If you subscribe to a newsletter or other marketing communication, you may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe option included in the communication or by contacting us directly.

4. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to help the website function properly, understand how visitors use the site, and improve our website.

We may use third-party services, such as website analytics, hosting, scheduling, payment processing, email marketing, or other service providers. These providers may collect or process information according to their own privacy policies.

You can adjust your browser settings to refuse or limit cookies. Some website features may not function properly if certain cookies are disabled.

5. How We Share Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

We may share information when reasonably necessary with trusted service providers that help us operate our business, such as:

• Website hosting providers
• Payment processors
• Event-registration or scheduling platforms
• Website analytics providers
• Professional service providers

These providers receive only information reasonably necessary for them to perform their services.

We may also disclose information when required by law, legal process, or governmental request, or when necessary to protect our rights, property, safety, or the safety of others.

6. Information You Provide About Your Property

If you request landscape design, education, or consultation related services, you may provide information about your property, including photographs, site plans, maps, measurements, landscape conditions, water systems, soils, plants, or other project information.

We use this information to provide the requested services, only.

We will not publicly share photographs, project information, or other identifying information about your property for marketing purposes without your permission, except where you have voluntarily provided the information for public use or otherwise authorized us to do so.

7. Payment Information

When payments are made through a third-party payment processor, your payment information may be collected and processed directly by that provider. Vital Soil Landscapes generally does not need to retain your full credit card or debit card information.

Payment processors have their own privacy policies and terms governing their handling of payment information.

8. Data Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

9. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, including partner organizations, educational resources, event venues, payment services, social media platforms, or other websites.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those websites before providing them with personal information.

10. Your Privacy Choices

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the ability to:

• Request information about personal information we maintain about you
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion of certain personal information
• Opt out of certain marketing communications
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

To make a privacy-related request, contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.

11. Do Not Track

Some web browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not currently a universally accepted standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to all Do Not Track signals.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, website, technology, or applicable legal requirements.

When we make changes, we will update the Effective Date at the top of this policy. We encourage you to periodically review this page.
