Privacy Policy
For our Terms & Conditions, our Privacy Policy and our Business Practices and Policies, we strive to find balance between the best products and service we can provide and a sustainable business plan to ensure we're around to continue to deliver the products in which we so strongly believe.
In everything we do, we strive to go beyond the average and to step away from what everyone else is doing! And so, we’ve tried to create “not your average policies” to go with “not your average natural products.” We believe in corporate responsibility. We also believe in personal responsibility. Our agreement with you (here) tries to balance the two. Please visit our Terms & Conditions for more detailed information about our Policies. |
The Roots of the Agreement
At the base of our company's foundational beliefs, we strive for the highest level of integrity and transparency and the fulfillment of our guiding principles: Whole, Simple and Sustainable. We believe this foundation makes us who we are, both as people and as a business.
We strive to be honest and straight forward in our relationship with you, which is why we acknowledge right up front that we must ask you to shoulder some of the risk that life doles out as our products move along the path from the growers, to our suppliers, to us, to our shippers and retailers and, finally, to your doorstep and into your hands and your daily routine.
In general, we commit to doing everything we can with the resources we have to provide you with high quality products, thoughtful information and reasonable levels of security to the best of our ability. However, with this agreement we must ask you to assume some of the responsibility inherent in using the internet and in using products, because there are many factors beyond our control against which we cannot warranty. Every person is different; everyone has a different perspective; and we cannot be all things to all people, as much as we’d very much like to do just that.

Therefore, by using our Platforms and our products you are acknowledging and assuming that risk against which we cannot warranty and are agreeing to abide by the Terms & Conditions and Policies set forth herein.
The Agreement
our definitionOur Terms & Conditions of Use Agreement and any other Policies stated on our website (the “Site”) apply to all of our Rowan Vitality LLC “Platforms” (which may include, but are not limited to, the Site, mobile applications, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest) – collectively, the “Platforms”.

to which you agree...Simply by visiting our Platforms, you agree to our policies by default, and it’s your responsibility to review them from time to time for changes: Simply by visiting our website or any of our Platforms (as defined, below), you agree to these Terms & Conditions and all other Policies on this website both in their current and future versions. While this may seem all-encompassing, honestly, we’ve learned we need you to operate under this Agreement at all times, even if you’re just reading our blog posts, in order for us to be covered for liability and for company sustainability purposes.
If you do not agree to our Terms & Conditions or any of our Policies, please do not use any of our Platforms, including this Site. |
...Along these same lines, we may change our Terms & Conditions and Policies from time to time, without notice. That means, it’s your responsibility to check back and review them periodically and before any transaction to make sure you always understand to what you’re agreeing just by being here. (See Section 2 of the full Terms & Conditions of Use Agreement for additional information.)
You ensure that you are at least eighteen years old, or at least the minimum legal age required to enter into a contract in your jurisdiction, or that you have explicit permission from your legal guardian who is of the legal age. We must also maintain the right to refuse service of any kind at any time in our sole discretion because we cannot possibly think of or note down every scenario that may occur. |
About Data
We do collect information from you in order to better serve you. However, since we believe in the importance of protection and privacy, we also do our best to protect your information and your privacy.
data collectionWe strive for excellent Service, so we must collect some information from you. We, as a company, only collect information needed to offer and provide you products and services or to better serve you.
While we try to choose our suppliers and partners wisely and in line with our own business policies and beliefs, they are their own companies and we cannot speak to, control, or guarantee their policies or warranty against risks from using their services as part of our process. We use your data to create and offer you new products and services, to get you the products and services we think you’ll like best, or to get you your products and services in a more efficient manner. We also work with other companies to make this happen (for example, web hosting services, merchant service providers, banks, shippers). Therefore, we must ask you to acknowledge and accept that components of our service to you are outside our control and request that you bear the risk that they might collect and use more data than we do at Rowan Vitality LLC as your data and information pass through their services. In order to help you research the other companies and understand their policies as part of your decision, and in keeping with our commitment to you to provide information, we currently use the following companies as service providers, and as such we’ve tried to compile a list of companies that may have access to your information: Weebly, First Data, Authorize.net, Clover, Boeing Employees Credit Union, Domain.com, Microsoft, Trello.com, FedEx, U.S. Postal Service, UPS, Facebook, Twitter, Pintrest, Instagram, (other social media). While we do our best to maintain an accurate and complete list for you, here, you acknowledge that this may not be a complete list and that these companies may also have service providers that will touch your data. Therefore, you consent that our indemnity is not limited to these companies listed here. By making a purchase through the Platforms, you understand and consent to the fact that the technical processing and transmission of the Platforms may involve (a) transmissions over various networks; (b) housing on various servers not housed or controlled by Rowan Vitality LLC; and therefore, (c) Rowan Vitality LLC cannot and does not warranty these transactions or the use of our Platforms. cookiesOur suppliers and our Platforms do use cookies. By using the Platforms you consent to the use of cookies. However, Cookies can also be managed in your browser or device settings. Cookies are generally (but not exclusively) used to give you a more personalized experience. Cookies usage includes (but is not limited to) user identification, storing preferences, and helping you complete tasks without having to re-enter information.

We maintain PCI insurance as part of our merchant service offerings. And we invest our resources to ensure all sensitive and credit information you supply during the purchasing process is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. Despite our best efforts, as described above, we must make sure you understand we cannot assume the risk for your use of our Platforms due to the inherent risk of these kinds of transactions. When you make a purchase on www.rowanvitality.com, your credit card information is transmitted through our web host and through our third-party Gateway to our third-party credit card processor and ultimately to our bank.

By making a purchase through the Platforms, you understand that the technical processing and transmission of the Platforms may involve (a) transmissions over various networks; (b) housing on various servers not housed or controlled by Rowan Vitality LLC; and therefore, (c) Rowan Vitality LLC cannot and does not warranty these transactions or the use of our Platforms. data usageWe, as a company, only collect information needed to offer and provide you products and services or to better serve you. We do not share, sell, or rent your information without prior consent or without legal cause.
In order to go above and beyond the practices of the standard Terms & Conditions for the average company, if Rowan Vitality LLC engages in a joint promotion with an affiliate and/or partner, we will not share your contact information with our affiliate and/or partner without your consent, and even then, we will only share your information to be used in relation to the promotion or the specified partner and/or affiliate agreement. That said, we may share information and offers with you from other companies, partners, or affiliates through our own Platforms. As a responsible company, we must always comply with current laws. As such, we may disclose your personal information as required by law, including, but not limited to such activities as complying with a subpoena or similar legal process; when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud or respond to a government request; or as part of legal agreements necessary for company acquisitions. |
