The effective date of this notice and any revised or changed notice may be found on this page, on the top left hand corner of the notice.

Information We Collect
The Safe + Fair web site allows you to order products, subscribe to our blog or newsletter, and may allow you to enter contests or participate in promotions. Sometimes we need personally identifiable information in order to provide you with the products and services you request.
The types of personally identifiable information that may be collected to serve you include, but are not limited to: name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, credit card information and product interests or purchases. Because payment is through a third party, we will not see your credit card number or banking information.
We also may collect certain computer information when you visit many of our web pages such as the type of browser you are using, the type of operating system you are using and the domain name of your Internet service provider.
We may collect and aggregate data about your usage of the site, and we shall be the sole owner of such information.
The Safe + Fair Food Company web site may contain or offer contests or promotions which may be governed by a separate set of rules that describe the contest or promotion, and may have eligibility requirements such as certain ages or geographic area restrictions. For certain promotions, only persons who provide us with requested personally identifiable information will be able to participate.
It is your responsibility to read the rules of our contests and promotions to determine whether your registration, entry, or participation is valid or restricted and to determine your requirements in connection with the applicable contest or promotion.
If you wish to change your personal information that you provided, you can access your account and make any changes.
Use of Collected Information
We will never use your information for purposes outside those you request or initiate, nor sell it to any third parties. We may use the information you provide about yourself to fulfill your requests for our products, to respond to your inquiries about offerings, to offer you other products we believe may be of interest to you, and as we describe in this policy.
We may use information that you provide about others to enable us to send gifts or cards per transactions you initiate. From time to time, we also may use this information to offer our products to them via e-mail or U.S. mail.
We sometimes use the computer information that we collect to improve the design and content of our web site. We also may use this information in the aggregate to analyze site usage, as well as to offer you products.
We will disclose information we maintain when required to do so by law, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. We also may disclose such information in response to a law enforcement agency's request.
We may disclose personally identifiable information you provide to third parties if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) complete the sales/donation transaction, such as providing your shipping information to our carrier; (b) enforce the Terms and Conditions; (c) respond to claims that any information you provide violates the rights of third parties; (d) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Safe + Fair, our users and/or the public; or (e) in relation to the sale, assignment, transfer or acquisition of all or substantially all of our assets or shares by a third party.
Agents and contractors of The Safe + Fair Food Company who have access to personally identifiable information are required to protect this information in a manner that is consistent with our privacy policies.
Our policy is to protect the confidentiality of the individually identifiable information that you provide, and we limit access to that information only to those with a need to know. We cannot assure you that the personally identifiable information that we collect will never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with our privacy policies. Inadvertent disclosures may result, for example, when third parties misrepresent their identities in asking the site for access to personally identifiable information about themselves for purposes of correcting possible factual errors in the data..
The Safe + Fair Food Company will not use or transfer personally identifiable information provided to us in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you with an opportunity to opt out of these unrelated uses.
Use of Cookies
To enhance your online experience, we use cookies or web beacons — text files or small pieces of code placed in your browser — to store your preferences or to collect anonymous and aggregate advertising metrics, such as counting page views, promotion views or advertising responses.
Cookies and beacons do not tell us your e-mail address or other personally identifiable information unless you choose to provide this information. However, once you choose to furnish the site with personally identifiable information, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie.
We use these strategies to improve our content, offerings, and marketing. We may use cookies to personalize your experience at our web pages. We also may use cookies to offer you products or services of interest to you. You may set your browser to block cookies per your preferences. Please note that blocking cookies will lead to a less personalized experience on our web site and may block certain functionality.
For the purpose of enabling better website design and a better user experience, we use third-party analytics. The Safe + Fair Food Company maintains its existing standards in regards to the sharing and disclosure of information, security and privacy safeguards for the data, and the data retention policy, each described below. One analytics tool we employ is Google Analytics (a web service by Google, Inc.), to track site traffic and provide aggregate reports of how the public interacts with our website. Session cookies are employed by Google Analytics in the form of client-side JavaScript code. In utilizing this analytics service, Google Analytics analyzes website usage information automatically upon visits to The Safe + Fair Food Company website(s). Users who do not wish to have their visit information collected by Google Analytics may opt-out by downloading a browser extension or by disabling cookies in their browser settings. Opting-out of web measurements will still permit users to access the full web site of The Safe + Fair Food Company, with all included information and functionality.
Tracking
We will not respond to Web browser “do not track” signals. If you would like additional information about online tracking and various opt-out mechanisms, please see http://donottrack.us/
Because we link to social media sites, and from time to time may include third-party advertisements, other parties may collect your personally identifiable information about your online activities over time and across different web sites when you visit this site.
In addition, we use Google AdWords, so we are advertising the site online through a form of tracking called remarketing. Third-party vendors, including Google, show our ads on various sites across the Internet, and use cookies to serve you ads based on your past visits to this Site. You can opt out of Google's use of cookies by visiting Google's Ads Settings at https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.
Please note that not all tracking will stop even if you delete cookies.
Encryption
We use no encryption (data scrambling) on certain portions of the site, but use encryption on portions where you are making purchases and providing credit card information. When you are on any web site that asks you for confidential information, you should check to see if the information being transmitted is encrypted in order to increase the security of your information. Keep in mind that there is no such thing as perfect security.
Third-Party Sites and Sponsors
Our web site may contain links to other sites with information practices that differ from ours. We may offer contests, promotions, and other activities or offerings that are sponsored or co-sponsored by or presented with identified third parties.
By virtue of visiting these sites or your participation in such activities or offerings, the personally identifiable information you voluntarily submit may be provided to both The Safe + Fair Food Company and third parties. We have no control over the third parties' use of this information.
Security
We have implemented a variety of physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards designed to help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect.
