4. International Transfers

Growlity Inc. has offices in the United State of America and serving clients worldwide with Virtual Consulting and Coaching services to improve the business performance of the clients. As part of Growlity Inc. business operations exchanges of information may occur, including personal information, between Growlity Inc.’s international alliance of the service providers. As a result, we may transfer personal information outside the USA to countries whose privacy laws do not provide the same level of protection as the USA’s. Growlity Inc. may also use overseas facilities or contractors to process or back-up our information or to provide certain services to us. As a result, we or another Growlity Inc. international representative may transfer your personal information to our overseas professionals for these purposes.

However, any such transfer of information does not change any of our commitments to safeguard your privacy and the information remains subject to existing confidentiality obligations.

Privacy on our Websites and Applications

This policy also applies to any personal information we collect via our websites, including growlity.com and applications including mobile applications. In addition to the personal information you provide to us directly (such as where you make a request or complete a registration form), Growlity Inc. may also collect personal information from you via its applications and websites.

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by the websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. The use of cookies is now standard for most websites. If you are uncomfortable with the use of cookies, you can manage and control them through your browser, including removing cookies by deleting them from your ‘browser history’ (cache) when you leave the site.

Users may opt-out of Google’s use of cookies by visiting the Google advertising opt-out page. Alternatively, you can opt-out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative. We use cookies for the purposes of conducting re-marketing Campaigns. Google’s Display Network uses the DoubleClick Cookie. You can opt-out of DoubleClick cookies by visiting the DoubleClick opt-out page or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.

In order to properly manage our websites and applications, we may log certain statistics about the users of the facilities, for example, the users’ domains and browser types. None of this information specifically identifies an individual and it is used solely to ensure that our websites and applications present the best possible navigational experience for users.

As Growlity Inc. wants your user experience to be as informative and resourceful as possible, we provide a number of links to websites and embedded content operated by third parties that may also set cookies. Growlity Inc. is not responsible for the privacy practices or policies of those sites. We encourage you to review each website’s privacy policy, especially if you intend to disclose any personal information via that site. A link to another non-Growlity Inc. website is not an express or implied endorsement, promotion, or warranty of the products or services offered by or accessible through that site or advertised on that site.

If you are located in the European Economic Area, you need to be aware that we share your personal data within our group of companies which involves transferring your data outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

Countries outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) do not always offer the same levels of protection to your personal data, so European law has prohibited transfers of personal data outside of the EEA unless the transfer meets certain criteria.

Many of our third parties service providers are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA) so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we do our best to ensure a similar degree of security of data by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

• We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission; or
• Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts or codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe; or
• Where we use providers based in the United States, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between Europe and the US.

If none of the above safeguards is available, we may request your explicit consent to the specific transfer. You will have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.

Please email us at [email protected] if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

5. Data Security

Growlity Inc. has put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know such data. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

Growlity Inc. has put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

6. Data Retention

Growlity Inc. will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

By law, we have to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being customers for tax purposes.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see below for further information.

In some circumstances, we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
