4. How We Collect and Use Your Personal Data. The personal data we collect about you and how we use it depends on the context of your interactions with Inspired Taste, the Site, and our Services. We collect the following personal data:

4.1. Personal data we collect directly from you. We collect personal data directly from you with your consent when you leave a comment, use interactive features on the Site, or communicate with us. If you leave a comment on the Site, we collect your name, email address, and IP address to confirm that the comment originated from a Site user and not a bot or automated spam generator. If you submit an inquiry through our Site, subscribe to a service, register to receive marketing materials, participate in contests, sweepstakes or promotions, or use our Services, we may ask you to provide personal data such as your name, email address, phone number, and zip code.

We use the personal data we collect directly from you to communicate with you about Inspired Taste and our Services and for marketing purposes, such as:

• Sending you email and newsletter communications;
• Responding to your inquiries;
• Sending you surveys and quality assurance communications;
• Analyzing preferences, trends, and statistics;
• Informing you of our new products, services, and offers; and
• Providing you with marketing information about Inspired Taste.

We will only contact you in ways compatible with your communication choices. However, even if you have opted out of marketing communications, we may contact you to address questions or issues about the services you have requested.

We may supplement the personal data we collect from you with information about you obtained from third-party sources. Aggregate information that is linked or linkable to your personal data will be treated as personal data under this Privacy Notice.

4.2. Payment information. Inspired Taste does not collect or maintain any payment information. You will never be asked to provide payment information in connection with our Services.

4.3. Personal data collected from your use of the Site. Inspired Taste uses analytics tools to collect personal data from you and automatically perform data analysis, identify Site and Services usage trends, develop and display content and advertising tailored to your interests or location, and measure the effectiveness of our marketing efforts and our Services. We may use and store this personal data (including combining it with other personal data you submit to us), and any reports we generate using this information, in an anonymized form or in the aggregate such that it is not associated with you and does not include personal data.

4.4. Log files. We collect technical information from your computer, including your internet protocol address (specifically your general geolocation data; we do not collect precise geolocation data), data about your computer or other device, the type of browser or operating system your device uses, the version of the Site you use, and the address of any linking site, when you visit the Site. We use this information for statistical purposes, to ensure that our pages appear and function properly on your device, to determine how you were referred to our Site, and to personalize your experience and conduct analyses and research to improve our products, services, and content. We also use third parties, such as Google Analytics, to collect and analyze information. We may sell, rent, or otherwise convey such information to a third party ; provided, however, that no sale, rental, or conveyance of such information shall be construed as authorizing any third party to scrape, harvest, or otherwise collect data from the Site, or to use any information as training data for any artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar system. If you do not agree with Inspired Taste or our Services Providers using or selling your anonymous and technical information as described, please see Section 7 below.

5. Disclosure of your personal data. We may share your personal data as follows:

Vendors that provide us with various services (collectively, “Service Providers”) may have access to your personal data while they are performing their contractual obligations. Examples of Service Providers we use include payment processors, data analytics companies, email delivery, web hosting services, customer service, and marketing services. We prohibit our Service Providers from selling or disclosing the personal data we provide, and we require all Service Providers to maintain commercially reasonable confidentiality standards to ensure the security of your personal data. These Service Providers include but are not limited to marketing companies, companies that host our Site or App, or provide IT services to support either, platforms we use to help us manage our data, and companies that assist us in processing job applications that you submit through our Site. The type of information that we provide to a Service Provider will depend on the purpose of the service that they provide to us. We do not authorize our Service Providers to use personal data or other information obtained from the Site as training data for any artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar system.
• With our Advertisers. We disclose personal data to Service Providers that are network advertisers, sponsors, and/or traffic measurement services (collectively, “Advertisers”) to enable Advertisers to serve targeted advertisements to you on the Site, or on other websites or platforms (e.g., social networking sites). Some Advertisers assist us with behavioral advertising by collecting and analyzing certain information when you visit our Site (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, content you interact with). These Advertisers typically use cookies or other technologies to personalize advertising and measure the effectiveness of their ads. Please read our Cookie Notice to learn more.
• With affiliates. We may disclose some or all of your personal data with our parent company, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under common control with us.
• With other third parties. We may disclose personal data to third parties (i) as part of a business transition (e.g. a merger or acquisition); (ii) to comply with law, a judicial proceeding, court order, or other legal process, or if we have a good faith belief that disclosure is necessary to comply with a civil, criminal, or regulatory inquiry, investigation, subpoena, or summons; (iii) if we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action against illegal activities, suspected fraud, potential threats to safety, violations of our Terms of Use or this Privacy Notice, or exercise or defend our legal claims; or (iv) where we have obtained your prior consent.

• As aggregated or deidentified information. We may share or sell aggregated, anonymous, or deidentified information about users for marketing, advertising, research, or other purposes, without restriction.  However, no disclosure of aggregated or deidentified information authorizes any third party to scrape, harvest, or otherwise collect data from the Site, or to use any information obtained from the Site as training data for any artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar system.

6. Security.

6.1. Data security. We treat your personal data with confidentiality. We minimize the personal data we store and employ commercially reasonable safeguards to maintain the security, confidentiality, and integrity of your information. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural security measures to safeguard your personal data. We regularly update and test our systems to improve the protection of your information and ensure its integrity. We educate our employees about the importance of confidentiality and privacy.

No transmission of data over the internet is 100% secure. While we employ reasonable measures to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will not defeat those measures and use nonpublic personal data for improper purposes. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures on the Site or for actions of third parties. The safety and security of your information also depend on you.

6.2. Social networking. If you access the Site from a social networking site (e.g., Facebook or Twitter), or if you agree to associate your account with us via a social networking site, we may also receive personal data about you from such social networking site. Our receipt of your personal data via a social networking site is governed by the terms of use and privacy policy of the social networking site. We may retain this information along with the information we collect from you directly.

6.3. Third party sites. This Privacy Notice applies only to information collected by Inspired Taste. We may provide links to third party websites from our Sites as a service to our users, but we have no ability to control, and we are not responsible for, the privacy and data practices of third party websites. When you click on links that take you to external websites, you will be subject to their privacy policies and not ours.

To opt-out, see: Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information in website footer.
• Opt-out of marketing communications from us, including promotions, surveys, and information about products and services that may interest you (e.g., clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of our emails).
