6. What are cookies? How does AGE use cookies on its Web site?
A "cookie" is a small data file that Web sites often store on your computer's hard drive when you visit their sites. A cookie may contain information, such as a unique user ID that Web sites use to track the pages of the sites you have visited A cookie may also collect technical, personal information such as the type of Internet browser you are using, the types of computer operation system you are using, and the domain name of the Web site from which you linked to the Web site(s). An HTTP referrer is a tool that allows Web sites and servers to identify from where people are visiting for promotional or security purposes.
We may use cookies in connection with the shopping cart available on the site. We may have an HTTP referrer tool implemented on the Web site(s) which will identify how you arrived at the Web site(s). We do not otherwise track any personal information regarding your use of other Web sites.
You can deactivate cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you turn off cookies, though, you may hinder your online experience and you may be unable to use some features of the Web site(s).
In addition, in accordance with their respective Privacy Policies, Google and/or Facebook may independently employ cookies or other pieces of code such as Web beacons on our site through their respective analytics or advertising management system(s). A Web beacon allows a Web site to count users who have visited that page or to access certain cookies. To the extent used by Google, a Web beacon allows a Web site to count users who have visited that page or to access certain cookies. For information regarding any Google- and/or Facebook-related cookies, Web beacons, other unique identifiers and/or other coding, please consult their respective Privacy Policies and/or related policies.
7. California Do Not Track Notice.
Do Not Track ("DNT") is a mechanism for allowing Internet users to control the tracking of their online activities across Web sites. Currently, various browsers (including, but not limited to, Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari) offer a DNT option that relies on a technology known as a DNT header which sends a signal to Web sites visited by the browser user about the user's DNT preference. You can usually access your browser's DNT option in your browser's preferences. We do not track our clients over time and across third party Web sites to provide targeted advertising and therefore currently do not respond to Do Not Track ("DNT") signals. However, some third party sites do keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, your browser may allow you to set the DNT signal so third parties (particularly advertisers) know you do not want to be tracked.
8. How does AGE protect and use clients' personal information?
We are committed to protecting the security and integrity of our clients' personal information, and we use procedures and technology designed for this purpose. For example, we limit access to client personal information to those employees or independent contractors who have a business reason to know this information.
9. Is my personal information secure?
We believe your data must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. The third party vendors who operate the online store and shopping cart on our Web site(s) use procedural and technical safeguards to protect your personal information against loss or theft as well as unauthorized access and disclosure to protect your privacy, including encryption, firewalls and Secured Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology. SSL technology, an industry standard, is designed to prevent someone other than the operators of the Web site(s) from capturing and viewing your personal information. While our third party vendors employ many different security techniques to protect such data from unauthorized access, perfect security does not exist on the Internet, and AGE does not ensure or guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us on the Web site(s) or the accuracy of any information displayed on the Web site(s) or in connection with Google's advertising management systems of Google and/or Facebook. We do not accept liability for unintentional disclosure.
By using AGE's services or by providing personal information to us, you agree that we may communicate with you electronically regarding security, privacy, and administrative issues relating to your use of our Web site(s). If we learn of a security system's breach, we may attempt to notify you electronically by posting a notice on the Web site(s) or sending an e-mail to you. You may have a legal right to receive this notice in writing. To receive a free written notice of a security breach (or to withdraw your consent from receiving electronic notice), please notify us at hello@agequestrian.com or by using the online submission form available on our Web site(s).
10. What about links to other Web sites and services?
AGE's Web site may contain links to other sites beyond AGE's control. AGE is not responsible for the content or practices of any linked Web sites, and we provide these links solely for the convenience and information of visitors to our Web site(s). AGE does not control the privacy policies or practices of these third party Web sites. This Privacy Policy does not cover the collection of information by those other companies and/or Web sites. Although we encourage third parties to provide their own privacy policies, AGE is not responsible and shall not be liable for their activities, such as how they handle the information they collect online. You should review those policies before providing any personal information.
11. Updates to our Privacy Policy.
From time to time, we may use information, including personal information, for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our Privacy Policy. If our information practices change regarding personal information previously collected, we will take reasonable efforts to provide notice and obtain consent to any such uses as required by law.
We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time by posting the amended terms on the Web site(s). All amended terms shall automatically be effective immediately upon posting, and we will update the effective date provided below. If we make any changes to this Privacy Policy that we view to be material, we will notify you of those changes by posting them on our Web site(s) or by sending you an e-mail or other notification. Your continued use of the Web site(s) after any change to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such changes.
12. Governing Law; Limitation of Damages; Entire Agreement.
This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the State of California. Venue for any dispute arising under this Privacy Policy shall be in the courts in and for San Luis Obispo County, California. By your use of our site, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions contained in this Privacy Policy.
