Customers and corporate clients are responsible for providing recipient information lawfully and should provide only information reasonably necessary for the gifting project.

3. Dietary, Allergy & Similar Information

Customers may voluntarily provide dietary restrictions, allergy concerns, food preferences, or related information when requesting food gifts, curated gifts, corporate gifting, concierge services, or other customized projects.

GFM VIP uses this information for purposes such as:

Customers should provide only information necessary for the particular gifting request.

GFM VIP does not use voluntarily supplied allergy or dietary information to diagnose medical conditions or for unrelated health-related purposes.

When information relates to another recipient, the customer or corporate client is responsible for having an appropriate basis to provide that information.

Depending on the law that applies to a particular customer, some of these activities may be legally defined as a “sale,” “sharing,” or use of information for targeted advertising even when no money is exchanged for the information.

Where required by applicable law, customers may have the right to opt out of these activities through available privacy settings, cookie controls, or other methods provided by GFM VIP or Shopify.

13. Marketing Communications

GFM VIP may send promotional emails or other marketing communications when permitted by law.

Customers may unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link contained in the communication or through available account/privacy settings.

Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent GFM VIP from sending necessary transactional communications such as:

  • Order confirmations.
  • Shipping notices.
  • Membership notices.
  • Account communications.
  • Fraud or security notices.

15. Recipient Lists & Corporate Project Files

Corporate gifting projects may involve spreadsheets, documents, or other files containing recipient information.

Corporate clients should:

  • Provide only information necessary for fulfillment.

  • Record handling.
  • Fraud monitoring.
  • Secure disposal.

No website, electronic system, or method of transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Customers should not send complete payment-card numbers, passwords, Social Security numbers, or other highly sensitive information through ordinary email unless specifically instructed to use an appropriate secure method.

17. Data Breach & Security Incidents

If GFM VIP becomes aware of a security incident involving personal information, we will investigate the circumstances and take appropriate actions consistent with applicable law.

This may include notifying affected individuals, regulators, service providers, or other parties when legally required.

19. Privacy Requests

To submit a privacy request, contact:

info@gfmvipinc.vip

Suggested subject:

Privacy Request

Please include enough information for GFM VIP to understand the request.

We may need to verify your identity before providing, correcting, or deleting personal information.

For security reasons, GFM VIP may decline to provide information when we cannot reasonably verify the requester or when disclosure would improperly reveal information about another person.

20. Gift Recipient Privacy Requests

A recipient who did not personally purchase from GFM VIP may still contact us regarding personal information that GFM VIP maintains about them.

Because some information may also form part of the purchaser’s transaction, corporate project records, accounting records, fraud records, or other legally retained documentation, deletion or access requests may be subject to applicable legal and operational limitations.

21. Children’s Privacy

The GFM VIP website and purchasing services are intended for adults and are not designed to collect personal information directly from children under 13.

GFM VIP may receive limited information about a child as a gift recipient when that information is supplied by a parent, guardian, purchaser, or other authorized adult for legitimate gifting or delivery purposes.

Customers should not provide unnecessary personal information about children.

If we learn that personal information was collected directly from a child in a manner prohibited by applicable law, we will take appropriate action.

22. Third-Party Websites & Services

Our website may contain links to websites, platforms, social-media services, payment services, or other third parties.

GFM VIP does not control the privacy practices of independent third parties.

Customers should review the privacy policies of those services before providing information to them.

23. International Visitors & Transfers

GFM VIP is based in the United States.

Our service providers may process or store information in the United States or other countries.

Privacy and data-protection laws may differ between jurisdictions.

When required by applicable law, GFM VIP and our service providers will use appropriate mechanisms for applicable international data processing or transfers.

Customers located outside the United States should understand that information may be processed in the United States in connection with the services they request.

If GFM VIP is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale of business assets, or similar transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction subject to applicable law and appropriate protections.
