Lucas Nursery respects the privacy of anyone who uses a Lucas Nursery Web site and any online applications which gather important information from our visitors and customers. We publish this Privacy Policy to communicate how we gather and use information about you, how we protect it, and how you can participate in its protection.

COLLECTING INFORMATION
We require people who register to use a Lucas Nursery online application (the “Services”) to give us contact information. Depending on the services chosen, we ask for contact and account information, such as name, company name, address, phone number, e-mail address, password, and the number of users in the organization who will be using the Services, in addition to financial and billing information, such as billing name, address and credit card number. When you express interest in additional information, when you register for the Services, or after you become a user, we may ask for additional personal information, such as title, department name, fax number, or additional company information, such as annual revenues, number of employees or industry. You can opt-out of providing additional information by not entering it when asked.
Lucas Nursery does not distribute or share customer e-mail addresses, except as noted in its Terms of Service, or as may be required by law.
Lucas Nursery uses the information we collect to set up the Services for individuals and their organizations. We may also use the information to contact customers and prospects to further discuss their interest in our company, the Services we provide and ways we can improve them, and send information such as announcements of promotions and events regarding our company or partners. We may also e-mail a customer newsletter and updates about the Services or the company. You can opt-out of receiving these communications by replying to them at the time they are distributed or at any time by contacting us.
All financial and billing information that we collect through a Lucas Nursery Web site and the Services is used solely to bill for the Services. Lucas Nursery does not use this billing information for marketing or promotional purposes. Except as we explicitly state at the time we request information, or as provided for in the Lucas Nursery Terms of Service, we do not disclose to any third party the information provided.
Lucas Nursery has referral relationships with third-party companies and individuals (“Referral Partners”) who refer their customers to Lucas Nursery. Customers who become paying users of a Lucas Nursery online application through a Referral Partner are considered customers of both Lucas Nursery and the Referral Partner. Lucas Nursery and a Referral Partner may share customer contact as well as account, financial, and billing information with respect to their joint business relationship with the customer. The sharing of this information allows Lucas Nursery and the Referral Partner to establish the identity of the shared customer and determine referral fees owed. This sharing also allows Referral Partners to provide consolidated billing services to the shared customer. Shared contact and account, financial, and billing information is governed by the Lucas Nursery Terms of Service. Lucas Nursery does not share your business data with Referral Partners.
Lucas Nursery has integration relationships with third-party companies and individuals (“Integration Partners”). These relationships extend the functionality of the Services and the Integration Partner application or service (“Integrated Service”) by allowing the Services and the Integrated Service to exchange customer data and to establish linked business processes between the two. Customers who pay Lucas Nursery for use of the Services and use this Integrated Service are considered customers of both Lucas Nursery and the Integration Partner. Lucas Nursery and an Integration Partner may share customer contact, account, financial and billing information, and business data with respect to their integrated business relationship with the customer. The sharing of this information allows Lucas Nursery and the Integration Partner to establish the identity of the shared customer and determine referral fees owed. This sharing also allows the Integration Partner to provide consolidated billing services to the shared customer and allows for the enhanced functionality of the integrated service. Shared contact, account, financial and billing information, and business data is governed by the Lucas Nursery Terms of Service.
Lucas Nursery uses a third-party intermediary to manage credit card processing. This intermediary is solely a link in the distribution chain and is not permitted to store, retain, or use the information provided, except for the sole purpose of credit card processing.
Other third parties, such as content providers, may provide information on a Lucas Nursery Web site, but they are not permitted to collect any information, nor does Lucas Nursery share any personally identifiable user information with these parties.

SECURITY
Lucas Nursery has security measures in place for the Services to help protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the data under Lucas Nursery’s control. When the Services are accessed using Netscape Navigator, or Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 4.0 or higher, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology protects information using both server authentication and data encryption to help ensure data is safe, secure, and available only to you. Lucas Nursery also implements an advanced security method based on dynamic data and encoded session identifications and hosts the Services in a secure server environment using a firewall and other advanced technology to prevent interference or access from outside intruders. Finally, Lucas Nursery requires unique user names and passwords that must be entered each time a customer logs on. These safeguards help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the appropriate use of data.
