This
Privacy Policy (“Policy”) explains the information collection, use, and sharing
practices of Amo Farm Sieberer Hatchery
(DOC Express) (“we,” “us,” and “our”).
Unless
otherwise stated, this Policy describes and governs the information collection,
use, and sharing practices of Amo Farm Sieberer Hatchery
(DOC Express) with respect to your
use of our website ([WEBSITE URL]) and the services (“Services”) we
provide and/or host on our servers.
Before
you use or submit any information through or in connection with the Services,
please carefully review this Privacy Policy. By using any part of the Services,
you understand that your information will be collected, used, and disclosed as
outlined in this Privacy Policy.
If
you do not agree to this privacy policy, please do not use our Services.
Amo
Farm Sieberer Hatchery (DOC Express) has designed this policy to be consistent with the
following principles:
We
collect information in multiple ways, including when you provide information
directly to us; when we passively collect information from you, such as from
your browser or device; and from third parties.
We
will collect any information you provide to us. We may collect information from
you in a variety of ways, such as when you: (a) create an online account, (b)
make a donation or purchase, (c) contact us or provide feedback, (d) subscribe
to our newsletter, or (e) subscribe to our newsletter. This information may
include but is not limited to your name, email address, phone number, mailing
address, payment information and your geographic location.
Device/Usage Information
We
may automatically collect certain information about the computer or devices
(including mobile devices or tablets) you use to access the Services. As
described further below, we may collect and analyze
(a) device information such as IP addresses, location information (by country
and city), unique device identifiers, IMEI and TCP/IP address, browser types,
browser language, operating system, mobile device carrier information, and (b)
information related to the ways in which you interact with the Services, such
as referring and exit web pages and URLs, platform type, the number of clicks,
domain names, landing pages, pages and content viewed and the order of those
pages, statistical information about the use of the Services, the amount of
time spent on particular pages, the date and time you used the Services, the
frequency of your use of the Services, error logs, and other similar
information. As described further below, we may use third-party analytics
providers and technologies, including cookies and similar tools, to assist in
collecting this information.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
We
also collect data about your use of the Services through the use of Internet
server logs and online tracking technologies, like cookies and/or tracking
pixels. A web server log is a file where website activity is stored. A cookie
is a small text file that is placed on your computer when you visit a website,
that enables us to: (a) recognize your computer; (b) store your preferences and
settings; (c) understand the web pages of the Services you have visited and the
referral sites that have led you to our Services; (d) enhance your user
experience by delivering content specific to
your inferred interests; (e) perform searches and analytics; and (f) assist
with security administrative functions. Tracking pixels (sometimes referred to
as web beacons or clear GIFs) are tiny electronic tags with a unique identifier
embedded in websites, online ads and/or email, and that are designed to provide
usage information like ad impressions or clicks, measure popularity of the
Services and associated advertising, and to access user cookies. We may also
use tracking technologies in our license buttons and/or icons that you can
embed on other sites/services to track the website addresses where they are
embedded, gauge user interaction with them, and determine the number of unique
viewers of them. If you receive email from us (such as the CC newsletter,
campaign updates, or other ongoing email communications from CC), we may use
certain analytics tools, such as clear GIFs, to capture data such as whether
you open our message, click on any links or banners our email contains, or
otherwise interact with what we send. This data allows us to gauge the
effectiveness of our communications and marketing campaigns. As we adopt
additional technologies, we may also gather additional information through
other methods.
Please
note that you can change your settings to notify you when a cookie is being set
or updated, or to block cookies altogether. Please consult the “Help” section
of your browser for more information. Please note that by blocking any or all
cookies, you may not have access to certain features or offerings of the Services.
For
more information about how we use cookies, please read our Cookie Policy.
the
extent permitted by law, we may also collect information from third parties,
including public sources, social media platforms, and marketing and market
research firms. Depending on the source, this information collected from third
parties could include name, contact information, demographic information,
information about an individual’s employer, information to verify identity or
trustworthiness, and information for other fraud or safety protection purposes.
We
may use the information we collect from and about you to:
Please
note that we may combine information that we collect from you and about you
(including automatically collected information) with information we obtain
about you from our affiliates and/or non-affiliated third parties, and use such
combined information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We
may aggregate and/or de-identify information collected through the Services. We
may use de-identified and/or aggregated data for any purpose, including without
limitation for research and marketing purposes.

