Information Collected By Automated Means — We may use cookies, web beacons/pixel tags, log files, and other technologies to collect certain information about visitors to our Website, use of our online features, and interactions with our emails and online advertisements. For example, through these means, we may collect your browser type and operating system, viewed web pages, links that are clicked, IP address, sites visited before coming to our Website, emails we send that you open, forward, or click through to our Website. Collecting the foregoing information, and linking it with your Personally-Identifiable Information, helps us to best tailor our Website to you and enhance your online experience by saving your preferences while you are visiting a particular page, and to help identify Website features, recipes, advertisements, and offers that may be of particular interest to you.

Some of these advertisers and ad networks also may use anonymous data, such as demographic data, received from third parties to assist in the delivery of advertisements to you. These advertisers and ad networks use the information described above to provide you relevant advertisements based on your online behavior, search activities on our Website and on other third party sites, to provide demographic information and/or information relevant to your general location, so that the advertising you see on our Website more closely reflects your interests and needs. For example, if you search for or browse a recipe or product on our Website, you may see an advertisement from a third party with information about, or an offer similar to, that for which you were searching or browsing on our Website, or an offer related to a third party whose site you have visited in the past.

SHARING OF INFORMATION
Personally-Identifiable Information — We may share your Personally-Identifiable Information among our various businesses and brands within Eagle and its subsidiaries. We may provide your Personally-Identifiable Information to third parties who provide services on our behalf. For example, we use an outside shipping company to fulfill orders, and a credit card processing company to bill for goods. We use other third parties to provide promotions, contests, newsletters, and hosting for our Website. These service providers are permitted to use your Personally-Identifiable Information solely in conjunction with the specific services they provide for us. These service providers are not authorized to use, share, retain or store your Personally-Identifiable Information for any other purpose. We may conduct joint promotions with other companies, and may share with these promotional partners (and their service providers) Personally-Identifiable Information necessary to conduct the promotion. We may also use and disclose Personally-Identifiable Information where we think, in our sole discretion, that it is necessary to investigate or prevent actual or expected fraud, or criminal activity, or injury or damage to us or others, including without limitation when requested or required by law enforcement or government officials. We will not share Personally-Identifiable Information with unaffiliated third parties. For California residents, please see Opting Out, below.
Aggregate Information (Non-Personally-Identifiable) — We may share aggregated demographic information about our user base with our partners and advertisers who perform services on our behalf.

We do not link aggregate user data with Personally-Identifiable Information.
OPTING OUT

Be sure to click “Update Profile” for the changes to become effective.
For California Residents — We may share your Personally-Identifiable Information with affiliated third parties, some of which do not share the name of Eagle, for their own direct marketing purposes.
