Gifts of Nature Privacy Policy

Gifts of Nature, Inc., a California corporation (“GON”), has created this Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) to disclose our information gathering and dissemination practices for this website (“Site”).  References in this Privacy Policy to “we,” “us” or “our” mean GON (and its successors and assigns) and references to “you” and “your” mean the user and visitor of our Site.

The Site acts as a venue to allow retail businesses who register with GON to submit orders for products produced by third-party suppliers that GON features on the Site (each, a “Supplier”), which GON collects and provides to the Suppliers (the “Services”).  You agree that you will (a) use this Site solely for business purposes to browse, solicit information, and submit orders for products for resale, and (b) not use this Site for personal or household purposes in any way.  You agree that by accessing the Site, you consent to the collection, transfer, manipulation, storage, disclosure and other uses of your information as described by this Privacy Policy and to be governed by our Terms and Conditions of Use.  IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH OUR PRIVACY POLICY OR TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SITE AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.

What Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

Business Information

You may, while using our Site, provide us with information that allows us to identify your business, including without limitation the name of your company, the company’s state of incorporation, business address, EIN, and date of incorporation, and the first and last name, email address, and phone number of the company contact (“identifying information”).  We may also collect certain information from users who are submitting orders to Suppliers through our Site. Such information may include without limitation: shipping address, billing address, the last four digits of the company’s credit card, an email address and phone number of a company contact (collectively, the “purchase information,” and together with identifying information, “business information”). Except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy, we may store and retain all business information provided by you in our data servers. We do not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from individual consumers or children under the age of 18.  If we obtain actual knowledge we have collected such personally identifiable information, that information will be immediately destroyed and/or deleted from our databases.

Cookies and Technical Information

We also collect information automatically using electronic tools. We may log the name of your Internet service provider, IP address, or use “cookie” technology to store your company’s preferences, record session information, display personalized content and advertising on your company’s electronic device, and to maintain session and preference information to improve the use of the Site.  A “cookie” is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s electronic device, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns.  Within your web browser, cookies placed by our Site can only be accessed by our Site; other websites you visit cannot access these cookies. You may set your web browser to decline our cookies; however, this may render portions of our Site unusable.  By continuing to navigate our Site without changing your cookie settings, you acknowledge and agree to GON’s use of cookies. To learn more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them, please visit https://www.allaboutcookies.org.

If you have an account and you log-on to this Site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When creating an account on our Site, you may opt-in to saving your company’s name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so you do not have to fill in your details again when you want to log-on to our Site.

We also allow cookies to be placed on our users’ electronic device by third parties for the purpose of website analytics. This allows a third party to collect data about the use of our Site; however, no personally identifiable information or business information is collected. We do not share the data that third parties collect with anyone besides the third party. We may use the data that is collected in the following ways:

  • to report, in aggregate, how our visitors find and use our Site;
  • to understand overall visitor behavior; and
  • to update and improve our Site.

As we adopt additional technology, we may also gather information through other means.

Log Files and Location Information 

We may use log files to track how the Site is being accessed and used. Log files track anonymous user information such as IP addresses, browser types, Internet service providers, referring and exit pages, date and time stamps, number of clicks to, from, and within the Site, and device information.  We may also use clear GIF Tracking Pixels to track user movement through our Site for aggregated Site traffic measuring.

We may obtain location information about your business from information you provide in your company’s account. With your consent, we may also determine location by using other information from your device, such as precise location information from GPS or information about wireless networks or cell towers near your electronic device. We may use and store information about your location to provide features and to improve and customize the Services, for example, for GON’s internal analytics and performance monitoring; localization, regional requirements, and policies for the Services; for local content, search results, and recommendations; for mapping services; and (using non-precise location information) marketing. If you have consented to share your precise device location details but would no longer like to continue sharing that information with us, you may revoke your consent to the sharing of that information through the settings on your electronic device. We will only share your geolocation details with third parties to provide you with the Services.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

During your use of our Site you may link to, or view as part of a frame on our page, certain content that is created or hosted by a third party.  Links on this Site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website. Third parties, including our advertisers, affiliates and other content providers accessible through our Site, may have their own privacy and data collection policies and practices.  We are not responsible for the actions, privacy, security or content of such third party websites and do not endorse such websites. If you are asked to provide information on one of these websites, we encourage you carefully to review their privacy policy before sharing your information.

 

Who We Share Your Data With

GON uses analytic programs for remarketing.

GON uses remarketing services to advertise on third party websites to previous visitors to our Site.  Remarketing involves tracking devices that have visited our Site to display ads for our services on other websites and/or search results pages. It could mean we advertise to previous visitors who have not completed a task on our Site, for example using the contact form to make an inquiry. Third-party vendors use cookies to serve ads based on someone’s past visits.

Our website analytics partners or features that collect data as described above may include, among others, Google Analytics, other analytics programs, and Google AdWords remarketing service. Use these links to learn how Google uses data it collects, to prevent Google Analytics from using data from your device, or to opt out of Google’ s interest-based ads.

GON shares your business information with Suppliers.

In connection with our Services, GON will facilitate the sharing of information between you and the Suppliers.  Such Suppliers will process your business information, including without limitation your shipping and payment information, under their own privacy policies. We may also share your business information with Suppliers to offer you certain products or promotions. Suppliers, not GON, are responsible for protecting business information under their control.  By submitting an inquiry or order for products through our Site, you are directing us to share your information in this way.  We make no guarantees or warranties regarding the privacy procedures of any Suppliers.

GON may share your business information for legal and safety purposes.

We may disclose your business information where we are legally required to do so to comply with applicable law, governmental requests, a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process, such as in response to a court order or a subpoena (including in response to public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements). We may also disclose your business information where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding potential violations of our policies, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person and illegal activities, or as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.

