Privacy Policy

1. Our Policy.

Eat by Numbers respects and understands our website users' concerns about confidentiality and privacy, and we take reasonable steps to ensure that any information you give us is handled in a safe and responsible manner. Because of our respect and understanding of your privacy, we have developed this policy, which discloses the privacy practices of Eat by Numbers and describes the information we collect about you during your use of our site and services and what use we may make of that information.

It is important to remember that by using our site, you agree to the terms of this policy. Because the technology in this area is expanding and improving at such a rapid pace, we suggest that you refer to this policy on a regular basis as it may change, at any time in Eat by Numbers sole discretion, in order to allow us to take advantage of any technological advances or for business purposes or legal reasons.

2. Information That We May Collect.

We collect your information in different areas of our site. The exact information collected varies depending on the areas of our site that you use. We collect all information that you voluntarily disclose in the course of using our site. In the future, we may require certain information as dictated by the nature of the services that we may offer.

In the course of using our site, we automatically track certain information about you. This information includes the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on our site or not), which URL you go to next (whether this URL is on our site or not), what browser you are using, and your Internet Protocol (IP) address. Many sites automatically collect this information. We do not collect or use this information to create a profile about you. We also do not use “cookies” to store and collect your information, on any pages of our site.

3. Our Use of Your Information.

We internally use personally identifiable information to improve our services, to statistically analyze site usage, to improve our content, to customize our site's content and layout, and for other customer service purposes. We believe these uses allow us to improve our site and better tailor it to meet the needs of our users.

We may also use personally identifiable information to deliver information that, in some cases, is targeted to your interests, such as promotional e-mails, targeted banners, and promotions. If you supply us with your e-mail or mailing address, you may receive occasional mail from us announcing services, product information, promotional events or updates to our website. If you do not wish to receive such mailings, please contact us indicating your e-mail address or mailing address as applicable.

4. Our Disclosure of Your Information.

We do not sell, lend, or rent any personally identifiable information about you to any third party outside of Eat by Numbers, its affiliates, subsidiaries, authorized agents, operating companies, franchisees and other related entities. We only disclose information to third parties when it is reasonably necessary to allow us to perform services for, or deliver products or information to, you.

In the event our company is ever sold, we reserve the right to transfer ownership of our e-mail list and customer information to the acquiring company. Should this happen, we will instruct the new owners of the company to contact you via e-mail to notify you of the change.

We cooperate with all law enforcement inquiries and with all third parties to enforce the rights of others and all federal, state, or local laws or regulations. We can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials, including any government officials, as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate.

Unfortunately, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personally identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), third parties may unlawfully intercept or access files, transmissions, or private communications. Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable information or private communications will always remain private.

5. Third Party Collectors of Information.

Our policy only addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. To the extent that your information is disclosed to third parties, whether other users of the site, service providers, advertisers, or other sites throughout the Internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the personal information you disclose to them. These third parties adhere to their own privacy customs and policies. Because we do not control the privacy policies of third parties, you are subject to the privacy customs and policies of that third party. We do not make any representations or warranties as to how such third parties may use your information.

6. Contacting the Site.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, or if you would like to change or remove your personal information, you can contact us.
