We are committed to protecting your personal data and complying with the Data Protection
Act 1998 and associated legislation. This Privacy Page outlines the type of information
that is collected by us on this website, and how we use and protect it. This Statement
also outlines your rights regarding data protection, and tells you how to contact
us. This Statement applies only to this website. For example, it does not apply
to banners, advertisements or promotions we may sponsor or participate in on websites
owned by third parties.
2. Personal data and its uses
(a) What we collect and why When referring to "personal data",
we mean information we collect from you, from which you may be personally identified.
Typically, this may include your name, address, telephone number (including mobile
number), credit card information, screen name, email address, age, sex and family
status, but may also include other information such as shopping habits and preferences
and lifestyle details such as hobbies and interests. Please be assured that we will
not collect any personal data from your visits to our site unless you provide this
information voluntarily. When you supply personal data to us through this website,
it will be clear what we plan to use the data for and we will seek your consent
to such use. We will then use it only for such purposes. Typical purposes are as
follows:
(i) Answering your queries Where you send us personal data in the
context of asking us a question or query (for example, about the company, or its
products or services or their quality or availability), we shall use the data you
provide in order to respond to your question. In some cases, it may be necessary
to share your details with other members of the Ferrero Group, or with other third
party data processors.
(ii) Entering a promotion We may use personal data submitted in
an entry form for a promotion for the purpose of administering the promotion in
accordance with its stated rules. Such rules may require the publication of abbreviated
winners' identity details, and may require winners to participate in future publicity.
The promotion may be administered by third party agencies on our behalf, who may
have access to the data you submit (see data processors).
(iii) Fulfilling a contract/order We may use personal data you
submit to us when ordering goods or services from us for the purpose of fulfilling
that order, and it may be necessary for us to share such data with third parties
such as the card payment services provider or carrier of goods.
(iv) Future direct marketing Where you elect to receive such material,
we will from time to time send you information and/or offers about our goods and/or
services which we believe may be of interest to you. If you agree, we may also share
your data with or pass it to other companies in the Ferrero Group and other carefully
selected companies who may wish to send you information and/or offers about their
goods/services, as stated at the time we collect your data. At any time, however,
you may unsubscribe from ("opt out" of) such future contact.
3. Data Processors At times we may retain third parties to process
or analyse data we collect on our websites, including your personal data. For example,
the website may be maintained or hosted by a specialist IT services agency, and
any promotions may be administered by a sales promotion agency. In addition, if
you order a product or service from us, we may share personal data with suppliers
and other third parties to allow payment and delivery of such product or service.
These suppliers and other third parties are contractually obliged not to use your
personal data in any way other than that which we have specified.
4. Security We take reasonable precautions to keep your personal
data secure, and require third party data processors to do likewise. All personally
identifiable information is subject to restricted access to prevent unauthorised
access, modification or misuse. Please note, however, that we may release your personal
data if required to do so by law, or by search warrant, subpoena or court order.
5. Cookies etc
(a) Use of cookies A cookie is a text-only string of information
that a website transfers to the cookie file of the browser on your computer's hard
disk so that the website can remember who you are. A cookie will typically contain
the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the "lifetime" of the cookie,
and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number. When you visit our website
we send you a cookie. Cookies may be used in the following ways: • To help us recognise
you as a unique visitor (just a number) when you return to our website and to allow
us to tailor content or advertisements to match your preferred interests or to avoid
showing you the same adverts repeatedly. • To compile anonymous, aggregated statistics
that allow us to understand how users use our site and to help us improve the structure
of our website. We cannot identify you personally in this way. Two types of cookies
may be used on this website; "session cookies", which are temporary cookies that
remain in the cookie file of your browser until you leave the site, and "persistent
cookies", which remain in the cookie file of your browser for much longer (though
how long will depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie).
(b) Use of web beacons Some of our website pages may contain electronic
images known as web beacons (sometimes known as clear gifs) that allow us to count
users who have visited these pages. Web beacons collect only limited information
which includes a cookie number, time and date of a page view, and a description
of the page on which the web beacon resides. We may also carry web beacons placed
by third party advertisers. These web beacons do not carry any personally identifiable
information and are only used to track the effectiveness of a particular campaign.
Because web beacons are the same as any other content request included in the recipe
for a web page, you cannot opt out or refuse them. However, where they are used
in conjunction with cookies they can be rendered ineffective by either opting out
of cookies or by changing the cookie setting on your browser.
(c) Third party advertising We may use a third party to serve advertisements
on our website. Cookies may be associated with these advertisements to enable the
advertiser to track the number of anonymous users responding to the campaign. We
do not have access to or control of cookies placed by third parties.
(d) Disabling/enabling cookies You have the ability to accept or
decline cookies by modifying the settings in your browser. However, you may not
be able to use all the interactive features of our site if cookies are disabled.
There are a number of ways to manage cookies. If you use different computers in
different locations you will need to ensure that each browser is adjusted to suit
your cookie preferences. Some modern browsers have a feature that will analyse website
privacy policies and allow a user to control their privacy needs. These are known
as "P3P" features (Privacy Preferences Platform). You can easily delete any cookies
that have been installed in the cookie folder of your browser. For example, if you
are using Microsoft Windows Explorer: • Open 'Windows Explorer' • Click on the 'Search'
button on the tool bar • Type "cookie" into the search box for 'Folders and Files'
• Select 'My Computer' in the 'Look In' box • Click 'Search Now' and double click
on the folders that are found • 'Select' any cookie file • Hit the 'Delete' button
on your keyboard If you are not using Microsoft Windows Explorer, then you should
select "cookies" in the "Help" function for information on where to find your cookie
folder. The Interactive Advertising Bureau is an industry body which develops standards
and guidelines to support online business processes. Its website at www.allaboutcookies.org gives
further details about cookies, web beacons and suchlike, and explains how they can
be managed and disabled.
