PRIVACY POLICY
​
The following describes how Hilltop Garden Design (“HGD,” “me,” “I,” “we”) uses and disseminates information you provide us through www.hilltopgardendesign.com and its sub-domains and affiliated sites. If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact me at the information below. Please also review my full Terms and Conditions, which also govern your use of the website.
Collection of Personal Information. Unless expressly noted otherwise, I do not collect personally-identifiable information from users of my website. There is information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected, such as your IP address, browser type, domain name, access time and referring website addresses. I use this information in improving and analyzing the website and for troubleshooting purposes. I also utilize this information to monitor and improve services and to ensure that your use of the website is in compliance with my Terms of Use.
Cookies. A cookie is a data text file sent from a website to your browser, which may be stored within your system; it identifies the user and allows access to articles—removing the need to repeatedly log in. To the extent I use cookies, I can only access information from a cookie sent by the website, not other websites. I may use cookies to personalize your visit to my website. By tracking usage, I can best determine the needs of my customers and advertisers.
Use of Personal Information. If you do provide me with your personal information, I will not willingly share your information with companies outside our organization except as described in the Privacy Policy. I may disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe my services to potential advertisers, other third parties, our affiliate companies, and for other lawful purposes.
If you choose to subscribe, you may receive communications from me related to products and services that might interest you. While I believe these services may enhance your time spent at the website, you will at all times be able to opt out from receiving these communications by specifically choosing to do so via a link which will be provided within the email.
The information I gather from you may be used to gain a better understanding of my users and their usage pattern as a whole, for site administration and troubleshooting, to process transactions, and other matters you initiate, to identify preferences in content and advertising, to target editorial, advertising or other content (such as promotions, special offers, or other content) I think might be of interest to you, and to communicate changes and improvements to my website or any registration you have made.
I do not give away, sell, rent or lease users’ personally identifiable information to any merchant, advertiser or web publisher. Non-personally identifiable user information (such as usage pattern, browser type and your computer) may be shared with third party businesses or advertisers with which I have a business or contractual relationship. I reserve the right to disclose personal information when needed to comply with the law or a legal process, cooperate with investigations of purported unlawful activities, to identify persons violating the law, in connection with the sale of part or all of Hilltop Garden Design or its affiliates assets, or to enforce my Terms of Use.
Please keep in mind that if you disclose personally identifiable information in a public manner through the website, this information may be collected and used by others accessing those portions of the website. I do not monitor information you disclose on the website nor do I accept any liability associated with your voluntary disclosure of the same.
You are responsible for reviewing the privacy statements and policies of other websites you choose to link to or from the website, so that you may understand how those sites collect, use and store your information. I am not responsible for the privacy statements, policies or content of other websites. Websites containing co-branding (referencing our name and a third party’s name) contain content delivered by the third party and not me.
Age-Appropriate Use. The Hilltop Garden Design website is not intended for children under the age of 18. I do not collect or maintain information from anyone known to be under the age of 18, and no part of this website is designed to attract anyone under the age of 18. I do not sell products or services intended for purchase by children. If you are under 18, you may only use the website under the supervision of a parent or guardian. If I discover or are otherwise notified that we have received any such information from a child in violation of this policy, I will delete that information.
Notice of Privacy Rights to California Residents. California law requires that I provide you with a summary of your privacy rights under the California Online Privacy Protection Act (the “Act”) and the California Business and Professions Code. As required by the Act, I will provide you with the categories of personally identifiable information that I collect through this website and the categories of third party persons or entities with whom such personally identifiable information may be shared for direct marketing purposes at your request. California law requires me to inform you, at your request:
– the categories of personally identifiable information I collect and what third parties we share that information with;
– the names and addresses of those third parties; and
– examples of the products marketed by those companies.
The Act further requires me to allow you to control who we can and cannot share that information with. To obtain this information, please send a request by email or standard mail to the address found above.
When contacting me, please indicate your name, address, email address, and what personally identifiable information you do not want me to share with third parties. Please allow up to thirty days for a response.
Limitations. By using the website you agree that I am not responsible for:
– any disclosure of your personal information made by you to a third party through your use of the website;
