When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it.

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year.

Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
We care about your privacy, safety, and security. We will not sell your information or contribute to spam.
When you purchase products from King Orchards, we capture information needed to complete the transaction, including credit card information. We collect information about your name, email address, physical mailing address, phone number, and other relevant data needed to complete the transaction. If you purchase with a credit card, we collect the card number, card type, expiration date, and related security data. If you register to receive information from King Orchards in the form of our mailing list subscription, we collect your email address and name. We collect information about the products you purchase, and information regarding personalization requests. If you wish to have us ship your order to an address other than the one associated with your credit card, then we collect that information as well. When we process your order, we verify the shipping address against an address verification service that may correct the address to a more accurate version to make delivery of your package more likely.
Cookies
King Orchards uses “cookies” to collect information about your browsing and purchasing activity. Cookies are used both to identify repeat visitors to our site, but also to report information about browsing history and user intent. It is an integral aspect of the purchasing technology, as well, and it is not possible to purchase online from King Orchards with your cookies disabled. King Orchards also uses Google Analytics to provide data about visitor website use.
How is the data collected then used?
We use the personal information that you provide to use to complete your purchase, to contact you regarding your order status, to respond to your request for additional information or assistance, to notify you in the event that someone attempts a fraudulent purchase using your personal information, to send you email communications, and to verify or correct information regarding your personalization request.
What information is shared with others?
King Orchards is careful to not share your personal information unless it is necessary to complete your transaction. To that end, personal information is shared with our credit card processing firm. It is necessary to share your address, for example, in order to have the package processed and mailed.
We would disclose personal information under a court order or subpoena, or in order to comply with a similar legal requirement. We would also disclose information necessary in order to evaluate cases of apparent fraud, credit, or debt collection.
PayPal
King Orchards partners with PayPal to provide purchasing options that go beyond what we offer to customers through our purchasing platform. For customers who choose to purchase through PayPal, no credit card or financial account information is transmitted to King Orchards beyond notification that payment has been made and received.
How is the information that we collect safeguarded?
Our secure servers protect your information using advanced encryption techniques and firewall technology. Our GeoTrust® QuickSSL® Premium certificate is evidence of our site’s security validation.
We require that any company with whom we have a contractual relationship to provide services as part of our order processing function to be similarly protected using the best available technology.
