Commercial Purposes

We and certain third parties process Personal Information to further our commercial or economic interests (“Commercial Purposes”) depending on the context of collection and the rights and choices you may have under your applicable laws, as further described below.

Profiles: In order to understand our customers’ preferences, and better recommend products and services we may create a “Profile” by linking together and analyzing Personal Information collected in the various contexts described above. We may also augment Profiles with Personal Information that we create (such as Inference Data) or that we receive from our subsidiary companies or third parties, and may include Personal Information such as information about Services you have used or purchased previously, information about when you have visited our properties or locations in the past and what activities you participated in, and demographic data (which may, in some cases, include Race or Ethnic Origin Data we have received from third parties). We use Profiles to better understand our customers, and for market research and statistical analysis in connection with the improvement of our Services. For example, we may analyze the Personal Information of customers who have made a purchase in the past and compare them with other people in our database. If we identify customers in the database who have similar Personal Information, we may then target marketing about a similar offering to the new customer we have identified, for example by sending marketing emails. We may conduct the profiling and send the direct marketing emails automatically. We may also use this information for other Commercial Purposes. Profiles may involve processing that is automated, in whole or in part.

Personalized Marketing Communications: We may personalize marketing communications based on your Profile. If consent to Profiling or Targeted Advertising is required by law, we will seek your consent.

Targeted Advertising: In some jurisdictions, we and certain third parties operating on or through our Services, may engage in advertising targeted to your interests based on Personal Information that we or those third parties obtain or infer from you activities across non-affiliated websites, applications, or services in order to predict your preferences or interests (“Targeted Advertising”). This form of advertising includes various parties and service providers, including third party data controllers, engaged in the processing of Personal Information in connection with advertising. These parties may be able to identify you across sites, devices, and over time. The parties that control the processing of Personal Information for Targeted Advertising purposes may create or leverage information derived from personalization, Profiles, and marketing communications. In some cases, these parties may also develop and assess aspects of a Profile about you to determine whether you are a type of person a company wants to advertise to, and determine whether and how ads you see are effective. These third parties may augment your profile with demographic and other Inference Data, and may track whether you view, interact with, or how often you have seen an ad, or whether you purchased advertised goods or services. We generally use Targeted Advertising for the purpose of marketing our Services and third-party goods and services, to send marketing communications, including by creating custom marketing audiences on third-party websites or social media platforms. This may involve sharing limited data regarding our customers with social media platforms or other websites in order to determine which of their users appear to have interests or traits similar to our existing customers.

· Data “Sales” and “Sharing”: We might engage in “sales” or “sharing” of data as defined by applicable law. For example, we might “sell” certain Personal Information when we engage in marketing campaigns with or on behalf of third party partners, or we might “share” for behavioral advertising purposes, or grant access to Personal Information to our marketing partners and other advertisers in relation to Targeted Advertising, joint promotions, and other marketing initiatives. See the California Rights & Disclosures section for a list of categories of Personal Information sold or shared.

We may also disclose the information we collect to prevent or investigate a possible crime, such as fraud or identity theft, to protect the security of our Services, to enforce or apply our Additional Terms or other agreements; to notify affected individuals in the event of a product recall or other issue, or to protect our own rights or property or the rights, property or safety of our users or others.

As Described in a Supplemental Notice. We reserve the right to disclose the information we collect as described in any Supplemental Notice or other privacy notice posted on or in connection with our Services where you provide that information. By providing the information on that page you will be consenting to the disclosure of the information as described in that privacy notice, if any.

As Described in an Agreement. We reserve the right to disclose the information we collect as described in any agreement or Additional Terms.

Your Choices

We respect your right to make choices about the ways we collect, use and disclose the Personal Information we collect. In some cases, we will ask you to indicate your choices at the time we collect the information. For example, if you sign up for any of our emails or SMS notices, or register with certain Services, we provide you with an opportunity to “opt out” of receiving certain communications from us. In addition, we will include an “opt out” link in each electronic newsletter or other promotional e-mail we send you, so that you can inform us that you do not wish to receive such communications from us in the future. You may discontinue receiving our SMS alerts by taking the steps indicated in the SMS alert you received, by following instructions on our Service related to the specific campaign, or by using our data request form located here.

Some of our entities might occasionally “sell” your Personal Information as broadly defined by the CCPA (as defined below), or might “share” your Personal Information for cross-contextual behavioral advertising purposes, as defined by the CCPA. If you wish to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your Personal Information, please click here. If a California data subject exercises rights under California law, including but not limited to the CCPA, we shall not discriminate against that California resident by denying our goods or services, charging different prices or rates to similarly situated consumers, providing a different level or quality of our goods or services, or taking any other adverse action.

