Information collected

MyWebGrocer collects the details provided by you on registration together with information
we learn about you from your use of our service and your visits to our web site
and other sites accessible from them. We also collect information about the transactions
you undertake including details of payment cards used.
|
We may collect additional information in connection with your participation in any
promotions or competitions offered by us and information you provide when giving
us feedback or completing profile forms. We also monitor customer traffic patterns
and site usage which enables us to improve the services we provide.
|
Access to Retail Loyalty Card information
|
We will access the information recorded through the use of your retailer loyalty
program to help us improve our service to you and to make our communications more
relevant.
|
For instance, if you use our online grocery service, whenever you buy products at
your local grocery store using your loyalty card, we can automatically add it to
your "favorite products" list for the online service.
|
Use of your information and your preferences
|
We will use your information to provide and personalize our service. We will also
use your contact details to regularly communicate with you. We may use your information
to send you offers and news from MyWebGrocer and services or those of other carefully
selected companies which we think may be of interest to you. We may contact you
by post, email, telephone or fax for these purposes.
|
Once you have registered to use MyWebGrocer.com, you will be provided with access
to a "Contact Preferences" page that will allow you to tailor our commercial communications
to your preferences. To change your contact preferences simply click "Your Account"
in the top frame and click "Your Contact Preferences". If you do not want to receive

We like to hear your views to help us improve our service. From time to time, we
may contact you by post, email, telephone or fax to ask your opinions. Again, if

Please note that there may be instances where it may be necessary for us to communicate
with you, in any event, for administrative or operational reasons relating to our
service.
|
Disclosures of your information
|
Your information may be used by all MyWebGrocer companies. We will never pass your
personal data to anyone else, except for any successors to our business and the
suppliers that process data on our behalf both in the US and abroad. We may also
use and disclose information in aggregate (so that no individual customers are identified)
for marketing programs, advertisers, and partners.
|
MyWebGrocer displays targeted advertisements based on personal information. Advertisers
(including ad serving companies) may assume that people who interact with, view,
or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria for example, women ages 18-24
from a particular geographic area.
|
MyWebGrocer does not provide any personal information to the advertiser when you
interact with or view a targeted ad. However, by interacting with or viewing an
ad you are consenting to the possibility that the advertiser will make the assumption
that you meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad.
|
We may transfer information about you if MyWebGrocer is acquired by or merged with
another company. In this event, MyWebGrocer will notify you before information about
you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy by updating
this page.
|
Legal Disclaimer
|
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required
by law and when believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate,
prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations
involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of
MyWebGrocer terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.
|
Other web sites
|
Our web site may contain links to other web sites which are outside our control
and are not covered by this Privacy Policy. If you access other sites using the
links provided, the operators of these sites may collect information from you which
will be used by them in accordance with their privacy policy, which may differ from
ours.

Cookies
|
"Cookies" are small pieces of information sent by a web server to a web browser,
which enables the server to collect information from the browser. MyWebGrocer uses
cookies for a number of purposes, for instance to enable us to simplify the logging
on process for registered users, to help ensure the security and authenticity of
registered users, to provide the mechanisms for online shopping and to enable traffic
monitoring.
|
We use both session ID cookies and/or persistent cookies. We use session cookies
to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A session ID cookie expires when
you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended
period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided
in your Internet browser's "help" file. Persistent cookies also enable us to track
and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.
|
Most browsers allow you to turn off the cookie function. If you want to know how
to do this please look at the help menu on your browser. As described above this
will restrict the online MyWebGrocer services you can use.
|
Clear Gifs (Web Beacons)
|
We use clear gifs on our sites from Google Analytics and other 3rd party vendors.
This enables us to gauge the effectiveness of our services and marketing programs.
|
Security
|
The security of your personal information is very important to us. When you enter
sensitive information (such as a credit card number) on our order forms, we encrypt
that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). Once we received the
data it is immediately re-encrypted prior to storage. By default, payment card data
is permanently destroyed within 91 days of submission.
|
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information
submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission
over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore,
while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information,
we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
|
Changes in this Privacy Statement
|
We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review
it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here.
