Store Privacy Check: What 5 Stores Say About Your Box, Statement, and Tracking

Dame says orders ship in a plain brown box. International shipments may include a customs declaration.

The return address on the label is listed as "Fulfillment Centers/DCL Logistics."

Not stated. The FAQ, returns, terms and privacy pages loaded, but none of them says what name shows up on a card statement.

Nothing about Apple Pay, PayPal or Shop Pay. The FAQ says tracking comes by email. The privacy page says that if you enter a phone number at checkout, Dame may text you order notifications, including abandoned-cart reminders.

The privacy page says cookies, ad beacons and similar tools may be used by data partners to link your visits to your email address for marketing and direct mail (e.g. PostPilot). It also mentions ads on Facebook, Instagram and other ad platforms. It offers email/mail/SMS marketing opt-outs, but on the pages we read we did not find a 'Do Not Sell or Share' link, cookie settings, or any mention of Global Privacy Control.

Outer shipping materials have no branding. The FAQ says plain brown packaging or plain bubble envelopes, with nothing showing what is inside. Discretion is not guaranteed for international or APO orders.

The two pages disagree. The Discretion page says packages come from "Shipping Dept"; the FAQ says "Fulfillment Center." Both are generic names.

Charges are billed as "Queen City Boxes," but some banks may add "Unbound Babes" to the name. Paying with Zip shows "Zip.co* Unbound Babes." To keep the name off your statement, Unbound suggests buying from its Amazon shop.

If you pay with Apple Pay, Apple Wallet takes order details from the confirmation email and can show the product image on your lock screen. To stop this, go to iPhone Settings > Wallet & Apple Pay > Order Tracking and turn it off.

The Discretion page says data partners may link your site visits to your email or home address for marketing, with an opt-out at app.retention.com/optout. The privacy policy says it allows targeted ads from ad networks and web beacons. On the pages we read we did not find a 'Do Not Sell or Share' link or any mention of Global Privacy Control.

Orders ship from Atlanta, GA in plain brown boxes or plain heavy-duty envelopes. There are no brand markings on the back or sides.

The shipping label lists Lovehoney as 'LH Trading.' The return address is the Atlanta, GA warehouse and does not include the word 'Lovehoney.'

Not stated. The help home, plain-packaging, how-to-pay, security and terms pages loaded, but none says what name shows up on a card statement.

The how-to-pay page lists Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Amazon Pay, Klarna and PayPal Pay Later, but says nothing about notifications from these services. The help FAQ says tracking comes by email and delivery notices may come by SMS or email.

The privacy policy says advertising third parties may collect data on the site, which may count as a 'sale' or 'share' under some US state laws. You can opt out with a browser-level signal or Global Privacy Control, by rejecting cookies in the banner (in some states), or by emailing privacy@lovehoneygroup.com. The help FAQ separately says Lovehoney will 'ABSOLUTELY NOT' sell your data.

Orders ship in a plain brown box or a padded bubble mailer, with no Adam & Eve name or logo on the outside.

The FAQ says an alias is used on the return address label but does not name it. The discreet-shipping page says the 'from' field is left blank unless postal rules require a phone number and address. Its sample label shows only a phone number and 'PO BOX 8200, HILLSBOROUGH, NC 27278,' with no company name.

The card statement shows "Adam Mail." The name "Adam & Eve" never appears.

Nothing about Apple Pay or PayPal. The FAQ says order and shipping confirmation emails are always sent, even if you opt out of promotional email.

The privacy policy says the site uses targeting cookies, pixels and session-replay analytics, and that it may 'sell or share' personal info for cross-context behavioral advertising. You can opt out through the cookie banner, browser settings, or by contacting them. We did not see Global Privacy Control mentioned on the pages we read.

Some items ship in their own product packaging; their product page says "Shows what's inside" next to "Packaging." You can choose "Ship in Amazon Packaging" at checkout at no extra cost. Amazon says intimate items are excluded from its ship-without-extra-packaging program.

Not stated. None of the Amazon help or packaging pages read today says what sender name or return address appears on the shipping label.

Amazon's charge-descriptor table lists "AMZN Mktp US *A1B2C3D4E", "Amazon.com", "AMZN.COM/BILL" and similar names for Amazon.com purchases. Each descriptor includes a reference code.

By default, Alexa says or shows item titles in delivery notifications, except for gift orders. You can turn this off in the Alexa app: Settings > Notifications > Amazon Shopping > Say or Show Item Titles. In Amazon Family, gift orders and orders marked private are not shared.

Amazon says it is 'not in the business of selling' customer personal information. It does use cookies and advertising IDs for interest-based ads, and shares ad IDs with ad companies. You can opt out of personalized ads under 'Your Ads Privacy Choices.' Global Privacy Control is not mentioned on the pages read.
