1. What personal information is collected from me?

The types of personal information collected on these pages may include, but are not limited to, your name, email address, standard contact information including addresses and phone numbers, transactional information, and financial information such as credit card or bank account numbers. You also may provide additional information to us when you conduct a search on this Site, place an order for merchandise, complete a questionnaire or an entry form for sweepstakes or contests, and participate in forums and chat rooms or other community features. We may also ask you to voluntarily provide us with information regarding, for example, your personal or professional interests, demographics, experiences with the services we provide and contact preferences. Wherever the Canopy Club collects personal information, we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy on that page.

The Canopy Club may gather and collect any of the following: (1) IP addresses (the Internet address of a computer) to track a user’s session while the user remains anonymous, (2) computer and connection information such as browser type and version, operating system, and platform, (3) purchase history, (4) the full Uniform Resource Locator (URL) clickstream to, through, and from this Site, including date and time, (5) cookie number, and (6) Web pages and/or products you viewed or searched for. The Canopy Club analyzes this data for certain trends in statistics, such as which parts of this Site users visit and how long they spend there. In general, we do not link your IP addresses to anything personally identifiable to you. During some visits the Canopy Club may use software tools such as JavaScript to measure and collect session information, including page response times, download errors, page interaction information (such as scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs), and methods used to browse away from the page.

The Canopy Club gathers and stores certain types of information whenever you use this Site or the services made available hereon (the “Services”). For example, like many Web sites, we use “cookies,” and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses this Site. Various third party companies offer utilities that are designed to allow or help you visit and use Web sites anonymously; please note, however, that The Canopy Club may not be able to provide you with a personalized experience on this Site if you choose to utilize any such utilities.

The Canopy Club will not sell, rent or lease your personally identifiable information to others without your consent, except as provided in this Privacy Policy. In general, the information you provide will be used to support your customer relationship with the Canopy Club.

We want to help you quickly find information regarding the Services on this Site and alert you to specific offers, updated information, and other new products and Services that are available. Accordingly, we may send you direct mailings or contact you by telephone about our various products and Services or other products and services we feel may be of interest to you. If you do not want to receive such mailings, simply “opt-out” by the means provided for (if any) in the mailings or by contacting info@canopyclub.com.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Canopy Club does research on our users’ demographics, interests and behavior based on the information provided to us during your use of this Site.

The Canopy Club also may combine your information with information we collect or receive from other companies and sources (such as demographic data) to improve and personalize our services.
 
4. What does “opt-out” mean?

To “opt-out” means that you have notified the Canopy Club that we no longer have permission to use your information for a particular purpose. For example, when we send you information on a new product, you will be given the opportunity to “opt-out” of receiving such information in the future.
 
5. Who is collecting my information?

Information is collected on the Site by or on behalf of the Canopy Club. If data is being collected and/or maintained by any company other than the Canopy Club or an agent for the Canopy Club, you will be notified prior to the time of the data collection or transfer. If you do not want your data to be shared, you can choose not to allow the transfer by not using that particular Service or purchasing those particular goods.

Please be aware that advertisers that may have links on this Site may collect personal information about you through the use of cookies, JavaScript, Web beacons, and other technologies. The Canopy Club does not have any control over or access to such technologies that may be used by these advertisers, and the information practices of those Web sites linked to this Site either through advertisements or other hyperlinks are not covered by this Privacy Policy. The Canopy Club does not, however, provide any personally identifiable information about you to these advertisers.
 
6. With whom does the Canopy Club share my information?

The Canopy Club may share the personal data you provide or the information gathered by the Canopy Club to any party with your consent or, in any event, to Canopy Club subsidiaries, agents, contractors, and our business partners. The Canopy Club also may share information with the following groups: (a) affiliated business which the Canopy Club does not control but with which it engages in joint and co-branded offerings, (b) third-party service providers in order to facilitate the performance of only those functions which are assigned to them, such as website operation and maintenance, order fulfillment, data analysis, marketing assistance, provision of search results and links, credit card payment processing, and customer service, and (c) entities with which the Canopy Club may merge or which may acquire all or substantially all of the Canopy Club’s assets, as customer information likely will be one of the transferred assets.

In addition, the Canopy Club believes it is necessary to share information in order to (x) investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, and violations of the Terms of Service, (y) respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, and (z) establish or exercise our legal rights, or defend against legal claims, and as otherwise required by law. Except as provided above or in the event of a merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of the Canopy Club’s assets, we will not share any of your information with any third party without your permission.
 
7. How do I access, update, or delete my information?

You can request the individual information that the Canopy Club has collected about you, correct factual inaccuracies in your information, remove personal information from the Canopy Club’s databases and/or update your personal information here or by contacting info@canopyclub.com.
 
8. What else should I know about my privacy?

Third-party Internet Web sites and services accessible through this Site have separate privacy and data collection practices, independent of us. The Canopy Club has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions. Please be careful and responsible online. If you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. While we strive to protect your information, the Canopy Club cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information through the transmission process, and any transmission by you of information is done at your own risk.
 
9. Children

The Site is not intended for use by children. We will not knowingly collect any personal information submitted by visitors to the Site who are under the age of 13.
 
10. Security

The Canopy Club uses its best efforts to protect your personal information and, to that end, uses tools such as encryption, passwords, and physical security to protect your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, no website can be absolutely secure, and third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from this Site. Therefore, although the Canopy Club works very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain absolutely private.
 
11. Other legal notices

Any dispute over privacy is subject to this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, including limitations on damages and application of the law of the State of Kentucky.
