Alpine Aminos does not sell personal information and will not sell personal information.

We do not exchange personal information for money or other valuable consideration. We also do not share personal information with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising, targeted advertising, third-party audience building, third-party data brokerage, or another party’s independent marketing purposes.

We do not permit service providers to use Alpine Aminos customer information for their own unrelated marketing, advertising, data-brokerage, profiling, or commercial purposes.

We disclose limited personal information only when reasonably necessary to operate and secure our website; process payments and prevent fraud; calculate applicable taxes and transaction charges; fulfill and ship orders; provide customer service and process claims; send communications requested or authorized by customers; maintain business, accounting, tax, compliance, and transaction records; protect Alpine Aminos, our customers, service providers, or other parties; investigate suspected fraud, abuse, security incidents, or policy violations; comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, subpoenas, warrants, or other lawful legal process; or establish, exercise, or defend legal rights or claims.

These limited operational and legal disclosures are not made for the purpose of selling customer information or allowing another party to independently market to Alpine Aminos customers.

5. Marketing Communications

Back to contents ↑

Where permitted, we may use your contact information to send Alpine Aminos emails concerning products, educational content, company news, promotions, saved-cart reminders, cart-recovery messages, or other company updates.

Alpine Aminos does not provide its customer or subscriber lists to other businesses for their independent marketing purposes.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails immediately by using the unsubscribe link included in those messages, or you may manage preferences through the options made available on our website. You may also contact us at privacy@alpineaminos.com. We do not charge a fee or require you to log in to an account as a condition of unsubscribing from marketing emails.

Opting out of marketing communications does not prevent us from sending non-promotional communications concerning orders, payments, shipping, accounts, security, customer-service matters, policy changes, saved-cart administration, or other transactions you have requested.

We may retain limited information necessary to document and honor your communication preferences and unsubscribe requests.