Your Privacy Rights – Regional Supplements

Depending on the state or country in which you reside, you may have certain rights related to your Personal Information. For example, if you are a resident of the state of California, under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), or under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) or other applicable laws, you may have additional privacy rights as described in this section.

You may either contact us directly regarding your request, or you may have authorized a representative to act on your behalf according to the procedures required in your jurisdiction.

We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request, and this verification may depend on the type of request you are making, but in some cases, under applicable law, we may be prohibited from doing so. Please see Verifying Data Requests below.

California Rights:

If you are a resident of California, your rights may include the following:

Right to Know - Categories: You may request any of following, for the 12 month period preceding your request: (1) the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you, or that we have sold, or disclosed for a Commercial Purpose; (2) the categories of sources from which your Personal Information was collected; (3) the business or Commercial Purpose for which we collected or sold your Personal Information; and (4) the categories of third parties to whom we have sold your Personal Information, or disclosed it for a business purpose. For a table listing these categories, please see below. Please note that the CCPA’s right to obtain copies does not grant a right to the whole of any document that contains Personal Information, but only to copies of “specific pieces” of Personal Information. Moreover, you have a right to know categories of sources of Personal Information and categories of external recipients to which Personal Information is disclosed, but not the individual sources or recipients. Company does not always track individualized sources or recipients.

Specific Pieces of Information: You may request a copy of the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you since January 1, 2022. You may, upon request, receive this information in a reasonably available portable format

Right to Delete: You have the right to delete certain Personal Information that we hold about you, subject to exceptions under applicable law.

Right to Rectification: If we maintain inaccurate Personal Information about you, you have the right to request that we correct it.

Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information: To the extent we use or disclose Sensitive Personal Information (as defined by applicable law), you may have the right to limit the usage and disclosure of such information (except as described in the statute).

Direct Marketing: You may request a list of Personal Information we have disclosed about you to third parties for direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year.

Opt-Out of Sale: If we engage in “sales” of your Personal Information (as defined by applicable law), you may direct us to stop selling Personal Information to third parties for Commercial Purposes.

Opt-Out of Sharing: If we engage in “sharing” of your Personal Information for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes, you may direct us to stop selling Personal Information to third parties for Commercial Purposes.

Minors: To the extent we have actual knowledge that we collect or maintain Personal Information of a minor under age 16, those minors between the age of 13 and 16 must opt in to any sales of Personal Information (as defined under CCPA), and minors under the age of 13 must have a parent consent to sales of Personal Information (as defined under CCPA); all minors have the right to opt-out later at any time.

Online Posts by Minors: Individuals under the age of 18 in California can delete or remove posts using the same deletion or removal procedures described above, or otherwise made available through the Services. If you have questions about how to remove your posts or if you would like additional assistance with deletion you can contact us. We will work to delete your information, but we cannot guarantee comprehensive removal of that content or information posted through the Services.

Exercising California Rights:

If you wish to exercise your California privacy rights, please either:

Visit thislink to access our data request form
Call us at (855) 937-0312
Or email us at Privacy@landolakes.com if your request is not within the form.

We will respond to you within a reasonable time and, in any case, within the time limits established by applicable law. We may ask you for additional information to verify your identity. In most cases, we will honor your request. In some cases, however, we may limit or deny your request if the law permits or requires us to do so or if we are unable to verify your identity, where permitted by law.

GDPR/European Rights:

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area, including the UK and Switzerland, or otherwise subject to the GDPR, the controller of your Personal Information is Land O’Lakes, Inc. and your rights may include the following:

· Access

: You may have a right to access the Personal Information we process.

· · Rectification

: You may correct any Personal Information that you believe is inaccurate.

· · Deletion

: You may request that we delete your Personal Information. We may delete your data entirely, or we may anonymize or aggregate your information such that it no longer reasonably identifies you.

· · Data Export

: You may request that we send you a copy of your Personal Information in a common portable format of our choice.

· Restriction

: You may request that we restrict the processing of Personal Information to what is necessary for a lawful basis.

· Objection

: You may have the right under applicable law to object to any processing of Personal Information based on our legitimate interests. We may not cease or limit processing based solely on that objection, and we may continue processing where our interests in processing are appropriately balanced against individuals’ privacy interests. In addition to the general objection right, you may have the right to object to processing: (I) for Profiling purposes; (II) for direct marketing purposes (we will cease processing upon your objection); and (III) involving automated decision-making with legal or similarly significant effects (if any).

