INTRODUCTION
Lakeside Foods, Inc. recognizes and respects the importance of maintaining the privacy of our customers, registered members, and users, and has established this Privacy Notice as a result. The purpose of this Privacy Notice is to inform you of:
• the personal information we may collect from you when you visit our Website, respond to our emails, place orders via mail or fax or other online order processing, or otherwise contact us via telephone, text (SMS, MMS), email, fax or mail (collectively, our “Service”),
• why we collect it, what technologies we employ,
• how we use and protect your information, and
• the choices you have regarding our use, access and correction of personal information you have provided and how to provide feedback to us.
WHY WE COLLECT INFORMATION
The Company collects personal information to process your orders, to communicate with you, to help improve our products and customer service, to provide an enhanced experience and to keep you informed.
WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We collect information through our Website, emails, mail, fax, telephone, mobile devices and including when you:
• visit our Website,
• place an order, and
• engage in other activities, services, products and resources we make accessible to our customers.
We collect some or all of the following types of information, depending on how you interact with us:
• your name, address, telephone number, email address, and contact information,
• billing information (credit/debit card number, expiration date, CVV code, alternate or additional billing information and billing address)
• device information – information about your mobile device, including platform information and device location
• network information – network information, including IP address, network carrier and country code, browsing information, such as how you interact with the Services; and
• other information you provide to us.
Information you provide to us may be collected by us even if an order, registration, or other process is started but not completed or otherwise cancelled.
COOKIE TECHNOLOGY
We employ cookie technology to help subscribers move faster through our site, let us know that you are a prior customer, or user, and to provide certain features to you. When you use our site, we pass several cookies to your computer. A cookie is a string of information that’s sent by a website and stored on your hard drive or temporarily in your computer’s memory. This avoids the potentially time-consuming task of checking our registration database each time a page is requested. Most web browsers allow you to instruct the browser to prevent the use of cookies. However, if you disable this feature, certain aspects of the Services, such as the shopping basket, may not function properly.
Additionally, we have relationships with third parties who may collect or receive information directly from the cookies placed by our Services on your computer to assist in analyzing our business and customers.
Our Service may also use a common web technology called “action tags” (also called single pixel gifs or web beacons) to anonymously track purchases, usage and other web activity information. Action tags may be used to provide data to third parties for tracking purposes. In addition, third parties may set their own cookies and tags through our Services (such as through interest-based advertising, described below). We do not control such third parties or their privacy practices. If you do not want third parties to be able to use such methods, you should modify your browser settings to limit such access.
As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically. This information may include Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, the files viewed on our site (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data to analyze trends in the aggregate and administer the site.
OTHER SERVICES
Advertisements for our products and services may appear on third party websites throughout the Internet. Some websites and services deliver these advertisements based upon data that has been previously collected about your past behavior online. For example, if you have viewed websites about food products for the retail, food service, and industrial sectors, these websites or services may display to you an advertisement for our products. This kind of targeted advertising is sometimes called interest-based or online behavioral advertising. It is generally not based upon your personal information (such as your name or email address), but rather, upon your online activities. We do not control such third-party websites or services on which these advertisements appear. Further, we do not control how they collect and use data about your online activities.
We collect data from you for use in interest-based advertising when you use our Service. Other companies may serve interest-based advertisements on our Service.
USES AND DISCLOSER OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We use information we collect to communicate with you, to process your orders, to improve our products and services, to conduct research, and to provide an enhanced and more personalized shopping experience. In addition, we may make such information (except for credit/debit card numbers, expiration dates and CVV codes, unless you consent otherwise), including aggregated information, available to selected third parties. You may opt-out of such third party sharing of your personal information by following the instructions set forth in the HOW TO LIMIT THE USE OF YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION section below.
We may also share your information with our subcontractors, agents, consultants, financial institutions, credit/debit card payment processors, business partners, vendors and service providers, but we generally only authorize them to use such information for our benefit, for instance, to process your order and to better communicate and provide appropriate offers to you as a consumer. We may transfer your information in connection with the sale, lease, license, assignment (of part or all of our business), merger, reorganization or change of control of us or the division responsible for the Service with which your information is associated, or as part of a bankruptcy proceeding.
We may combine information we receive from you via our Service with information from third parties. We use the combined information to enhance and personalize your shopping experience with us and to communicate with you in accordance with this Privacy Notice.
We may use your information to match it with other public and private data sources in order to enhance our records, such as appending additional information to your profile, or the records of our business partners. We also may work with other providers who also possess your information in order to engage in advertising and other promotional services, such as sharing your personal information with a third party who also has your personal information in order to enhance one or both of our advertising or promotional endeavors.
In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. We reserve the right to disclose information we collect from you, or that you provide to us, as required by law, in response to legal process and law enforcement requests, when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, respond to a government request, and as necessary or appropriate, in our view, to operate the Service, process orders or registrations, to conduct promotions, contests, and sweepstakes you participate in, and to protect the rights or property of the Company, users, customers, and recipients.
We may retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.
CONSENT TO TRANSFER
Our Service is operated in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, please be aware that any information you provide to us will be transferred to and stored in the United States. By using the Services or otherwise providing us with information, you hereby consent to this transfer.
Although personal information collected by us through our Service will be used by us in accordance with this Privacy Notice, laws generally applicable to the protection of personal data in the U.S. may not be as stringent as those in other countries.
