Privacy policy

Last updated: July 22, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Bayou Beignet ("Bayou Beignet," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit bayoubeignet.com, place an order, create an account, subscribe to communications or recurring purchases, contact us, or otherwise use our services (collectively, the "Services"). Our store is hosted by Shopify, which processes information needed to provide the Services.

Personal information we collect

Depending on how you use the Services, we may collect:

  • Identifiers and contact details, such as your name, email address, billing and shipping addresses, and any contact details you voluntarily provide.
  • Order and commercial information, such as products viewed or purchased, order history, subscription selections, discounts, returns, refunds, and customer-service communications.
  • Payment information. Payments are processed by Shopify and other payment providers. We generally do not receive or store complete payment-card numbers.
  • Account information, such as login credentials and account preferences.
  • Device and online activity, such as IP address, browser and device type, cookie identifiers, pages viewed, referring URLs, interactions, and approximate location derived from IP address.
  • Communications and content you send through email, forms, reviews, surveys, or other features.
  • Fraud, security, and compliance information used to protect customers, our business, and the Services.

How we collect information

We collect information directly from you, automatically through cookies and similar technologies, and from Shopify and service providers that help operate our store, process payments, fulfill orders, deliver communications, prevent fraud, analyze performance, provide reviews or subscriptions, and market our products.

How we use personal information

We may use personal information to:

  • operate, maintain, personalize, and improve the Services;
  • process payments, orders, shipments, subscriptions, cancellations, refunds, and customer-service requests;
  • authenticate accounts and remember preferences;
  • communicate about orders, products, policy changes, security, and promotions where permitted;
  • measure store performance and understand how customers use the Services;
  • detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents, and unlawful activity;
  • comply with legal, tax, accounting, regulatory, and contractual obligations; and
  • establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

Cookies, analytics, and advertising

We and our partners use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to provide store functions, remember preferences, measure traffic and sales, prevent fraud, and, where permitted, personalize advertising. Depending on your location, optional technologies are used only after any consent required by law. Where available, you can use the cookie banner or cookie-preferences tool to manage optional cookies. Browser controls may also limit cookies, but disabling necessary cookies can affect store functionality.

How we disclose personal information

We may disclose personal information to Shopify; payment processors; hosting, security, fraud-prevention, analytics, advertising, email, review, subscription, fulfillment, and shipping providers; professional advisers; government authorities when legally required; and parties involved in a merger, financing, sale, reorganization, or transfer of all or part of our business. These parties receive information only for legitimate business or legal purposes and are expected to handle it under applicable obligations.

We do not sell personal information for money. Some analytics or advertising activities may be considered a "sale," "sharing," or targeted advertising under certain privacy laws. Where those laws apply, you may opt out through available cookie or privacy controls or by emailing us.

Agentic storefronts and sales channels

When our products are made available through Shopify-powered sales channels or agentic storefronts, product information may be shared with the applicable channel. If you purchase through a channel that supports direct checkout, the channel and Shopify may process information needed to complete the purchase, such as your name, email address, shipping address, and order details. The channel's own privacy terms may also apply.

Retention and security

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing the Services, maintaining business and tax records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and complying with law. Retention periods vary by the type of information and legal obligation. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards, but no transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of personal information; to restrict or object to certain processing; to withdraw consent; to opt out of certain sales, sharing, targeted advertising, or marketing; and to appeal a decision regarding a privacy request. These rights are subject to legal limitations and verification. We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right.

To submit a privacy request, email contact@bayoubeignet.com with the subject line "Privacy Request." Describe the request and the email address associated with your account or order. We may request information reasonably necessary to verify your identity and authority. An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, subject to verification.

International processing

We and our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. Where required, appropriate legal mechanisms are used for international transfers.

Children

The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, email us so we can review and delete it as appropriate.

Third-party sites and services

The Services may link to third-party sites or services. Their privacy and security practices are governed by their own policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal obligations, or Services. The "Last updated" date shows when the current version became effective. Material changes will be communicated when required by law.
