Privacy Policy
Thank you for using the EventButiq Services! We are committed to providing you the best online event rental platform possible. This Privacy Policy explains what information we (EventButiq, Inc.) collect, how that information is used, under what circumstances we share information, and the choices you can make about that information. This Privacy Policy applies whether you access the EventButiq Services (as defined in the Terms of Service) through a browser, a mobile application, or any other method. This Privacy Policy also describes how we collect, use and disclose your personally identifiable information (“PII”). PII is information about you that may be used to identify you (such as your name, phone number, or address). Additional Disclosures: We may provide different or additional disclosures relating to the processing of personal information about residents of certain countries, regions or states. Listed below are additional disclosures that may be applicable to you. If you are a California resident, please see the additional privacy disclosures below in Disclosure For California Residents. At various points in the EventButiq experience, you may provide us with information about yourself. For example, when you create an account through the Services, you provide us with personal information like your name, email address, and zip or postal code. And if you place an order through the Services, we collect information including your address, phone number, birth date , credit card information, vehicle license plate number(s) (for willcall pickup orders) and the details of your order. Your account information may be updated or corrected by accessing your account settings. We may also collect information you provide directly to us regarding an experience with a retail partner that may require us to contact that retailer, or other retailer partners, for public health or safety reasons, or to facilitate a refund. We do not share your identity with the retailers that we may contact in such a capacity, but may share date, time and location of a transaction, which may allow a retailer to independently identify you. If you log into the Services through a third-party service, both we and that third-party may receive some information about you and your use of the services. For example, if you choose to log into the Services with your Facebook account, we may receive information from Facebook, such as your name, e-mail address, public profile information, and information about your contacts. We may also offer social sharing tools (such as the Facebook “Like” button) that let you share actions on the Services with other websites and vice versa. In those cases, the providers of those tools may receive information about you when you use those tools. You should check the privacy policies of these third-party services and your settings there for more information. EventButiq cannot and does not guarantee the privacy policies and practices of any third party. EventButiq does not control, operate, or endorse any information, products, or services of any third-party websites that may be reached through links from the Site. The use of any personal information provided by you to such a third party will be governed by that party's privacy policy. You should review the privacy policy at each linked website to determine how that website treats your personal information. If you wish to invite your friends and contacts to use the Services, we will give you the option of either entering in their contact information manually or, for United States residents, importing it from your address books on other third-party services. In both cases, we will store this information for the sole purposes of allowing you to send your friends referral offers, for determining whether your friends use the Services after a referral is sent, and, for United States residents, to remind your friends of the referral sent on your behalf. Our partners may let us collect information about use of their sites/apps or share such information with us. For example, if you use an EventButiq button or widget on another site or app, we may receive information about your use of that button or widget and the third-party site/app. EventButiq is active in local communities as part of our mission to create a world where everyone has easy access to event rental Butiqs for creating a great party experience. You may provide us your information in connection with our community affairs efforts. When you use the Services, we may collect precise location data. For instance, if you allow the Services to access location services through the permission system used by your device's mobile operating system or browser, we may collect the precise location of your device. We use your location information to facilitate matching you with local event Butiqs for renting items, for other similar purposes and for analytics purposes. You can choose whether or not to enable the location tracking feature through the settings on your device or browser, or when prompted by the EventButiq app. We may also infer your general location information, for example by using your internet protocol (IP) address. When you use the Services, or browse our sites, either through a browser or mobile app, we automatically receive some technical information about the hardware and software that is being used. We, our partners, our advertisers, and third-party advertising networks use various technologies to collect information, including but not limited to cookies, pixels, scripts, and device identifiers. Cookies are small text files that are sent by your computer when you access our services through a browser. We, our partners, our advertisers, and third-party advertising networks may use session cookies (which expire when you close your browser), persistent cookies (which only expire when you choose to clear them from your browser), pixels, scripts, and other identifiers to collect information from your browser or device that helps us do things such as understand how you use our services and other services; personalize your experience; measure, manage, and display advertising on the Services or on other services; understand your usage of the Services and other services in order to serve customized ads; and remember that you are logged into the Services. Our partners, advertisers, and third-party advertising networks may use these technologies to collect information about your online activity over time and across different websites or online services. By using your browser settings, you may block cookies or adjust settings for notifications when a cookie is set. Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no industry consensus as to what site and app operators should do with regard to these signals. Accordingly, unless and until the law is interpreted to require us to do so, we do not monitor or take action with respect to “Do Not Track” signals. For more information on “Do Not Track,” visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com . We employ some third-party services to help us understand the usage of the Services and the performance of advertising, and these third parties may also deploy cookies, pixels, or other identifiers on the Services or collect information through our mobile applications. For example, we use Google Analytics and FullStory to understand, in a non-personally identifying way, how users interact with various portions of the Services -- you can learn more about information that Google may collect here. When you use the Services, or browse our sites, our servers will record information about your usage of the Services and information that is sent by your browser or device. Log information can include things like the IP address of your device, information about the browser, operating system and/or app you are using, unique device identifiers, pages that you navigate to and links that you click, searches that you run on the Services, and other ways you interact with the Services. If you are logged into the Services, this information is stored with your account information. EventButiq may use third-party advertising companies to serve interest-based advertisements to you. These companies compile information from various online sources (including mobile-enabled browsers and applications) to match you with ads that will be the most relevant, interesting, and timely for you. If you would like to opt-out of interest-based advertising, please visit http://optout.networkadvertising.org/#/ . Please note that you will be opted out of all interest-based advertising from all business members of the Network Advertising Initiative for that specific browser on that specific device. If you opt-out, you may continue to see EventButiq’s or our partners’ online advertisements; however, these ads will not be as relevant to you. Our Services are not intended for children under 13 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information (as defined by the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, or “COPPA”) in a manner not permitted by COPPA. If we obtain actual knowledge that any information we collect has been provided by a child under the age of 13, we will delete that information to the extent required by applicable laws. We do not knowingly “sell,” as that term is defined under the California Consumer Protect Act (“CCPA”), the personal information of minors under 16 years old who are California residents. We may use the information we collect for various purposes, including to: Provide the Services to you, improve the quality of the service, and develop new products and services Allow your Butiq (which means the rental warehouse or the individual you have rented the items from for your event and their employees/agents where applicable or our third-party providers) to choose your items at a retailer site, deliver your items to you, and/or call or text you with any updates or issues Charge you for the purchase and delivery costs through one or more payment processing partners Offer you customized content (including advertising, coupons, and promotions) Understand how users interact with the Services (including advertising both on and off the Services) as a whole and to test new features or changes in our features Provide customer service, respond to your communications and requests, and contact you about your use of the Services Send you messages related to our community affairs efforts Fulfill any other business or commercial purposes at your direction or with prior notice to you and your consent You can opt-out of receiving promotional communications from EventButiq under Preferences on the Account -> Settings page or by using the unsubscribe mechanism included in the message, where applicable. The Services comprise a platform that presents you with a set of one or more event rental warehouse or individual renter (“Butiq”) virtual storefronts from which you can select goods for rental, delivery by the Butiq’s inhouse delivery service to your location or, if available, do a will call , for you to pick up in-store. Delivery services may be performed by third parties including the Butiq or third party logistics provider (collectively, “Third Party Providers”). In order to make this work, we need to share information about you and your order with the other parties who help enable the service. This includes, for example, the payment processing partner(s) that we use to validate and charge your credit card, and the “Butiq” (retail partner(s)) from which you are renting goods and any Third Party Providers who facilitate the delivery and pickup of the items.To be clear, only our payment processing partner(s) receive credit card information. We also share information under the following principles: With your consent or at your direction — We will share your information with entities outside of the Services when we have your consent to do so or it is done at your direction. For example: If you enter loyalty card information from a particular Butiq, we share that information with the retailer you chose along with your order so that information can be added to your loyalty card account. If you leave a review for a Butiq publicly on the Services, it is viewable by anyone along with your first name and last initial. If you invite friends to use the Services through our referral program or to share a wishboard, we will share some information with the friends you invite like your name and picture. Likewise, if you choose to join someone else’s wishboard, they will see some of your information. With our Butiqs — We may share your information with our Butiqs in order to provide and maintain the Services. For external processing or service provision — We sometimes share information with third parties to process information on our behalf or to otherwise provide certain services (such as delivery services, advertising services, or information to better tailor our services to you). For the purposes of this processing or provision of services, we may share your information with such third parties under appropriate confidentiality provisions. For legal purposes — We may share your information when we believe that the disclosure is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal process, or requests from law enforcement or regulatory authorities, (b) prevent, detect, or otherwise handle fraud, security, or technical issues, and (c) protect the safety, rights, or property of any person, the public, or EventButiq. On a non-personal or aggregate basis — We share information on both a non-personally identifying basis (including, but not limited to, order and delivery details but not including credit card information) or an aggregate basis. For business purposes — We may share your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company. We may also share your information between and among EventButiq, and its current and future parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, and other companies under common control and ownership. We employ and maintain reasonable administrative, physical, and technical measures designed to safeguard and protect information under our control from unauthorized access, use, and disclosure. In addition, when we collect, maintain, access, use, or disclose your PII, we will do so using systems and processes consistent with information privacy and security requirements under applicable federal and state laws. Nevertheless, transmission via the internet is not completely secure and we cannot guarantee the security of information about you. We will make any legally required notifications of any breach of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of your PII, including, without limitation, breaches of your stored PII (as breaches are defined under applicable state or federal statutes on security breach notification). To the extent permitted by applicable laws, we will make such notifications to you without unreasonable delay, as consistent with (i) the legitimate needs of law enforcement or (ii) any measures necessary to determine the scope of the breach and restore the reasonable integrity of the data system. This policy may change from time to time and any revised Privacy Policy will be posted at this page, so we encourage you to review it regularly. