How do we gather data by automatic means?

Sometimes we use cookie technology (which are small files of information created by a website), web beacons (which track a website user’s movements through a website), and similar devices on our sites to enhance use and navigation for our visitors and learn about the use and users of our site. Some of this technology may be provided by third parties. For example, we may use cookies through Google Analytics. In that case, Google provides the cookie technology. For more information on collection and processing of data through Google Analytics, please see www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners.

Information tracked through cookie technology, web beacons, and similar devices includes but is not limited to (1) your IP address (which identifies your specific device, such as a computer), (2) the type of web browser (such as Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge) and operating system (the software that runs a computer, such as Microsoft Windows) being used, and other information regarding your system (such as the visual dimensions of your computer screen), (3) the pages of the site you visit, (4) other websites you visited before visiting our site, and (5) your geographic location (your position on Earth). Cookies do not collect or contain your name or email address.

If you wish to disable cookies so that these small files of information are not created by our website, please check your browser’s help menu or settings to learn how to disable the cookies.

Internet tags, graphic tags and similar web beacon type functions allow us to count the number of users who have visited a particular web page or to access certain cookies. We may use web beacons on our websites to count users and to recognize users by accessing our cookies. Being able to access our cookies allows us to personalize our website and improve your experience on our website. We may also include web beacons in certain email messages to determine which email messages are opened. Like cookies, web beacons do not collect or contain your name or your email address.

How do we respond to “do not track” signals?

“Do Not Track” is a privacy preference that users can set in their web browsers. When our website receives a “Do Not Track” code, except when where a website user actively and knowingly provides personal information (such as through our contact forms), our website does not track your use across multiple websites other than the affiliated or related websites included within this Privacy Notice (as referenced at www.postconsumerbrands.com/privacy). However, other websites (including, but not limited to, websites of certain of our related companies and third party providers, such as our career portal provider) to which we link may continue to track you. When we receive web requests from a user who enables the “Do Not Track” preference by actively choosing an opt-out setting in their browser, we will take reasonable efforts to disable tracking cookies/scripts (e.g. Google Analytics, Google Adwords, Facebook, Twitter, Run, and/or other third party scripts).

Do we allow the collection of personal information by third parties?

No, we do not currently allow the collection of personal information via our website by third parties, other than our service providers who collect it on our behalf.

Social-Networking Services and Applications; Links to Other Websites

Our site may contain links to the websites of our subsidiaries (companies we control) and affiliates (companies in which we share common control or ownership), and to websites that are owned and operated by third parties. These other websites may have their own privacy notices and are not governed by this Privacy Notice.

Similarly, third party social-networking services and applications may have their own privacy notice.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of websites owned and operated by any third parties. Third parties may collect and treat information collected differently than we do.

There are more disclosures in the Special U.S. Privacy Information Section below.

What are your additional practices with respect to the collection, use and disclosure of information from children under the age of 18?

We encourage parents or legal guardians to monitor their children’s online activities. If you are a parent or legal guardian, please help us protect your children’s privacy by instructing them never to provide personal information (like their full name, e-mail address, home address, and telephone number) without your permission.

All or some of this website may be directed to children under 18, so our conduct may be governed by applicable law that address children’s online privacy, as well as by the guidelines of the Children’s Advertising Review Unit (CARU), a part of the Council of Better Business Bureaus. Our practices related to the collection of information on our website are guided by these laws and guidelines.

This section notifies parents and legal guardians of:

We do not knowingly collect personal information (like full name, e-mail address, phone number or home address) from children under 18 without the consent of a parent or legal guardian, except in limited circumstances authorized by law. For example, as described elsewhere in this Privacy Notice, we do automatically collect some information, like (1) your child’s IP address (which identifies their specific device, such as a computer), (2) the type of web browser (such as Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge) and operating system (the software that runs a computer, such as Microsoft Windows) being used, and other information regarding your child’s system (such as the visual dimensions of their computer screen), (3) the pages of the site your child visits, (4) other websites your child visited before visiting our site, and (5) your child’s general geographic location (their position on Earth), and we use cookie technology (which are small files of information created by a website), web beacons (which track a website user’s movements through a website), and similar devices to provide functionality and support to our internal operations.

Unless the parent or legal guardian has explicitly consented, we are authorized by law, or we believe it is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of our company, our customers or others, we do not (i) use your child’s personal information for any purpose other than as set forth under this section, or (ii) share, disclose, sell, rent, or otherwise transfer your child’s personal information in a form that could identify the child, except to third parties who provide support for the internal operations of this site and who are required by a contract or other obligations to use the information only for such purpose and to keep the information confidential.

We may use the personal information we collect from your child to:

Sometimes, we may offer promotions and activities, such as contests, sweepstakes, raffles and games, on our website. We only collect as much information about children as is reasonably necessary for the child to participate in such activities. A child is not required to disclose more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in promotions or activities directed to children. In order to permit your child to participate, we may first ask your child to submit your name and e-mail address so we can notify you of your child’s request and get your permission to proceed. When we ask for your permission, we will tell you what we will do with the information you or your child provides us, how you can review your child’s information, and how you can revoke your consent (i.e. tell us we no longer have permission) and ask us to delete the information.

If a parent or legal guardian provides their consent, we may collect other personal information from their child and use that information to allow the child to participate (for example, select a winner of the promotion and, if the child wins, we will contact the parent (not the child) for further information needed for any prize delivery). If a parent or legal guardian does not provide their consent, the information will be deleted from our records within a reasonable time after the information is collected.

We also permit children under the age of 18 to contact us through the website’s “Contact Us” link with questions or comments. We request only the child’s first name and e-mail address and use that information only to respond directly to a specific request from the child on a one-time basis. We do not use the information to re-contact the child and we delete the child’s personal information from our records after responding to the child’s inquiry.

Except in limited circumstances, our website does not permit children to make their personal information publicly available. Some activities, such as when a child submits artwork, recipes, designs, or other content to our website or participates in certain contests, may permit children to make their personal information publicly available. We will obtain consent from a child’s parent before allowing such information to be publicly available. For activities that involve public posting, we encourage children not to use their full names or screen names. Instead, we recommend using a first name, nickname, or initials.
We retain personal information collected from children for only as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose for which the information was collected.

Upon proper identification, a parent or legal guardian may review any personal information we have collected from their child if we still have the information in our records. A parent or legal guardian may also request that their child’s information be deleted from our records and may refuse to permit further collection, use and/or disclosure of the child’s information. If you are a parent or a legal guardian of a child under 18 and wish to exercise these rights, please contact us by clicking here.

If we learn that we have collected information from a child under the age of 18 in a manner that does not follow applicable law, we will either delete the information or contact the child’s parent/legal guardian to seek consent as required under such law. No other website operators may collect or maintain personal information from children through our website.
