PRIVACY POLICY & LEGAL

Privacy Statement.
Your privacy is important to Venn Brewing Company LLC (“Venn”). This statement describes Venn’s information gathering and dissemination practices for our Web site www.vennbrewing.com (the “Site”), including the types of information we collect and how we use that information. We only obtain personally identifiable information (“personal information”) about you when you actively provide us with the information.

Personal Information
In general, you can visit our Site without telling us your name or revealing any personal information about your name, address, telephone number, or e-mail address. But, before you may enter our Site, you must represent that you are of legal age to consume alcoholic beverages in the United States.

In certain parts of the Site, we may ask you to provide your name or other personal information so that we can provide you with information you request, respond to feedback that you submit to the Site, allow you to participate in activities on the Site (for example, participating in one of our contests), or otherwise interact with the Site. We may also ask you for demographic data, including your preferred language or country of residence, to tailor your experience on the Site, display content customized to your preferences, and to otherwise administer the Site. You are under no obligation to provide us with this information, but, without it, we may not be able to fulfill some types of requests. If you do not want your personal information collected, simply do not submit it through the Site.

We make significant efforts to ensure that the personal information you provide to us remains secure. We will not sell, rent, or otherwise disclose the personal information you provide to us through the Site to parties outside of Venn or our advertising, promotional, and marketing agencies and consultants unless specified in this notice. We will disclose personal information if we are required to do so by law or have a good faith belief that the action is necessary to conform with existing laws or to cooperate with law enforcement agencies or in legal proceedings. In addition, if all or part of Venn is sold to, or merges with, another company, or declares bankruptcy, some or all of the information collected from you may be transferred to a third party as a result of the transfer of assets. Furthermore, we may use third-party contractors to help us operate our business and the Site or administer activities on our behalf, including contest administration and prize fulfillment, and may share your personal information with these contractors for those limited purposes.

We may share anonymous aggregated data with other companies that we do business with for market research purposes. For example, we may report to our advertising agency that a certain percentage of our Site’s users are United States residents between the ages of 30-35.

Data Collected Automatically

We may use this information to give you access to the Site, to tailor your experience on our Site, to display content customized to your preferences, and to otherwise administer the Site. We may also share this information with third parties in aggregate non-identifiable form.

Like many companies, we may store information on your computer in the form of a “cookie.” A cookie may tell us whether you have visited our Site before and what pages on our Site you have viewed. The cookies we use do not collect any personal information about you, provide us with any way to contact you, or extract any information from your computer. With most Internet browsers, you can erase cookies from your hard drive, block all cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored on your computer.

If you would prefer not to receive direct communications from us, you can opt out at the time of information collection. You may also send an e-mail to [email protected] with the word “UNSUBSCRIBE” in the subject line to opt out at any time.
