Privacy Policy
July 1, 2020
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
At Montanari Group we value our customers and are committed to protecting your privacy. We collect customer information on our website at Luminaire.com (our Website) in an effort to improve your shopping experience and to communicate with you about our unique offering of products and design services. We have developed this Privacy Policy to inform you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information we receive from users of our Website. Our California Privacy Notice also applies to information we collect from California visitors to our showrooms.
Information We Collect
Montanari Group classifies personal information as any information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer, or derived from such information.
Depending on your interactions with Luminaire, we collect and use different types of personal information from visitors, customers, prospective customers and agents. When you place an order, we need to know your name, e-mail address, billing address and credit card number, with expiration date and security code. This allows us to process and fulfill your order quickly and confidently provide better customer support. We also maintain a record of your purchases online and in our showrooms. We may acquire from a third-party potential customer names and mailing addresses for select postal mailings and online marketing campaigns. From time to time we may contract with a third party to assist us in maintaining and managing our customer database, to expedite notifications of special events and promotions and to communicate with our customers. We do not authorize any third parties to make any other use of your information. We collect name, contact information, and video images from security cameras, in some of our showrooms.
How We Use Personal Information
We use personal information to:
present you with information through our Website and email services;
process orders;
maintain and improve our Website;
respond to your requests and provide customer service, including responding to any problems that may arise, such as difficulties in navigating our Website or accessing certain features;
personalize or display advertisements to you on third-party platforms;
improve our services or offerings; and
fulfill our legal or contractual obligations to you.
As with transactions elsewhere, when you purchase products, services, or programs via one of our Website, your credit card company will also retain certain information regarding your purchase. We will not otherwise provide any personal data to your credit card company without your permission.
We may share the information collected with joint venture participants, affiliates, agents, current or prospective business participants, businesses under common control, and third-party businesses or service providers participating in administering our programs or services, and to those providing business functions such as technical support, customer service, marketing assistance, etc. These businesses will only have access to information as necessary to perform their functions and to the extent permitted by law.
In the event of the sale or transfer of our business to a third-party buyer, including in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation, we may, as necessary, share your data with the buyer or transferee.
In the event that we have to collect on a debt owed to us by you, we may, as necessary, share your information with an attorney, collection agency or a court of law to enforce our rights and collect what is owed.
Under certain circumstances, we may be obligated or compelled to disclose your personal information: when required by law, court order or government agency, or when disclosing such information is reasonably required to protect the company, its property, the Website, or the safety of visitors or others.
Security
To protect your privacy and security, prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure correct use of information, we employ reasonable and current Internet security methods and technologies. We use Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”), the current industry-standard encryption protocol, for all financial transactions through this Web Site, and to protect your personal information online. While we incorporate standard industry practices internally and with our services providers, which we believe is sufficient for the information involved, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Any information that you provide to us via email should be treated with extra caution, as we cannot control the level of security available through email providers.
Cookies and IP Addresses
Like many sites, we use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer our Website. Your IP address is used to help identify you and your shopping cart and to gather broad demographic information. We use cookies to ascertain which web pages are visited and how often, to keep track of your shopping cart and for other purposes like personalizing the site. Cookies are a small piece of information stored by your internet browser to your computers’ hard drive. Your browser is usually set up to initially accept cookies. If you set your browser to reject cookies, the site will not be able to recognize your cart, your account, or any personalization. We do not and cannot use cookies to gather your confidential information that may be stored on your hard drive. Most web browsers have a function that allows you to delete existing cookies on your device or you can set your browser options to that your device does not receive or accept cookies. Doing this may interfere with your ability to use our Website.
Details on Our Use of Cookies and How to Opt Out of Advertising Cookies
Essential Cookies. Essential cookies make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies. We use Google Tag Manager on our Website to manage tags on our Website. It is not really a cookie, but it is essential to the functioning of our Website and cannot be opted out of. We use other cookies controlled by us to identify trusted web traffic and preserve your session across page requests.
Analytics Cookies. Analytics cookies help website owners to understand how visitors interact with their website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. We use Google Analytics to do this. You can opt-out Google Analytics by downloading and installing the browser plug-in from the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. We also use Bugsnag to detect crashes, and
Mouseflow to analyze how much time visitors are spending on each part of our Website.
Social. Facebook Connect is a single sign-on application which allows users to interact on other websites, including our Website, through their Facebook account.
Advertising Cookies. As explained above, marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites, for the purpose of displaying ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user and thereby more valuable for website publishers and third-party advertisers.
Retargeting and Remarketing. We may, in conjunction with third party marketing services, gather information from your visit to our Website for purposes of reminding you about our products in the future. This means that we may display advertisements to you about our products on other websites, such a Facebook, based on usage data collected during your visit to our Website. We use Google Dynamic Retargeting for this purpose. To opt out of seeing personalized ads via the Google platform, please visit: https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en.

Behavioral Advertising. When trackers are used to monitor your traffic across websites in order to discern your interests for the purpose of showing you ads from third party companies, this is behavioral advertising. We may allow service providers such as Facebook to track you when you visit our Website for the purpose of behavioral advertising– unless you are a California resident. You can opt out here: https://www.aboutads.info/choices.

If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 has provided personal information to us, please contact us, and we will make our best efforts to immediately delete that information from our databases.
External Websites
While we have carefully chosen the vendors with whom we work, especially those involved in the transmission of data on behalf of our business, we do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites, including those of affiliates, business partners, sponsors, advertisers, or other websites to which we may link from time to time. When visiting any third-party websites, you are responsible for reviewing the privacy policy and terms of use applicable to each website. They may be different than those that you see here.
How to Access Your Personal Information
If you have provided personal, billing or other voluntarily provided information, you may access, review and make changes to it by emailing us at privacy@luminaire.com. To manage your receipt of marketing and non-transactional communications, you may unsubscribe by clicking the “unsubscribe” link located on the bottom of any related email from us. Emails related to the purchase or delivery of orders are provided automatically – customers are not able to opt out of transactional emails. We will try to accommodate any requests related to the management of personal information in a timely manner. However, it is not always possible to completely remove or modify information in our databases (for example, if we have a legal obligation to keep it for certain timeframes).
