INFORMATION COLLECTION
We collect information from you directly, automatically when you visit the Sites, and sometimes from third parties. Some of this information may be considered “personal information” under various applicable laws. We consider information that identifies you as a specific, identified individual to be personal information (such as contact information), and we treat additional information, including IP addresses and cookie identifiers, as “personal information” where required by applicable law. And, if we combine information we consider to be non-personal with personal information, we will treat that combined information as personal information under this Privacy Policy and as required by law. Note that we may de-identify personal information so that it is non-personal, such as aggregating or converting it to a code, sometimes using a function commonly known as “hash”. We will treat de-identified information as non-personal to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law.
The Sites are for general audiences and are not intended for use by anyone younger than the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals younger than age 18.
Information You Provide Directly to GMS
We may ask you to provide information directly when you interact with us, such as when you sign up for our marketing emails, including contact information (such as your full name, email address, street address, and telephone number and other information, such as demographic information (for example, your gender, birth day and month, or similar information) and information about your preferences and interests. The Sites may also allow you to purchase products directly from us, in which case we may ask you to provide payment information (such as credit and debit card number and other associated card information), as well as shipping and billing information (which may be processed by the third party provider that runs our online store, or by other third party payment processors, depending on your preferred payment method at checkout).
User Content Submissions
The Sites may provide you the opportunity to participate in posting content publicly, such as reviews or in connection with a sweepstakes or to submit or post photographs, videos, questions, reviews, comments, suggestions, or other content (collectively, “User Content”).
Note that anything you choose to submit or publicly post to the Sites may be public - others will have access to your User Content and may share it with third parties. If you choose to voluntarily disclose personal information, that information may be considered public information and the protections of this Privacy Policy will not apply.
Any User Content you submit is subject to our Terms of Use, and may be used by GMS in whole or in part for its business and marketing purposes (including in connection with advertising, publicity, and promotional activities) and may be published online or offline (including, without limitation, on the Sites or any format currently existing or later developed).
Information Collected Automatically
In addition to any personal information or other information that you choose to submit to the Sites, we and our third-party business partners (including any third party service providers or third party content, advertising, and analytics providers) may use a variety of technologies that automatically or passively collect certain information about your use of the Sites whenever you visit or interact with the Sites (“USAGE INFORMATION“). Usage Information may include the browser and operating system you are using, the URL or advertisement that referred you to our Sites, the search terms you entered into a search engine that lead you to our Sites (if applicable), all of the areas within our Sites that you visit, and the time of day you visited the Sites, among other information. We may use Usage Information for a variety of purposes, including enhancing or otherwise improving the Sites and our products and services. In addition, we automatically collect your IP address or other unique identifier (“DEVICE IDENTIFIER”) for any computer, mobile phone or other device you may use to access the Sites. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your device used to access the Sites, and our servers identify your device by its Device Identifier. In some cases, GMS may infer your device location based on your IP address or similar information.
The methods used to collect Usage Information may include the following:
COOKIES AND LOG FILES. A cookie is a data file placed on your computer or other device when it is used to visit the Sites or otherwise access our online content. Cookies may be used for many purposes, including, without limitation, remembering you and your preferences, tracking your visits to our web pages, and facilitating your check-out and purchases. We use both session and persistent cookies (which remains on your computer after the browser has been closed).
You may set up your computer to reject cookies by the privacy settings for your web browser although, in that case, you may not be able to use some of the features on our Sites. For further information on cookies, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
Certain web browsers and browser add-ons, such as Adobe Flash, may provide additional local data storage mechanisms. For example, a Flash cookie is a data file placed on a device via the Adobe Flash plug-in that may be built into or downloaded by you onto your device. Flash cookies may be used for various purposes, including, without limitation, enabling a Flash feature and remembering your preferences. Most browsers provide you with the ability to disable or decline cookies and local storage. You will need to check your browser’s settings for further information. For more information about Flash and the privacy choices Adobe offers, visit http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html.
