Privacy Policy...
Garden Connections Ltd is committed to protecting the privacy of those using its site. By ordering from us, you indicate that you agree to the terms and conditions of the company.
What personal information does Garden Connections Ltd collect?
The information we learn from shoppers helps us personalize and continually improve your shopping experience with Garden Connections Ltd. Here are the general types of information we gather:
Information You Give Us
We receive and store any information you provide to us when you complete an order, subscribe to our newsletters, or communicate with customer service by e-mail, or otherwise. Such information may include your name, address, email address, shopping interests and preferences, transaction history, and other personal data. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to participate in our special offers or take advantage of certain useful website features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as providing research reports, customizing future shopping and savings opportunities for you, improving our services, and communicating with you if you have authorized such communication.
Information Gathered Automatically
We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites, we use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses this website. Examples of the information we may collect and analyze include the Internet Protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet; computer and connection information such as browser type and version, operating system, and platform; the full Uniform Resource Locators (URL) clickstream to, through, and from our Web site and related services, including date and time; cookie number; products and brands you viewed or searched for; and areas of the site you visited. This information may be used to provide you with better shopping or savings opportunities through targeted dynamic displays on pages that you visit, or to conduct market research analysis.
Other Information
In order to improve and personalize our service (for example, providing special offers from our participating suppliers that we think might interest you), we may in the future also receive information about you from other sources.
What about 'cookies'?
Cookies are small files that we transfer to your computer's hard drive or your Web browser memory to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide convenience and other features to you, such as recognizing you as a Garden Connections Ltd customer or customizing form so that you don't need to provide the same information more than once.
The "help" portion of the toolbar on most Web browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, if you turn off your ability to receive and use cookies, you will have to re-enter information that would otherwise have been stored for you, and you may not be able to take full advantage of our services. Therefore, we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Does Garden Connections Ltd share the information about you?
Information about Garden Connections Ltd shoppers and other users is
an important part of our business, and we take steps to maintain the
privacy and security of such information against unauthorized access.
Garden Connections Ltd does not share any information collected
about the user with any other third parties.
How secure is information about you?
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. We also use a secure server hosting location, Firewall protection, controlled access and encryption technology to protect your data. While no system is completely foolproof, we take the security of your personal information very seriously, and our security measures are designed to protect that information in a responsible manner.
Can I Opt-Out of things you send?
As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide information, although that might prevent us from personalizing our service for you or prevent you from participating in a special offer or conshop or taking advantage of certain Garden Connections Ltd features.
By subscribing to the newsletter, you are agreeing to receive emails from us until you unsubscribe from those emails. No information will be sent to any user who does not subscribe to our mailing list.
From time to time, Garden Connections Ltd will send newsletters and other emails to members and others who have agreed to be contacted by Garden Connections Ltd. You can always choose not to receive email from Garden Connections Ltd. Most messages carry opt-out or unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of the email.
