1. What Information About Me Is Collected and Stored?
Our privacy policy is simple: except as disclosed in this Policy, we will not sell, barter, give away or rent your personal information to any other company.
a. Personal Information. We do not collect your personally identifiable information (such as your name, email address, IP address, or demographic information) (“Personal Information”) solely as a result of you accessing or using our Site. We may collect Personal Information if you contact us with questions, comments, or order requests (“Submissions”).
b. Anonymous Information. When you interact with our Site, our servers may keep an activity log that does not identify you individually (“Anonymous Information”). For example, our servers may keep an activity log that tracks all visitors to the Site, such as the registered domain or home server, time of access, date of access, web page(s) visited, number of clicks, software crash reports, type of browser used, session identification number, search terms, search results, access times and referring website’s addresses.
c. Children Under Thirteen Years Old. Our Site is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under 13 years old. If you are under 13 years old, you should not use this Site, and under no circumstances should you send information about yourself to us.
d. Cookies and Spyware. We never use or install spyware on your computer, and we do not use spyware to retrieve Personal Information about you from your computer.
Like many websites, we do use “cookies”, which are small text files that are stored on your computer, mobile device, tablet or other technology (each a “Device”) when you visit certain online pages and that record your preferences. We may use cookies to track your use of our Site and its features. We use cookies to monitor traffic, improve our services, and to make our Site easier to use.

2. How Does BITE Use Information?
Personal Information you voluntarily provide to us through your Submissions may be used by BITE to respond to your Submissions; to communicate with you about our Site and products, services, and promotional offers; and to update our records. We may also use the Personal Information provided through your Submissions, as well as the Anonymous Information we collect, to prevent, detect, or report abuses of our Site, our Terms, or this Policy, and to enable third parties to perform technical, logistical, or other functions on our behalf.
BITE may use your email address or other Personal Information you voluntarily provide to us through your Submissions to send commercial and marketing messages, and market research related surveys and other offers to you. You have an opportunity to opt-out of any such emails by sending us an email at info@bitebrands.com with your request.
We also may use your email address for non-marketing administrative purposes (such as communicating with you regarding your Submission), and we may disclose your Personal Information or Anonymous Information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) conform to applicable law or comply with legal process served on us or the Site, (ii) protect and defend our rights or property, the Site, or our users, and (iii) under emergency circumstances to protect the personal safety of us, our affiliates, agents, Site users, or the public.
We use Anonymous Information to help us determine how people use our Site. We may also use Anonymous Information to provide statistical information in aggregated form to our affiliates or other third parties about how our users collectively use the Site. We may share Anonymous Information in any manner that we decide is appropriate or necessary.
3. When Does BITE Disclose Your Information?
We will not share your Personal Information with third-party companies for their own commercial or marketing use without your prior consent.
We may share Personal Information and Anonymous Information with our subsidiaries, affiliates, or other businesses or persons in connection with outsourcing technical functions or to perform other services on our behalf. We require these parties to agree to process such information in compliance with this Policy, and we use reasonable efforts to limit their use of such information and to use other appropriate confidentiality and security measures. Except as provided in this Policy, we do not disclose Personal Information to any companies not affiliated with us.
In the event of a sale of this Site, or some or all of our business, including by operation of law, we may disclose Personal Information to those involved in the transaction. If such an event occurs, we will strive to ensure that the recipient treat your Personal Information as described in this Policy.
We reserve the right to release Personal Information or Anonymous Information if required to do so by law, or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with state and federal laws, or to respond to a court order, subpoena, or search warrant. We also reserve the right to disclose Personal Information or Anonymous Information if we believe, in good faith, that such disclosure is appropriate or necessary to enforce our Terms or this Policy, to take precautions to avoid liability, to investigate and defend BITE against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, to protect the security or integrity of our website, and to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of BITE, our Site users, or the public.

5. Security.
While we use reasonable efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of your information, we are not liable for disclosure of any information due to errors in transmission or the unauthorized acts of third parties. No data storage system or transmission method is guaranteed to be 100% secure, and as a result, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you may supply.
