Shep’s Yard Landscape Supply (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website https://shepsyard.com (the “Site”), a Pennsylvania-based landscaping supply company offering bulk materials, delivery, and online ordering. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal information when you visit our Site, create an account, place an order (as a guest or logged-in user), sign up for our newsletter, or otherwise interact with us.
By using the Site or providing us with information, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or provide personal information.

Information Collected Automatically When you visit the Site, we and our service providers collect:
- Device and usage data: IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited, time/date of access, referring/exit pages.
- Cookies and similar technologies: for Site functionality (e.g., shopping cart, login persistence), analytics, and performance.
Payment Information We use Stripe to process payments. We do not store full credit card numbers or sensitive payment details on our servers—Stripe handles this securely. We receive limited confirmation data (e.g., transaction ID, payment status).
We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to:
- Process and fulfill orders, including delivery (driveway drop-off) and customer support.
- Manage accounts, maintain order history, and provide login access.
- Send transactional emails (e.g., order confirmations, shipping updates).
- Add you to our mailing list and, with your consent (via signup or order), send marketing/promotional emails about products, offers, or updates.
- Analyze Site usage and improve our services/products via Google Analytics.
- Prevent fraud, abuse, or security issues.
- Comply with legal obligations (e.g., tax, record-keeping).
3. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with:
- Service providers: Stripe (for payments), WooCommerce/WordPress (platform hosting and features), shipping/delivery carriers, email service providers (for newsletters/marketing), and hosting/IT providers. These parties are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for our purposes.
- Google Analytics: for aggregated usage analytics (see section on Google Analytics below).
- Legal requirements: if required by law, court order, subpoena, or to protect our rights, safety, or property.
- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale.
4. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our Site. Google Analytics collects data such as IP address, device information (browser, OS), and usage details (pages viewed, interactions). This helps us improve the Site. Google may use cookies for this.
You can opt out of Google Analytics data collection by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or managing preferences in your Google Account. For more details, see Google’s Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
5. Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies for essential functions, performance, and analytics. You can manage preferences via your browser settings (note: disabling may affect Site functionality like checkout). We do not respond to Do Not Track signals at this time.
6. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. However, no internet transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Your Choices and Rights
- Marketing emails: Unsubscribe via the link in any promotional email or contact us.
- Access, correction, deletion: Contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information (we may verify identity first).
- Account data: You can manage/update your account details by logging in.
- As we serve only Pennsylvania residents (USA), we follow applicable US laws. Pennsylvania has no comprehensive consumer privacy law like CCPA, but we provide transparency and honor reasonable requests. If CalOPPA or similar applies, we note our policy discloses collection practices.
We retain data as needed for business purposes (e.g., order records for accounting/tax) or legal requirements, then delete or anonymize it.
8. Third-Party Links and Services
The Site may link to third-party sites/services (e.g., Stripe). We are not responsible for their privacy practices—review theirs directly.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy. Changes will be posted here with a revised “Last updated” date. Continued use after changes means acceptance.
