We collect information on or through our website that can personally identify you but this will only occur when such information is voluntarily offered by you. In short, when you visit our website or interactive advertisements, we will not collect any personal information about you (such as your name, home address, telephone number, e-mail address, or credit card information) unless you provide it to us voluntarily. If you decide not to provide us with personal information, you can still access our website but you may be unable to access certain advanced features, or receive product information offered through our website or interactive advertisements.
Our website sometimes include information about promotions that we are offering individually or jointly with one or more other parties, and we may allow you to enter electronically in some cases. If that occurs, we will use the information you provide for the purpose of conducting the event (for example, to notify you if you have won) and, when we have your consent, to offer you products and services of Fruit Ranch and our joint event sponsors. In addition, we may also collect demographic and other data for advertising, promotion, and market research purposes.
At our website you may have an option to express an opinion, subscribe to one of our newsletters, or participate in one of our online promotions. These programs require you to submit some information in order to participate. Fruit Ranch may occasionally ask visitors to complete opinion polls or surveys to assess consumer interests, needs, and attitudes. Surveys help us provide better products and services that meet customer needs. Participation is completely voluntary and these surveys are optional.
If you provide feedback on your experiences with our products or otherwise submit questions to our consumer service representatives, you may be asked to supply personal information for purposes of record-keeping and response.
Fruit Ranch may also collect information about the products you view or features that you access, for example when you visit different parts of our site or applications and what selections you make on them. We may also collect device-specific information (such as your device hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile information if you use a mobile device to access the site). We may use cookies when you visit many of our website pages. For instance, when you visit one of our websites, our web server will automatically recognize some non-personal information, such as the date and time you visited our website, the pages you visited, the referrer (that is, the website you came from), the type of browser you are using, the type of operating system you are using, and the domain name and address of your Internet service provider, but importantly, our cookies do not collect or contain personal information such as your name or e-mail address.
