URUGUAY PRIVACY POLICY

 

Our Commitment to Privacy

 

Uruguay Steaks has created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate its ongoing commitment to privacy and to outline how it collects and uses information on its Web site.

 

Information Collection and Use

 

We will not provide or sell your personal information to third parties except to fulfill your requests for products or services or when we have your consent. 

 

Uruguay Steaks does not automatically collect any personally identifiable information, such as name, address, e-mail address, or phone number about users of its Web site.  We collect personally identifiable information only if voluntarily provided.  You may voluntarily provide us with this information when you register on our site, sign up for e-mail updates, make a purchase request, and/or submit comments and feedback.  We may collect and use personal information to respond to your queries.  We may also ask you to submit contact information for other people if you order a gift to be sent directly to the recipient.  To the extent that you provide us with such information, we will not provide or sell this information to any other company or organization. 

 

By voluntarily submitting such personal information for e-mail updates, you are consenting to receive e-mails from Uruguay Steaks from time to time regarding various sales, promotions, or events.  We do not share your e-mail addresses with other organizations for commercial purposes unless you “opt-in” to receive e-mail offers from specially selected marketing partners of Uruguay Steaks.  Our marketing partners may have different privacy policies than ours.  We encourage you to read their policies before responding to an offer. 

 

If, at any time, you do not wish to receive e-mail updates from Uruguay Steaks, you may send a message to remove@uruguaysteaks.com requesting removal from our e-mail list. 

 

If you provide us with your postal address, you may receive periodic mailings from us.  If you would rather not receive such mailings, please call or write to let us know.

 

We may use your personal information to fulfill your requests for products or services and to ship your order.  If you establish a credit account with us or our providers, we collect additional information, including billing information, credit card number and expiration date, and tracking information from checks or money orders.

 

Aggregate Information

 

Uruguay Steaks may use small text files called cookies to track user trends and improve your overall Web site experience.  A cookie is a piece of data containing non-personal information about the user and stored on the user’s hard drive. You may refuse cookies in your browser, but some of the features and services of the Web site may not function properly as a result.   

 

Uruguay Steaks reserves the right to track non-personal information about visitors to its Web site, for general purposes including, but not limited to, improving our services, marketing, advertising, or research purposes.  Non-personal information may include without limitation: the total number of visitors to the Web site, the number of visitors to each page of the Web site, the URL that the visitor has come from and goes to next (whether this URL is on its Web site or not), the Internet browser being used, the type of operating system used, the visitor’s location, the visitor’s IP address, and the goods and services purchased.  Such aggregate information may be used for site administration purposes, to analyze trends, to gather broad demographic information, and to help us learn which parts of our Web site users are visiting. 

 

Opt-Out

 

If we propose to use non-aggregate information for marketing purposes or to sell to third parties, we will notify users at the time we collect the information and allow them to opt-out of having the information used for those purposes.  In the event that we would seek to share information that was previously collected, we would notify such users via e-mail and allow them the option of opting out of having this information disclosed.

 

Disclosure

 

Uruguay Steaks may transfer personal information if Uruguay Steaks is acquired by or merged with another company.  In this event, Uruguay Steaks will notify you before your personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

 

Uruguay Steaks also reserves the right to release current or past user information to third parties for limited purposes in the event Uruguay Steaks believes that usage is:

 

i.                     in violation of this Agreement;

ii.                   used to commit unlawful acts, and/or

iii.                  required to be disclosed to prevent fraud or imminent harm or to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or legal process.

 

Information Security

 

Uruguay Steaks is committed to protecting your personal information from unauthorized access.  In order to safeguard your information, we update and test our technology on a regular basis, restrict access to your information internally, and require outside companies to whom we provide your information for marketing, servicing, or processing purposes to restrict the use of the information to those purposes.

 

Updating Personal Information

 

In order to protect our users’ personal information, we will ask you to identify yourself and the information to be accessed, corrected, or removed before processing your requests. 

 

Children

 

We do not knowingly collect or use personal information from children under 13 without containing verifiable consent from their parents.  We have no way of distinguishing the age of individuals who address our web site, and so we apply our same Privacy Policy to individuals of all ages.  If a child has provided us with personal information without parental or guardian consent, the parent or guardian should contact us to remove the information and opt out of promotional offers.
