Welcome to FTDi.com (the "Site"), an Internet property of Florists Transworld Delivery, Inc. ("FTD", "we", "us" or "our"). At FTD, protecting the information you provide to us is our highest priority. In this policy, we provide information on the way your information is collected and used, and demonstrate our commitment to protecting your privacy. FTD restricts access to your information only to those responsible for providing you with products and services.
1. Information We Collect
Personally Identifiable Information
When you become an FTD Member Florist you may create an account on FTDi.com. When you join FTD, you are required to provide FTD with information including personal information about you and your business, such as, but not limited, to your name, the name of your company, shipping address, telephone number, email address and billing address, which is then automatically carried over to your online account if you choose to create one on FTDi.com. FTD stores this information in its secure internal database. When you create an online account, your account will have a unique password of your choosing and you can change your password as many times as you like. Your password is needed to access your online account and keeps your information private and secure. All passwords are kept encrypted in the FTD database. The account identification number is your FTD Member Number and you will need your individual account identification number in order to sign into your account.
When you place an order through FTDi.com we will access your stored information and will present it to you online before you complete your transaction so you may confirm the shipping information is accurate.

In order to provide you with more relevant information and email content, we may use your user history, contact information and other registration information to provide you with more relevant information and email content. We may send emails to our member florists regarding changes in our services or other information we believe will be of interest. If you do not wish to receive our exclusive email offers and updates, you can opt-out at any time by scrolling to the bottom of any of the received emails and clicking the "unsubscribe" link.

We may share your information with our affiliates and other reputable vendors for the purpose of sending out special offers via email and/or in connection with the services provided by our Site such as the delivery of flowers.
We may, from time to time, offer content (e.g., contest, sweepstakes or promotions) that is sponsored by or cobranded with identified third parties, including affiliated businesses. By virtue of these relationships, the third parties may obtain personally identifiable information that users voluntarily submit to participate in the activity. We have no control over these third parties' use of this information. Since these third parties will use your information in accordance with their own privacy practices, you should check their websites for information regarding their privacy policies.
We cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personally identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this privacy policy. For example, we may be required to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. We can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements or other activity that may be illegal or may expose us to legal liability.