WEB BEACONS. We may use web beacons (small graphic images or other web programming code, also known as “1×1 GIFs” or “clear GIFs” or “pixel tags”) and similar technologies on our Sites and within our communications to you. Web beacons can recognize certain types of information on your computer such as cookies, the time and date a page is viewed, and a description of the page where the web beacon is placed. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including, without limitation, to count visitors to the Sites, to monitor how users navigate the Sites, to count how many e-mails that were sent were actually opened or to count how many particular articles or links were actually viewed and to improve your experience on the Sites, including to provide you with content customized to your interests. Our web beacons may collect some contact information (for example, the email address associated with an email message that contains a web beacon).
EMBEDDED SCRIPTS. An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Sites, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your device from our web server or a third party service provider, is active only while you are connected to the Sites, and is deactivated or deleted thereafter.
In addition, we may use a variety of other technologies that collect Usage Information and similar information for security and fraud detection purposes and to enforce our intellectual property rights.
Social and Platform Integration
Functionality on the Sites may permit interactions between the Sites and third-party interactive or social services (“Social Networking Features”). Examples of Social Networking Features include enabling you to “like” or review a product on our Sites or to “like” or “share” our page or post on our page on a third-party service; to automatically or selectively show your social media posts on the Sites; and to otherwise connect the Sites to a third-party service. If you choose to share content or to otherwise post information through the Sites to a third-party service, or vice versa, that information may be publicly displayed. Similarly, if you post information on a third-party service that references us (for example, by using a hashtag associated with us in your post), your post may be published on the Sites or otherwise in accordance with the terms of that third party.
Also, both we and the third party may have access to certain information about you and your use of the Sites and the third-party service. These third-party social networking companies may collect information about your visit to our Sites through the Social Networking Features we have integrated into the Sites. Note that through the Social Networking Features, these third party social networking companies may be able to collect certain information about your visits to the Sites regardless of whether or not you affirmatively interact with the Social Networking Feature and whether or not you are logged into (or have) an account with the social networking company.
In addition, we may receive information about you if other users of a third-party service give us access to their profiles and you are one of their “connections” or information about you is otherwise accessible through your profile or similar page on a social networking or other third-party service.
If you submit User Content or use Social Networking Features, including posting on our page within a third party service, we may publish that information or content online or offline, including in connection with our advertising, marketing, publicity, and promotional activities.
The information we collect in connection with Social Networking Features is subject to this Privacy Policy. The information collected and stored by the third party remains subject to the third party’s privacy practices, including whether the third party continues to share information with us, the types of information shared, and your choices with regard to what is visible to others on that third-party service.
Information We Receive from Third Parties
We may receive information about you from other third parties. For example, we may partner with a third party for a sweepstakes or promotion, and your information may be shared in connection with your entry. We may also work with third party data providers to receive more information about our customers, such as contact or demographic information in order to provide you with information, services, or products you have requested, to tailor content, to offer you opportunities to purchase products that we believe may be of interest to you, and for other purposes.
HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION
GMS may use information it collects, including Personal Information and Usage Information, to: (1) allow you to participate in features we offer and to provide related customer service; (2) to process transactions and send you confirmations and receipts; (3) to process account registration, such as by verifying your email address; (4) tailor and target content, recommendations, advertisements, and offers we display to you , both on the Sites and elsewhere online; (5) send you marketing communications; (6) understand how you use our products and services, to improve the Sites, our products, and services, and for other internal business purposes; (7) contact you with regard to your use of GMS products and services, the Sites, and, in our discretion, changes to the Sites’ policies; (8) recognize you across the Sites and devices; (9) operate and protect our Sites from errors, misuse of the Sites, fraud, any criminal activity, and other illegal activities or activities that violate our terms and policies, detect and troubleshoot problems, resolve disputes, and enforce applicable agreements and policies; or (10) as disclosed at the time you provide your information or otherwise with your consent.
