Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 29, 2025

OwnUrBloom, Inc. (“OwnUrBloom,” “we,” “our,” or “the Platform”) is committed to protecting your personal and business information.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your data when you visit ownurbloom.com (the “Website”) or use our related tools, dashboards, and fulfillment services (collectively, the “Services”).

As a zero-cost brand incubation platform for U.S. entrepreneurs, we believe in transparency, fairness, and control over your data. We only collect the information necessary to power your business and deliver our Services — and we never sell your personal data.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of information to provide and improve our Services:

A. Personal Information. Full name, email address, and account credentials (for account creation and identity verification). Contact information (e.g., phone number, shipping or billing address).

B. Business Information. Brand name, logo, description, and related creative assets. Product selections from our catalog or custom submissions. Preferred sales channels (e.g., TikTok, Instagram, Shopify).

C. Usage Data. Browser type, device identifiers, operating system, IP address, referring URLs, session duration, and activity logs. Analytics data collected via cookies, pixels, and third-party analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Meta Pixel).

D. Financial & Fulfillment Data. Order numbers, sales totals, transaction records, shipping details, and settlement data. Payment processing details (handled by secure third-party processors; OYB does not store full credit card data).

E. Third-Party Integrations. Information provided through linked accounts (e.g., Google, Meta, or TikTok login), subject to their privacy settings and permissions.

Sensitive Data.
OwnUrBloom does not intentionally collect sensitive personal information such as racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, biometric data, health information, or political opinions. Any such data voluntarily shared (e.g., in brand storytelling) is treated with confidentiality.

2. How We Use Your Information

We process your data for the following lawful purposes:

  • Account Creation & Service Delivery: To register your entrepreneur account, process brand applications, and manage order fulfillment.

  • Transaction Management: To process and confirm product orders, manage settlements, and deliver revenue reports.

  • Platform Improvement: To analyze engagement data, improve dashboard functionality, and develop new features.

  • Communication: To send operational emails, product updates, and educational or marketing communications (you may opt out at any time).

  • Fraud Prevention & Security: To detect and prevent unauthorized transactions, account breaches, or misuse of the Platform.

  • Legal Compliance: To comply with applicable U.S. federal and state laws, tax obligations, or KYC/AML (Know Your Customer / Anti-Money Laundering) requirements.

We will never use your personal data for purposes other than those disclosed here without obtaining your explicit consent.

3. Information Sharing & Disclosure

We respect your privacy — we do not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties.

We only share data when necessary for legitimate operational reasons:

A. Service Providers. We share limited data with third parties that help us operate the Platform, including fulfillment partners for manufacturing, packaging, and shipping; payment processors for settlement and remittance; and analytics and security providers for performance tracking and fraud prevention. All such partners are contractually required to protect your data and use it only for authorized purposes.

B. Legal & Regulatory Disclosures. We may disclose your data to comply with law enforcement requests, subpoenas, or court orders; regulatory requirements (e.g., FTC, IRS, state authorities); and legal obligations under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA).

C. Business Transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. You will be notified in advance of any material ownership change.

D. Aggregated & De-Identified Data. We may share aggregated analytics or statistical data that cannot be used to identify any individual.

4. Data Retention

We retain personal and business information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy, comply with tax, accounting, or legal obligations, and maintain legitimate business records. Financial transaction and fulfillment records are retained for seven (7) years to comply with IRS and audit requirements.

Once data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymized.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including SSL/TLS encryption during transmission, firewalls and intrusion detection systems, role-based access controls for internal personnel, and regular vulnerability scans and compliance audits. Data is stored on U.S.-based servers with data centers that meet SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR-equivalent security standards.

While we take reasonable steps to safeguard your data, no system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection from unauthorized access or cyberattacks. You are encouraged to maintain strong passwords and enable multi-factor authentication where available.

6. Your Privacy Rights (U.S. & California Residents)

You have the following rights concerning your personal data:

  • Access & Portability: Request a copy of your personal data and details on how it’s processed.

  • Correction: Update or rectify inaccurate or outdated information via your dashboard or by contacting hello@ownurbloom.com.

  • Deletion (“Right to Be Forgotten”): Request deletion of your data, except where retention is legally required (e.g., tax compliance).

  • Opt-Out of Marketing: You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time through your dashboard or the unsubscribe link in emails.

  • Do Not Sell My Information (CCPA): California residents may request that we refrain from “selling” or sharing their personal data with third parties (though we do not sell data).

  • Right to Lodge a Complaint: You may contact the Federal Trade Commission (www.ftc.gov) or your state’s attorney general if you believe your data rights have been violated.

We will respond to all verified requests within 30 days as required by law.

7. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

OwnUrBloom uses cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience.

  • Essential Cookies: Enable site functionality (login sessions, cart management).

  • Analytics Cookies: Help us understand user engagement and improve site performance.

  • Marketing Cookies: Used (if enabled) for advertising personalization and social media integration.

You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings. Please note that disabling cookies may impact site functionality.

8. Children’s Privacy

Our Platform is not intended for children under 13 years old, and we do not knowingly collect data from minors. If we learn that a child under 13 has provided personal information, we will promptly delete it and take steps to close any related account.

9. International Users

Our Services are designed for U.S. users. If you access our Platform from outside the United States, you consent to the transfer and processing of your information in the U.S., where privacy laws may differ from those in your country.

10. Limitation of Liability

By using our Services, you acknowledge that you share data voluntarily and at your discretion. OwnUrBloom is not liable for unauthorized access, disclosure, or data loss caused by factors beyond our reasonable control (e.g., cyberattacks, third-party breaches, force majeure events). Your continued use of the Platform constitutes acceptance of these terms and the inherent risks of online data processing.

11. Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect legal, operational, or technological changes. When updates are material, we will provide at least 15 days’ notice via email or prominent posting on our Website. The updated version will include a new “Effective Date.” Continued use of the Services after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
