Welcome to the Internet site (this "Site") of Marathon Cheese Corporation ("Marathon Cheese"). Marathon Cheese wants you to know what information we learn about you when you visit this Site, what we do with that information and any other information you voluntarily provide us through this Site or by other means and how you can view or change the information we have. This Privacy Policy describes our information collection and use practices on this Site. It does not apply to information you might provide on another site operated by us, or one of our partners or affiliates.
Information Collected at This Site
There are two types of information that we can collect as you browse and use this site. Each type of information can be used in a different way.
- Internet-Related Information - generic statistical and demographic information that we gather passively from visitors to this Site.
- Personal Information that you provide when registering, or making contact with us.
Internet-Related Information Gathered Passively
We collected Internet-Related Information from visitors to our Site, including the referring URL, your IP address, which browser you used to come to this Site, the country, state, the pages of our Site that you viewed during your visit and any search terms entered on our Site. We collected Internet-Related Information from some Site pages and HTML-formatted e-mail messages using pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs or other similar technology. These may be used to track the actions of Site users and e-mail recipients, measure the success of Marathon Cheese marketing campaigns and compile statistics about Site usage and response rates. In certain circumstances, Internet-Related Information may also be considered Personal Information.
Internet-Related Information is gathered for purposes of system administration, broad demographic information, and to monitor the level of activity on our Site. We track visitors' traffic patterns throughout their online sessions, including which pages or specific URLs a visitor views while using this Site. We use your Internet-Related Information to diagnose problems with our servers and software and to administer our Site. We may share aggregated statistics about pages viewed on our Site and sales and other shopping information with third parties, but such information is not considered Personal Information as it will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity.
Actively Collected Personal Information You Provide
If you provide information about yourself by registering on a page or otherwise voluntarily telling us about yourself or your activities, we will collect and use that Personal Information to respond to your request, and for other business purposes, including identifying consumer preferences and improving our products and services and the content of this Site. We will only use your Personal Information when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your Personal Information in the following circumstances: (1) where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you; (2) where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests; and (3) where we need to comply with a legal obligation. We may also contact you by e-mail message, regular mail, fax, text message, or telephone from time to time with information about our new products and services, special offers, upcoming events and changes to this Site. If you do not wish to be contacted by all or any of these methods, you may let us know by contacting us. Please be sure to give us your exact name and address, and your detailed request so we can respond appropriately. We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your Personal Information with any third party for marketing purposes. You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by contacting us at any time.
We will only use your Personal Information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us.

Marathon Cheese will also assign, sell, license, or otherwise transfer to a third party your name, address, e-mail address, member name and any other Personal Information in connection with an assignment, sale, joint venture, or other transfer or disposition of a portion or all of the assets, business or stock of Marathon Cheese or any of its product lines.
