Your Consent to This Privacy Policy
By using our website, you signify that you agree with the terms of our
current Privacy Policy as posted in this area of the site. If you do
not agree with any term in this Policy, please do not provide any
Personal Information (defined below) on this site. If you choose not to
provide Personal Information on this site, you may not be able to do
certain things, like access particular areas of the site, enter a

Collection of Personal Information
As used in this Privacy Policy, "Personal Information" means personally
identifiable information such as your name, street address, telephone
number, credit card information, and email address. The site you
entered may collect some or all of these types of Personal Information.
Please be assured that Marin Chef will not collect any Personal
Information from your visits to our sites unless you provide this
information voluntarily. When you provide us with Personal Information,
you are authorizing us to use that information in accordance with the
terms of this Privacy Policy, which includes your right to limit our
use of the Personal Information as described in this Policy
The site you entered may also collect Personal Information from you
about a third party (e.g., the site might allow you to send an
electronic recommendation to a friend, in which case we will need that
person's name and e-mail address). Please note that we use such
information only for the specified purpose (e.g., to send the
recommendation) and we will not contact the third party again by e-mail
unless and until the third party contacts us.
How We Use Your Information
When you supply Personal Information at this website, we will use it
for the express purpose for which it was collected (e.g., to enter you
in a sweepstakes or to send your order). It may also be used by us to
contact you regarding other products and services which may be of
interest to you (including those we may offer jointly with other
companies). At any time, however, you may opt out of such future
contact (see "Who to Contact" below).
At times we may retain third parties to analyze data we collect on our
websites, including Personal Information, solely to help us improve our
products and our websites. In addition, if you order a product or
service from us, we may share Personal Information with suppliers and
other third parties to allow delivery of such product or service. These
suppliers and other third parties are not authorized by us to use your
Personal Information in any other way.
Finally, please note that we will release your Personal Information if
required to do so by law, or by search warrant, subpoena, or court
order.
Other Information We May Collect
You may have heard of "cookies," which are files or pieces of
information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard
drive. Marin Chef may use cookies to collect other information during
your visit to our website, such as the particular site areas you visit
and the products or services you buy through our website. We collect
this information to better tailor our site and our products to your
interests and needs. Cookies may also be used to help speed up your
future activities at our sites. For example, a site can recognize that
you have provided Personal Information to us and refrain from
requesting the same information a second time.
Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you'd prefer, you
can set yours to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being
sent. Refusal of cookies at the site you entered may result in an
inability to visit certain areas of the site or to receive personalized
information when you visit the site. In addition, we are constantly
trying to improve how we promote our websites. To help us do this, we
may measure the effectiveness of our web presence by determining what
you clicked on to get to our site.
Site measurement statistics may be used to personalize your website
experience, as well as to evaluate -- anonymously and in the aggregate --
statistics about usage of the website. Information about your computer,
such as your IP address (a number assigned to your computer whenever
you surf the Internet), the type of Internet browser you are using and
the type of computer operating system you are using may also be
collected and linked to your Personal Information. This is to ensure
that our websites present the best web experience for visitors, and
that they are an effective information resource. Some of the pages you
visit may also collect information through the use of pixel tags (also
called clear gifs) that may be shared with third parties which directly
support Marin Chef promotional activities and website development. For
example, website usage information about visitors to our websites may
be shared with our third party advertising agency in order to better
target Internet banner advertisements on Marin Chef website. The
information collected through the use of these pixel tags is not,
however, personally identifiable, although it could be linked to your
Personal Information.
Finally, we may supplement the information that you provided us with
other information that we receive from third parties. We do this for
marketing purposes in order to provide more targeted products and
service to meet your needs.
Security of Information
We take reasonable precautions to keep your Personal Information
secure. All personally identifiable information is subject to
restricted access to prevent unauthorized access, modification, or
misuse.
Changes in Our Policy
Marin Chef reserves the right to change or remove this Privacy Policy
at our discretion. We will post any new policy here and we encourage
you to visit this area frequently to stay informed.
