This policy applies to 550nm Tech LLC (Company, us, our, we), greenalienclean.com, Green Alien, greenaliencleaner.com, and green-alien-cleaner.com. The Company’s website is an e-commerce, news, and information site.

Certain state privacy laws require disclosures in privacy policies. California residents, please see the California Consumer Privacy Act Notice in Section eight below. Consumers in Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, and other states with similar privacy laws, please see Section nine below.

The Company’s products and services are for a general audience, are not targeted at children, and do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 years of age.

This Privacy Policy applies to our collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information (i.e., information that identifies a specific person, such as full name or email address). It also describes our practices for handling non-personal information (for example, interests, demographics, and service usage). Please note that the information that we may collect, use, and/or disclose varies based on a user’s interactions with Company products and services.

By using the Company’s website, you consent to the data practices described in this statement.

Two: Our Collection of Information:

Depending on your interactions with us and our service providers, we may collect the following personally identifiable information (PII) and non- personally identifiable information from and about you:

Registration Information is information you submit to register at a Company website, for example, to create an account, post comments, receive a newsletter, or enter a contest or sweepstakes. Registration Information may also include, for example, name, email address, phone number, zip code, user/display name, birthday, occupation, or employer. Depending on when and how you register, we may collect an email address, but not a password.

Customer Service and Feedback Information is information you submit to request customer support or to provide feedback about Company products and services, such as your name, email address, and state of residence.

User-uploaded content consists of video, audio recordings, photographs, or other material that you upload as part of our gathering reviews and other services.

Personal Financial and Commercial Information is information that you submit to purchase a product or make a payment.

Public Information and Posts consist of comments or content that you post to our website and the information about you that accompanies those posts or content. This information may include your name, user/display name, comments, likes, status, profile information, and pictures. Public Information and Posts are always public, which means they are available to everyone and may be displayed in search results on external search engines. Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through the Company’s public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others.

Activity Information. When you access and interact with the Company, the Company, and its service providers may collect certain information about those visits. For example, to permit your connection to the Company website, our servers receive and record information about your computer, device, and browser, including potentially your IP address, browser type, and other software or hardware information. If you access the Company website from a mobile or other device, we may collect a unique device identifier assigned to that device, or other transactional information for that device.

Cookies and other tracking technologies (such as browser cookies, pixels, beacons, local storage, and other mechanisms) use various approaches to collect and store data. Some of these technologies store data in the browser or on your device. Other technologies may use network-related or other information to recognize your device (e.g., IP address). Our websites, apps, and other services may use these technologies. Depending on your interactions with us, these technologies may also be used to collect and store information about your usage of the Company website, such as pages you have visited, your search history, and any video and other content you have viewed.

A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize the Company’s pages, or register with the Company’s site or services, a cookie helps the Company to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Company’s features that you customized.

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. You can change your settings to notify you when a cookie is being set or updated and to block cookies altogether. Please consult the “Help” section of your browser for more information, including how to clear data from local storage and, depending on your browser, how to turn off other data collection by the browser. For more information about Google Analytics, please review the site “How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services,” located at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. To opt out of Google Analytics specifically, please go to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Please note that by blocking any or all cookies, you may not have access to certain features, content, or personalization available through our websites.

In some instances, these entities may return an online identification code that we may store in a first-party cookie or other similar technology for our use in online and cross-channel advertising, and it may be shared with advertising companies to enable interest-based and targeted advertising. To opt out of this use for Company websites, please send a written request to info@550nmtech.com.

As noted above, advertising technology companies and advertisers may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information, such as demographic information, inferred interests, aggregated information, and information about the different devices and/or browsers you use and your activity on such devices and browsers, to assist them in delivering advertising that is more relevant to your interests. Such information may also be used to deliver more relevant advertising to you across marketing channels, including email.

Four: The Security of Your Personal Information:

The Company secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. The Company uses the following methods for this purpose:

SSL Protocol

When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.

We strive to take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or alteration of your personal information. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, you acknowledge that: (a) there are security and privacy limitations inherent to the Internet that are beyond our control; and (b) the security, integrity, and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and us through this site cannot be guaranteed.

Five: Your Access and Control

If you would like to obtain a copy of the personal information we hold about you, delete, or correct personal information that you have previously provided directly to us, please contact us in writing at info@550nmTech.com. Please note that, for security reasons, we will ask you to verify your identity to proceed with your request. If you would like to limit our use of your personal information, you may contact us as outlined in Section 7. In your request, please include your email address, name, address, and telephone number and specify clearly what information you would like to limit. We will try to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable.

Please provide your email address and first and last name and a description of your request. We will try to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable.

Six: Other Information:

Location of Data. The Company’s website is managed from the United States. If you are a user located outside the United States, you understand and consent to having any personal information processed in the United States or in any other country in which we have facilities or in which we engage service providers. The United States and other countries’ data protection laws may not be the same as those in your jurisdiction. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies or security authorities in the United States may be entitled to access your personal information.

Linked Services. The Company’s website may be linked to sites operated by unaffiliated companies, and in the future may offer content, functionality, newsletters, contests, or applications developed and maintained by unaffiliated companies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of unaffiliated companies, and once you leave our website you should check the applicable privacy policy of the other service.

In addition, the Company is not responsible for the privacy or data security practices of other organizations, such as Meta, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), Apple, Google, Microsoft or any other app developer, app provider, social media platform provider, operating system provider, wireless service provider, or device manufacturer, including in connection with any information you disclose to other organizations through or in connection with our website.

Collection of Personal Financial Information by a Payment Service. We may use an unaffiliated payment service to allow you to purchase a product. If you wish to purchase a product or make a payment using a Payment Service, you will be directed to a Payment Service webpage. Any information that you provide to a Payment Service will be subject to the applicable Payment Service’s privacy policy, rather than this Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for, any Payment Service’s use of information collected through any Payment Service.

We and/or Payment Service provider(s) may use payment information to help provide our services. For example, payment information may be used to retrieve account information to determine whether a customer is eligible for promotions, and to detect abuse of our website.

Data Retention. We will retain your information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or allowed by law. Remember that even after you cancel your account, or if you ask us to delete your personal information, copies of some information from your account may remain viewable in some circumstances where, for example, you have shared information with social media or other services. Because of the nature of caching technology, your account may not be instantly inaccessible to others. We may also retain backup information related to your account on our servers for some time after cancellation or your request for deletion, for fraud detection or to comply with applicable law or our internal security or recordkeeping policies. It may not always be possible to completely remove or delete all your information due to technical constraints or contractual, financial, or legal requirements.

Deidentified Information. To the extent we process “deidentified” personal information, as defined under applicable law, we will maintain and use that information in deidentified form and will not attempt to reidentify the information except as permitted by applicable law.
