Introduction
The privacy of our clientele is strictly protected. While we reserve the right to use images from our contracted events in our advertising and website, we take such actions with careful consideration of how it may impact our clients.
Donnie Brown Weddings and Events respects each individual’s right to personal privacy. We will collect and use information only in the ways disclosed in this statement. This statement applies to information collected at Donnie Brown Weddings and Events’ Web site, through business contracts, and through industry connections.

Other information may be collected through private forms on our site, for clients who request a custom wedding website or custom monograms.
We may also collect phone, address, and billing information which our users divulge about other people and themselves when meeting with clients for consultation. Donnie Brown Weddings and Events does not actively market to children, and we never knowingly ask a child under 13 to divulge personal information.

All personally identifiable information is collected voluntarily. To receive our products and services, information including, but not limited to, contact and billing data, event date, time, and location is mandatory in order to ensure services and product availability, and to prevent double booking.

Part II. Information Usage
The information collected by Donnie Brown Weddings and Events will be used for producing floral and event decorations and to provide event coordination and consultations, be they commercial or private.

Client and company names may be placed on our website’s notable clients list (should we decide to include such a list), unless the client objects.
Registered/contracted users may receive additional announcements from us about products, services, special deals, and a newsletter, only when such communications directly relate to an existing or pending contract with said users. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications, though doing so may inhibit our ability to produce contracted services and products.
The information we collect will not be used to create customer profiles based on browsing or purchasing history. We may, as necessary, supplement information collected at our Web site, or during consultations, with data from other sources such as credit history to authorize purchases.
We may share data with the following third parties: banks, credit card processing agents, and wedding and event professionals who are working on the same event. No sensitive information, such as credit card information, checking accounts, etc., will be divulged to any third parties, unless the information is required to process payments, as in the case of credit card processing agents or banking institutions or to make authorized payments to vendors on behalf of the client.
