Privacy

At PittsburghBridalShop.com, we’re here to help you plan one of the most meaningful days of your life—and we get that trust is part of that process. When you visit our website, sign up for tips, or share your thoughts with us, you're giving us something personal. And we don't take that lightly.

This policy isn’t stuffed with fine print no one reads. It’s a straight-up explanation of how we handle your info, what we do with it, and how we keep it safe—written in plain English, not legalese.

What We Collect (And Why)

You don’t have to tell us everything to use our site. But when you do choose to share a little about yourself—like your name, email, or wedding date—we treat it with care. Here's what we might collect:

When you interact with us:

Say you sign up for our newsletter, request planning tips, or reach out with a question—we’ll ask for your name and email so we can respond with something actually useful (no spammy nonsense).

Behind-the-scenes stuff:

We also collect general data when you visit—like what pages you viewed or which blog post made you stick around. This helps us figure out what content you love most so we can give you more of it.

Cookies

Yep, our site uses cookies. They help your experience run smoother and remember preferences (like your location or whether you’ve seen a pop-up already). You can turn them off anytime in your browser settings—no hard feelings.

How We Use Your Info

Here’s what we actually do with the info you give us:

Send you wedding tips, inspiration, or updates you’ve asked for

Improve the way our site works and looks

Respond to your messages in a personal, thoughtful way

Make sure your experience feels seamless (no annoying pop-ups twice in a row)

That’s it. No funny business. No selling your data to strangers in suits.

Sharing (Or Not Sharing) Your Info

We don’t sell, rent, or hand off your data to shady third parties. Ever. Period.

Sometimes, we use trusted services (like our email newsletter provider or website tools) to help us run things efficiently. They see just enough data to do their job, and they’re expected to keep it safe and private—just like we do.

If the law ever requires us to share something (say, a court asks nicely), we’ll comply. But that’s the only exception.

Your Info, Your Rules

Here’s what you can do if you’ve shared info with us:

Want to stop getting emails? Click the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any email. Easy peasy.

Want us to update or delete your info? Just shoot us a quick message at contact@pittsburghbridalshop.com and we’ll sort it out—no awkward questions.

Not into cookies? Adjust your browser to block or delete them anytime.

We believe you should have full control over what you share. And we’ll always respect that.

Protecting What You Share

We’ve got security measures in place to protect your information. Nothing is ever 100% hack-proof (hey, even billion-dollar companies get breached), but we do everything we reasonably can to keep your info safe and away from prying eyes.

Third-Party Links

We sometimes link to other helpful wedding sites, vendors, or inspiration blogs. If you click through, just remember—you’re entering their world now, with their rules and privacy policies. We don’t control those, so be sure to give them a quick read if you’re sharing info.

Just So You Know: Kids and Privacy

This site isn’t meant for kids under 13. If you’re a parent and think your child may have sent us info, get in touch and we’ll make sure it’s deleted. We care about privacy at every age.

Updates to This Policy

We may tweak this page now and then—if laws change, our tools change, or we just figure out a better way to explain something. Any updates will be posted right here. If you keep using the site after a change, it means you’re cool with the update.

Talk to Us

Got questions? Concerns? Want to know what info we have on you—or make it disappear like a bouquet toss? We’re here for that.

Thank you for trusting us with your journey. We know how special this time in your life is, and we’re honored to be a part of it—respecting your privacy every step of the way.
