Personally Identifiable Information and Non-Personally Identifiable Information.
HEMP FARMERS OF AMERICA (also referred to herein as “HEMP FARMERS”) may collect two different types of information, Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) and Non-Personally Identifiable Information (“Non-PII”). PII that we collect is information that identifies you as an individual – and includes your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit card information, billing address and shipping information. Non-PII is aggregated information, demographic information, IP addresses, user behavior data from web interaction metrics tools and other information that does not reveal your specific identity. PII and non-PII may be collected anytime you access or use a Hemp Farmers website. PII and non-PII may also be collected by Hemp Farmers during in-person discussions, telephone conversations, and electronic or other written communications. Hemp Farmers also collects information via cookies; blocking cookies may render you unable to access certain Hemp Farmers products, services, or websites.
Hemp Farmers uses PII by nature to fulfill orders it will receive. Hemp Farmers will track and store all end user data in addition to what affiliates or IBO’s are placing orders to conduct business within our framework. Hemp Farmers is released to fully utilize this and all data points collected as it sees fit to respond to your inquiries, provide you or your end users with services you have requested, keep parties informed of services Hemp Farmers thinks may be of interest to them, and otherwise personalize their experience with Hemp Farmers, and/or other reasons. Hemp Farmers does not sell or lease PII about you to others, though may in some cases be required or liable for so doing under the Privacy Shield Framework outlined below. Hemp Farmers will provide your email address to affiliates or users who refer you to us, or through whom you create a Hemp Farmers account. Hemp Farmers is hereby authorized to share your PII with our affiliates and third parties contracting with Hemp Farmers to provide services to you, including financial institutions, API integrations you have chosen, and other third-party software services that you have chosen to assist you with your sales if linked with any of our partnering software.
Hemp Farmers employees who design our databases and software, and those employees who provide you with customer service, along with our customer service software partners, also have access to PII as part of their job in providing services to you. Hemp Farmers may also share PII when required by law, or when you have expressly requested Hemp Farmers to do so. Hemp Farmers reserves the right to disclose and use your PII if Hemp Farmers believes it is necessary to: (a) respond to legal process, e.g., a subpoena; (b) respond to a law enforcement agency’s request; (c) enforce the Terms; or (d) protect the rights, privacy, safety, property, or operations of Hemp Farmers or third parties.
Because Non-PII does not personally identify you, Hemp Farmers reserves the right to use and disclose to third parties Non-PII for any purpose.
Hemp Farmers maintains reasonable physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to protect PII from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Hemp Farmers enforces its Privacy Policy via self-assessment.
Hemp Farmers reserves the right to change this privacy notice, which changes will become effective upon posting of the revised notice on https://Hemp Farmers.com/Privacy, or upon emailing of the changes to You at the email address you provided to Hemp Farmers, or as required by law.
