This Policy is subject to change. If we materially change our information retention or usage practices, we will let you know by posting the Policy changes here on the Site, and/or otherwise making you aware of the changes. Please refer to the “Effective Date” above to see when we last updated this Policy.

BY VISITING THIS SITE AND THE SERVICE, YOU UNEQUIVOCALLY AND UNAMBIGUOUSLY CONSENT TO OUR COLLECTING AND PROCESSING IN THE UNITED STATES THE INFORMATION THAT YOU VOLUNTARILY SUBMIT TO US. YOU ALSO AGREE THAT THE LAW OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNS OUR COLLECTING AND PROCESSING OF YOUR INFORMATION.
International Transfer
It is possible in the future that your information may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction. Our collection, storage and use of your information will at all times continue to be governed by this Privacy Policy. If you are located outside the United States and choose to provide information to us, we may transfer personal information to the United States and process it there.

Information Collected
We collect two types of information about persons who use our Services: (1) Information that you voluntarily provide to us; and (2) information that our Services automatically collect. We explain both below.
Personal Information That We Voluntarily Collect from You
Tasty Ribbon does not collect any Personal Information about you without your voluntary consent. You may either supply this information to Tasty Ribbon when you purchase goods through our Services, when you use the Services, when you complete a survey, when you create or update an account, when you request services, or otherwise when you explicitly submit it. Any information that you voluntarily provide to us is subject to this Privacy Policy.
The information that we may collect from you includes:
While Tasty Ribbon may ask you for payment card information in order to process orders, we use a third-party service provider to process that data. Tasty Ribbon does not routinely collect or store payment card or other financial information from you.
Our Services also collect “Non-Personal Information” from you. Non-Personal Information is information that, while it assists us to provide our services to you, does not identify you specifically. This includes information such as your gender, the types of products that you purchased, your user history, the type of device you used to access our Services and its operating system, the pages you accessed most frequently, how pages are used, applications downloaded, or search terms entered, among other data points.
Information That We Automatically Collect from You
Tasty Ribbon automatically tracks Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to collect information. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your device whenever you use the Internet.
Tasty Ribbon Services may also use web beacons, pixel tags, cookies, embedded links, and other commonly used information-gathering tools. These services enable us to recognize your computer when you log in so that we can tailor information to your liking. A “cookie” is a small file containing a string of alphanumeric characters that uniquely identifies your browser. Cookies enable us to confirm that you have visited Tasty Ribbon previously, to keep track of the status of your account and shopping cart, and to perform other necessary functions on the Services. You can set up your browser to accept all cookies or notify you when a cookie is set. However, if you set your browser to disable all cookies, some features of our Services will not function properly.
Our Services may also use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies, to help us analyze how users use the Services. You may be able to opt-out of Google’s collection of information. Please visit Google’s Ads Preferences Manager or the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on for more information. Tasty Ribbon is not responsible for Google Analytics use of your information.
Your Access To and Control Over Information
You may opt out of any future contacts from us at any time. You can do the following at any time by contacting us via the email address or phone number given on our website:

When you leave our Services to visit another website or application, please read the privacy statements of websites that may collect personally identifiable information. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by Tasty Ribbon through the Services.
“Do Not Track” Signals
At the present time, outside of the Site, except as otherwise provided in this Policy, Tasty Ribbon does not track your movements over time and across third-party websites.

Security
We employ procedural and technical safeguards to keep your information secure, and protect it against loss, theft, alteration, and unauthorized access, use and disclosure. Tasty Ribbon uses a “Secure Sockets Layer,” or “SSL,” which is the industry standard security protocol for encrypting links between our Services and your browser. Our use of SSL ensures that the data that you transmit to us remains encrypted. We also employ other security procedures to protect your information from unauthorized access by users inside and outside the company.
Regardless of all of Tasty Ribbon’s precautions, no transmission of data over the Internet is ever completely secure. Third parties that we do not control may intercept or access transmissions or private communications unlawfully. While we strive to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.
