SMS (Text) Messaging Privacy Policy

Information Practices
www.herspro.com ("HerbsPro" or "we") understands that privacy and data security are important issues to our program users.  We recognize our obligation to keep your information secure and confidential. The scope of this privacy policy (the "SMS Privacy Policy") applies to the HerbsPro SMS (Text) Messaging Alert Program.  This SMS Privacy Policy is separate from and in addition to HerbsPro website Privacy Policy. We may modify this SMS Privacy Policy at any time, and, accordingly, we urge you to review it and check for updates frequently. By subscribing to/opting-in to the HerbsPro SMS (Text) Messaging Alert Program, you are providing us with personally identifiable information, and you consent to our use of such information as described in this Policy.

What Information Do We Collect?
We will collect your mobile phone number and other personally identifiable information that you voluntarily provide to us ("Personal Information") in order to participate in HerbsPro SMS (Text) Messaging Alert Program.  You may refuse to provide your Personal Information, leading to your inability to participate in the HerbsPro SMS (Text) Messaging Alert Program.

Mobile devices may collect different information than what is collected by computers used to access our website.  When connecting to our website using a mobile device that provides Internet access, if the mobile device service provider uniquely identifies the device, HerbsPro will receive this information.  HerbsPro may use this unique mobile device identification information to offer extended services and functionality. 

Certain HerbsPro services may require the collection of the telephone number for your device.  HerbsPro may associate that telephone number with the mobile device identification information.

Some mobile phone service providers in the United States must operate a system that will pinpoint the physical location of devices that use their service.  Depending on the provider, HerbsPro may automatically receive such location information. HerbsPro (or its service providers) may use and store this information to provide enhanced location-based services.  However, it is not HerbsPro's practice to send unsolicited messages to your mobile phone.

How is Your Information Used and Shared?
Personal information is collected from participating in the HerbsPro SMS (Text) Messaging Alert Program under the specific Terms and Conditions for the HerbsPro SMS (Text) Messaging Alert Program. HerbsPro may use your Personal Information for the following purposes: to administer and improve the program and related services, including SMS services, to provide Internet and mobile security, and to meet legal requirements. HerbsPro, its affiliates and service providers may access your Personal Information and any information you enter through the text messaging service. HerbsPro may work with affiliated organizations to perform certain functions on our behalfs, such as managing data or processing information. These third parties will have access to your Personal Information only to the extent necessary to perform these specific functions and may not use it for any other purpose. We may also share your Personal Information with your cell phone service provider or their partners and subcontractors.
