Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 18, 2001.
Garst Seed Company is committed to protecting your privacy. You can
navigate most sections of the site without providing any information about
yourself. Sometimes, though, we do need information to provide you with
services you request. This privacy policy explains data collection and
use in those situations. Please read the complete privacy policy.
Collecting your Personal Information
We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you
(personal information) or allows us to contact you. Generally, this information
is requested when you are asked to register before entering a contest, ordering
newsletters or seed guides, or joining a limited-access site. Personal
information collected by Garst Seed Company is generally limited to name,
address, e-mail address, phone number, city, state, or country, but may also
include other information when needed to provide something you requested.
Use of your Personal Information
We use your personal information to make the site easier for you to use, to help
you quickly find services and information, to help us create and deliver
content most relevant to you, and to notify you of announcements, special
offers, updated information, and other new services from Garst Seed
Company. We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services
on our behalf, including answering customer questions about products or
services, sending postal mail and processing event registration and
fulfillment. We will only provide those companies the information they need to
deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for
any other purpose.
Garst Seed Company will disclose your personal information, without notice,
only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action
is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal
process served on Garst Seed Company or the site; (b) protect and defend the
rights or property of Garst Seed Company and its web sites, and, (c) act in
urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Garst Seed
Company, its web sites, or the public.
Control of your Personal Information
When you register, or otherwise give us personal information, Garst Seed Company
will not share that information with third parties without your permission,
other than for the limited exceptions already listed. It will only be used for
the purposes stated above.
Security of your Personal Information
Garst Seed Company strictly protects the security of your personal information
and honors your choices for its intended use. We carefully protect your data
from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or
destruction.
Your personal information is never shared outside the company without your
permission, except under conditions explained above. Inside the company, data
is stored in password-controlled servers with limited access.

Garst Seed Company will occasionally update this privacy statement. When we do,
we will also revise the "last updated" date at the top of the privacy
policy.
