This Privacy Policy describes how Buffalino Art (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and discloses personal information when individuals visit or make a purchase from the website www.buffalinoart.com (the “Site”). A privacy policy for an ecommerce business should explain what information is collected, how it is used, how it is shared, and how consumers can contact the business about privacy matters.
Information Collected
Personal information collected through the Site may include:
- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Shipping address
- Billing address
- Order details, including purchased artwork
- Payment-related information processed through third-party payment providers
- Device and usage information, such as IP address, browser type, cookies, and activity on the Site
Businesses commonly describe contact details, order information, payment-related processing, and device or usage data in ecommerce privacy notices.
How Information Is Used
Personal information may be used to:
- Process and fulfill orders
- Send order confirmations, shipping updates, and service messages
- Respond to questions and customer service requests
- Detect fraud, abuse, or security incidents
- Improve the Site, product offerings, and customer experience
- Send promotional emails or marketing messages where permitted by law or based on the visitor’s consent
A privacy notice should explain the main purposes for collecting and using personal information, including order fulfillment, customer support, site improvement, and security.
How Information Is Shared
Personal information may be shared with service providers that support operation of the Site, such as:
- Payment processors
- Shipping and delivery carriers
- Website hosting providers
- IT and ecommerce platform providers
- Analytics or advertising partners
California law gives consumers more control over personal information collected by businesses, and businesses should explain applicable disclosure practices in their privacy notices. Service providers may process information only as needed to provide their services or comply with legal obligations.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Site may use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, keep the shopping experience functioning properly, understand how visitors use the Site, and support marketing or advertising activities.
Visitors can usually control cookies through browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the Site function.
California Privacy Rights
If a visitor is a California resident, that visitor may have the right to request access to personal information, request deletion, request correction of inaccurate personal information, and opt out of certain sales or sharing of personal information, subject to exceptions under applicable law.
For businesses operating exclusively online and dealing directly with consumers, California guidance indicates that an email address and webform may satisfy request-submission requirements, while a toll-free number is not always required.

Reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards are used to help protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
