Information Collection and Use

Personally-Identifiable and other Information: 

• When using the CropX Service, you may be required to provide us with Your General Characteristics Data and Your Farm Data.

• If you have accepted CropX Terms and Conditions while placing an order for the CropX Service and Sensors, which allow us to use and disclose all of: (i) Your Farm Data on an anonymous and aggregated basis only: and/or (ii) Your General Characteristics Data on an aggregated basis to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in addition to our use and disclosure of the information collected by us about you as described in, and permitted by, this Privacy Policy, You hereby grant to us a limited, non-revocable, non-exclusive, perpetual, assignable, fully paid-up, royalty free, worldwide license to incorporate Your Farm Data and Your General Characteristics Data (on an anonymous and aggregated basis only) into the Aggregated Data: (w) to modify and enhance the CropX Service; (x) to modify and enhance the CropX Service that we provide to our other customers; (y) to develop, market, sell and license new product and service offerings; and (z) for sales and marketing purposes (all as described our Terms and conditions and Privacy Policy) (the “Commercial Purposes”).
• At any time you can notify us that you do not agree that we use your data on an anonymous and aggregated basis as set forth above  by sending an email to support@cropx.com, but your “opt-out” selection will not apply to any of: (I) Your Farm Data that we collected prior to the date of your “opting-out” (meaning that Your Farm Data previously collected cannot be disaggregated from the data of all of our other customers and we will be able to use and disclose Your Farm Data previously collected in perpetuity in anonymous and aggregated form only); or (II) Your General Characteristics Data that we collected and aggregated prior to the date of your “opting-out” (meaning that Your General Characteristics Data previously collected cannot be disaggregated from the data of all of our other customers and we will be able to use and disclose Your General Characteristics Data previously collected in perpetuity in anonymous and aggregated form only).

• Additionally, in order to access the CropX Service, you may be required to use an account and password that can be obtained by completing a registration form or otherwise, which requests certain information, personal settings and preferences and other data from you, and maintaining and updating such data as required.
• We may also collect other information that you provide us (g., without limitation, zip code (on its own), individual preferences and/or other non-identifying information) (“Non-Identifying Information”).
• Certain Non-Identifying Information would be considered a part of Your General Characteristics Data if it were combined with other identifiers (for example, combining your zip code with your street address) in a way that enables you to be identified. But the same pieces of information are considered Non-Identifying Information when they are taken alone or combined only with other non-identifying information (for example, your services preferences). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, we may combine Your General Characteristics Data with Non-Identifying Information and aggregate it with information collected from other users to attempt to provide you with a better experience, to improve the quality and value of the CropX Service, to analyze and understand how the CropX Service is used and for other purposes stated in this Privacy Policy. We may also use the combined information without aggregating it to serve you specifically, for instance to provide specific services to you.
• We may also use Your General Characteristics Data to contact you with CropX’s newsletters, marketing or promotional materials and other information that may be of interest to you. If you decide at any time that you no longer wish to receive such communications from us, please follow the unsubscribe instructions provided in any of the communications or update your “user preferences” information. (See “Changing or Deleting Your Information” below.)
• Except as disclosed in this Privacy Policy, CropX does not rent, sell, trade or disclose your Personal Information to third parties without your consent.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Aggregate Information. Although we may disclose Your Farm Data, Your General Characteristics Data (except for credit card information) and the Output Service Data on an anonymous, aggregated basis (as provided in our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy), we will not: (i) disclose to any third Person any of Your Farm Data, Your General Characteristics Data or the Output Service Data in any manner which identifies You or Your farm; or (ii) use Your Farm Data, Your General Characteristics Data or the Output Service Data for unlawful or anti-competitive activities (such as using such data to speculate in commodities markets).

Third Parties Providing Services to CropX.

Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement. CropX cooperates with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We will disclose any information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate to respond to claims and legal process (including but not limited to subpoenas), to protect the safety of the public or any person, or to prevent or stop activity we may consider to be, or to pose a risk of being, illegal, unethical or legally actionable activity.

Third Parties Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy only addresses the use and disclosure of information CropX collects from its users.

We will respond to these requests in accordance with the laws that apply to you.  We may retain an archived copy of your records as required by law or for legitimate business purposes.

Security

We are very concerned with safeguarding your information. We employ administrative, physical and electronic measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access. However, we do not guarantee that unauthorized access will never occur.

We will make any legally required disclosures of any  breach of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of your unencrypted electronically stored “personal data” (as defined under applicable law) to you via email or conspicuous posting on the Website in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay, insofar as consistent with (i) the legitimate needs of law enforcement; or (ii) any measures necessary to determine the scope of the breach and restore the reasonable integrity of the data system.
