Privacy Policy

At AgroPost, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website (agro-post.com) and use our marketplace, news, and community features.

Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the site.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect on the Site includes:

• Personal Data: Personally identifiable information, such as your name, email address, and telephone number, that you voluntarily give to us when you register with the Site or when you choose to participate in various activities related to the Site (e.g., posting marketplace listings or using our notice board).
• Business Data: Information related to your farm or agribusiness, such as company name, physical address, and crop/logistics preferences, used to facilitate B2B and B2C transactions on our marketplace.
• Derivative Data: Information our servers automatically collect when you access the Site, such as your IP address, your browser type, your operating system, your access times, and the pages you have viewed directly before and after accessing the Site.
• Cookies & Tracking: We may use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and other tracking technologies to customize your experience (e.g., saving your preferred news regions) and improve our platform.

2. Use of Your Information

Having accurate information about you permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Site to:

• Create and manage your account.
• Facilitate marketplace transactions, negotiations, and communications between buyers and sellers.
• Personalize your news feed and platform dashboard based on your regional and topical preferences.
• Send you transactional emails, such as password resets and notification of new marketplace offers.
• Analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the Site.

3. Disclosure of Your Information

We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations. Your information may be disclosed as follows:

• Interactions with Other Users: If you interact with other users of the Site (e.g., posting a grain listing or a transport request), those users may see your name, business profile, and descriptions of your activity.
• By Law or to Protect Rights: If we believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of our policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others.
• Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your information with third parties that perform services for us or on our behalf, including data analysis, email delivery, hosting services, and customer service.

4. Security of Your Information

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

5. Cookies, Analytics & Advertising

We use first-party cookies that are strictly necessary for the site to function (security, your selected language, light/dark theme, and your login session). With your consent, we also use the following Google services:

• Google Analytics 4: to measure traffic and understand how the site is used. Google Analytics may collect your IP address (used by Google to derive coarse, non-precise location and then anonymized), device and browser information, and your on-site activity. We do not use it to identify you personally.
• Google Signals: when enabled, Google may associate visit data with signed-in Google users who have turned on Ads Personalization, which provides cross-device and demographic/interest reporting.
• Ads personalization & user-provided data: if we run advertising, Google may use measurement signals (and, where applicable, hashed identifiers you provide) to measure and personalize ads. These are only activated if you accept the "Marketing" category.

We implement Google Consent Mode v2: analytics and advertising storage are denied by default until you opt in, so no analytics or advertising cookies are set until you accept them. You can change your choice at any time (see below).

6. Your Choices & Consent

On your first visit, a banner lets you Accept all, Reject all, or choose specific categories (Necessary / Analytics / Marketing). You can revisit and change these choices anytime:

Manage cookie preferences

You can also opt out of Google Analytics across all websites with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, and manage Google ad personalization in your Google Ad Settings.

7. Your Rights — EU / UK (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal data, and the right to data portability. Where we rely on your consent (analytics and advertising), you may withdraw it at any time without affecting processing carried out beforehand. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. To exercise these rights, contact us below.

8. California Privacy Rights (CCPA / CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request access or deletion, to correct inaccurate information, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not sell your personal information for money. Use of advertising cookies (Google Signals / ads personalization) may constitute "sharing" under the CPRA; you can opt out by selecting Reject all or by disabling Marketing in cookie preferences — this serves as our "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" control. We do not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

9. International Data Transfers

We operate in the United States and use service providers (including Google) that may process data in the U.S. and other countries. Where required, such transfers rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses.
