Privacy Policy
YOUR USE OF OUR SERVICES AND WEB SITES IS SUBJECT TO YOUR AGREEMENT TO THE TERMS OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY.
Joanie's Catering LLC. respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information that you may provide while using our web site and services. This Privacy Policy (the "Policy") is intended to provide you with notice of the following:
Information for Parents/Guardians
We encourage parents and guardians to spend time online with their children to become familiar with the types of content available on the Internet. Parents and guardians should regularly oversee their children's use of e-mail and other online communications and transactional features. Control tools are available from online services and software manufacturers that can help provide a safe online environment for kids.
If you are a parent or guardian who has discovered that your child has submitted his or her personal information without your permission or consent, We will take reasonable steps to remove that information from the our database at your request. To request removal of your child's information, please send us an e-mail (to the address below) and be sure to include in your message the same user name, password, and email address that your child submitted.
What personal information we collect from you
We do not collect any personal information from you, unless you provide it to us voluntarily. If you decide to provide us your personal information (e.g., name, email address, and mailing address), we will only collect the personal information which is needed to fulfill your requests and our legitimate business objectives.
What non-personal information we collect from you
General, aggregated, demographic, and non-personal information may be collected by us. It will not be linked to any of your personal information, through cookies or other means, without your consent. This type of anonymous, aggregated profiling and session data may include information that you have provided to us through surveys, polls, etc., but will not be tied to any personal information, without your consent. It may also include aggregated anonymous information about site usage and the customer base.
In many cases, Joanie's Catering LLC. will automatically collect certain non-personal information about your use of its sites and services. Joanie's Catering LLC. might collect, among other things, information concerning the type of Internet browser or computer operating system you are using, the domain name of your Internet service provider, your "click path" through the our site, and the web site or advertisement that was linked to or from our site when you visited. To do this, we may use cookies and other technology (see below). Your visits to our web sites, and information provided through these technologies, will be anonymous.
Information on cookies and related technology
Joanie's Catering LLC. web sites, and some services and advertisements on such sites, may contain "cookies." A cookie is a piece of data that is sent to your browser, which will store the cookie on your computer if your browser is enabled to accept cookies. Clear gifs (also known as "web beacons") assist in the delivery of cookies.
We use cookies, clear gifs, frames, server log analysis and other technology to customize your experience with our site. Personal information collected through the use of these technologies will be handled according to this Policy.
Most internet browsers will allow you to erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block acceptance of cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. You should refer to your browser instructions or "Help" screen to learn more about how to manage cookies. Please note, however, that if you block cookies, some portions of the SOE web sites and services may not function properly.
How we use and share the information that we collect from you
Personal information which we collect for a particular purpose will only be saved and used for that purpose, unless you have agreed to allow us to use it for some other purpose, as described in this Policy. For example, if you make an online purchase from The Store, and unless you have given us permission to do otherwise, we will only collect and save the personal information you provided to us, including your billing and delivery information, in order to (1) complete the sale, (2) comply with tax and other applicable statutes, (3) maintain accurate business and financial records (in accordance with accepted standards), and (4) assist with customer service.
When you have provided personal information to us for a particular purpose, we may disclose your information to other companies that we have engaged to assist us in fulfilling your request. This may include, but is not limited to, fulfillment houses, billing services, transaction managers, credit verification services, and other third party service providers. We may also disclose any of your personal information to law enforcement or other appropriate third parties in connection with criminal investigations, investigation of fraud, infringement of intellectual property rights, or other suspected illegal activities, or as otherwise may be required by applicable law, or, as we deem necessary in our sole discretion, in order to protect the legitimate legal and business interests of Joanie's Catering LLC..
We may use the information we collect from you for the purpose of providing you with technical support, customer service, and account maintenance. We use the information we collect to learn what you like, tailor your experience accordingly, and to improve web sites and our products. We may send e-mail to our members who want to receive e-mail from us. However, if you don't want to receive e-mail from us, you can "opt out" of receiving it at any time. If you change your mind and wish to stop receiving e-mails from us, you may also choose to opt out by following the steps described in each such e-mail.
Except as described in this policy, we will not give any of your personal information to any third party without your express approval. You will be deemed to have consented to the disclosure to, and use by, a subsequent owner or operator of the Sites, of any personal information contained in our database for such site, if Joanie's Catering LLC. or one of its companies assigns all of its rights and obligations regarding the use of your personal information at the time of a bankruptcy, merger, acquisition, sale of all or substantially all of Joanie's Catering LLC.'s assets to a subsequent owner or operator, or similar event.
Our Commitment to secure the personal information we have collected
While Joanie's Catering LLC. takes precautions against possible breaches in its web sites and customer databases, no web site or Internet transmission is completely secure. Consequently, Joanie's Catering LLC. cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. Your use of the Joanie's Catering LLC.'s sites and services is at your own risk. Joanie's Catering LLC. urges you to take steps to keep your personal information safe by memorizing your password or keeping it in a safe place (separate from your account information), logging out of your user account, and closing your web browser.
Whenever you give Joanie's Catering LLC. sensitive or confidential information (for example, credit card numbers for purchases), Joanie's Catering LLC. will take commercially reasonable steps to protect the information by establishing a secure connection with your web browser. Joanie's Catering LLC. employs a security technology known as a secure-socket-layer ("SSL") to protect the transmission of payment information to the site. Unless otherwise specified herein or on the site where you make a purchase, credit card numbers are used only for payment processing and are not retained for marketing purposes.
