Introduction

CNY Coffee ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our website www.cnycoffee.com (the "Site"), how we use it, and the choices you have. We collect only the minimum information needed to process orders, run fundraisers, evaluate wholesale inquiries, and communicate with our customers and partners.

Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

  • Order information: name, shipping address, billing address, email address, and phone number, provided when you place an order.

  • Payment information: processed securely by our payment processor (e.g., [Shopify Payments / Stripe / PayPal]). We do not store your full credit card number on our own servers.

  • Fundraiser information: the organization or group name, organizer's name, email, and phone number, provided when setting up or running a fundraiser with us.

  • Wholesale inquiry information: business name, contact name, email, phone number, and any details submitted about the business (such as order volume or intended use), provided when requesting wholesale pricing or partnership.

  • Contact information: name and email address, if you sign up for our newsletter or contact us directly.

  • Usage data: basic website analytics such as pages visited and general location (city/region), collected automatically through cookies or analytics tools.

We do not collect sensitive personal information (such as government ID numbers, health data, or precise geolocation) and do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
