Section 4 – Revocation of Consent

We will never take any steps to limit or impede anyone’s right to revoke their express written consent to receive communication from us and will accept any reasonable form of notice of a person’s revocation of consent including, but by no means limited to, the following:

• Text Response: Replying “Stop”, “Don’t text me anymore”, “Take me off your list” or any similar language that a reasonable person would understand to mean that you do not want to receive text messages from us anymore.  We do not use “short code” or “automated systems” so all of our inbound text messages are read, answered, and processed by the same human being that the full mobile number sending the text message had been assigned to.
• Via Toll Free Phone Call: to our Compliance Officer at (888) 213-4744 x108
• By Written Request: In a letter mailed  Simply Organic, Attn: Compliance Officer, 35095 US 19 North, Suite 200, Palm Harbor, FL 34684.
• Via Email: sending an email, including any and all phone numbers (and email addresses) which you would like to revoke your consent to receive communication from us (or unsubscribe to receiving email from us).
• Communicating the Revocation of Consent to the caller: During a caller’s conversation, giving any indication such as “take me off your list” or “I’d like to revoke my consent to being contacted by you” will immediately end the conversation while the caller verifies all phone numbers and email addresses we have related to your account and confirm your wishes with each.

We not only comply with the “Federal Do Not Call List”, but also maintain our own internal “Do Not Call” database.

Please note that we will similarly take no steps to limit or impede any person’s intention of unsubscribing from our double-opt-in email list.  However, the fastest, most thorough, and easiest way to accomplish this is simply clicking on the “Unsubscribe” link located at the bottom of each email.

By submitting your personal information to us, you agree that such act constitutes an inquiry and/or application for purposes of the Amended Telemarketing Sales Rule (16 C.F.R. § 310 et seq.), as amended from time to time (the “ATSR”) and applicable state do-not-call regulations. As such, notwithstanding that your telephone number may be listed on the Federal Trade Commission’s Do-Not-Call List, and/or on applicable state do-not-call lists, Company and/or third-parties receiving your information as provided herein retain the right to contact you via telemarketing in accordance with the ATSR and applicable state do-not-call regulations.  However, we will always make every commercially reasonable effort to comply to a person’s wish to not contact and respect the databases of third-party “Do Not Call” lists that we are aware of and have access to.

Where you provide “prior express written consent” within the meaning of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (47 U.S.C. § 227), and its implementing regulations adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (47 C.F.R. § 64.1200), as amended from time-to-time (the “TCPA”), you consent to receive telephone calls, including artificial voice calls, pre-recorded messages and/or calls (including SMS text messages) delivered via automated technology, to the telephone number(s) that you provided. You are not required to consent to such telemarketing as a condition of purchasing any property, goods or services; you may revoke such consent at any time. Standard text message rates will apply.

By agreeing to this privacy policy, you are obligated to immediately inform us if and when the telephone number associated with your mobile device has changed.  This is a critical communication that will allow us to avoid making unwanted communications to persons who have not provided express written consent to communications with us.  We will make commercially reasonable efforts to identify phone numbers in our database that have been “transferred” or “ported” and revoke the express written consent related to that number.  However, your obligation of providing us notice of this change is the best means of identifying these situations as they arise.

Section 5 – Can Spam Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.

• Process orders and to send information and updates pertaining to orders
