Privacy Policy
Kruger Products Limited ("Kruger Products") approaches its communications on the
Internet with respect for, and commitment to protecting, your privacy rights.
This privacy policy describes how we collect, protect, use and share information
gathered about you on the Kruger Products website (the "Kruger Products Site").
We hope that this disclosure will help increase your confidence in our site and
enhance your experience on the Internet. Kruger Products reserves the right to
alter this Privacy Policy from time to time and such changes will be effective
ten days following the date on which this Privacy Policy is revised and posted
on our site. We encourage you to visit this page from time to time to view our
most recent Privacy Policy.
What is personal information?
Personal information is any information about an identifiable person other than
the name, title, business address or telephone number of an employee of an
organization. Personal information collected by Kruger Products may include your
name, mailing address, telephone number, email address, age and other
information that may be required to administer promotions and provide you with
other services through the Kruger Products Site and other marketing channels.
Why does the Kruger Products Site collect personal information from you?
We collect personal information from you only for the purposes we identify to
you at or prior to the time we collect such personal information. We do not
collect any personal information when you access, surf or view the content on
the Kruger Products site.
For those few activities on our Site where the collection of personally
identifiable information is necessary (for example, when you contact us with a
question or when you participate in one of Kruger Products's online promotions),
you will know because the purposes for which your personal information is to be
used will be identified to you. For those activities, we may collect, for
example, your name, street address, telephone number, fax number, e-mail address
and postal code. We will not collect more information than is necessary.
Does Kruger Products collect or use information collected from you with
technology?
The Kruger Products Site collects some information about you using technology,
so it may not be readily apparent to you that it is being collected. For
instance, when you come to our Site, your IP address is collected so that we
know how many visits we have had by separate individuals. An IP address is often
associated with the place from which you enter the Internet like your Internet
Service Provider (ISP) or your firm or company. This information is not
personally identifiable. We also use a feature called "cookies" which identifies
your browser to us each time you visit our Site. None of the information
collected is personally identifiable. We may use and disclose this information
to affiliates and other third parties to measure the use of our Site and to
improve our Site.
How does Kruger Products use the personal information it has collected from
you?
Providing personal information is up to you, our visitor. We collect personally
identifiable information to enter you in contests and notify you of results, to
e-mail you with updates and news, to respond to your questions or comments, to
register you for certain features, and/or to send out brochures and other
information on our products or our company. We may ask visitors providing e-mail
addresses to let us know if they would like further information or updates from
us or our Site; only those who request it will receive follow-up e-mail or other
communications from us. In that case, we may also offer visitors an "opt-out"
option at any time they wish to cease receiving e-mails or other information
from us. We will only use such information for the purposes of (1) administering
certain programs as identified to you at the time of collection, and (2) in a
form where the information is no longer identifiable with you, for statistical
and marketing analyses.
To whom will Kruger Products provide your personal information?
Personal information is used solely by us. We will not disclose such
information, other than as follows:
(a) to third party service providers with whom Kruger Products has a
contractual agreement, which includes appropriate privacy standards, for the
purpose of (i) fulfilling promotional product requests and sending prizes to
winners of contests run by Kruger Products and contests run by third parties on
behalf of Kruger Products; (ii) performing functions such as data processing,
database services or information technology support; (iii) providing insurance
for Kruger Products product liability claims on behalf of Kruger Products; and
(iv) marketing or providing information about any of Kruger Products's products;
and
(b) to comply with any legal actions like a court order; to enforce our
Terms and Conditions of Use, Site or contest rules; or to protect the safety and
security of guests and our Site. We will let you know at the time the
information is collected if such third-party sharing is anticipated, will
identify the types of businesses with whom the information may be shared, will
describe the information we will share (like your mail or e-mail address) and
will only share data if you agree. We will share personal data only with those
who have agreed to follow policies that share our high standards of privacy.
Links and Disclaimer of Linked Sites
Please note that once you have clicked on a link on the Kruger Products Site,
you may leave the Kruger Products Site to a site which is no longer under the
control of Kruger Products, and to which our privacy policy no longer applies.
You must read the privacy policy, if any, of each linked site to see how your
personal information will be handled on their site.
Does Kruger Products collect personal information from children?
Protecting the privacy of children under the age of 13 is important to us. For
that reason, we never knowingly solicit, collect, store or disclose information
via our Sites from children who are under 13 years of age. No part of our Site
is structured to attract anyone under the age of 13. If a child under the age of
13 wishes to disclose to us personal information, he/she must provide us with
his/her parent's or legal guardian's e-mail address so that we can obtain
express consent. If a child has already provided us with personal information,
his/her parent or legal guardian may contact us for the purpose of correcting or
deleting such information.
What type of security does Kruger Products provide?
The security of all personal information collected through the Kruger Products
Site is of utmost importance to us. We have taken technical, contractual,
administrative and physical security steps to protect the personal information
collected from you on the Kruger Products Site with a level of security
appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal information collected. Our
security measures are periodically reviewed.
Who do I contact with questions or concerns about this privacy policy?
If you need further assistance, if you wish to access and correct any errors in
your personally identifiable information or would like to limit our use or
disclosure of your personal information, please contact the Kruger Products
