FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q1: What information does Mighty Foodz collect and how is it collected?
We collect certain information automatically, like IP addresses, browser types, referring Web sites, and access times, when consumers visit our site. This “Web log” information is not personally identifiable, but provides important information on the number of visitors, and what areas or features they like best. Our visitors can review our site and participate in many features without disclosing any personally identifiable information.
Mighty Foodz collects personally identifiable information including, but not limited to, name, home address and email address from our visitors on a voluntary basis. We do not require this information for customers to access any of our sites. However, to participate in some of the programs or features we offer, customers may have to provide personally identifiable information. We request only the personally identifiable information we feel we need to offer the service or feature or to fulfill requests. For example, we need your name and email address to add you to an email update list. We may require a home address to enter you in a contest or sweepstakes so that we can send prize notifications and prizes. We may request feedback from our visitors in the form of surveys, questionnaires or our feedback forms on their preferences and reaction to our products, including demographic information, like age, gender and interests, to help us better serve you. We ask for credit card information where we offer online shopping opportunities.
We may sometimes offer programs with other sponsors where personally identifiable information is shared with both Mighty Foodz and a business partner. In those instances, we will provide you with notice at the time of any registration about the program and will offer you a choice about sharing the information. If you choose to NOT have your information shared, your information will not be shared, and you will not be able to participate in or receive the benefits or services provided by our business partners.
We use hosted software to provide us with data collection and reporting information regarding our customers' activities on our Web sites. When you visit our Web sites, this software may attempt to set cookies (i.e., small data files that a site sends to your computer to make your access easier and/or faster) on our behalf and may receive information about your browsing activity (e.g., pages viewed, etc). For more information on cookies, please see Q5.
Q2: How does Mighty Foodz use the personally identifiable information we collect?
Except as explained below, personally identifiable information shared with Mighty Foodz will only be used to fulfill your requests, to improve our site and our products, to provide customized features and offerings, and for other internal marketing purposes, and will not be sold or provided to third parties. If you decide to provide personally identifiable information in order to participate in a special area of our site, such as registering for email updates or for a special program or contest, we will use the information you provide for that purpose. We may also ask if you would like to receive information about other products available from our company. Only visitors who ask to receive this information will receive it.
Anonymous, aggregate data about site usage and other features may be shared with third parties. Mighty Foodz reserves the right to use or disclose any information as needed to satisfy any law, regulation or legal request, to conduct investigations of consumer complaints or possible breaches of law, to protect our site, our property, or the safety or rights of any visitor or third party, to fulfill your requests, to cooperate in a legal investigation, or in connection with the sale of our business or one of our brands without notice or consent. For our practices regarding children under the age of thirteen, please see Q4.
Q3: Does Mighty Foodz share the personally identifiable information that has been collected?
On our site, personally identifiable information received from any visitor will only be used for the purpose for which it was provided or for internal marketing purposes and will not be sold or provided to third parties, except for our technical and fulfillment agents who help us make the site available and provide the services and products on our site. Those firms have agreed to adhere to our Privacy Policy and practices.
In some circumstances, we may partner with another company to provide certain content, programs or features. Examples include certain promotions, loyalty programs, sweepstakes or contests. In those situations, when you provide personally identifiable information about you or your child, it may be sent directly to Mighty Foodz and partner companies, or we may share the information with partner companies. In these circumstances, we will always let you know whether, in addition to Mighty Foodz , another company is collecting information or if we need to share your personally identifiable information with a partner company to provide the program, service or feature. We (and any partner companies) will provide a link to the respective online privacy policies to support your informed decision about whether to share your (or your child’s) information. Although we only partner with companies who agree to adopt privacy policies that are consistent with our own values and policy, and are in compliance with COPPA, we cannot be held responsible for the policies or offerings of any third party, and urge you to review their policies and terms and conditions as they may vary.
Q4: Does Mighty Foodz collect information from Children under 13?
