Privacy Policy
Ambient Green, LLC (“Ambient Green”) operates AmbientGreen.com and may operate other websites. It is Ambient Green’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Ambient Green collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Ambient Green’s purpose in collecting non-personally-identifying information is to better understand how its visitors use its website. From time to time, Ambient Green may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website. Ambient Green also collects potentially personally-identifying information such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on AmbientGreen.com blogs/sites. Ambient Green only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that is uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog or site where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors of Ambient Green’s websites choose to interact with Ambient Green in ways that require Ambient Green to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Ambient Green gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we may ask visitors who sign up at AmbientGreen.com to provide a username, password, and email address. This may also include the content of information you post to the site (e.g., text, photos, videos, links). Those who engage in transactions with Ambient Green are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Ambient Green collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Ambient Green. Ambient Green does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
Ambient Green may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. Ambient Green may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Ambient Green does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Ambient Green discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Ambient Green’s behalf or to provide services available at Ambient Green’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Ambient Green’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Ambient Green will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations, as described above, Ambient Green discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order, or other governmental request, or when Ambient Green believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Ambient Green, third parties, or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Ambient Green website and have supplied your email address, Ambient Green may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, inquire about projects or possible submissions, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Ambient Green and our products. If you send us a request (for example, via email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Ambient Green takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
International Data Transfers
We are based in the United States and the information we collect is governed by U.S. law. By accessing or using Ambient Green’s websites or providing information to us, you consent to the processing, transfer, and storage of information in and to the U.S. and other countries, where you may not have the same rights as you do under local law.
Image Privacy
Every image uploaded to Ambient Green- whether uploaded directly without going through a user account, or uploaded via a user account- has its own URL, and no matter what your privacy settings are, every image or group of images can always be accessed and viewed by anyone who types in that exact URL. No image uploaded to Ambient Green is ever completely hidden from public view. This is mainly to ensure that Ambient Green, which allows anonymous postings, will not be used as a platform for illegality.
Cookies

Business Transfers
If Ambient Green, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Ambient Green goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Ambient Green may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
