Alternative Growth Streams, Inc. (hereinafter “AGS”), respects the privacy of its membership and is providing this Privacy Policy to explain how AGS collects information from members and how AGS uses that information. Please read this policy carefully.
By accessing and/or using this Website, you consent and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth below. AGS reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time. If AGS changes this Privacy Policy, AGS will post any changes on this Website. Material changes to this Privacy Policy may also be communicated to you by email or regular mail. If you object to such changes, AGS will honor its prior policies as to any data previously collected.

1. Collection and Use of Information.
AGS may collect “Personally Identifiable Information” about you (for example, your name, address, telephone number, credit card information, etc.) in order to communicate with you or provide you with goods or services that you have requested. “Personally Identifiable Information” refers to information that you provide to AGS through the Internet that can be used to uniquely identify you. We may also send you email promotions and other information that may be of interest to you from AGS or from its approved partners.
AGS will not sell, transfer, or share any Personally Identifiable Information about you to any third-parties outside of AGS and its approved partners who agree to honor these privacy safeguards, except under circumstances as may be required by law or to protect legal rights.
AGS may collect, use, and disclose information that is not Personally Identifiable Information (for example, AGS may keep track of, use, or disclose aggregate statistics regarding the number of visitors to this Website and regarding other information that does not uniquely identify you). Typically, this data is gathered through the use of automated “cookies.” Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that a website transfers to an individual’s hard drive for record-keeping purposes to track site and user activity. The use of cookies is an industry standard, used by most major websites. By showing how and when visitors use the Website on an aggregate basis, cookies help AGS better determine which areas of the Website are popular or useful and which areas are not. Many improvements and updates to the Website are based on such data as total number of visitors and pages viewed. In addition, AGS may also solicit your feedback in online surveys that are optional.
AGS employs some vendors to perform functions on behalf of AGS. Examples of such functions may include: fulfilling orders, delivering packages, email, administrative functions, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. These vendors employed by AGS are under a strict contractual obligation to use confidential data only for those purposes for which they are hired. Except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy, as amended from time to time, AGS maintains full rights to any information collected on this Website and may freely collect and use such information, unless prohibited by applicable law. In the event of a change in control of AGS or a sale of its assets, any Personally Identifiable Information or other information owned by AGS may be transferred to such successor, but only if the successor agrees to remain bound by this Privacy Policy.
2. Children.
This Website is intended for use by adults and minors over the age of 13. AGS does not knowingly collect or use information from minors under the age of 13.
3. Privacy Practices of Third-Parties and Advertisers.
This Website may contain advertisements and links to other sites. AGS is not responsible for the content or privacy policies or practices of any advertisers or linked sites or for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-parties. To the extent that you disclose Personally Identifiable Information to any advertisers, linked sites, or other third-parties, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information; and AGS encourages you to review their privacy policies before disclosing Personally Identifiable Information to them.
4. Access or Corrections to Your Information.
If you identify any inaccuracy in your Personally Identifiable Information, or if you need to make a change or would like to verify such information, please contact AGS so that it may update its records. AGS will use commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate all such requests.
AGS contact information is set forth in section 6 below.
5. Security.
AGS uses technical and organizational security measures in order to protect the data AGS has under its control against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, or destruction or against access by unauthorized persons. Nevertheless, your confidential use of this Website cannot be guaranteed by AGS. AGS shall not be responsible or liable to you for any harm that you or any person may suffer as a result of breach of confidentiality in respect to your use of this Website or any information you transmit to this Website; and you hereby acknowledge and agree that AGS shall not have any such responsibility or liability to you.
