This website is owned and operated by Kraft Foods UK Ltd, Kraft Foods Ireland Ltd along with Kraft Foods Schweiz AG, Bellerivestrasse 203, Postfach 1531, CH-8032 Zurich, subsidiaries of Kraft Foods Inc ("Kraft/Kraft Foods"). Here at Kraft, we recognize that many visitors to our site are concerned about the information they provide to us, and how we treat that information. So we've developed this Privacy Policy to address those concerns. We may update this Policy from time to time, so please check in regularly.
Types of Information We Collect Personally-identifiable information relates to an individual - e.g., name, address, telephone number, picture, email address, credit card number, etc. We only collect personally-identifiable information from individuals who provide it to us voluntarily and knowingly, such as by registering at our site, or by providing name and address information and requesting follow-up contacts from us or ordering product. We don't require you to register or provide this information to us in order to view our site or have access to its content. You will only be required to provide this information if you wish to order product. Aggregate information relates to such things as how many consumers visit the site, which pages they access, what information they download, the type of web browser and operating system you use, the name of your Internet Service Provider (e.g., AOL), and so on. When you visit our site, we automatically collect this information, and combine it with similar information collected about all other visitors. This information does not enable us to identify you as an individual. By collecting this information, we learn how to best tailor our website to our visitors. How Information is Collected We also collect aggregate, non-personal information on an ongoing basis when you view our website. The collection of this non-personal information is done either through "cookie" technology or with "web beacons" (also called 'single-pixel gifs'), as explained below. Cookies Why we use cookies When you view our website we may place a "cookie" on your computer. Temporary cookies are used for purposes such as counting the number of visits to our sites. These temporary cookies are eliminated when you exit your browser. A permanent cookie may also be stored on your computer by your browser. When you log in, this type of cookie tells us whether you've visited us before or if you are a new visitor. The cookie doesn't obtain any personal information about you or provide us with any way to contact you, and the cookie doesn't extract any information from your computer. We do use the cookie to help us identify site features and information in which you have the greatest interest, so that we can provide more of what you may want. The "help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Remember, though, that cookies allow you to take full advantage of all of Kraft's newest website features. More information about cookies may be found at www.allaboutcookies.org.. Disabling/Enabling Cookies What can I do to manage cookies stored on my computer? 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 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.

For example, a website may offer its contents in different languages. On your first visit, you may choose to have the content delivered in French and the site may record that preference in a persistent cookie set on your browser. When you revisit that site it will use the cookie to ensure that the content is delivered in French. A demonstration from www.allaboutcookies.org. showing how a persistent cookie might be used. You can decide whether to allow your browser to accept these types of cookies by changing the settings. For more information, please go to the manage cookies section of www.allaboutcookies.org.

Competitions, Free Prize Draws and Promotions Our site sometimes includes notices of promotions we are conducting, and we may permit you to enter electronically in some cases. If that occurs, we will use the information you provide for the purpose of conducting the promotion (e.g., to contact you if you're a winner). Within a reasonable time after the conclusion of the promotion, the personal information will be deleted from our database, unless you've agreed to permit us to keep it and use it to contact you again. Questionnaires and Surveys How We Use Your Personal Information In the email section of our site, we ask for some personally-identifiable information, such as your name and phone number. We use this information only if we need to contact you directly because our attempts to contact you by email were unsuccessful. We don't use your email address for any purpose other than responding to the message you've sent, unless we have your permission. We also use personal information about you to improve our marketing and promotional efforts; to statistically analyse website usage; and to improve our features and content. We may also use your personal information to deliver content that is customised to your interests as we best understand them from the information you've provided to us and your activities on the site. This customised content may include such things as recipes, banners, product information, and promotions. We do not collect personal information automatically, but we may combine non-personal information collected automatically (through cookies) with your previously submitted personal information. Kraft's primary goal in collecting personal information is to give you a meaningful and customised experience while you are using our websites and interactive services. Advertising Partners Third Parties Who Provide Support Services to Kraft Data Sharing and Transfer There may be times when we share aggregate information about our visitors (for example, the percentage of male and female visitors to our site) with advertisers, business partners, sponsors, and other third parties in an effort to customize or enhance the content and advertising of our site for our users. We may also aggregate data from web log files (such as your web browser, operating system, pages visited, etc.) to understand how users navigate the site and what features are most popular. Links to Other Kraft Sites This site may provide access to other Kraft websites. You should check the site policies applicable to such websites as given differences in application and functionality the Terms of Use and Privacy Policies may be different. Links to Other Sites Choice and Control Important Note to Children Children's Privacy Policy We may from time to time offer promotions in these areas of our website, such as a competitions or free prize draws. In those cases, we may permit the child to enter with the permission of his/her parent or guardian. If the parent permits the child's participation in the promotion and the child wins, we contact the parent (not the child) for further personal information needed for any prize delivery. We do not use the child's personal information for any purpose other than administration and completion of the promotion, we do not use the information to build a database and we do not share the information with third parties (other than support service companies as described above or business partners with whom we are clearly running the promotion). We delete both the child's and the parent's personal information from our database within a reasonable time after the conclusion of these promotions, unless the parent has given permission for us to retain the information in our files. We also might permit a child to send us an email, or to send an email to a friend through our site. We will respond to or deliver these emails, but we do not store the names, email addresses, or the emails themselves in our operational database. We do not maintain this information, nor do we share it with third parties (other than support service companies as described above). Upon proper identification, any parent can review any personal information we have collected from their child, if we are still maintaining the information in our operational database. They may also request that the information be deleted from our database, and refuse to permit further collection or use of their child's information. If you are a parent and wish to exercise these rights, please contact the Online Team as described below. How To Contact Us
