AgBlox, Inc. (“AgBlox,” “us,” “our,” or “we”) is a company registered in Delaware, having a registered address of 130 Full Moon, Irvine, CA 92618. AgBlox has created this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) regarding the privacy rights of our customers (“Customers”), as well as other users of the AgBlox proprietary machine learning services, models, platforms, and interfaces, and its Meetingmap and iClerk products (collectively, the “Product,” “Products,” “Service,” “Services,” or “Products and Services”) and the AgBlox, Meetingmap, and iClerk websites, including (https://agblox.com and https://meetingmap.com and https://iclerk.com) and any additional and/or successor websites (collectively, the “Websites” and each individually, a “Website”).
This Privacy Policy is intended provide our Customers with confidence in the use of the Products and Services, and the Websites, and to demonstrate our commitment to fair information practices and the protection of privacy. This Privacy Policy is only applicable to the Products and Services and the Websites, and not to any other websites that you may be able to access from the Products and Services, the Websites, or any websites of the various partners or Customers of AgBlox, each of which may have data collection, processing, use, and storage practices and policies, which may differ materially from this Privacy Policy. Your use of the Websites and certain aspects of the Products and Services are governed by this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, and in some instances a subscription agreement and/or end-user license agreement by and between you and AgBlox. The use of information collected through our Products and Services and our Websites shall be limited to the purpose of providing the Products and Services for which our Customers have engaged AgBlox.
The Products and Services offered by AgBlox include both retail products and services, and business and enterprise-level products and services. AgBlox generally is the data controller pursuant to applicable privacy laws. However, where a business or enterprise customer is asking you to use our services (for example, your employer) and where a business or enterprise-level service agreement is in place between AgBlox and the enterprise customer, we obtain and process information that may qualify as personally identifiable information or personal information as defined herein on behalf of and at the instruction of that Customer. In those situations, the business and enterprise customers are the data controllers, and their privacy policies will apply to that information.
If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use any of our Products and Services. If you change your mind in the future, please stop using our Products and Services; you are entitled to exercise the rights outlined in this Privacy Policy concerning your personally identifiable information or personal information.
AgBlox collects information about you that may include both personally identifiable information, and personal information. Personally identifiable information (“PII”) refers to information that can be used to distinguish or trace an individual’s identity, either alone or when combined with other personal or identifying information that is linked or linkable to a specific individual. For example, PII may include a person’s name, home address, email address, or phone number, as well as information that may be considered biometric information, such as a voice or image, and other sensitive information.
Personal Information is any information relating to or associated with an identified or identifiable person, such as for example financial information and information associating that person with a particular identity, such as social, cultural, or physical characteristics, regardless of whether it distinguishes them from another individual or not. AgBlox collects PII, for example directly through its Products and Services, and through third party services used to collect billing information such as credit card numbers. PII is voluntarily provided to us by Customers or users, such as for example sent to us in an email, and is also provided through the use of the Products and Services. We receive and store any PII users provide, either entered on our Websites, provided as Customers of our Products and Services, or in any other way. All PII is considered to be Personal Information, but not all Personal Information is PII.
In order for you to access certain Products and Services, AgBlox may require you to provide us with certain PII. This includes information provided when you create an account to access our Products and Services. During account creation, you will be asked to provide your name, email, and a password, and you may voluntarily add a profile picture or avatar. For our paid Products and Services, our payment processing partner may also collect your name, billing address, and payment information. During use of the Products and Services, we may collect, and you may provide, video and audio recordings that include your voice and image, and any text, videos, files, or other audio or images, either of you or uploaded by you, in the context of providing the Products and Services. Additionally, we may collection information during communication with us. For example, when you contact us, you may provide us with your phone number, email, and any other information you choose to provide over such communication, including information about your query. You may also provide AgBlox with certain other optional information at your sole discretion. For the purpose of this Privacy Policy, all optional information that you provide us will be deemed Personal Information.
The use of Personal Information collected through our Products and Services and our Websites shall be solely limited to the purposes of providing the Products and Services to you, for example to process any applicable payment and communicate with you as needed in connection with the Services.
Use of the Products and Services does not require that AgBlox’s Customers provide to AgBlox any Personal Information relating to any individual.
