Privacy Policy

DEL MONTE FRESH PRODUCE COMPANY - OUR PRIVACY POLICY

Del Monte Fresh Produce Company, along with our parents, subsidiaries and affiliates (DMFP), is deeply committed to safeguarding your privacy. As such, we ask that you please read this privacy policy before using our web site, as your use of our site constitutes your acceptance of these terms.

Personal Information: We do not automatically collect personal information -- like names, addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers and e-mail addresses -- from our visitors. However, visitors to our site may choose to volunteer this type of information when they register as members, make purchases and submit online job applications. While we may use this personal visitor information as a basis for enhancing our site, we never sell or transfer it to third parties.

Since DMFP is a global company, our web site attracts users from all over the world. Therefore, if you choose to give us personal information, it may be sent electronically to servers outside of the country where it was originally entered, and it may be used, stored and processed in these countries. Regardless of where your personal information is directed, DMFP takes steps to ensure that it is treated securely. Unfortunately, however, no Internet data transmission can be guaranteed to be 100 percent secure.

You should also remember that when you voluntarily disclose personal information on a "bulletin board" or in a chat area, that information could be collected and used by other web surfers, resulting in unsolicited messages from other parties. In addition, our site may contain links to other sites. While we make every effort to link only to sites that share our respect for privacy, we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of other sites.

Non-Personal Information: Our servers automatically collect non-personal information, such as the type of operating system or web browser used by each of our visitors. We use this data to provide an enhanced online experience and to track the aggregate number of visitors to our site. In line with the rest of our privacy policy, we do not sell or transfer any non-personal visitor information to third parties. Rather, we retain it and may use it as a basis for making improvements to our site. Remind us who you are so we can access your account information and give you better, more personalized service. The cookie that enables this is set when you register or "Sign In" and is modified when you "Sign Out" of certain parts of our service.

Estimate our audience size. Each browser accessing our site is given a unique cookie, which is then used to track repeat usage and calculate the amount of usage by registered vs. unregistered users. We use this data to help us target our advertisements to users who are most likely to be interested in them.

Track your progress and number of entries in some of our promotions, sweepstakes and contests. When a DMFP promotion uses cookies, the information written to the cookie indicates the player's progress through the promotion, and may be used to track entries, submissions and status in prize drawings.

Measure certain traffic and visiting patterns in the aggregate. We use this research to understand how our visitors' habits are similar or different from one another so that we can make each new experience on our web site a better one. We may use this information to personalize content, banners and promotions that you and other users will see on our site.

We consider your privacy and the security of your transactions while in a secure portion of our site to be of the utmost importance. Again, while we may use personal visitor information as a basis for enhancing our site, we never sell or transfer it to third parties. We also use the latest encryption technology to keep your personal data safe. All your ordering information is encrypted using a secure server for maximum security. Your credit card and billing information cannot be read as it travels to our ordering system. At DMFP, we take every measure to ensure that both your privacy and security are fully protected.

Children: To protect the interests of children who visit our site, it's our policy not to solicit or post any information from visitors under 13 years old without the consent of a parent or guardian. In the event that a child younger than 13 submits information to our web site and we become aware of it, we will delete the information. What's more, we do not actively seek demographic or preference information from children, we will not send direct e-mail offers to users who indicate they are younger than 13, and we do not knowingly or intentionally disclose personal information regarding children to third parties.

Contact Us: This web site and its contents are owned and operated by DMFP. We reserve the right to change this privacy policy at any time, and we will post updates to the policy on our web site. If you have any questions about our privacy policy, please contact us at:
