Cookies, Web Beacons and Similar Technologies use
imPRESS Foods and third parties that provide content and advertising with our services, may use cookies or similar technologies to facilitate website administration and navigation, to better understand your needs and improve our services; to determine and improve the advertising shown to you; and to provide you with a rich customer experience.
General description of “Cookies” and “Web beacons”
“Cookies” are small files that are placed on your computer or device when you visit a website. Cookies may be used to store a unique identification number tied to your computer or device so that you can be recognized as the same user across one or more browsing sessions, and across one or more sites.
Some cookies are essential in order to enable you to move around our Services and use its features, such as accessing secured areas.
Other cookies collect information about how visitors use the Services (for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages). When combined with information collected when you register on a website, cookies allow us to welcome you back to the site or otherwise provide enhanced, more personal features.
Cookies may also be used on our behalf by third parties managing our advertising on other websites to enable us to learn which advertisements bring visitors to our sites and to otherwise improve or target our online advertising.
Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but can be configured not to do so or to notify the user when a cookie is being sent.
If you wish to disable cookies, refer to your browser help menu to learn how to disable cookies. Please note that if you disable cookies, you may be unable to access some customized features on our Services.
“Web beacons” and similar technologies are tiny or transparent images that, for example, allow us and third parties to count the number of users who have visited a particular web page or to access certain cookies. When you access a page containing a beacon, you establish a communication with a web server, which collects certain information about your computer or device. This information may include your IP address, browser type, operating system type, and identifiers that have been stored in cookies. We may use beacons on Services to count the number of visitors to our Services and to recognize users by accessing unique identifiers stored in cookies that we have set on their computers or devices.
Being able to access these identifiers enables us to provide a personalized experience on our Services. We may also include beacons in advertisements or in email messages to determine how these are acted on.
Disclosure of information to others
We may share the information we collect with the following types of entities located in Canada:
Service Providers and advisers. We may share information with third parties that provide services on our behalf and third parties that provide services to us. These parties may use the information solely in conjunction with the specific services they provide for us or to us. As in the example of a contest.
Other Parties when required by law or as necessary to protect our users and services. We also may disclose information to third parties in order to:
- Protect our legal rights, as well as the rights of the users of our services or others;
- Protect the safety and security of the services, our users, or others;
- Investigate violations of law and to prevent fraud;
- Comply with the law in any of the jurisdictions in which we do business, or if we are compelled to release information by a court of law or other person or entity with jurisdiction to compel production of such information, asked to respond to legal process or a request for co-operation by a government entity, whether or not legally required (depending on local law).
Other parties in connection with a corporate transaction. We reserve the right to disclose any information we have about you in the event that we sell, merge, or otherwise transfer all or a portion of our business or assets to a third party (or offer to do so), or in the unlikely event of a bankruptcy or similar event. Outside this context, we will not sell any lists of consumer contact information to unaffiliated companies for their marketing purposes.
Otherwise with your consent or as permitted by law. In addition to the sharing described or permitted by this Privacy Policy, we may share information about you with third parties whenever you consent to such sharing, or as permitted by law.
Third parties who provide content, advertising or functionality on our services
Some of the content, advertising, and functionality on our services may be provided by third parties who are not affiliated with us.
For example:
- Some third parties may offer or monitor advertising, keep track of which advertisements users see, and evaluate how users respond. These third parties may use cookies, web beacons or similar technologies to provide these services.
- We may enable you to share content on the services with others through social networking services such as Facebook and Instagram.
These third parties may collect or receive some information about your use of our services, including through the use of cookies, beacons, and similar technologies.
This information may be collected over time and combined with information collected across different websites and online services, where permitted by law.
One of the third parties that provides services to us is Google Inc. Like many websites, we use Google Analytics, a service that provides information about how many users visit our Services, when they visit, and how they navigate our Services. Google offers a browser add-on that enables users to opt out of having data about their visits reported to websites by Google Analytics. More information about the add-on is here.
Safeguarding Information
We are committed to keeping your interactions on imPRESS Foods services safe and secure. We have implemented administrative, technical, and physical measures intended to safeguard personal information in our custody and control against theft, loss, and unauthorized access, use, modification, and disclosure. Please note, however, that we cannot absolutely guarantee the security of any information you provide online; you provide it at your own risk.
User-Generated Content And Public Profile Features
Our Services may, from time to time, contain interactive areas where Services users might submit comments or other content (including information about the user that might be displayed in the user’s public profile within an online community) that may be visible to others. Users should be aware that when they voluntarily disclose personal information in content submitted for posting or publication, the information can be read and used by others. This may result in unsolicited messages from other posters or parties. We make no representations and undertake no obligations as to the security or use of information you voluntarily include when submitting content.
Send-To-A-Friend Tools
Our services may occasionally involve a request to send to a friend, such as for a referral or sharing a contest. This makes it easier for you to send information or content from our email services to your family or friends.
In order to address your email message, the application may ask you to input the recipient’s email address and/or similar information (including your email address).
This information is used by the application to address your message so that it can be properly sent. We may temporarily maintain a log of this information for troubleshooting and fraud-prevention purposes. In the event that we are offering you some form of referral award for encouraging an action on the part of the recipient (for example, if you are to earn a reward if the recipient chooses to register for one of our offerings after receiving the email from you), we may also retain the information as necessary to establish that the referral award was earned.
Children’s Privacy
Our services are not directed to children but to parents who buy for their children, as defined by the law. We will not knowingly solicit information from children. imPRESS Foods does not have any other services intended in whole or in part for children. imPRESS Foods takes special precautions to protect children’s privacy.
Anonymity And Pseudonyms
Where feasible, you may have the option of not identifying yourself or using a pseudonym when dealing with us unless we are required by law or a court/tribunal to deal with individuals who have identified themselves, or it is impractical for us to deal with you if you have not identified yourself.
Changes To Our Privacy Policy
We may change or replace this Privacy Policy at our sole discretion at any time. Please check back from time to time to ensure that you are aware of any updates or changes in this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of, or access to, our Services, as well as our handling of your information more generally, will be subject to the version of the Privacy Policy that is in force at the time of that use, access, or handling.