HOW WE MAY SHARE THE INFORMATION COLLECTED
GMS may share non-personal information, such as aggregate user statistics, hashed or otherwise de-identified information, and Usage Information, with third parties. However, GMS does not share your personal information with unaffiliated third parties for their marketing purposes without your consent (which may consist of offering you the opportunity to either opt-in or opt-out of such sharing). We may share the information we have collected about you as disclosed at the time you provide us with information or with your consent, and as described in this Privacy Policy, including:
WHEN YOU CONSENT TO SHARING OR REQUEST THAT WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION
The Sites may contain registration forms or other features that provide you the ability to opt-in or opt-out of sharing information about you with one or more third parties (for example, in order for a third party to send you special offers or coupons). If you agree at that time to have your personal information shared, your personal information will be disclosed to that third party (or parties) and will be subject to the privacy policy and practices of that third party. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of third parties, and, if you later decide that you no longer want to receive communications from a third party, you will need to contact that third party directly. You also may request, sometimes through your use of social media or other interactive feature, a widget or third party application, that we share information about you or your use of the Sites with a third party, and we will typically do so under those circumstances.
THIRD PARTIES PROVIDING SERVICES ON OUR BEHALF
We may work with third party organizations or individuals to perform services on our or your behalf including processing transactions and fulfilling orders, providing customer service, sending communications, providing marketing assistance and data processing or enhancement, website usage analytics, document management, office services, or other administrative services. We may provide third parties with access to user information in order for them to perform certain services for you or on behalf of GMS.
ADMINISTRATIVE AND LEGAL REASONS
We may transfer and disclose user information to third parties: (i) in the event we are required to respond to subpoenas or other legal process or if in our opinion such disclosure is required by law; (ii) at the request of governmental authorities or law enforcement conducting an investigation or otherwise to cooperate on an investigation on public safety or into claims in intellectual property infringement; (iii) to fulfill your requests; (iv) to protect the integrity of the Sites; (v) to protect and/or defend the Terms of Use or other policies applicable to the Sites or to protect the personal safety, rights, property or security of GMS or any individual, including for fraud prevention; (vi) in an emergency, to protect the health and safety of our users or the general public. We may also use Device Identifiers, including IP addresses, to identify users, and may do so in cooperation with copyright owners, Internet service providers, wireless service providers or law enforcement agencies in our discretion.
BUSINESS TRANSFERS
GMS also reserves the right to disclose and transfer all information related to the Sites: (i) to a subsequent owner, co-owner or operator of the Sites or one of our databases; or (ii) in connection with a corporate merger or joint venture, acquisition, consolidation, restructuring, bankruptcy, the sale of all or a portion of ownership interests, assets, or both, or other company change, including, without limitation, during the course of any due diligence process. By providing your personal information, you agree that we may transfer such information to the acquiring entity.
SWEEPSTAKES, CONTESTS AND PROMOTIONS
We may offer sweepstakes, contests, and other promotions (“Promotion”) that may require registration. By participating in a Promotion, you are agreeing to the terms, conditions or official rules that govern that Promotion, which may contain specific requirements of you, including, except where prohibited by law, allowing the sponsor(s) of the promotion to use your name, voice, likeness or other indicia of persona in advertising or marketing materials. If you choose to enter a Promotion, personal information may be disclosed to third parties (including, without limitation, a co-sponsor) or the public in connection with the administration of such Promotion, including, without limitation, in connection with winner selection, prize fulfillment, and as required by law or permitted by the promotion’s official rules, such as on a winners list.
