Privacy Policy

How we collect, use, and protect your information at Mini Highland Cow Ranch.

Last updated: May 6, 2026

Information We Collect

When you contact us through our website, place a deposit, or sign up for ranch updates, we may collect:

  • Your name and email address
  • Phone number (if you choose to share it)
  • Shipping or billing address (only if you proceed with a purchase)
  • Anything you tell us in messages — acreage, fencing, animal experience, timeline, etc.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

How We Use It

  • To reply to your inquiries and questions
  • To process deposits and final payment for calves
  • To coordinate veterinary checks, paperwork, and shipping
  • To send occasional ranch updates (only if you opt in)

Who We Share It With

We never sell your information. We share it only with:

  • Our veterinarian, for required pre-shipping health certificates
  • Livestock transport partners, only if you choose ground or air shipping
  • Government agencies where legally required (e.g. USDA for shipping documentation)

How We Protect It

We store inquiry records on secure platforms with reasonable physical and digital safeguards. Payment processing is handled by trusted third parties (Zelle, CashApp, Apple Pay, your bank) — we never store card or account credentials ourselves.

Cookies

This website uses minimal cookies, primarily for basic functionality (loading fonts, managing form state). We do not use tracking or advertising cookies. If we add analytics in the future, we will update this policy and request consent where required by law.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you
  • Request correction or deletion
  • Object to or restrict certain processing
  • Withdraw consent at any time

For visitors in the European Union (GDPR), the United Kingdom, and Australia: you have these rights under your local laws. Email us and we’ll process any request within 30 days.

International Transfers

Because we ship calves and respond to inquiries internationally — including to Europe, Asia, and Australia — some information may be processed outside your home country. We process all data in line with applicable laws.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page with the date above.