Regulator Contact: You have the right to file a complaint with regulators about our processing of Personal Information. To do so, please contact your local data protection or consumer protection authority.

Verifying Data Requests

Other than requests to opt-out of sale/sharing or limit use of Sensitive Personal Information under the CCPA, any consumer request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative thereof.

Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

If we cannot verify your identity or authority to make applicable data requests, we will not be able to process your request or provide you with any Personal Information, except where identify verification is prohibited by law. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

We may decline to process consumer requests that are frivolous, jeopardize the privacy of others, are impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required by local law. We may also decline aspects of deletion or access requests if we believe doing so would undermine our legitimate use of the Personal Information for anti-fraud and security purposes as described earlier, or for other reasons as permitted by applicable law. Once a consumer request is either confirmed or denied, an email notification will be sent to the email submitted as part of the consumer request.

If an authorized agent submits a request to know, correct or delete on your behalf, the authorized agent must submit with the request either (a) a power of attorney that is valid under the state in which you reside, or (b) a document signed by you that authorizes the authorized agent to submit the request on your behalf. Authorized agents may follow the applicable process described above for verifying your identity.

Steps We Take to Safeguard Information

We maintain reasonable administrative, physical and technological measures to protect the confidentiality and security of Personal Information you submit on or through our Services. Unfortunately, no website, server or database is completely secure and we cannot guarantee that your Personal Information or other information will not be disclosed, misused or lost by accident or by the unauthorized acts of others.

Children Under the Age of Thirteen

Our Services are not intended for anyone under 13 years of age. No one under age 13 may provide any Personal Information on our Services. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from anyone under 13 years of age. If you are under 13 years of age, do not use or provide any information on our Services. If we learn that we have collected or received Personal Information from a person under 13 years of age without verification of parental consent and supervision, we will delete such Personal Information. If you believe that a person under 13 years of age has submitted Personal Information on or through any of our Services without the consent and supervision of a parent or guardian, please contact us at Privacy@landolakes.com.

Our Services may contain links to websites operated by other organizations, including but not limited to websites operated by our third-party service providers and other third parties. For example, if you click on an advertisement on a Site, you may be taken to a website that we do not control. We may also host or operate websites as a service for retailers or our other partners. This Notice does not apply to information collected on any of these third-party websites. When you access third-party websites through a link on our Services, please take a few minutes to review the privacy policy posted on that website.

This Notice May Change

This Notice describes our current policies and practices with regard to the information we collect through our Services.

We are continually improving and adding to the features and functionality of our Services along with the products and services we offer through our Services. As a result of these changes (or changes in the law), we may need to update or revise this Notice. Accordingly, we reserve the right to update or modify this Notice at any time, without prior notice, by posting the revised version of this Notice behind the link marked “Privacy Notice” at the bottom of each applicable page of our Services. Your continued use of any of our Services after we have posted the revised Notice constitutes your agreement to be bound by the revised Notice. In addition, we will provide you with notice of proposed new uses of collected information as may be required by applicable law.

For your convenience, whenever this Notice is changed, we will also alert you by posting a notice on our home page. We will also update the “Effective Date” at the top of this page. If significant time has elapsed since your last visit to our Services, be sure you check the Effective Date to see if this Notice has been revised since your last visit.

Data Retention

We will keep the Personal Information we collect for as long as reasonably necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes set forth in this Notice or any other notice provided at the time of data collection, or as long as required by applicable law.

Where required, we will dispose of the Personal Information we collect when we no longer need it for the purposes described in this Notice or any other notice provided at the time of data collection, in accordance with Land O’Lakes retention policies and procedures.

We retain the Personal Information we collect for different periods of time depending on what it is, how we use it, and how you configure your settings. For example:

Some data you can delete whenever you like, such as the content you create or upload.
Some data is deleted or anonymized automatically after a set period of time.
Some data we retain for longer periods of time when necessary for legitimate business or legal purposes, such as security, fraud and abuse prevention, or financial record-keeping.

We generally consider the following factors when we determine how long to retain data (without limitation):

Retention periods established under applicable law;
Industry best practices;
Whether the purpose of processing is reasonably likely to justify further processing;
Risks to individual privacy in continued processing;
Applicable data protection impact assessments;
IT systems design considerations/limitations; and
The costs associated continued processing, retention, and deletion.

We will review retention periods periodically and may pseudonymize or anonymize Personal Information held for longer periods.
