as not being personal information.

materials in your communication preferences.
Our website may also share information
with companies that provide support services to us (such as
credit card processors, mailing houses or web hosts) or that
help us market our products and services (such as email

previously identified or for which the individual concerned has
not previously provided consent.

contractual restrictions, an individual is free to refuse or
withdraw his or her consent at any time upon reasonable, advance
notice. It should be noted that in some circumstances, certain
Brazos Valley Spring Water products and services can only be offered if a person
provides personal information to BVSW. If you choose not
provide us with any required personal information, we may not be
able to offer the products or services requested. We will inform
you of the consequences of the withdrawal of consent.
