GrowVeg.com Privacy Policy
Security
This website takes every reasonable precaution to
protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information via the
website, their information is protected both online and off-line. Sensitive
information such as credit card details are not stored on our own servers but
passed directly to our secure payment provider. All of our users' information,
is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to
perform a specific job (for example, a customer service representative) are
granted access to personally identifiable information. The servers that store
personally identifiable information are in a secure environment, in a locked,
and professionally managed facility.
Third Parties Access to Personal Information
GrowVeg.com Ltd does not pass user-related
data on to any third party except where necessary for the fulfilment of our
business obligations and only where an equally strict privacy policy is in
effect. For example we pass credit card
information necessary for the fulfilment of subscriptions through to our
secure payment provider (e.g. Paypal) in order for them to process the money
transfer.
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to
preserve user privacy and keep your data from being passed on to other third
parties, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein
we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a
current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our
website.

administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad
demographic information for aggregate use

statement applies solely to information collected by this website.

If we decide to change our privacy policy,
we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the site, and other