THIRD PARTY ANALYTICS PROVIDERS, AD SERVERS AND SIMILAR THIRD PARTIES
We work with network advertisers, ad agencies, analytics providers, and other advertising partners to serve GMS advertisements online, on our Sites and elsewhere online. In connection with serving content and providing analytics and advertising services, third parties may collect certain information about your visits to this or other web sites, and we may receive information regarding the use of the Sites and the effectiveness of our advertisements. These third parties may set and access their own tracking technologies on your device (including cookies and web beacons) and may otherwise collect or have access to information about Usage Information, including your visits to and activity on the Sites as well as other web sites or online services. Some of these parties may collect personal information from you over time when you visit the Sites or other websites and services. Cookies and web beacons used by us and on the Sites, including those set by third party network advertisers, may be used to, among other things, target advertisements, prevent you from seeing the same advertisements too many times and to conduct research regarding the usefulness of certain advertisements to you. We may also share information, typically information that is non-personal, Usage Information, aggregated or de-identified or hashed information with third party advertising companies for the purpose of serving you with relevant advertising on and off the Sites, and to allow others to do so.
Your Advertising Choices
While we may use a variety of companies to perform advertising and analytics services, some of these companies are members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) or the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. You may want to visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp [Link], which provides information regarding targeted advertising and the “opt-out” procedures of NAI members. You may also want to visit or http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ [Link], which provides information regarding targeted advertising and offers an “opt-out” by participating companies in the DAA Self-Regulatory Program. You may also learn more and make choices about interest-based advertisements from participating third parties at the Canadian DAA online choice page at http://youradchoices.ca/choices [Link]. If you are a California resident, please see our “California Privacy Notice” [Link to section] for more information about your rights.
We may use Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about use of the Sites and report on activities and trends. This service may also collect information regarding the use of other websites, apps, and online resources. You can learn about Google’s practices by going to www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/ [Link] and opt out of them by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout [Link].
Please note opting out through these mechanisms does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads while online.
YOUR MARKETING CHOICES AND UPDATING YOUR ACCOUNT
You may opt out of receiving marketing e-mails from GMS by following the opt-out instructions provided to you in those e-mails.
Please note that we reserve the right to send you certain communications relating to your use of the Sites (for example, policy updates, service announcements, or communications relating to your use of the Sites) and these administrative or transactional account messages may be unaffected if you opt-out from marketing communications. You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of the information you submit to us.
You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of information you submit to us, such as your contact information. You may update the information you have provided to us by logging into the “Account” setting or similar page on our Sites. GMS will make good faith efforts to make requested changes in our then active databases as soon as reasonably practicable. Note, however, that information may persist internally for administrative purposes and that residual data may remain on backup media or for other reasons.
If you sign up to receive SMS or MMS messages that may be offered through the Sites, you may unsubscribe from any text messages received by replying “STOP.”
We may, with your permission, send push notifications to your device through a mobile application. You may opt-out of receiving these types of messages at any time by turning push notifications off in your device settings.
HOW WE RESPOND TO DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS
Note that your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to websites and online services you visit. There is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context. Like many websites and online services, GMS currently does not alter its practices when it receives a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser except as specifically required by law. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
SECURITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
GMS takes commercially reasonable steps to help protect and secure personal information. However, please remember that no data storage or data transmission over the Internet, or by other means, can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Thus, while we strive to protect your personal data, GMS cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. Therefore, you understand, acknowledge, and agree that you transmit certain personal information to the Sites at your own risk.
THIRD PARTY CONTENT, LINKS TO OTHER SITES, AND GMS CONTENT FOUND OUTSIDE OF THE SITES
Third parties may host or serve certain content on the Sites. The Sites may also contain links to third party web sites or features that GMS does not control. This includes links from advertisers, sponsors and partners that may use our logo(s) as part of a co-branding agreement, including third parties who may be selling GMS products. Third parties whose content appears on the Sites may collect information about you through the use of their own cookies and web beacons, may independently collect or solicit personal information, and may have the ability to track your use of their sites and services. Likewise, GMS widgets or other GMS content may be included on third parties’ web pages and web sites that are not associated with GMS and over which we have no control. GMS may collect Usage Information through GMS content appearing on third-party sites.
