ACH Food Companies, Inc. together with its affiliates, agents and licensees (collectively “we,” “us,” or “our”), offers you access to its interactive online websites, applications and services. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you access this website (“Website”) or use any of our mobile or other applications (“Applications”), how we and others use this information, under what circumstances we may disclose the information to third parties, and the instances in which we may allow third parties to collect information directly. Depending on your activities when using or accessing our Website or Applications (collectively, “Services”), you may from time-to-time be required to agree to additional terms and conditions. This Privacy Policy applies regardless of whether you use our Services via a computer, mobile device or other platform (collectively, your “Equipment”).
Please note that this policy does not apply to information that we collect about you offline including when you telephone us to sign up for our services.
We collect, use, store or transfer various different kinds of information from you, about you or about your Equipment when you use our Services, including:
Some of the information we collect about you may be personal information that can be used to identify you including – for example, your name, email address, mailing address or delivery address. In some jurisdictions, certain unique identifiers like IP addresses and other usage or technical information may be considered personal information. However, in no instance does personal information include data where your identity has been removed so that we can no longer identify you (anonymous data), which we may use for any purpose.
We collect information from you in different ways and from different places, including:
We may use automatic data collection technologies when you visit our Website, App, view our advertisements, or use our Services. For example, we may use cookies to distinguish you from other users of the Services to help us deliver a better and more personalized service when you use our Services. It also allows us to improve our Services by enabling us to:
We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services. For more information, see Interest-Based Advertising.
The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include, among others:
We do not respond to or honor “do not track” (a/k/a DNT) signals or similar mechanisms transmitted by web browsers.
We use your information to provide you with products, offer you services, communicate with you, deliver advertising and marketing, or to conduct other business operations, such as using information to improve and personalize your experiences. Examples of how we may use the information we collect include:
In any other way we may describe when you provide the information.
We may share information that does not identify you without restriction. We may disclose personal information as follows:
We may also disclose personal information to others:
We do not direct our websites or services to minors, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, do not use or provide any information through the Services. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without appropriate consent, we will delete it. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13 please contact us at ACHConsumerAffairs@tmpdirect.com.
Our Services may integrate technology of third-party advertising networks (“Ad Networks”) that allows for the recognition of your Equipment and the collection of information about the browsing, searching and other activities of you or anyone else using your Equipment. This information is then used to send you advertisements for products and services that are more likely to be of interest to you. For more information on how this type of advertising works, go to www.aboutads.info.
To enable interest-based advertising across your Equipment and software, we may also share data, such as technical identifiers derived from your registration information on our Services or our CRM system, with these Ad Networks. This allows them to link your Equipment, browser, etc. and to better identify you across different environments.
If you do not wish to participate in interest-based advertising via Ad Networks, you may opt-out by visiting and following the instructions set forth at either: (1) the Digital Advertising Alliance’s website (www.aboutads.info); or (2) the Network Advertising Initiative’s website (www.networkadvertising.org/choices). A couple of important notes about these opt-out tool: (i) it includes all the advertising networks that we may work with, but also many that we do not work with; and (ii) it may rely on cookies to ensure that a given advertising network does not collect information about you (“Opt-out Cookies”) – an explanation of how Opt-out Cookies work can be found on www.aboutads.info. Therefore, if you use different Equipment, change web browser or delete these Opt-out Cookies, you will need to perform the opt-out task again.
Finally, please note that certain browsers may offer you the option of providing notice to websites that you do not wish for your online activities to be tracked for interest-based advertising purposes (“DNT Notice”). Some browsers are, by default, set to provide a DNT Notice, whether or not that reflects your preference. Unfortunately, given how preference-based advertising works, DNT Notices may not effective in communicating your preferences. For this and a variety of other reasons, with respect to our Services, we do not take any action based on browser based DNT Notices. Rather, if you do not wish to participate in interest-based advertising activities, you should follow the simple opt-out process identified above.
Our Services may integrate social network plugins, include links to third-party websites or services, or provide you the opportunity to post content. Please keep the following in mind:
Your rights may vary depending on where you are located. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:
If you are a California resident, you may have additional personal rights and choices with regard to your personal information. See our California Privacy Notice for detailed information.
The security of your information is very important to us. We use physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards designed to protect your information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure. The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Services, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.
