(See "Cookies and Pixel Tags" below for further information.)

Information We Share with Others


We contract with other companies to provide certain services, including credit card processing, shipping, email distribution, market research, and promotions management. We provide these companies with only the information they need to perform their services – we work closely with them to ensure that your privacy is respected and protected. These companies are prohibited by contract from using your information for their own marketing purposes or from sharing your information with anyone other than BloomKonnect.


On rare occasions, we may disclose specific information upon governmental request, in response to a court order, or when required by law to do so. We may also share information with companies assisting in fraud protection or investigation. We do not provide information to these agencies or companies for marketing or commercial purposes.


BloomKonnect Email and Other Communications


When you provide us your email address, we may send you emails necessary to process your order or to respond to a request. For example, after you place an order at BloomKonnect.com, you will receive an email confirmation and, in most cases, an email with package tracking information.


Additionally, if you have purchased from BloomKonnect or subscribed to one of our newsletters or otherwise have chosen to receive communications from us, we may occasionally update you on special opportunities via email or other methods.


You can choose to be removed from our mailing lists at any time by managing your subscription account at the following link: Manage Newsletter Subscription Account. You can also unsubscribe by using the link provided in each of our emails. As we only wish to send email to our opt-in customers and do not intentionally spam, please be certain that you have sent your unsubscribe request from the address you wish to be removed. If you have another email address you would like removed, please send another email from that address. Because we plan our mailings in advance, it may take several weeks for your request to become effective. If, due to human error, you continue to receive our communications, please contact us again and we will make every effort to correct the situation.


If you received an email from another company mentioning BloomKonnect and want to unsubscribe, please follow their unsubscribe procedures. If you have any questions or comments, please contact our Customer Care Center at info@bloomkonnect.com or at 1-800-BloomKonnect. You also may contact us at the address below.


We may also contact you if you have entered one of our contests or sweepstakes. If you choose not to receive updates when you enter a contest or sweepstakes, your chances of winning will not be affected.


Cookies and Pixel Tags


A cookie is a small data file that is stored by your web browser on your computer. Cookies enable you to place an order on our website. They also allow us to enhance and personalize your online shopping experience so that the information you receive is more relevant to you.


For example, we use cookies to:


  •  Remember what items are in your shopping basket
  •  Recognize you when you return to our website
  •  Enable you to use stored information, if you have created an account
  •  Study how our customers navigate through our website and which products they request in site searches

If you have set your browser to refuse cookies, please call us at 1-800-BloomKonnect if you wish to place an order.


We also use pixel tags – tiny graphic images – to tell us what parts of our website you have visited, or to measure the effectiveness of any searches you may do on our site. Pixel tags may also enable us to send you email in a format you can read. They also let us know when you have opened an email message from us.


We may contract with other companies who use cookies or other online tools such as pixel tags to measure the performance of a marketing effort on our behalf. We prohibit these companies from using this information for their own marketing purposes or from sharing this information with anyone other than BloomKonnect.
