Your Consent

When you provide CWI Ginseng with your personal information, you consent to CWI Ginseng’ collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and as otherwise permitted by law.

Personal Information

"Personal information" means information about an identifiable individual that allows someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your mailing address, telephone number or email address.

How CWI Ginseng Collects Your Personal Information - You may be asked to voluntarily provide your personal information to CWI Ginseng anytime you are in contact with CWI Ginseng, including when you purchase products or services from CWI Ginseng through events, seminars, or our websites. In those circumstances you can choose not to provide certain requested personal information, but then you may not be able to purchase products or services or access or use certain features of CWI Ginseng’ websites.

For example, when you purchase products or services from CWI Ginseng (including at a retail pop-up, events, seminars, or through the CWI Ginseng website), when you create or manage an account with CWI Ginseng (including a user account for CWI Ginseng website), when you send us an email, when you register or subscribe for CWI Ginseng’s newsletters or promotions, or participate in CWI Ginseng’ promotions, sweepstakes, contests, or surveys, and when you contact CWI Ginseng’ Customer Service, CWI Ginseng (or its service provider) may collect a variety of your personal information, including your name, date of birth, credit card and payment information, mailing and shipping addresses, email address, phone numbers, and any other personal information you voluntarily provide. In addition, CWI Ginseng may retain your purchase history from CWI Ginseng’ websites.

You might also provide CWI Ginseng with the personal information (such as name, email, mailing, and shipping address) of other persons, such as family or friends for whom you purchase products or services (including gift cards) or to whom you ship purchases, or friends that you register for a refer-a-friend promotion or similar services, or friends that you share a product or article with from CWI Ginseng’ websites. Please ensure that you have the consent of other persons before you provide their personal information to CWI Ginseng.

How CWI Ginseng Uses Your Personal Information - CWI Ginseng uses your personal information for various purposes in connection with our relationship with you for the provision of our products and services, including: (a) to contact and correspond with you regarding your transactions and your use of CWI Ginseng’ products and services and to provide you with Customer Service, (b) to provide you with information regarding CWI Ginseng’ announcements, promotions, upcoming events, new products, and special features; (c) to facilitate transactions and process orders and payments for products and services purchased by you (including to remind you of un-purchased items left in your online shopping cart, to contact you regarding billing and payment discrepancies, and to validate receipts); (d) to process and respond to your specific suggestions, comments, inquiries and requests, and to otherwise administer CWI Ginseng’ relationship with you; (e) to personalize and improve your shopping experience; (f) to administer and facilitate your participation in sweepstakes, contests, and promotions; (g) to create and manage your account; and (h) to develop, deliver, and improve CWI Ginseng’ products, services and advertising.

CWI Ginseng may also develop a confidential profile for you, which will be used to provide services to you and facilitate your transactions with CWI Ginseng and your use of CWI Ginseng’ websites and services.

CWI Ginseng may combine your personal information collected through various sources, including information collected at CWI Ginseng’ events and through CWI Ginseng’ websites, and information obtained from other sources.

CWI Ginseng may use personal information to create non-personal information, as defined in the next section, and CWI Ginseng may then use, disclose, transfer, and retain the non-personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Non-Personal Information

CWI Ginseng also creates and collects "non-personal information" - information that is not associated with or linked to your personal information, including personal information that has been aggregated or otherwise anonymized so that it no longer relates to an identifiable individual.

CWI Ginseng may use, disclose, transfer and retain non-personal information for any purpose and in any manner whatsoever.

If non-personal information is combined with personal information, then the non-personal information will be treated as personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.

Cookies and Other Technologies

CWI Ginseng’ websites, online services, email messages, and advertisements may use "cookies" and other similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixel or gif tags, and action tags. Those technologies collect information that assists CWI Ginseng to improve products and services, advertising, customer communications and the shopping experience.

For example, CWI Ginseng may use information collected through cookies and similar technologies to recognize the user of CWI Ginseng’ websites, determine a user's general location to tailor the website content to that user's location, track use of the websites, offer personalized web page content, information and advertisements, and otherwise facilitate and improve the website experience. You may choose to decline or disable cookies if your web browser permits, but doing so may affect your ability to access or use certain features of CWI Ginseng’ websites.

CWI Ginseng may use web beacons, pixel or gif tags, and action tags to confirm that email messages have been delivered and opened. You may opt-out of receiving emails in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

The foregoing information may be collected directly by CWI Ginseng or by its third-party service providers.

Third Party Analytics and Similar Situations

CWI Ginseng uses certain third-party analytics and/or ad serving services on its websites. The providers of these services may independently collect, use, and disclose your IP address together with information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites that they service in accordance with their own privacy policies (and not this privacy policy). These services may use their own cookies and other data collection technologies. They may use this information to improve your experience, to gain a view of how people are using websites that they service so that improvements can be made, and as otherwise permitted in their privacy policies.

CWI Ginseng collects transactional information and browse behavior on our website. CWI Ginseng may use such information to offer you recommendations for products and services that are relevant to your interests. CWI Ginseng uses the services of trusted third parties to offer you meaningful recommendations during the online experience. CWI Ginseng shares IP address, unique ID number, and shop and browse behavior with the third-party service provider on an aggregate basis but does not share personal information for these purposes.

CWI Ginseng also works with trusted third parties that use tracking technologies to serve advertisements on our behalf across the Internet.

When you use certain aspects of CWI Ginseng’ websites or other services, or post information to other social networking sites (e.g., there may be links to CWI Ginseng’ Facebook or Twitter pages or you may be able to "like" a product on your Facebook account or "pin" a product on your Pinterest account), the personal information that you post or share in connection with these third party sites is visible to other persons and can be read, collected, used and disclosed by other persons, including to send unsolicited messages. As will be evident, in such a case, you will be leaving CWI Ginseng’ website and going to the third party's website. Any information provided to such third-party social networking sites and other sites is governed by their own privacy policies, which you may read on the applicable site. You are solely responsible for the personal information that you choose to post or share in those situations. CWI Ginseng has no control over, or responsibility or liability for, the use, disclosure, and retention of the personal information that you disclose in those situations, and the use, disclosure, and retention of the disclosed information is not subject to this Privacy Policy. Please be careful when disclosing your personal information in those situations.

California Users: Your California Privacy Rights

California's "Shine the Light" law, Civil Code section 1798.83, requires certain businesses to respond to requests from California customers asking about the businesses' practices related to disclosing personal information to third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes. Alternatively, such businesses may have in place a policy not to disclose personal information of customers to third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes if the customer has exercised an option to opt-out of such information sharing. CWI Ginseng has such a policy in place. The Section titled "Unsubscribing to Marketing Provided by Third Parties", outlines how you can opt-out of having your information shared for such purposes, in accordance with such laws. In addition to reviewing that Section, if you wish to find out about any rights you may have under California Civil Code section 1798.83, you may notify us in writing at Customer Service – 311 Walnut St. #608, Marathon City, WI 54448-0608, U.S.A. or contacting us at info@cwiginseng.com.
