Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us. This policy discloses how
AdvancePierre Foods, Inc. ("AdvancePierre Foods") collects,
protects, uses and shares personal information gathered about you,
if any.
Information Collection / Use
AdvancePierre Foods collects information from our users at several
different points on this Web site (this "Site"). For example, we
may collect personal information about you. Personal information
is defined to include your name, home address, home telephone
number, e-mail address, Social Security Number and/or
identification number, financial information, and
employment-related information such as may be found on resumes,
applications, background verification information, or in
employment references. In addition, we automatically collect
non-personal information such as your browser type, operating
system, IP address, and site usage information, in order to
evaluate and improve the performance of this Site.
We collect and use information for the specific purposes for which
you provide it, such as when you request information from us. We
also collect and use information:
- to enhance your experience at this Site;
- to perform site administration and technical support;
-
to notify you about our new and existing content, events,
properties or services;
- to enable you to enter promotional campaigns;
-
to create aggregate information about demographics and usage
patterns.
We may also use third party providers to help us contact you or to
support this Site and services, and for these limited purposes, we
may share your personal information with our providers. By
registering for and/or using this Site, you consent to our sharing
of your personal information with our third party providers for
these limited purposes.
We may disclose personal information when required by law to do
so, or at the request of a law enforcement agency. We may also
disclose personal information when we believe in good faith that
disclosure is necessary or appropriate to avoid violation of, or
interference with, the terms of use of this Site or our services,
or with our proprietary rights, or the rights of third parties.
We will not sell, share, or rent this personal information to
other third parties, and we will not otherwise disclose personal
information to third parties without your explicit permission,
except as disclosed in this privacy policy.
We may use aggregate information to measure general site usage
patterns and characteristics of our user base, and we may include
such aggregate information about our audience in reports to our
partners or vendors. We may also disclose aggregated user
statistics (for example, 28% of our members live in Indiana)
without your permission in order to describe our audience to
existing and prospective sponsors or other third parties. However,
this aggregate information does not reference names, e-mail
addresses, or other personally identifiable information, and it is
not traceable to a specific recipient or e-mail address.
Security, Storage and Retention
Personal information collected by AdvancePierre Foods is stored in
reasonably secure operating environments that are not available to
the public. We are dedicated to maintaining the security of such
information and will retain it only for so long as necessary to
fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with
applicable laws. However, no data transmission over the Internet
can be guaranteed 100% secure. We cannot ensure or warrant the
security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at
your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best
efforts to ensure its security on our systems. We will notify you
immediately if any breach of our security system affects you by
sending an e-mail notice to you within 5-7 days of our discovery
of any such breach.
Cookies
We may place a text file called a "cookie" in the browser files of
your computer or use other technology to improve your navigation
of this Site. The cookie itself does not contain your personal
information, although it will enable us to relate your use of this
Site to information that you have specifically and knowingly
provided to us. You may be able to set your browser to reject
cookies, but then you may be unable to access certain areas of
this Site or may not be able to customize this Site’s features.
Some of our business affiliates, partners, and sponsors
independently may use cookies, to tell when you have contacted
their Web site. Because we do not control the privacy policies of
our business affiliates, partners, sponsors or any other sites to
which we may provide links, you should check the privacy policy of
the site that you are visiting if you have any concerns about that
site’s use of cookies or other data gathering devices.
Children
We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children
under 13 years old through the Site. However, if the parent or
guardian of a child under 13 believes that the child has provided
us with personal information, the parent or guardian of that child
should contact our Privacy Compliance Officer through the contact
information provided below if they want this information deleted
from our files. If we obtain knowledge that we have personal
information about a child under 13 in retrievable form in our
files, we will delete that information from our existing files. In
addition, anyone under 18 years old should seek their parent’s or
guardian’s permission prior to using or disclosing any personal
information on the Site.

located on this Site, including the Web sites of business
affiliates, partners, sponsors or other sites. This privacy policy

privacy policy at each such site.
