Last Updated: October 5, 2026

 

AL’S CREEK, LLC (“Al’s Creek,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects the privacy of individuals who visit or interact with our website.

 

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, protect and otherwise process personal information in connection with:

  • communications submitted through the Website;

  • enquiries and business communications arising from the Website;

  • recruitment-related enquiries, where applicable; and

  • other interactions with us that expressly reference this Privacy Policy.

 

Al’s Creek, LLC is a limited liability company registered in Missoula, Montana, United States of America, and operates in an international business environment.

 

Because Al’s Creek is a global business, personal information may be processed across multiple jurisdictions. We seek to handle personal information in accordance with applicable privacy and data-protection laws governing the relevant processing activity.

The Website itself identifies business operations or offices associated with Indonesia, India, Senegal, the United Kingdom and the United States.

 

Accordingly, your Personal Information may be transferred to, stored in or accessed from countries whose privacy laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.

 

Where applicable law imposes requirements for international transfers, Al’s Creek will seek to implement appropriate safeguards, which may include:

  • contractual safeguards;

Al’s Creek does not intend to discriminate against an individual because they exercise a privacy right available to them under applicable law.

 

Because the applicability of California privacy law depends upon statutory criteria, this section should not be interpreted as an admission that Al’s Creek meets every threshold under the CCPA.

 

15. SENSITIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION

Al’s Creek does not intentionally request sensitive personal information through the general Website contact form.

 

You should not voluntarily submit sensitive information unless it is reasonably necessary and specifically requested through an appropriate channel.

  • health;

  • biometric identifiers;

  • precise location;

  • financial account credentials;

Where Al’s Creek legitimately receives sensitive information, it will process that information only as permitted by applicable law and for appropriate purposes.

 

16. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

The Website is intended for business and professional audiences and is not directed toward children.

 

Al’s Creek does not knowingly seek to collect Personal Information from children through the Website.

 

If we become aware that Personal Information has been collected from a child in circumstances where such collection was not permitted by applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to address the situation.

 

17. DATA RETENTION

Al’s Creek retains Personal Information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by applicable law.

 

Retention periods may depend upon:

  • the nature of the information;

  • the purpose for which it was collected;

  • the nature of the relationship;

  • legal and regulatory obligations;

  • contractual obligations;

  • limitation periods;

  • dispute-resolution requirements;

  • security considerations; and

  • legitimate business requirements.

 

When Personal Information is no longer required, we may securely delete, anonymize or otherwise dispose of it in accordance with applicable law.

 

18. DATA SECURITY

Al’s Creek takes reasonable technical, organizational and administrative measures designed to protect Personal Information against:

  • unauthorized access;

  • unauthorized disclosure;

  • alteration;

  • destruction;

  • loss;

  • misuse; and

  • other unlawful processing.

 

Security measures may include appropriate access controls, authentication, confidentiality measures, organizational controls, technical safeguards and security monitoring, as appropriate to the nature and risk of the information.

 

However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

 

Accordingly, while we take reasonable measures to protect Personal Information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

 

19. DATA BREACHES

Where applicable law requires notification of a personal-data breach, Al’s Creek will follow the applicable legal requirements concerning investigation, notification and remediation.

 

Where we determine that a breach is likely to result in a legally reportable risk to affected individuals, notifications will be made to the relevant authorities and/or individuals within the time and manner required by applicable law.

 

20. THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES

The Website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.

 

Al’s Creek does not control those third-party websites and is not responsible for their:

  • privacy practices;

  • content;

  • security;

  • data collection;

  • cookies;

  • terms; or

  • processing of Personal Information.

 

You should review the privacy policies of third-party websites before providing them with Personal Information.

 

21. BUSINESS AND COMMERCIAL COMMUNICATIONS

If you voluntarily contact Al’s Creek regarding a business, commercial, investment, funding, commodity or advisory opportunity, we may retain relevant correspondence and contact information for purposes of evaluating and managing that relationship.

 

Where permitted by applicable law, we may send relevant business communications to professional contacts with whom we have an existing relationship or legitimate business interest.

 

You may request that we stop sending non-essential communications, subject to legal or contractual obligations.

 

22. DUE DILIGENCE AND COMPLIANCE INFORMATION

Given the international nature of Al’s Creek's activities, certain commercial relationships may require enhanced due diligence.

 

Where appropriate, Al’s Creek may collect and process information necessary to assess:

  • identity;

Such information will be processed only where reasonably necessary and in accordance with applicable law.

  • professional advisers;

  • commercial counterparties;

  • referral sources;

  • other legitimate business sources.

 

Where required by applicable law, we will provide appropriate notice regarding such processing.

 

24. AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING

Al’s Creek does not presently intend for the general Website to make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects concerning individuals solely through automated processing.

 

If this practice changes and applicable law requires additional disclosure or safeguards, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.

 

25. DO-NOT-TRACK SIGNALS

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” functionality.

 

Because there is no universally accepted technical standard governing such signals, the Website may not respond to every browser-based Do Not Track signal.

 

Where applicable law requires recognition of a legally recognized universal opt-out mechanism or similar signal, Al’s Creek will implement such mechanism as required.

 

26. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY WHEN SUBMITTING INFORMATION

  • the information is accurate;

  • you have the authority to provide it;

  • you are not violating another person's privacy rights;
