Privacy Policy Last Updated: June 27, 2007
Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us! At do-it-yourself-Herbs.com, we want to make your experience online not only satisfying but also safe.
We strive to offer our visitors the many advantages of Internet technology, and to provide an interactive and personalized experience. In order to do this, we sometimes gather certain types of information about our users. We believe you should fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information.
This privacy policy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.
Information We Gather
We may use Personally Identifiable Information (your name, e-mail address, street address, telephone number) subject to the terms of this privacy policy.
We will never sell, barter, or rent your email address to any unauthorized third party. Not ever. Period.
How We Gather Information from Users
How we collect and store information depends on
- the page you are visiting
- the activities in which you elect to participate
- and the services provided
For example:
- You may be asked to provide information
- when you register for access to certain portions of our site
- when you request certain features, such as a newsletter
- when you make a purchase
- You may provide information when you participate in
- sweepstakes and contests
- message boards and chat rooms
- other interactive areas of our site
Like most Web sites, do-it-yourself-Herbs.com also collects information automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to our visitors. For example, we may log the name of your Internet Service Provider or use cookie technology to recognize you and hold information from your visit.
Among other things, the cookie may store your user name and password, sparing you from having to re-enter that information each time you visit, or may control the number of times you encounter a particular advertisement while visiting our site.
As we adopt additional technology, we may also gather information through other means.
In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with information, for example by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies. But if you do, you may be unable to access certain portions of the site or may be asked to re-enter your user name and password. We also may not be able to customize the site’s features according to your preferences.
What We Do with the Information We Collect
Personally Identifiable Information
Like other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit and deliver more individualized content and advertising.
We may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on do-it-yourself-Herbs.com to communicate with you about:
- your registration and customization preferences
- our terms of service and privacy policy
- services and products offered by do-it-yourself-Herbs.com
- other topics we think you might find interesting.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by do-it-yourself-Herbs.com may also be used for other purposes, including but not limited to:
- site administration
- troubleshooting
- processing of e-commerce transactions
- administration of sweepstakes and contests
- other communications with you
Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation of our site (our Web hosting service for example) may access such information.
We will use your information only as permitted by law.
In addition, from time to time as we continue to develop our business, we may sell, buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses. In such transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets.
We may also disclose your information:
- in response to a court order
- at other times when we believe we are reasonably required to do so by law
- in connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us
- and/or to law enforcement authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or necessary
Please note: We may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.
We respect your privacy and do not share your information with anyone!
Aggregated Information
Information that does not personally identify you may be used in many ways.
For example, we may combine information about your usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance our site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or what features are most attractive).
Aggregated Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and business partners. Again, this information does not include any Personally Identifiable Information about you or
allow anyone to identify you individually.
Affiliated Sites, Linked Sites and Advertisements
do-it-yourself-Herbs.com expects its partners, advertisers and affiliates to respect the privacy of our users.

For example, during your visit to our site, you may link to, or view as part of a frame on a do-it-yourself-Herbs.com page, certain content that is actually created or hosted by a third
party.

While on our site, our advertisers, promotional partners or other third parties may use cookies or other technology to attempt to identify some of your preferences or retrieve information about you.
For example, some of our advertising is served by third parties and may include cookies that enable the advertiser to determine whether you have seen a particular advertisement before.
Other features available on our site may offer services operated by third parties and may use cookies or other technology to gather information.
do-it-yourself-Herbs.com does not control the use of this technology by third parties or the resulting information, and is not responsible for any actions or the privacy policies of such third parties.
You should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personally Identifiable Information on message boards or in chat areas, that information can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by third parties without our knowledge and
may result in unsolicited messages from other individuals or third parties.
Such activities are beyond the control of do-it-yourself-Herbs.com and this privacy policy.
