Links to Other Websites
The Website may contain links, whose information practices may be different than The Blue Gardens.

The Blue Gardens does not make any representations or warranties as to the security of any information (including, without limitation personal information) you might be requested to provide.
These links are provided solely as a convenience to you and not as an endorsement by The Blue Gardens. The Blue Gardens cannot ensure that you will be satisfied with any products or services that you access from a site that links to or from the Website, since these sites are owned and operated independently.
The Blue Gardens is not responsible for the content of linked sites and does not make any representations regarding the content or accuracy of materials on such sites. The Blue Gardens has not taken any steps to confirm the accuracy or reliability of any of the information contained in such sites. If you decide to access linked sites, you do so at your own risk. The Blue Gardens strongly encourages you to make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or off-line transaction with any of these sites.
Security of Your Personal Data
The importance of security for all personally-identifiable information associated with visitors to the Website—as well as The Blue Gardens customer information, such as cell phone numbers, email, addresses, and other account data—is of utmost concern to The Blue Gardens, and we have implemented, and periodically review, certain physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to help prevent unauthorized access and maintain data security. Your personal information is always safe. Our Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software is the industry standard and among the best software available today for secure commerce transactions. It encrypts all of your personal information, including name and address. Unfortunately, due to the open nature of Internet communications, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be secure, and thus we cannot guarantee that communications between you and The Blue Gardens will be free from unauthorized access. Visitors of the Website and The Blue Gardens customers use the Website at their own risk.

You should visit this page periodically, as we may, from time to time, update this Privacy Policy and such changes shall be effectively immediately upon posting on the Website and without further notice to you. Your continued access to the Website following the posting of changes to this Privacy Policy shall be deemed an acceptance of such changes by you. The Blue Gardens will, however, use personally-identifiable information only in accordance with the version of the Privacy Policy under which the information was collected.
Changes in This Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy statement to reflect changes to our information practices. If we make any material changes, we will notify you by email (sent to the e-mail address specified in your account) or by means of a notice on this Site prior to the change becoming effective. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices.
