We do not share your personal information with unaffiliated third parties for direct marketing purposes, with the exception of the use of cookies with respect to our website.

Advertising and Analytics Services Provided by Others:

We may allow others to serve advertisements on our behalf across the Internet and to provide analytics services. These entities may use cookies, web beacons, and other technologies to collect information about your use of the Service and website, including your IP address, web browser, pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked, and conversion information. This information may be used by us and others to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, deliver advertising and content targeted to your interests on the Service and other websites, and better understand your online activity. For more information about interest-based ads, or to opt out of having your web browsing information used for behavioral advertising purposes, please visit www.aboutads.info/choices.

We use Google Analytics, which is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Service. This data is shared with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network.

You can opt-out of having your future activity on the Service available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. The add-on prevents Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js) from sharing information with Google Analytics about visits activity.

For more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy & Terms web page: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en

Links to Other Sites:

Our Service may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Credit Card Information:

We do not receive or store any credit card information. Any credit card information you provide for registration for an account with the Service or to make a purchase is collected and processed by a third-party processor and is subject to that third-party processor’s own privacy policy. You should read that third-party’s privacy policy before you provide any credit card information.

Security:

The security of your personal information is important to us. Green Seal takes reasonable measures to help protect information about you from loss, theft, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please understand, however, that no security system is impenetrable. Like other organizations, Green Seal cannot guarantee 100% the security or confidentiality of the information you provide to us. Consequently, while we endeavor to safeguard your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure, we do not warrant or guarantee the absolute security of any personal information you transmit to, from, or through the Service. In particular, email sent to or from the Service may not be secure, and you should therefore take special care in deciding what information you send to us via email. If you share your computer or mobile device or use a computer that is accessed by the general public, remember to sign off and close your browser window when you have finished your session. This will help to ensure that others cannot access your personally identifiable information. In the event of a breach of the confidentiality or security of your personally identifiable information, we will notify you as required by law, if reasonably possible and as reasonably necessary so that you can take appropriate protective steps. We may notify you under such circumstances using the e-mail address(es) we have on record for you or through alternative means, or as otherwise required by law. You should also take care with how you handle and disclose your personally identifiable information. Please refer to the Federal Trade Commission’s website at http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/ for information about how to protect yourself against identity theft. Please note that once you leave the Service during your browsing activity, whether independently or via links from the Service, the privacy policies of the site to which you migrate will apply. This Privacy Policy applies to your interactions with our Service only.

Your Choices:

Account Information.

Individuals with a registered account may correct or update the personal information within the Service by logging into their account. Others who may want to correct or update their personal information may do so by contacting us by email, mail, or phone using the contact information below. If we use any of your personal information in a manner that you believe is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy, please contact us so that we may correct such inconsistency. If you wish to deactivate your account, please contact us. We may continue, after deactivation, to store the limited information collected about you in connection with your account as required by law or for legitimate business purposes as stated in this Privacy Policy.

Cookies.

Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove or reject cookies, but note that doing so does not necessarily affect third-party flash cookies used in connection with our Service. For more information about disabling flash cookies, visit http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/security. Please note that if you choose to remove or reject cookies, this could affect the availability and functionality of the Site or Service – the Site or Service may not be accessible. In addition, many web browsers support Do Not Track technology. If you enable Do Not Track, Green Seal will not use information about your web viewing activities to tailor your online experience on other Service operated by Green Seal. Note, however, that our third-party advertising providers may continue to use information about your web viewing activities to tailor advertising to your interests across different aspects of the Service, even when you have Do Not Track enabled in your browser.

Children.

We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. We do not intend that our Service be used by children. We request that children under the age of 13 not use or access any functionality of the Service or submit any personal information through the Service. If we are advised in writing that we have inadvertently received or collected personal information from a child under 13 years of age, we will remove such information from our database.

Your California Privacy Rights.

In addition to the other rights described in this Privacy Policy, California law permits residents of California to request certain details about how their information is shared with third parties for direct marketing purposes. Under the law, a business must either provide this information or permit California residents to opt in to, or opt out of, this type of sharing. You have the right to submit a request to Green Seal and receive the following information within 30 days of its receipt of that request: (1) the types of personal information disclosed to third parties during the immediately preceding calendar year, (2) the names and addresses of third parties that received the personal information, and (3) if the nature of a third party’s business cannot be reasonably determined from the third party’s name or examples of its products or services. You are entitled to receive a copy of this information in a standardized format. Information provided will not be specific to you individually. All such requests must be in writing and can be submitted here. Green Seal permits California residents to opt out of having their information shared with third parties for direct marketing purposes. If you are a California resident, you may request this information once per calendar year by writing to us here. In addition, please see the section on “Cookies” above for information regarding our “Do Not Track” policies.
