Privacy Policy |
Innovation River LLC ("Company") respects and values its Users' privacy. This Privacy Policy describes the information Company collects from Users when they visit www.butter-baron.com ("Website"), how Company uses that information, and under what circumstances Company discloses it. This Privacy Policy should be read in conjunction with the Terms of Service also available on the Website at https://www.butter-baron.com/terms-of-use.
1. Changes to Privacy Policies. Company's Privacy Policy is subject to change from time to time, so Company suggests that User reviews the current Privacy Policy at the start of each visit to the Website. Unless Company clearly expresses otherwise, Company will use Information in accordance with the Privacy Policy under which User Information, as defined below, was collected. USER IS HEREBY ADVISED THAT USER'S CONTINUED USE OF THE PLATFORM CONSTITUTES USER'S ACCEPTANCE OF ANY AMENDMENTS TO AND THE MOST RECENT VERSION OF THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT AND THE WEBSITE'S TERMS OF SERVICE.
2. Information Company Collects. When User uses the Website, Company may receive and collect certain information. The information that Company may receive and collect depends on what User does when it visits the Website.
a. Automatically Collected Information. Some information is automatically received and sometimes collected from User when User visits the Website. This information may include some or all of the following items: (i) the name of the domain and host from which User accesses the Internet, including the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the computer User is using and the IP address of User's Internet Service Provider; (ii) the type and version of Internet browser software User uses and its operating system; (iii) the date and time User accesses the Website; (iv) the length of User's stay and the specific pages, images, video or forms that User accesses while visiting the site; (v) the Internet address of the website from which User linked directly to the Website, and if applicable, the search engine that referred User and any search strings or phrases that User entered into the search engine to find the Website; and (vi) demographic information concerning the country of origin of User's computer and the language(s) used by it. Company uses this information to monitor Website usage, assess its performance, ensure technological compatibility with Users' computers, and understand the relative importance of the information provided on the Website. Company may also use this data to conduct statistical analyses on Users' usage patterns and other aggregated data.
b. Information Collected via Cookies. "Cookies" are small files or records that are placed on User's computer's hard drive to distinguish User from other visitors to the Website. The use of cookies is a standard practice among websites to collect or track information about users’ activities while using websites. Generally, a cookie may enable a website owner to track how a visitor navigates through the website and the areas in which visitors show interest. This is analogous to a traffic report: it tracks trends and behaviors but does not identify individuals. Information gathered in this fashion may include date and time of visits, pages viewed, time spent at the Website, and the website visited just before and just after a visit to the Website. Cookies can be set to expire: (i) on a specified date; (ii) after a specific period of time; (iii) when a transaction has been completed; or (iv) when a User turns off his/her Internet browser. A Cookie that is erased from memory when a visitor's Internet browser closes is called a "session" cookie whereas Cookies which expire based on a time set by the Web server are called "persistent" cookies. The Website may use both "session cookies" and "permanent cookies." Internet browsers are typically set to accept Cookies by default. User can choose to have its browser warn User every time a Cookie is being sent to User or User can turn off Cookie placements. If User refuses Cookies, there may be parts of the Website which may not function properly.
c. Information User May Actively Submit Through the Website. User Information is information that could personally identify User: for example, User's name, address, phone number, birth date, social security number, and e-mail address. For some of the browsing on the Website, Company neither requires nor collects User Information. User can browse the Website and take as much time as User wants to review Company's products without having to submit such User Information. In the following instances, however and without limitation, User will be required to submit User Information: (i) when User wants to contact Company via electronic means or website submissions; or (ii) when User registers an account on the Website; (iii) when User joins Company's email lists; (iv) when User purchases Company’s products; or (v) as necessary to process transactions entered into via the Website. E-mail or other forms of electronic communication, including website submission, are inherently not a secure and/or confidential means of communication.
3. Personal Information About Children. The Website is targeted primarily for use by adults. Company does not target or create special areas for use by children. Accordingly, Company does not knowingly collect age identifying information, nor does Company knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13 years. However, Company hereby advise all visitors to the Website under the age of 13 not to disclose or provide any personally identifiable information on the Website. In the event that Company discovers that a child under the age of 13 has provided personally identifiable information to Company, in accordance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (please see the Federal Trade Commission's website at http://www.onguardonline.gov/articles/0031-protecting-your-childs-privacy-online for more information about this Act), Company will delete the child's personally identifiable information from Company's files to the extent technologically possible.