behalf, including without limitation, event management, marketing, customer

belief that such disclosure is permitted by this Privacy Policy or reasonably

or other contracts with you, including investigation of potential violations
thereof; (c) enforce our Charter including the Code of Conduct and policies

safety of Amo Farm Sieberer Hatchery

public. This includes exchanging information with other companies and
organizations for fraud protection, and spam/malware prevention, and similar
purposes.
As
we continue to develop our business, we may engage in certain business
transactions, such as the transfer or sale of our assets. In such transactions,
(including in contemplation of such transactions, e.g., due diligence) your
information may be disclosed. If any of our assets are sold or transferred to a
third party, customer information (including your email address) would likely
be one of the transferred business assets.
We
may disclose your information with current or future affiliated companies.
We
may disclose your information to any third parties based on your consent to do
so.
We
may disclose de-identified and/or aggregated data for any purpose to third
parties, including advertisers, promotional partners, and/or others.
The
laws in some jurisdictions require companies to tell you about the legal ground
they rely on to use or disclose information that can be directly linked to or
used to identify you. To the extent those laws apply, our legal grounds for
processing such information are as follows:
Much
of our processing of information is to meet our contractual obligations to
provide services to our users.
In
many cases, we handle information on the ground that it furthers our legitimate
interests in ways that are not overridden by the interests or fundamental
rights and freedoms of the affected individuals, these include:
We
may also process information for the same legitimate interests of our users and
business partners.
We
may need to use and disclose information in certain ways to comply with our
legal obligations.

required by law, and in some other cases where legally permissible, we handle
information on the basis of consent. Where we handle your information on the
basis of consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent; in accordance
with applicable law.
We
may use third-party web analytics services (such as Google Analytics) on our
Services to collect and analyze the information
discussed above, and to engage in auditing, research, or reporting. The
information (including your IP address) collected by various analytics
technologies described in the “Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies” section
above will be disclosed to or collected directly by these service providers,
who use the information to evaluate your use of the Services, including by
noting the third-party website from which you arrive to our Site, analyzing usage trends, assisting with fraud prevention,
and providing certain features to you. To prevent Google Analytics from using
your information for analytics, you may install the official Google Analytics
Opt-out Browser Add-on.

consent you have provided. To exercise these rights, please email us at docexpress@rmandc.com with the nature of your request.
You also have the right to go directly to the relevant supervisory or legal
authority, but we encourage you to contact us so that we may resolve your

As
described above in the “When We Disclose Your Information” section, we may
share your information with trusted service providers or business partners in
countries other than your country of residence in accordance with applicable
law. This means that some of your information may be processed in countries
that may not offer the same level of protection as the privacy laws of your
jurisdiction. By providing us with your information, you acknowledge any such
transfer, storage or use.
If
we provide any information about you to any third parties information
processors located outside of the EEA, we will take appropriate measures to ensure
such companies protect your information adequately in accordance with this
Privacy Policy and other data protection laws to govern the transfers of such
data.
We
have implemented technical, physical, and organizational security measures to
protect against the loss, misuse, and/or alteration of your information. These
safeguards vary based on the sensitivity of the information that we collect and
store. However, we cannot and do not guarantee that these measures will prevent
every unauthorized attempt to access, use, or disclose your information since
despite our efforts, no Internet and/or other electronic transmissions can be
completely secure.
The
Services are intended for users over the age of 18 and are not directed at children
under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal
information (as defined by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) from
children under the age of 13, or personal data (as defined by the EU GDPR) from

like Facebook and Twitter), third-party plug-ins (e.g., the Facebook “like”
button and Twitter “follow” button), and other services. If you choose to use
these sites or features, you may disclose your information not just to those
third-parties, but also to their users and the public more generally depending
