We are based in the United States and the information we collect is governed by U.S. law. If you are accessing our Services from outside of the United States, please be aware that information collected through our Services will be transferred to, and processed, and used in the United States. The data protection laws in the United States may be different from those of the country in which you are located. Your use of our Services or providing us with any information therefore constitutes your consent to the transfer to, and processing, usage, sharing and storage of your information, including personally identifiable information, in the United States as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

Your participation in any of these activities is voluntary and we will only use the personal information that you provide for the purposes for which it was collected. You will always have the opportunity to opt out or unsubscribe from receiving e-mail or other communications from Bowery at any time and may do so by emailing us at contactus@boweryfarming.com.

This data may be combined and linked with data from other sources.

3. Cookies

We may collect information about you using “cookies.” A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website and stored on your computer or other device. Cookies alone do not tell us your e-mail address or other personal information unless you choose to provide this information to us by, for example, subscribing to our newsletter. Once you choose to provide us with personal information, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie.

You can modify your cookie preferences by accessing your web browser’s settings. Please note that if you delete or choose not to accept cookies from the Services, you may not be able to utilize the features of the Services to their fullest potential.
