1. WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT
A. Information You Provide
We collect information you provide directly when you interact with us, including:
-
Contact and account data: name, email address, phone number, mailing and billing address, authentication credentials, contact preferences.
-
Order and service data: purchase history, bespoke tailoring requests, appointment and fitting details, measurements and tailoring specifications (processed as limited sensitive personal information where required).

Optional profile data: job title, date of birth (only for celebratory outreach if you provide it).
We do not collect biometric identifiers, genetic data, health records, or precise GPS location.
B. Payment Data
Payments are processed by third‑party payment processors (for example, Shopify, Stripe, PayPal, Affirm, Afterpay, Square, Chase, Shop Pay, Venmo). We do not store full payment card numbers. Payment processors collect and process payment data under their own privacy policies.
C. SMS and Messaging Program Data
If you opt in to receive SMS, MMS, RCS, or other mobile messaging, we collect and process:
-
Phone number; opt‑in status and timestamp; source of opt‑in.
-
Message metadata: send/delivery timestamps, message type (transactional or marketing), replies and keywords, click and interaction data, delivery confirmations.
-
Device and carrier metadata when provided by the messaging platform (device type, carrier, mobile advertising identifier).
-
Suppression and opt‑out status to honor unsubscribe requests.
We use this data to deliver transactional messages (order confirmations, appointment reminders), send marketing messages where you consented, maintain consent records, prevent fraud, and measure performance. Consent is not a condition of purchase. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to unsubscribe; reply HELP for assistance. To update preferences or request deletion of messaging data, contact hello@thetailorynyc.com.
D. Information Automatically Collected
When you access our Services we automatically collect:
-
Technical data: IP address, device type, browser and operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, interaction data, and approximate location derived from IP address.
-
Usage data: session duration, clicks, feature usage, and performance metrics.
We collect approximate geolocation (city/state level) derived from IP address for fraud prevention, tax calculation, regional compliance, and content localization. We do not require precise GPS location; users may disable device location permissions.
E. Pseudonymous Visitor Identifiers
We create or retrieve pseudonymous visitor identifiers using first‑party and third‑party cookies, pixels, SDKs, local storage, and similar technologies. A pseudonymous identifier is a coded identifier associated with a browser or device that does not by itself reveal your name.
Uses: site operation and security, session continuity, remembering preferences, analytics, marketing attribution, personalization, cart and browse abandonment detection, and triggering reminders where permitted.
Linking identifiers to personal data: if you later provide identifying information (for example, by logging in, creating an account, or providing an email or phone number), we may associate that information with the pseudonymous identifier to provide cross‑session continuity and personalized experiences consistent with your consent choices and applicable law.
F. Information From Third Parties
We may receive information from analytics providers, advertising networks, social platforms, marketing partners, payment processors, and data enrichment providers. This may include advertising identifiers, IP addresses, inferred interests, and other contact or device data.

5. COOKIES, TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES, AND PSEUDONYMOUS IDENTIFIERS
We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functionality, analytics, attribution, advertising, personalization, and cart tracking.

Types of trackers: essential cookies, functional cookies, analytics cookies, advertising cookies, and pseudonymous identifiers.
Managing cookies: You can manage cookies through your browser or device settings or via our cookie preference tool. Blocking cookies may affect site functionality (for example, saved carts or preferences may be lost). For mobile advertising identifiers, you can reset or opt out via your device settings.
6. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
We operate primarily in the United States and may transfer personal information to countries outside your jurisdiction. Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or other lawful transfer mechanisms. By using our Services, you consent to such transfers as described in this Notice.
7. RETENTION
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Notice, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Inactive account data is not retained longer than eighty‑four (84) months from the start of inactivity unless otherwise required by law.
Messaging retention: SMS consent records, suppression lists, and messaging metadata are retained as necessary to comply with legal obligations and to honor opt‑outs; these records are included in our general retention schedule.
8. SECURITY
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. We require third‑party providers (including messaging and analytics vendors) to implement appropriate security measures and to process data only under contract and our instructions. No system can guarantee absolute security.
