SNOW LION WEBSITE'S
PRIVACY & CONTENT POLICY

Personal Information
Snow Lion collects personal information with each order you place. The requested information is clearly identified on the specific pages. Occasionally we sell customer mailing addresses to organizations who have interests that are similar to ours. If you do not want to have your address sold, please let us know and we will be glad to accommodate you. We do not sell customer email addresses or phone numbers. We offer mailing lists for weekly dharma quotes and news updates, but you are added only upon your request.

Third Party News Content
Snow Lion provides to our customers article from various sources on news from the international Tibetan and Buddhist community. Snow Lion is a distributor (and not a publisher) of content supplied by third parties.

Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers, or other information or content expressed or made available by third parties, are those of the respective author(s) or distributor(s) and not necessarily of Snow Lion. Snow Lion cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any content, nor its merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose.

Events Database
Snow Lion collects events and teachings worldwide and compiles them into a searchable database. Although Snow Lion tries to include events, teachers, and centers that are of the highest credentials, Snow Lion cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any content, nor the credentials of the teacher, center, or group hosting the event. Snow Lion does not necessarily endorse the content, operators, products or services of such events, and Snow Lion is not responsible or liable for the content, operators, availability, accuracy, quality, advertising, products, services or other information or materials available from such events. Snow Lion shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any such content, products or services available through such events.