GMS is not responsible for the privacy practices employed by any third party, and our hosting of third party content, linking to third party websites, or the appearance of GMS content on third party websites does not constitute sponsorship or endorsement of the content or business practices of those third parties.
JURISDICTIONS AND CONSENT TO TRANSFER OF DATA
GMS is a United States company and we operate the Sites from the United States. If you are located outside the United States, please be aware that information we collect will be transferred to and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions. By using the Sites, or providing us with any information, you fully understand and unambiguously consent to this transfer, processing and storage of your information in the United States and other jurisdictions where the privacy laws may not be as comprehensive as those in the country where you reside and/or are a citizen. In certain circumstances, your personal information may also be subject to access by and disclosure to law enforcement agencies under the applicable foreign legislation.
CHANGES TO OUR POLICY
To the extent allowed by applicable law, GMS may update or supplement this Privacy Policy at any time and any changes will be effective upon posting, unless otherwise indicated. We may also notify you in other ways, such as by email, in our discretion. Your continued use of the Sites after the effective date of the revised Privacy Policy (or other act as specified in the revised Privacy Policy) will constitute your consent to those changes to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law. In the event that there are material changes to the way we treat previously collected personal information, we will provide notice and obtain your consent (opt-in or opt-out), as required.
CONTACT INFORMATION
If you have questions or comments about our privacy policy or our practices, you may contact us by mail at 70 Eastgate Dr. Danville, IL 61834.

The written permission must state your full legal name, the full legal name of the individual who is the subject of the request, and needs to be clear about the permission granted. Alternatively, you may submit a copy of a power of attorney under Probate Code sections 4000-4465. In either case, please also indicate in your email the nature of your request. The consumer’s identity, in addition to your own, will need to be independently verified in order for us to be able to fulfill your request.

You may want to visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp, which provides information regarding targeted advertising and the "opt-out" procedures of NAI members. You may also want to visit or http://www.aboutads.info/choices/, which provides information regarding targeted advertising and offers an "opt-out" by participating companies in the DAA Self-Regulatory Program.

- 2. CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS – YOUR CA PRIVACY RIGHTS
Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1798.83, residents of the State of California have the right to request from companies conducting business in California certain information relating to third parties to which the company has disclosed certain categories of personal information during the preceding year for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Alternatively, the law provides that a company may comply, as GMS does, by disclosing in its privacy policy that it provides consumers choice (opt-out or opt-in) regarding sharing personal information with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes, and information on how to exercise that choice. As stated below in this Privacy Policy, GMS provides you choice prior to sharing your personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If you do not opt-in or if you opt-out at the time GMS offers that choice, GMS does not share your information with that identified third party for its direct marketing purposes.
If you are a California resident and you have questions about our practices with respect to sharing information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes and your ability to exercise choice, please write to us at the following mailing address: 70 Eastgate Dr. Danville, IL 61834. You must put the statement “Your California Privacy Rights” in the subject field of your letter or include it in your writing if you choose to write to us at the designated mailing address. You must include your name, street address, city, state, and zip code. We are not responsible for notices that are not labeled or sent properly, or do not have complete information.
NOTICE TO NEVADA RESIDENTS
GMS does not currently sell your covered information as those terms are defined under applicable Nevada law. However, you may still submit an opt-out request and we will honor that request as required by Nevada law if GMS were to engage in such a sale in the future. If you are a Nevada resident and would like to opt-out of future sales of your information, you must submit your request to help@greenhousemegastore.com. Your request must include your full name, street address, city, state, zip code, and an email address so that we are able to contact you if needed regarding this request. We are not responsible for requests that do not come through the designated request mechanism or do not contain sufficient information to allow us to process your request. You may also be required to take reasonable steps as we determine from time to time in order to verify your identity and/or the authenticity of the request. GMS will respond to your request within sixty (60) days either confirming that your request has been processed or indicating that we need an additional thirty (30) days to complete the request.