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of this Privacy Policy and, in the case of materials changes to the Privacy Policy, we may provide you with additional notice (such as a notice in our user interface or sending you a notification by email). These additional disclosures for California residents apply only to individuals who reside in California. The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“ CCPA ”) provides additional rights to know, delete and opt out, and requires businesses collecting or disclosing personal information to provide notices and means to exercise those rights. The words used in this section have the meanings given to them in the CCPA, which may be broader than their common meaning. For example, the definition of “personal information” under the CCPA includes your name, but also more general information like age. Although the information we collect is described in greater detail in Section II above, the categories of personal information that we have collected – as described by the CCPA – including in the past 12 months are: Identifiers - including name, email address, and IP address. Other individual customer records - including phone number , billing and shipping address, and credit or debit card information. This category includes personal information protected under pre-existing California law (Cal. Civ. Code 1798.80(e)), and overlaps with other categories listed here Demographics - including your age. This category includes data that may qualify as protected classifications under other California or federal laws. Commercial information - including purchases and engagement with our Services. Internet activity - including your interactions with our Service. Geolocation data - including location enabled services such as WiFi and GPS. Sensory Information - such as recordings of phone calls between you and us and surveillance video at our properties, where permitted by law. Inferences - including information about your interests, preferences and favorites. For more information on our collection practices, including the sources we receive information from, please review “ Information We Collect ” (Section II above). We collect and use these categories of personal information for the business purposes described in “ How We Use Your Information ” (Section III above), including to provide and manage our Services. We disclose the following categories of personal information to third parties for our commercial purposes: identifiers, demographic information, commercial information, relevant order information, internet activity, geolocation data, sensory information, and inferences. We partner with different types of entities to assist with our daily operations and manage our Services. Please review “ What We Share ” (Section IV above) for more detail about the third parties we have shared information with and the underlying principles that guide our sharing practices. California residents have the right to delete the personal information we have collected from you, and the right to know certain information about our data practices in the preceding twelve (12) months. In particular, you have the right to request the following from us: The categories of personal information we have collected about you; The categories of sources from which the personal information was collected; The categories of personal information about you we disclosed for a business purpose or sold; The categories of third parties to whom the personal information was disclosed for a business purpose or sold; The business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling the personal information; and The specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you. If you would like to download or delete your personal information, you can do so by emailing us at support@eventbutiq.com. In the request, please specify which right you are seeking to exercise and the scope of the request. We will confirm receipt of your request within 10 days. We may require specific information from you to help us verify your identity and process your request. If we are unable to verify your identity, we may deny your requests to know or delete. We do not generally sell information as the term “sell” is traditionally understood. However, if and to the extent “sale” under the CCPA is interpreted to include advertising technology activities such as those implemented specifically for interest-based advertising, we will comply with applicable law as to such activity. You can designate an authorized agent to submit requests on your behalf. However, we will require written proof of the agent’s permission to do so and verify your identity directly. You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for the exercise of any of your rights. Financial incentives are programs, benefits, or other offerings, including payments to consumers as compensation, for the disclosure, deletion, or sale of personal information about them. We offer a number of promotions and other incentives at any given time, each with their own individual terms. For a list and more details about our promotions and other incentives current at this time, please visit our “Terms of Promos and Credits” page which lists each promotion and links its respective terms here. Your intentional participation in any of the programs, benefits, or other offerings under this Section will be interpreted as affirmative consent to the terms of such incentive. For example, we offer a referral rewards program to our users who recommend our services to their contacts as prospective customers, when those prospective customers sign up for, and make a purchase using our Services. We generally do not treat consumers differently if they exercise a right under California law. However, in certain circumstances, discounted prices or rewards will require you to be part of the particular program. In such circumstances, we may offer a price difference because the price is reasonably related to the value of your data. If you are a California resident, you may ask EventButiq for a notice describing what categories of personal information EventButiq shares with third parties or affiliates for those third parties or affiliates’ direct marketing purposes and identify the name and address of the third parties that received such personal information. Please submit a written request to the address provided below and specify you want a copy of your California Shine the Light Notice. We may require additional information from you to allow us to verify your identity and are only required to respond to requests once during any calendar year. Under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, California residents are entitled to the following specific consumer rights notice: If you have a question or complaint regarding the Website, please send an email to support@eventbutiq.com.
