Anonymity

We understand that sometimes part of the joy of sending flowers can be in giving them from ‘a secret admirer’.  Also, that often flowers are delivered with a ‘greeting/message card’. On such cards, we will only provide the specific information instructed by yourself, and hence no personal details will be included unless we are specifically instructed to.

If a recipient requests information about who sent them a gift, this information will not be provided without your express permission in writing. We will contact you advising you that the request has been made, however, we will not release that information until such time as we get approval from you to do so in writing. As such, all orders are considered to be anonymous unless you tell us otherwise.

After all, sending a gift should be a private affair!

How can I update/correct my details?

If you believe that the information you have provided us is incorrect, contact us at lsflowerdesign.com.au as soon as possible.