In communicating with children online, Mighty Foodz is especially mindful of the need to protect the personal privacy of children under the age of 13. Mighty Foodz does not condition a child’s participation in an activity on disclosing more information than is reasonably necessary in order to participate. We include notices on this site requiring children under age 13 to get permission from a parent or legal guardian before providing any personally identifiable information. We may collect a child’s first name and email address without a parent’s consent, but only to respond to a one-time question or request, and we promptly delete this information after we respond. Where a child under 13 signs up for a newsletter or other activity requiring multiple online contacts, we may ask the child for a parent or legal guardian’s email address so we can notify them and get their permission or give them the opportunity to opt out.
If we need more than this limited information, we require verifiable consent from a parent or legal guardian first via a method that meets COPPA guidelines. We may then collect additional personally identifiable information from a child such as a last name and home address. This information helps us to personalize special offers, sweepstakes, contests and games – and to offer other activities we think will be of interest to our consumers under the age of thirteen.
When registration is for a program sponsored by Mighty Foodz and a partner company, we will disclose this fact at the time of registration. We will not share information about your child with a partner company without your consent. Partner companies may ask you to provide additional information, such as registration or subscriber information related to their sites. In some instances, the personally identifiable information you provide for you and your child must be shared with partner companies to fulfill requests. Mighty Foodz may also offer an opt-in feature when a parent or guardian registers their child for such a program that allows the parent and/or child to receive e-mails from Mighty Foodz or one of our partner companies. You will always have a choice about how your child’s personally identifiable information is used. For information on changing or deleting your personally identifiable information, please see Q8.
Q5: Does Mighty Foodz use “cookies” or other tools?
Yes, Mighty Foodz uses “Session Cookies,” small data files that a site sends to your computer. Our cookies allow our site to remember important information that will make your use of the site more enjoyable, efficient and useful; they do not contain personally identifiable information. We use cookies and IP addresses to obtain non-personal information from online visitors and also to provide registered users with a customized, personalized, online experience. They can, for example, help to give you faster access to pages you have already visited, allow you to personalize your pages, and help you to participate in some activities or events on the site. We also use cookies to determine how many people visit our site, and which features are most useful and popular and which may need improvement. We may also use session cookies to age-screen visitors for COPPA compliance purposes. We may also use another technology, called clear GIFs or web beacons, to provide us with other important anonymous information, such as when an email has been opened.
If you don’t want cookies, you can turn off all cookies or have your computer notify you when cookies are being sent by following the instructions for your particular Web browser.
Q6: What type of security does Mighty Foodz provide?
Mighty Foodz uses its best efforts to make sure all information received from our online visitors is secure from unauthorized access and use. All personally identifiable information from our customers is protected by our security measures, which are reviewed regularly. Mighty Foodz also requires agents used by Mighty Foodz for fulfillment and technical services to sign confidentiality agreements protecting your information.
Mighty Foodz cares about the safety and security of your credit card transactions or shareholder information and uses 124-bit SSL (“Secure Sockets Layer”) when you provide your credit card or other similar sensitive personal information to us online. SSL is the industry standard security protocol which makes it difficult for others to intercept your information online. You should keep in mind, however, that no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure and any information disclosed online can potentially be collected and used by parties other than the intended recipient.
Q7: Does Mighty Foodz provide links to other sites?
The Mighty Foodz site may contain links to other sites. We make every effort only to link to Web sites that share our high standards of decency, fairness, and integrity. We try our best to ensure that these links are safe for children, but the privacy and data collection practices on any linked Web sites are entirely separate from Mighty Foodz and are not covered by this Online Privacy Policy. Mighty Foodz shall not be responsible for any failure on the part of any linked Web sites to comply with any privacy policy posted on the Web site, or any contractual or other legal obligations to which the operators of such Web site may be subject. In addition, other Web sites, which may contain material not suitable for children, may also link to the Mighty Foodz Web sites without Mighty Foodz knowledge or consent. Mighty Foodz has no responsibility for the content, policies or actions of these Web sites. Children should always check with a parent, guardian or other adult before linking to any new sites.
Q8: How can I review the information Mighty Foodz has stored about members of my family and how can I change or update this information?
You can review, update, change or delete any or all of your personal information. If you have any concerns about this information or need assistance, you can contact us by calling 1-866-298-6299 Monday through Friday during business hours, or emailing us at mighty@mightyfoodz.com.
