Sokerol Global Internet Privacy Policy

Sokerol respects your right to privacy. This policy summarizes what personally identifiable information we may collect and how we might use this information. This policy also describes other important topics relating to your privacy.

It is Sokerol policy to comply with all applicable privacy and data protection laws. This commitment reflects the value we place on earning and keeping the trust of our employees, customers, business partners and others who share their personal information with us.

This Global Internet Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) describes how Sokerol protects your privacy when we collect personal information on Sokerol Internet web sites (‘Web Sites’). As used in this Policy, the term “personal information” means information that identifies you personally, alone or in combination with other information available to us.

This Policy applies, in general, to all Web Sites operated by or on behalf of Sokerol and its business units worldwide (each a “Web Site”).

 

Web Site Privacy Statements

Although this Policy applies to all Web Sites generally, each Web Site has a different purpose and different features. If additional or different disclosures are required with respect to a specific Web Site, we will provide those disclosures on the Web Site itself or in a separate web site privacy statement (“Web Site Privacy Statement”) posted on that Web Site. Each individual disclosure or Web Site Privacy Statement supplements and amends this policy, but only with respect to the Web Site on which it is posted.

 

Your Consent

By using a  Web Site or providing personal information to us, you are consenting to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Policy and any applicable Country or Web Site Privacy Statements.

If you do not consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Policy (and any applicable Country or Web Site Privacy Statements), do not use Web Sites, registration or Contact Sokerol / Contact Us forms.

Information Collected on or by way of Web Sites and How It May Be Used

When you access and use a Web Site, there are three ways we may collect information about you:

  1. 1.       Information Sent to Us by Your Web Browser

Sokerol collects information that is sent to us automatically by your web browser. This information typically includes the IP address of your Internet service provider, the name of your operating system (such as Macintosh® or Windows®) and the name and version of your browser (such as Internet Explorer® or Chrome®). The information we receive depends on the settings on your web browser. Please check your browser if you want to learn what information your browser sends or how to change your settings.

The information provided by your browser does not identify you personally. We use this information to create statistics that help us improve our Web Sites and make them more compatible with the technology use by our Internet visitors.

  1. 2.     Information Collected By Placing a “Cookie” On Your Computer

Sokerol may obtain information about you by installing a “tag” on your computer’s hard drive. This tag is known as a “cookie.”

All of our Web Sites use “session cookies.” A session cookie is used to tag your computer with a computer-generated, unique identifier when you access our site. A session cookie does not identify you personally and expires after you close your browser. We use session cookies to collect statistical information about the ways visitors use our sites – which pages they visit, which links they use, and how long they stay on each page. We analyze this information (known as “clickstream data” in statistical form to better understand our visitors’ interests and needs to improve the content and functionality of our sites.

Some of our Web Sites may also use “persistent cookies.” These cookies do not expire when you close your browser; they stay on your computer until you delete them. By assigning your computer a unique identifier, we are able to create a database of your previous choices and preferences, and in situations where these choices or preferences need to be collected again, they can be provided by us automatically, saving you time and effort. For example, after you make a purchase, if you decide to make another purchase, your shipping address will have been retained and will only need to be confirmed. It is to be assumed by you unless otherwise stated in the Privacy Statement posted on a Web Site, that all Sokerol Web Site use “persistent cookies”.

If you do not wish to receive cookies, you may set your browser to reject cookies or alert you when a cookie is placed on your computer. Although you are not required to accept cookies when you visit a Web Site, you may be unable to use all of the functionality of the site if your browser rejects our cookies.

  1. 3.       Information You Knowingly and Voluntarily Provide

In many cases this information will be personal information.

Sokerol uses this information for the purposes for which you provide it. For example, if you provide your e-mail address when you sign up to receive e-mail alerts, or register and interest or secure a login , we use your e-mail address to deliver the e-mail alerts you request and to avail you of the services and access that you have  registered for or sought.
