Thank you for visiting our website, www.allenflavors.com (the “Site”). The Site is owned and operated by Allen Flavors Inc. (“Allen,” “Allen Flavors,” “AFI,” “we,” “our, “us”). We recognize the importance of privacy to you and are firmly committed to protecting your privacy when you visit the Site. As a result, we have instituted this website privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”), which applies only to the operation of the Site.
Allen Flavors is providing this notice to explain how we collect, use, disclose and protect the personal information that we collect from you in connection with your use of the Site. This Privacy Policy applies only to the use and collection of data collected by this Site and does not apply to any other data collected by us online or offline.

If you do not agree with this policy, please do not provide us any information and do not use the Site.
As used in this Privacy Policy, “we” includes Allen Flavors, its affiliates, and any third-party vendors we hire to assist in the administration of the Site, the collection, cataloging and/or analysis of data, and/or the processing or handling of any visitor transactions. These vendors are required to maintain the confidentiality of the user information and are prohibited from using it for any purpose other than as described in this Privacy Policy.
Information We Collect
Visitors may generally browse public portions of our website without providing any personal information. We may collect and store personally identifiable information on certain areas of this website. This personally identifiable information may include your name, company, mailing address, email address, and telephone number. Information of this type will not be collected unless you have agreed to provide it to us through the use of a form or other, similar data collection tool.
We may also collect other, non-personally identifiable information that becomes available to us as a result of your visit to the Site. This information includes, for example, your IP address, your Internet Service Provider, your web browser, your operating system, the type of device you are using, the domain name of the website which links you to our Site, the pages you visited, the average time spent on the Site, and the products searched for on the Site.
Because we are very interested in the successful dissemination of information through the Site, we will review analytics and visitor trends recorded on certain log files. In connection with such log files, analysis software will be used to generate reports which will allow us to determine how we can enhance your experience with our Site. This information will not be used to ascertain your identity or the substance of what you are viewing. The log files may be purged periodically, at our discretion, to maximize space on the server.

The information we learn from visitors helps us personalize and improve the Site and services that we offer through the Site. We use your information to respond to your queries and provide you with certain services and information pursuant to your requests.
We will not share or sell personal information with unaffiliated third parties (including marketers), except as set forth in this Privacy Policy, unless we have clearly requested and obtained your explicit consent.
Special Circumstances
Although unlikely, there may be circumstances where we may use or disclose your personally identifying information, such as: if required by government, courts, law enforcement or regulatory agencies; to protect and defend the rights of our employees or any other user of the Sites; as incident to a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution, bankruptcy or similar event; under circumstances we believe reasonably necessary to protect the personal safety of our employees, users of the Sites, or the public; or to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our published policies. You cannot opt out of disclosing personal information if required by court order.
Cookies
We use cookies on our Site. Cookies are small text files that your web browser leaves on your hard drive to recognize you as a repeat user of our Site, track your use of our Site and target advertising. This allows for personalization of certain aspects of your visit. Information gathered from cookies in this way is only used on an aggregate basis; unless a visitor specifically provides their identity to us, e.g., through an online form or sending us correspondence from the Site, we will not know the identification of individual visitors. We may use cookies to store preferences; record session information; develop information about Site visitors’ preferences and interests; record past activity at a website in order to provide better service when you return to our Site; or customize web page content based on information you voluntarily provide.
You can disable cookies using your Internet browser settings. Please consult your browsers’ help function for information on how to disable cookies. Note that if you disable cookies, certain features of our Site may not function properly.

Security
We have security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. While we strive to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-parties from intercepting information. You should not assume or expect that any communication that you transmit to us (such as personally identifiable or other data, questions or answers, comments, or suggestions) is confidential. Allen Flavors shall not be liable or responsible if any information about you is intercepted and used by an unintended recipient.
