PRIVACY POLICY

The Honey Baked Ham Company, LLC (together with our affiliates, “we,” “us,” and “our”) respects the privacy of your personal information.  We are committed to complying with this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”), which describes what information we collect about you and others, including how we collect it, how we use it, with whom we may share it and what choices you have regarding our use of your information.  This Privacy Policy is not a contract but rather provides our notice to you of our privacy practices. 

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected on our website located at https://honeybakedfranchise.com/ or any mobile or online offering that we control that links to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Website”), in the brick-and-mortar stores that we operate, through our call center, and otherwise when you contact us. 

Please note that we do not control, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to, the California-facing website https://shophoneybaked.com/ or any related mobile or online offering, or any brick-and-mortar stores located in California, which are all controlled by our unaffiliated licensee(s).  If you are a California resident you should be redirected to, or should otherwise navigate to, that website.  In the limited circumstances where we might collect data of California residents, please see section 4 below for a notice regarding your rights under applicable California law.     

The term “Personal Information,” as used in this Privacy Policy, means information that relates to or is reasonably capable of being associated with an individual. 

1.  What Personal Information We Collect

We collect Personal Information that you voluntarily provide to us through the Website, when you order our products, and when you make purchases at our brick-and-mortar stores.  This includes but may not be limited to your first and last names, company name, email address and password, mailing address, phone number, demographic information, and payment information.  We may use third-party providers to update and correct your personal information to ensure that your Personal Information that we store is accurate and complete.  We may also collect and confirm Personal Information when you contact us by email or telephone.  This allows us to protect your confidentiality by verifying your identity.  If you are a recipient of one of our products, we collect your name and delivery address, as provided to us by the person who ordered the product.

We also automatically collect certain technical information from your electronic device when you access the Website, as further described below. 

Purchasing Our Products And Registering On Our Website

When you make a purchase using a payment card, we collect information for processing and shipping your order, including your name, address, phone number, and payment card information, and the name, address and phone number of your intended recipient.  When you become a registered user of our Website, you may be able to choose to save your billing information and shipping information as part of your account.  You can view or change your account information at any time by logging in with your email address and password, or by emailing our Customer Service.

Cookies

When you access the Website, we and our third-party providers may place files known as “cookies” on your device.  Some cookies allow us and our third-party providers to store your preferences, including your selected U.S. state of residence, and including but not limited to log-in information, and ordering and shipping information.  Other cookies allow us and our third-party providers to passively gather certain information about your use of our Website, which may include gathering information for the following purposes: statistics collection and analysis, Website optimization, analytics (as described below), and market research.  We and our third-party providers may collect information that may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address, the operating system type used by your electronic device, browser type, and the address of a referring website, if any.  We collect this information to improve the quality of your visit to our Website, for security purposes, including for authentication, to facilitate Website navigation and to personalize your experience while visiting the Website.

If you choose not to accept certain cookies, you may not have access to certain features of our Website.  Your browser may be configured to reject cookies or notify you when a cookie is set.

Google Analytics

The Website may use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google, in order to better understand your use of our Website and how we can improve it.  Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit a website, what pages you visit when you do so, and what other websites you used prior to coming to such website.  Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit a website, rather than your name or other identifying information.  We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with your Personal Information.  Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit a website, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google.  Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the Website is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy.  Google utilizes the data collected to track and examine the use of the Website, to prepare reports on its activities and share them with other Google services.  To more fully understand how Google may use the data it collects on the Website, please review “How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services” (located here).

2. How We Use Your Personal Information

We and our third-party providers may collect and use Personal Information to operate the Website and deliver products, including to provide certain services and improve the user experience, address Website integrity or security issues, conduct research and analysis to maintain, protect, develop, improve and market our products, services, and the Website, and for any other lawful purposes.

We may also use your Personal Information to send you promotional materials.

Additionally, we may retain and use Personal Information to facilitate and otherwise address inquiries or requests regarding the Website or our products, or respond to your questions or requests for information about or from us.  We may also use Personal Information as necessary to ensure compliance with any of our policies and any applicable legal requirements.

We may aggregate your information, without identifying you personally, to obtain statistical and demographic background on our customers.

3. How We Share Your Personal Information

We may share your Personal Information as permitted or required by applicable legal requirements.  We engage third-party providers who may collect or receive your Personal Information on our behalf.  Such third-party providers perform functions such as payment processing, operating and supporting the Website, analyzing data, or performing marketing or consulting services.

We may also disclose Personal Information if we become subject to a subpoena or court order, or if we are otherwise legally required to disclose such information.  We may also use and disclose Personal Information to exercise our legal rights, or to take action regarding actual or suspected illegal or fraudulent activities or potential threats.

As we grow and develop our business, our corporate structure or organization might change, we may merge or otherwise combine with, or we or portions of our business might be acquired by, another company.  In any such transactions, Personal Information generally is, and should be expected to be, one of the transferred business assets.  Also, if any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is brought by or against us, your information may be considered a company asset that may be sold or transferred to third parties.

4. For California Residents Only

This portion of our Privacy Policy advises California residents of rights provided in the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”) and how to exercise those rights.

If you are a California resident, you may request certain information from or certain action by us, or you may authorize an agent to make such a request on your behalf.  We will seek to verify your identity and your agent’s authority when we receive an individual rights request from you or on your behalf to ensure the security of your Personal Information.

We do not, and do not intend to, sell Personal Information of California Residents and do not discriminate against you for exercising any CCPA rights, such as the access and deletion rights described above.