4. Electronic Communications. When User sends an email to Company, provides User's email address to Company, or calls Company, User is communicating with Company electronically and consents to receive communication from Company electronically. Company may retain the content of such email(s), User's email address, phone calls, and Company’s responses thereto in order to further service User's needs. Company may use the data that User provides to send User emails and SMS text messages regardless of whether fees may apply.
5. How Company Uses and Shares User Information. Company may use User Information that User actively submits to better assist User when User visits or contact Company again and to send User special offers which may be of interest to User. Company does this by general marketing communications for Company's services, including by regular mail and e-mail, (collectively, "Marketing Communications"). Unless User "opts-out" through opportunities available to User through Company's Marketing Communications, Company may send User Marketing Communications. Except where Company otherwise obtains User's express permission, Company may share User Information with third-parties only under the limited circumstances stated below:
a. Information is subject to disclosure in response to judicial or other governmental subpoenas, warrants, and court orders served on Company in accordance with their terms, as otherwise required by applicable law, or in response to requests by law enforcement.
b. Information is subject to disclosure to protect Company's rights or property, protect its legitimate business interests, to enforce the provisions of Company's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, and/or to prevent harm to User or others.
c. Information may be disclosed: to carefully selected third-party service providers so that they may provide services to User; to provide customer service; to send or email Marketing Communications; to maintain Company's promotions, database, and other programs; to monitor the activity of the Website; to conduct surveys; and to process transactions.
d. Information may be disclosed and transferred if Company or its business is sold or offered for sale to another Company or person(s), if a petition for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Laws is filed by or against us, or if Company becomes subject to an order of appointment of a trustee or receiver.
6. Linking to Third-Party Websites. When User click on links on the Website that take User to third-party websites, User may be subject to the third-party website's privacy policies. While Company supports the protection of privacy on the Internet, Company cannot be responsible for the actions of any third-party websites. Company encourage User to read the posted privacy policies of any and every website User visits, whether User is linking from the Website or browsing on its own.
7. Access to and Managing User Information. Company believes it is important for User to be able to: (i) find out what Information User has provided to Company through the Website; (ii) update User Information; and (iii) "opt out" of receiving future Company Communications. To inquire about User Information, update User Information, or "opt" out of receiving future Company Communications, User may do one of the following:
a. Send an e-mail with User's request and current contact information to butter@butter-baron.com.
b. Send a request in writing with User's current contact information to: Innovation River LLC ATTN: Butter Baron Privacy 2010 W. Fulton St. F239 Chicago, IL 60612.
c. If User sends an e-mail or letter request, User should include its full name, address, phone number and e-mail address and indicate the specific nature of User's request. If User wants to "opt in" or "opt out" of receiving Company Communications, specifically what type of Company Communication (e.g., e-mail or direct mail) User wishes to receive or stop receiving. This will ensure Company identifies User correctly in Company's systems and accurately processes User's request. Company will take appropriate steps to implement User's request, but due to production, mailing and system timelines, it may take up to ten (10) business days for e-mails or thirty (30) calendar days for standard mail. Until that change takes effect, User may still receive or not receive Company Communications.
d. "Opting-out" of Company Communications may prevent Company from providing certain services which may be necessary for User's use of the Website or services provided thereon.
8. What User Needs to Do to Protect its Information. User has several options when deciding how it can best protect User Information. One option is simply not to volunteer it. As stated above, this approach would allow User to still visit the Website, although it will prevent User, for example, from utilizing services provided via the Website or providing Company with User's comments or questions relating to the Website. The Federal Trade Commission's website, www.ftc.gov, also offers useful information about how to protect personally identifiable information provided to a website.
9. What to Do About Suspected Violations of This Privacy Statement. If at any time User believes that Company has not adhered to the policies and principles set forth in this Privacy Statement, please notify Company using the contact information provided in Section 7. Company will make all commercially reasonable efforts to promptly respond to such concerns.
10. Do-Not-Track. To the extent do-not-track implementations from User's browser(s) prevent or impede the delivery of products or communications provided through www.butter-baron.com, those do-not-track implementations are not honored.
11. Questions or Comments. If User have any questions or comments concerning Company's Privacy Policy, please contact us using the information provided in Section 7.
