Specifically, our web servers automatically recognize a visitor’s domain name (such as .com.. .edu, etc.), the web page from which a visitor enters our site, which pages a visitor visits on our site, and how much time a visitor spends on each page. This information does not reveal a visitor’s identity.

Personally Identifiable Information
Certified American Grown will not share or sell any personally identifiable information we gather to any company, organization, or person outside of the organization. From time to time, we may use customer information for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our privacy notice. If our information practices change at some time in the future we will contact you before we use your data for these new purposes to notify you of the policy change and to provide you with the ability to opt out of these new uses, we will post the policy changes to our web site to notify you of these changes and provide you with the ability to opt out of these new uses.

Certified American Grown takes every precaution to protect our user’s information. When users submit sensitive information via the web site, their information is protected both online and off-line.
When our registration form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as address, phone number, e-mail address, or credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry – SSL. While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our user’s information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment.
Certified American Grown employees and contractors are made aware of our security policies and practices. We periodically review security policies and practices so that updates may be made as necessary in order to ensure the protection of visitor information obtained via our web site.
