Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information BQ Farms Inc. ("BjornQorn") collects when you visit our website, contact us, or place a wholesale order — how we use it, and what choices you have. We don't sell personal information.
The short version. We collect very little. A few times a year, we email our existing wholesale buyers about new products and events — you can unsubscribe from those at any time. We use basic web analytics to understand site traffic. California residents have specific rights under the CCPA — see Section 8.
01 Information we collect
Information you give us
If you contact us, place a wholesale order, or fill out our order form, you provide information like your name, business name, email address, shipping address, phone number, and order details. We collect only what's needed to respond to you and fulfill orders.
Information collected automatically
When you visit our site, our hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically receive standard log information: IP address, browser type, referring page, pages viewed, and approximate location based on IP. This is used to keep the site running and understand how it's used.
02 How we use it
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to inquiries and process wholesale orders;
- Send transactional communications (order confirmations, invoices, shipping updates);
- Occasionally email our existing wholesale buyers — a few times a year — about new products, seasonal items, and events. Every such email includes an unsubscribe link, and we honor opt-outs promptly;
- Operate, secure, and improve the website;
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms.
We do not sell your information, share it for behavioral advertising, or use it for marketing beyond the limited product and event updates described above.
03 How we share it
We don't sell personal information. We share it only with:
- Service providers who help us run the business — for example, our accounting software, payment processor, shipping carriers, web hosting, and our email service provider (used to send order communications and occasional product updates). They only receive what they need to do their job and are bound by their own confidentiality obligations.
- Authorities or other parties when required by law, subpoena, or to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
- A successor entity if BjornQorn is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
04 Your choices
You can opt out of our occasional product and event emails at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of any such email, or by emailing us directly. Opting out of marketing emails won't affect transactional communications related to your orders (confirmations, invoices, shipping updates), which we'll continue to send as needed to do business with you.
05 Cookies & analytics
Our site uses a small number of cookies and similar technologies to remember basic preferences and to power analytics. We use third-party analytics tools to measure traffic and understand which pages are useful. These tools may set their own cookies and receive your IP address and browsing activity on our site.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Doing so may affect some site features but won't prevent you from browsing.
06 How we protect it
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. That said, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we can't guarantee absolute security.
07 How long we keep it
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described above, to comply with our legal and tax obligations, and to resolve disputes. Wholesale order records are typically retained for at least seven years to meet accounting and tax requirements.
08 Your California privacy rights
If you're a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the CPRA, gives you the following rights regarding personal information we hold about you:
- Right to know what categories and specific pieces of personal information we've collected, the sources, the purposes, and the categories of third parties we share it with;
- Right to delete personal information we've collected, subject to certain exceptions (like records we need to keep for tax purposes);
- Right to correct inaccurate personal information;
- Right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. BjornQorn does not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA;
- Right to limit use of sensitive personal information. We don't collect sensitive personal information as defined by the CCPA;
- Right to non-discrimination for exercising any of these rights.
To exercise any of these rights, email sales@bqfarms.com with the subject line "California Privacy Request." We'll verify your identity (typically by confirming details we already have on file) and respond within 45 days. You may also use an authorized agent — we'll require written proof of authorization.
Categories of information we've collected in the last 12 months
- Identifiers (name, email, business address, phone);
- Commercial information (wholesale order history);
- Internet activity (browsing on our site, log data);
- Approximate geolocation (from IP address).
We have not sold or shared any of these categories for cross-context behavioral advertising in the last 12 months.
09 Children
Our site and products are marketed to adults and wholesale buyers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we'll delete it.
