secure third-party payment processors; we do not store your full financial details on our own hives.
2. Information Collected Automatically
Like most modern websites, we use "cookies" and similar tools to see how our neighbors navigate the site:
- Usage Data: We may collect information on how you browse our "More From the Hive" collection or which testimonials you read.
- Device Information: This includes basic technical details like your IP address and browser type, which helps us ensure our site looks great on your phone or computer.
3. How We Use This Information
We use your data strictly for "neighborly" purposes:
- To process and deliver your jars of honey, bee pollen, or propolis spray.
- To send you the "Join the Hive" updates you’ve requested.
- To improve our small-batch operation based on what our community loves most.
- To keep our digital hive safe and secure for all our visitors.
4. Sharing Your Information
We hate spam as much as we love bees. We will never sell your personal information to third parties. We only share your data with trusted service providers who help us run our shop, deliver our newsletter, or ship our Hive-to-Home boxes.