GON may share your business information in connection with a business reorganization.

We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.

How Long We Retain Your Data

We will store the business information that you provide when establishing your company’s account. GON will retain your business information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, for as long as your account is active (i.e., for the lifetime of your GON user account), as described in this Privacy Policy, or as needed to provide the Services to you. All users can see, edit, or delete their business information at any time. Site administrators can also see and edit that information.  If you no longer want GON to use your information to provide the Services to you, you may close your account. GON will retain and use your business information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.

We also retain log files for internal analysis purposes. These log files are generally retained for a brief period, except in cases where they are used for Site safety and security, to improve site functionality, or we are legally obligated to retain them for longer time periods.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this Site, you can request to receive an exported file of the business information we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. In certain circumstances, you can also request we erase any business information we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Protection of Certain Information, Communications and Opt Out 

GON discloses business information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (a) need to know such information to process it on GON’s behalf or to provide the Services, and (b) have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using the Site, you consent to transferring such information to them. GON will not rent or sell your business information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, GON discloses business information only as described in this Privacy Policy.

By submitting company contact information, you represent, warrant and agree that you are giving your express consent for us to contact your company, and you agree that we may communicate with the designated company contact via email, newsletters, telephone solicitations, and courtesy communications.  After you submit a request to be contacted, you may expect to receive a confirmation email or telephone call from us.  Such consent remains fully intact until you rescind such consent in writing as further described below.

If you are a registered user of the Site and have supplied an email address for a company contact, GON may occasionally send such contact an email to inform users of new features or technical issues of our Site (including, without limitation, changes to our software, for any reason involving security), solicit feedback, or update users regarding GON’s business and the products featured on our Site. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. GON takes reasonable measures to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of business information.

If your company does not want to receive communications from us in the future, please send us an email or write to us at the address listed at the end of this Privacy Policy and provide all information that was originally provided to us by your company.  Please allow approximately fourteen (14) business days to process such request. Your election to opt-out is only effective regarding future delivery of communications sent directly from us.

 

If, in the future, we decide to use business information for uses not previously disclosed in our Privacy Policy, you may prevent your business information from being used for purposes other than those for which it was originally collected by sending us an email or writing to us at the address listed at the end of this Privacy Policy.

Privacy Policy Changes

GON may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in GON’s sole discretion. GON encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. When we make changes, we will revise the “Last Updated Date” of this Privacy Policy.  Your continued use of this Site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.

Geographic Restrictions

We may limit the availability of the Site to any person or geographic area at any time.  If you choose to access the Site from outside the United States, you do so at your own risk.

THIS SITE IS INTENDED FOR UNITED STATES BUSINESSES ONLY. IF YOU ARE A USER ACCESSING THE SITE FROM ANY OTHER COUNTRY WITH LAWS OR REGULATIONS GOVERNING DATA COLLECTION, USE AND DISCLOSURE THAT DIFFER FROM THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THROUGH YOUR CONTINUED USE OF THE SITE, YOU ARE TRANSMITTING INFORMATION AND DATA TO THE UNITED STATES AND YOU CONSENT TO THAT TRANSMISSION. ADDITIONALLY, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOUR BUSINESS INFORMATION MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO AND PROCESSED IN COUNTRIES (INCLUDING THE UNITED STATES) WHERE LAWS REGARDING PROCESSING BUSINESS INFORMATION MAY BE LESS STRINGENT THAN IN YOUR COUNTRY. 

Do Not Track

Except as provided for in this Privacy Policy, GON does not track its customers over time and across third party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals. However, some third party websites do keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such websites, most web browsers (like Safari) allow you to set the DNT signal on your browser so third parties (particularly advertisers) know you do not want to be tracked.

Security

We take reasonable precautions to maintain the security and accuracy of the business information we collect including limiting the number of people with physical access to our database servers and employing electronic security systems and password protections that guard against unauthorized access.  Your account information is protected by a password. It is important that you protect against unauthorized access to your account and information by choosing your password carefully and by keeping your password and electronic device secure, such as by signing out after using the Services. We cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online, and you do so at your own risk.

GON’s Service.  The Site acts as a venue to allow retail businesses who register with GON (each, a “Customer”) to submit orders (each, an “Order”) for products produced by third-party suppliers that GON features on the Site (each, a “Supplier”).  GON collects Orders submitted by Customers and provides the Orders to Suppliers.  GON does not accept Orders or sell products directly to Customers.  GON is not involved in the transaction between any Customer and any Supplier even though we, with each Customer’s permission, collect certain information about a Customer (“Information”) and provide such Information to one or more Suppliers. Suppliers are the sellers of products and are solely responsible to you for the care, quality, and delivery of the products.  GON does not verify the quality or legality of the products offered by any Supplier for sale, the truth or accuracy of the representations regarding such products, and/or the ability of Suppliers to offer or sell such products, which is solely the responsibility of each Customer. We are not responsible in any way for the conduct of any Customer or Supplier.  We do not endorse or recommend any Suppliers or products.

Identity Verification; Account and Password.  Customer verification on the Internet is difficult and we cannot and do not confirm each user’s purported identity. You will choose your own username (“Account ID”) and confidential password. You will be exclusively responsible for the supervision, management, and control of your Account ID and password for the Site and you will ensure that you properly exit the Site at the end of each session.  You agree to (i) keep your password and Account ID secure and strictly confidential, providing it only to authorized users of your Account, (ii) instruct each person to whom you give your Account ID and password that he or she is not to disclose it to any unauthorized person, (iii) notify us immediately and select a new Account ID and password if you believe your password may have become known to an unauthorized person, and (iv) notify us immediately if you are contacted by anyone requesting your Account ID and password.
